A quick summary of how it works (And, yes, library sales are awesome!) #writersofmastodon #writingcommuntity #authors #preordersales

Added 2k words today to the YA anxious girl story of my heart for a total of an additional 8k words. I’ve made lots of changes on this manuscript based on agents’ feedback and I feel like this story has so much more depth than it did before. (And I was in love with it then!)

Am I scared to send it back to agents who requested a “revise and resubmit?”

I am. Utterly terrified.

Nevertheless, onward.

Hey folks, I need advice in advocating for my payment as a freelance content writer. I got questions handed to me and need some perspective on a few of them. This is for the freelance option (full-time/part-time separate).

2. What is your desired salary in US$ per word?

3. How many hours per week can you dedicate to Captain Words?

5.  How many words can you [Write/Edit] per hour ?

Any advice is very appreciated! #writingcommuntity #contentwriter #salary #lifeadvice #LookingForFeedback
