Can’t wait for a certain someone else’s querying stats to follow 👀✨🫶

Hey Kate,

i m new at the platform but not at venting,I've been writing small stories lately. About bicycles nobody sold. Notebooks never finished. TV shows that came at 5 PM like a promise.

Nothing important. Just the kind of thing that makes you feel a quiet, unnamed something for a minute.

Come read, if you have ten minutes and something warm to drink. :)

Hi Kate, love your substack - so interesting and inspiring. I have a question, if that's ok, when you had query requests from pitching competitions did you send them your chapters immediately, or did you wait and include them when you felt ready and queried everyone? Thanks!

Do have a lovely day

Hi Kate. I came across your page and it is truly inspiring! I will be reading some of your articles later. Check out my books review page, The Mirage Shelf, if you are interested. ☺️

Congratulations, this is really inspiring! I just finished my draft and am pushing through my edits, and also keep having that "what's the point?" feeling. But I do believe in my book!

Also, side note, I love your strawberry cardigan 😍

Seems my message didn't post

Well done, amazing stats that are very impressive 👏 👏👏

Also started querying my 4th book the same time as you. Very different experience for me stats wise, but I also broke through doubt to do 1 last revision that I started querying at the start of May. Got another quick full request, but not bridged that gap yet to an offer. Do worry that my chances lessen the longer it takes, but I can't control that

Congrats again 👏 👍
