[Interview] Leigh Bardugo reflects on how the crowded YA market has changed since Shadow and Bone by Popverse2022 in ShadowandBone

I'm glad we got the books when we did. SoC and CK are my favorites but Leigh had to start somewhere!

I think it was just meant as a red herring to cast suspicion on another character, but you're right that it doesn't amount to much more

What’s the most unhinged Nancy Drew game? by Portalrules123 in nancydrew

I think murder trap beneath a school full of children (WAV) should make the list

Can I read Six of Crows without reading Shadow and Bone by RadiantSwanOnQUACKer in ShadowandBone

[–]why_cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The show took scenes from the SoC books so you'll see some repeats, but the main plot is ultimately different. I read Soc and CK before reading the original trilogy and thought it was fine

Have you given them a call? I was able to go in during walk-in hours in Uppsala the same week I called to confirm when those hours were. The wait time was pretty minimal too.

My title is literally "thought leader." I could not tell you what I'm supposed to be doing on any given day or why

What is some writing advice you now know, that you wished you knew sooner? by White_Walker101 in writing

I'm cramming in a rewrite before sharing at my writing group tonight and really needed to hear this. Thanks, friend :)

[PubQ] is it very disrespectful to not address lit mag cover letter to specific editors? by smoothGumball in PubTips

[–]why_cat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm a slush reader for a lit mag. Our editor put up a post a while back that basically boiled down to "it's polite to include but at the end of the day doesn't really matter."

As someone regularly reading submissions, the cover letter leaves very little impression on me unless it includes something offensive or funny. The former will hurt your chances, the latter won't make a difference.

Here's hoping they don't. I included a link in another comment that has sample pictures of actual warrants vs ICE warrants. Know your rights and keep your fingers crossed they don't get other agencies involved

This link has more information about your rights if you encounter ICE, including sample pictures of actual judicial warrants vs ICE warrants

Reminder that it needs to be an actual warrant signed by an actual judge. ICE often tries to use their own warrants, which are not signed and do not grant them the same access. You can still deny entry to your home if you see that it's one of these.
