"It's your #GirlBoss J. Gatz. Come get ready w/me before brunch @ WestEggCafe. 🥂"

A Gatsby remix but she's Black , Fine, and Famous. Think race +gender bent glam with influencer culture, Black girl luxury, and a splash of ATL

All Of The Lights

“Casting is directing. And I got that in spades.
Truth is, I’m the best god damn director in Hollywood. They just haven’t seen it yet. All I need is a camera.”

Hollywood’s favorite casting director. Melinda Reyes’ worst decision.

All of The Lights:

Cuban. Catholic. Closeted.

But Eddie Vega still gave you face and 15 million viewers.

Rico & The Crew, S2 Ep14: “Rico Double Books"

Rico flirts. Rico loves women.

Eddie kisses his boyfriend backstage.

Cue laugh track.

So can I consider this a silent pass or is it feasible to be in the "maybe pile" for 55 days?

And in case you're wondering, made these in photoshop. I taught myself when I used to make images for my fanfic during my fanfic days.
Work on my WIPs?
Nope.
Make a fake poster for the movie my MC didn't really want to be in, but did anyway because her manipulative POS boyfriend convinced her to do it, yep.
Meanwhile, her bestie, closeted Cuban-American actor, Eddie Vega, is TV's new heartthrob.

Good morning!

In spite of those two back to back rejections, I reminded myself to push through the negative self-talk and doubt and write. Last night, an idea came to me. This morning, I started my third manuscript. The words flew from my fingertips. #amwriting #amquerying #writingcommunity

I'm trying not to feel bad for not writing fantasy or romantasy. I wrote a story I wanted to read, but the silence and rejections are making me second guess myself.

This week, I’m letting my queries breathe.
Refreshing my inbox won’t make the replies come faster—and neither will burning myself out.
My mental health matters more than metrics.
Now I rest.

Should I try to write tonight or watch Sinners for the 50th time?

What is everyone reading this weekend? I've got my next mystery/thriller book club read purchased at The Book Cellar, a local independent book store.

What’s something writing has taught you about yourself?

For me: I’m more tender, more stubborn, and more hopeful than I ever realized.

Moment of transparency: I tried to be positive this morning, but rejection hurts. I spiraled for the rest of the day. Now I'm watching crime documentaries for comfort. I wonder what that says about me?

Describe your WIP like a messy ex. I'll go first:

Gorgeous, chaotic, and swore it had my best interest at heart. Turns out it was a cautionary tale with great cheekbones and a coke problem. 💋🎬💔💉

Me: Wondering if it's my query or pages.

Also me, after realizing the issue isn’t the writing. It's the pitch.

Thank you so much, this was actually incredibly helpful. 😅🙏🏾

Shoutout to the feedback that didn’t break me.
