This is the kind of thing I do to distract myself from the excitement of amazing agents who currently have my full manuscripts. How do you distract yourself?

My chronic illness has been flaring up and I simply do not have the spoons for a pitch event. I will not be pitching tomorrow, though I'm pretty excited with the agents who currently have my projects, and I will do my best to support my wonderful author friends! #QuestPit

I received another R&R recently, and I finally figured out how to put it into action! I'm so excited to see if they'll like it when I'm done!!

Revisions have been completed and sent to the requesting agent, but I'm curious if I should reach out to the other agents with my full... Would they want the updated pages, or is reaching out just annoying?

I was a foolish fool and had way more to do than originally planned... I'm over halfway through revisions, though!!
Tackled the biggest/ most difficult change of my revision, so the rest will go quickly and smoothly, right?

I'm down to one last edit for my cozy story! Then I'll write some more of my WIP (Frankenstein x White Lotus if it were directed by Jordan Peele) and give it another full read before sending it back!! Think a two week turn around seems suspiciously fast for an R&R?

Are there better vibes than stock simmering on the stove, rain pattering against summer leaves through an open window, and a bit of time to start chapter one of a new project?

Throwing my WIP outline into an excel because it makes the most sense in my brain. Does anyone else do it this way, or am I just a weirdo? Maybe it's both?

I changed my WIP to my RHPS X Glass Onion X Get Out X White Lotus X Frankenstein idea
I know that's a lot of comps, but I promise it will all make sense.

I thought I was set on my Spy vs Spy with dystopian elements WIP, but now that I'm a chapter in I'm wondering if I should go with my macabre, modern Frankenstein retelling... or maybe a third option from my idea folder...
