Don't let bad reviews drag you down. And don't let good reviews make you think you've made it and don't need to grow as a writer. #pubtip

As a 1st time #PitchWars mentor, I’m grateful to everyone who subbed to me. This decision was tough, & as much about goodness of fit (1/22)

Lovely #pitchwars thread here, and good advice for staying positive while querying agents as well! #amwriting #pubtip
