For real. “Highly editorial” agents too will be like “I truly liked this one but the pacing is just slightly off” like okay sounds like a small fixable issue and isn’t that where the “highly editorial” part comes in??? But alas, no 😩

YOURE HERE!!!! So good to see you somewhere other than X 😄

Yaaassss! I welcome our new overlords!

Apparently? And editors/publishers have REALLY big feelings about it.

I also feel like it would be more practical and they’d spend less time sifting through things that weren’t a fit for them.

Like this bio I’m reading details the time they’ve traveled abroad but says nothing about their interests or experience. I’d be roasted to death if I just sent a query to an agent telling them about my recent vacay in Mexico.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

Thank you!! That’s all I was needing to know 😂 I appreciate you being here!

Mostly what I wanna do is make a master brine for pickling that I can use on several things so I’m thinking 3/4 of it would be 5% acidity white vinegar, and 1/4 of it water. In the jars I would put my vegetables and spice them individually with dry spices (peppercorns, mustard seeds etc)-
