Not many people can say that getting drunk during a live stream created a butterfly effect that changed their life for the better. But we've got you, and I think that's enough. So happy for you and proud of you and you have all of my good vibes for the future!
thank you so much, Jessica! I literally wouldn't be here without you and your jodly powers! I'm so grateful to have you as my friend and I love youuu 💖💖💖
Katie Ann I am so freaking excited for you! I was also internally screaming with you lol. I think you are amazingly talented and I've already told you that I can't wait to own your books and make them a part of my library and I'm so happy that I won't have to wait too much longer. You are a brilliant writer and thank you for sharing all of your awesomeness with the rest of the world and more specifically, AuthorTube! I hope you did something to celebrate this huge win! Take care of yourself Katie Ann ❤️❤️
thank you so much JC! 💖🥰 your kind words mean so much to me 🥹 I can't wait to share so much more with y'all and I love this community so much! 💖🥰 I think I ate a lot of pizza and cake in celebration 😂
congratulations, congratulations 🎉🍾🎈🎊 i’m a lurker for the past couple of months and i know that submitting to publishers is going to go super amazing for you 🎉 i’m glad to hear that this particular new leaf agent said they have you for your whole career i know that new leaf had one or two big agents that had a habit of dropping clients for not selling fast and big enough and it came out last summer (this isn’t to humdrum i only wanted to alert any queryin writers scrolling so they could check!). it looks very much like you have one that doesn’t do that there so i’m ecstatic for you! they represent so many superstars! i cant wait to read your book and have it on my shelves. and off track i’m a surprised that they mentioned women/femmes writing mlm as hard to sell, it seems that they are plenty of books that have that that pop up in right’s reports on publisher’s weekly (and idk being non-binary i think people have to be careful cause what you may think is a straight woman writing mlm may not actually be; when it comes to them maybe being trans or non-binary or genderfluid or figuring things out or agender and not needing to out themselves, or a queer femme that is exploring gender and sexuality in their writing). again off track it only got me thinking though! congratulations and congratulations what a wonderful way to start the year 😄😄😄
thank you so much! 🥰💖 they really do rep so many great authors! and it is WILD that I am on their website. and I totally get that! I've seen a lot about that too, but with this being a newer agent, I've decided to take the risk. I hope you have it one day! 🥰 and that is totally a fair point! I know it's such a nuanced conversation, one that I've been entrenched in for a while. (Before I even knew I was queer. Which like, the closet was glass but I still didn't realize 😂) It is very case-to-case. I remember when Becky Albertalli was forcible outed and it was so awful. It's a very deep conversation that I enjoy looking into and talking about, especially because writing is so exploratory and we never know how someone identifies! thank you again! 🥰💖
once again i'm just SO EXCITED for you this has been such an inspiration to watch, made me feel 1000x more motivated to start my querying journey again!
AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! Congrats Katie!!!! I'll internally scream with you :) I now understand the huge Nano goal that you smashed hehe. You are glowing and I know only more great things are to come. 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳❤❤
@@writerofscribbles 😂🤣 yes and an amazing secret to have. I can't wait for the vid announcing its been sold because we're screaming that into the atmosphere too. You deserve every minute of this Katie. So proud of you for grabbing hold if your dreams.
Omg omg omg omg! I already knew this and I'm still bouncing around like an excited puppy watching this video 💖 I am so unbelievably proud of you, I've loved following your journey so far and I can't wait to see how far you are going to continue to go. I can't believe you started cruel summer two years ago it feels like it's been a few months at most, and I'm sure it will feel like no time has passed at all when I finally get to put a copy of it on my bookshelf 💖💕
omg thank you so much, Marta 🥹🥰 It really doesn't feel like it's been that long to me either! but it's come such a long way. and I'm so glad I have you as my friend and along with me for the journey 🥰🥹💖
So happy for you! Your news lowkey made my day 💙 No specific questions, but I'm looking forward to learning more about the publishing process from your perspective :)
Wow! I started following you a few months ago before you posted this and I’m subscribed to your newsletter. Congratulations! Going to watch your stats video next! Celebrate every part of the journey! 🥳
That live stream was epic😂 As will be your career as an author❤ I can’t wait to have your stories on our bookshelf. And for the world to get to know you and your great talent. SO many wishes of congratulations and lots of love.🎉❤😘
At some point in high school. Every idea I had just became mlm. I mean. I was going through shit so. Can’t really be surprised. And then for a hot second I was just changing everything to wlw bc I felt bad. But I think I’m calmer ab it now. And i realized, in doing all of that, gender doesn’t really matter to the story (surprise surprise). So I just let things be. And, regardless of gender, the main couples (most couples) will be gay, in some way. Or queer, in a generalizing way. Across the whole spectrum, anything and everything. Bc I am very gay. I want what I write, to be very gay. I also. I will talk to myself ab HOW gay my books are. Which are the least, most commercially marketable gay. You know. Like I should focus on this book bc stand-alone and gay is not too obvious. Things like that. Those conversations have been going on since I fully decided I’m going to write books, and that I want them published. So. Yeah. Some relatable points in this video.
She’s an icon! She’s a legend! She’s an AGENTED AUTHOR!!! So freaking proud of you!
ahhhh thank youuu 🥰🥹 I couldn't be here without you 🥹
