The thing about writing is how devastatingly lonely it is.
I've spent thirteen years trying to find a writing group after my MFA program ended. I finally found one. They're all good writers, most of them are also MFA graduates. They _love_ my realistic fiction. They seriously don't understand my speculative fiction. And that's what I want to write. That's what I'm going to write. So where can I go from here? (Genuinely asking.)
Let's do an intro!

Do I know anyone who's planning to go to the Nebula Conference?
Just had an amazing (and detailed!) post-developmental edit discussion with a very happy #fantasy author. Can't wait to see his book released! 😁
If you're wondering if your manuscript is hitting the right notes, get in touch for a #developmentaledit or #manuscriptcritique

Yesterday I completed a sample copyedit for a YA novel...
Sample edits are useful to both writer and editor.
They let you (the writer) see how I work, what I'd change and why, and you can decide whether I'm a good fit.
They let me (the editor) get an idea of how you write and how long the job will take me - so I can provide an accurate quote.
#writers (particularly #SFFWriters!) get in touch for a sample edit!
(Max 2k words from the middle of your MS)
