Hard to believe that my MS is actually on this list, only days after getting onto the #WriteMentor Summer Mentoring Programme with another MS… 😲 Congrats to all my fellow longlisters, but thoughts as always with those who missed out, having been there myself so many times 💪

Great to get such positive feedback from @prize_novel considering it was for a 1st draft! Also good to see their suggestions chime with changes I’ve since made or am planning to make in draft 4 (thanks to excellent editorial advice from @BrittonBookGeek 🙏)

Now I really do appreciate agents’ prompt responses to queries, but I could’ve done without 2 rejections in the last 2 days while away on holiday 😖
Anyway here’s some baby birds on our apartment windowsill to cheer things up 😎🐥🐧#amquerying #amonholiday

In woods around Netherwood a killer is at large. Farmers say it's a dog. Children say monster. Townsfolk, in a cost-of-living crisis, don't care. Only 11yo, autistic, Connor knows the truth. Finding your place in a world where nothing stays the same
