“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.

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.

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 got 7 books in total for 5.99 each book outlet 5 of them are hardcover. It's kind of like scratch and dent, so the books are priced cheaply.But all of mine are in brand new condition except Happy Place. The cover is a bit damaged but everything else is great. I'm in heaven!

I'll be spending the next three days at the GCCF conference in Augusta. I love conferences! Hopefully I'll have time to write after sessions.
