    Hello from the Querying Trenches! (part I)

    I'm reporting live from the querying trenches this week after a 3 year podcasting hiatus! After querying my book for years and getting nothing but form rejections, I made some serious changes and got a full request off the first five pages. I'm detailing everything I did. Plus, your questions from Threads answered! This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit erinshawclancy.substack.com

    Why Editors Are So Important

    This week, I'm fresh off receiving notes from my editor and the feels are mixed, y'all! I'm getting really vulnerable about why editors are so important and why you need to work with them, even if their critical feedback is tough to swallow. I worked with the fabulous Alyssa Matesic, who can be found via her website, or on her YouTube channel. Check her out if you're in the process of writing a novel!

I'm dropping my favorite tips for how to do this. Plus check out how little I know about sculptures and 9 to 5 day jobs! This is a public episode.
