If you can’t travel to Hawaii, bring Hawaii to you. (Note: I like to add rum, but it’s a little too early for that.) ☀️ 🌴 🌺 #pogjuice

My heart aches for my country and brothers and sisters of color. Wounds run deep and I pray we heal together. I’ve turned off comments because I am listening. I am reading your posts. Love to all. #blacklivesmatter #youmatter #togetherwegofar

From my Turkish publisher: “There's nothing you can do to change the past. From listening to your inner voice never give up..." 🇹🇷 The Secret Lives / Kerry Lonsdale... the Turkish edition of Everything We Keep. One of my favorite foreign covers.

Happy pub day, @hannahmarymckinnon! You guys!!! I finished this book last night and OMG. So devious. So delusional. So fun. I absolutely loved it. @firstchapterfun #bookstagram #booklover

Finally! I made it to the post office and look what was waiting for me in my box. @tiffanyyatesmartin is, by far, the most thorough, insightful, intuitive developmental editor I’ve had the pleasure to work with. She doesn’t delete blocks of your manuscript and rewrite them for you, as I’ve had some editors do. That’s counterproductive. Tiffany has an innate ability to extract the best story from you. And she does it by asking questions. Lots and lots and lots and lots of questions. She makes you think. She pushes you hard. The crazy thing? She makes you want to dig deep. Her technique is more than wax on, wax off. Your story sparkles afterward. And you fall more in love with it.
I had the profound pleasure of reading an early copy of INTUITIVE EDITING and I already know it’ll be that one book in my craft arsenal that’s going to look pretty beat up from use after several more manuscripts. I can’t wait to dig in with my current manuscript. And I can’t wait to get to work again with Tiffany on my upcoming series.
If you’re an aspiring author looking to fine tune your manuscript for submission or a published author who wants to kick the quality of your story up several levels, get this book! Seriously. Tiffany knows her stuff and you are the one who benefits.
PS: Can you tell I love working with her? 💗
