I’m not doing #BluePit today because I’m still pretty sick and trying to save my spoons for client work, but some stuff is crossing my feed. If I liked your pitch, you can submit your query to me at querytracker.net/query/ThaisA...

Hey, Sydette needs help. She is one of the people who makes the world brighter and better simply by existing. If you have the capacity, please consider dropping her what you can.

The first 50 pages (we can't fix that in QM, it's just a default). Looking forward to reading!!

Thais Afonso @thaisafonso.bsky.social · 5d

Oh, good! If it's already in my inbox, I should get to it soon!

Hi, Nandini. If the revisions were not significant, I think it's better not. Clearly, I love the pitch. So I imagine I didn't connect with pages previously.

Doing another pass today because yesterday was so, so busy at the day job.

How evil must one be to intercept a benign aid ship on its way to innocents gripped by famine & bombs? It should be extremely clear to the world that these genocidaires are very intentional in their aim to starve Palestinians. Solidarity with the flotilla. They’re the best of us.

If you're looking to buy an apartment in NYC or know someone who is...

We are finally selling our Queens studio, and we'd love to keep it in the Bluesky family!

This is the listing, feel free to share widely:
