Hello there! Have you come to join me on my quest to the Land of Published Authors? I've been wandering down the path for quite some time, and the map to my destination, unfortunately, has been covered in many tea stains. For each turn I make, I retrace my steps and make sure I haven't forgotten anything. Sometimes I have to drop my cargo to the wayside, even if I don't want to part with it, and no matter how careful I am, sometimes I still make wrong turns. But no matter!
I'm much closer to Published Land than I was a few months ago. It's incredible how sending out that first query letter filled me with such a sense of accomplishment. I've only just started sending out query letters this month, and despite receiving only rejections, I feel like I'm finally a real writer.
I began writing original fiction when I was twelve. The first book I worked on was about a werewolf in an alternate universe. It's currently a convoluted mess that makes me cry whenever I think about the mere idea of editing it. The book that's getting me rejection letters is a supernatural Christmas story for middle grade readers about a twelve-year-old boy who is struggling with his belief in Santa Claus and his desire to be a grown-up.
Look out for a Youtube channel featuring yours truly (once I figure out how to use the camera).
