Would you be willing/able to offer advice for beginner writers on their plot ideas (through Instagram dms or something)? I have a few ideas that I want to develop into something more, but I’ve never written a book before so I have no idea how to start and

I wish I could! But right now I am under multiple deadlines and I unfortunately have to put all of my focus on the projects I’m juggling.

But if you’re looking for some advice and wonderful resources for all stages of drafting and publishing, may I recommend Susan Dennard’s fantastic website? Years ago, just before I began drafting TQR and was trying to figure out the mysteries of writing and publishing, I came across her website and it is a gold mine of knowledge. I learned SO MUCH from her. She also writes some fantastic YA fantasies, if you’re looking for a new book to read.

Here’s her website if you’re interested: https://susandennard.com/for-writers/
