I’m wondering if you ever going to make one event in TikTok. You were right saying the readers are in Instagram. But also in TikTok. Not a fan of the platform but maybe writers can also connect there. ✨ I enjoyed a lot #1stlinepit I got to follow so many authors ❤️
To fill the void #1stLinePit created, I'm launching a new Insta-only pitch event! 🤩
Head on over and check out #WriterPit
"Most people had no need to hide. They chattered freely, spilling laughter, secrets, and promises. They rode in steam carriages with the tops down, their bare faces tilted toward the sun. They lived without fear. But I wasn’t most people, and I’d forgotten to check my face." @neferdoane
Here are the opening lines for ✨A HARBINGER OF DARKNESS✨
I had such a great time participating in #1stlinepit (on IG). It was a lovely way to meet more authors, read so many amazing opening lines, and to support each other. ❤️

Today is a rough one in the query trenches so here’s a pretty graphic I made for #1stlinepit last week and didn’t share
#amquerying #querywoes
Until she stooped to turn his body over, she had not been scared. She'd felt nothing but anger because he’d done this once too often and enough was enough. All evening she had mingled with the other guests, smiling woodenly and downing far too many glasses of champagne while her husband rollicked around and made a fool of himself. And of her.
Also sharing my #1stLinePit #WIP
GLASS ONION x MISS CONGENIALITY
Mistaken for her fashion model friend, a reporter plays along. But she's not the only one pretending. She must uncover what's going on, try not to get killed, and definitely NOT fall for the man she's fake-dating.

When she hears the footsteps behind her she doesn't rise from the lounger or look round but just rolls her eyes and takes another gulp of wine, fixing her gaze ahead. Beyond the villa's perimeter wall where the wooded slopes fall away, the sea glimmers under the silver coin of a moon. 'I told you to leave,' she says, her voice slurred. 'It's over. There's nothing more to say.' 'I have plenty to say.' Her head whips round then. She smiles.
HAPPY SEPTEMBER!
I know #1stLinePit was 2 days ago but wanted to share my post here.

Bringing #1stLinePit to Instagram was a success!
So many people found new followers, grew their author accounts, and had their pitch showered with likes and encouragement. Thank you to every single one who participated! ❤️
Full disclosure: I tweaked my opening line for #1stlinepit so I believe it's as sharp as it could ever be. Will do another round of queries for agents opening in Sep, but it might be the last hurrah. Next month marks two years in the trenches! #WritingCommunity #amquerying

Graphic with the words: First Lines of Daughter of the Eyolas Tree Without looking up from reading her textbook, Alina Kavenaugh reached forward and lifted her open water bottle into the air, just seconds before a pair of trays landed on the dining hall table in front of her. Unfazed by the loud entrance, she finished reading the sentence before turning her violet eyes to look up at her room-mate, raising an eyebrow as she did.
Graphic with the words: Between attending pre-med class. diving practice, and completing course work, Alina Kavenaugh doesn't have time to decipher the meaning behind her reoccurring dream of a strange places and mysterious people. But after she is accidentally pulled into the university diving pool, Allie finds herself in Uain — a different world where her violet eyes identify her as a Seer, a dangerous race of individuals that can see the past, present and future. And who haven't been seen for the past 200 year. Now in the custody of the handsome young King DeVon, she must search for a way home while also unraveling i mysterious threat to the crown, and the history of her own lineage.

"Nico Thatcher to the office please. Nico Thatcher to the office please." I switch off the PA system and turn back to Mrs. Thatcher in her powder pink workout set and oversized black Prada sunglasses. She spins her car keys around her fingers impatiently.
