I'm so excited to see you start your fun little adult fantasy! Love playing d&d and love seeing other people diving in and loving it too!

[@jenniferrs9984]

Your place looks amazing, the color behind your mirror is gorgeous. I've fallen back into crochet-ing and have been watching Agatha All Along, which has some spooky vibes I think you'd like. You always inspire me to keep writing, I'd love to hear more on how thorough you are in your drafting process for each version as I'm learning so much.

Love the cozy hobbies and vibes!! I’ve also found myself down the cozy coloring rabbit hole and loving it!! Love Fae Farm too!! Really enjoy these update videos, it was an instant click and watch! 🥰 Hope you have a cozy rest of your month!!

[@annastride]

How I ran here 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️ good to see you, Lindsay! Glad to hear you are healing and getting cozy in your new place. I'm super excited for Bitter Bones and your YA, too, maybe even for the grandma one 😄 🧙🏻‍♀️I'm in a similar boat for the rest of the year - finishing a draft, only for me it's my very first one. 30k in and counting. Let's do it! #wedonttalkaboutwrimo

I cackled at "I've got that capricorn urge." I have a capricorn stellium so I totally can relate (Cap sun, mercury and mars).

A speedy recovery

[@JoeyPaulOnline]

So glad the break is healed, and yeah tendons are kinda gross 😅 Hope you have a good few months left of the year!

[@heatherkay3592]

Hey Lindsay! I read The Odds a few weeks ago and absolutely devoured it. It’s only October but it’s already earned a spot as a top ten read this year for me! I’m trying to get into more middle grade books, especially ones that have the same cute and spooky vibes as your first two. Do you have any recommendations?

[@MrRorosuri]

🤗🤗💕

[@MrRorosuri]

Bitter bones!!!

[@TheCoffeeLife]

Ooo, Curious question: Also, Hi, Lindsay lol So, with Trad Pub, they let you have CPs and more specifically Betas read an unpublished draft? In my mind, I assumed no copy of the story was allowed to be seen other than by the Trad house. Cause, that's really cool you can still get beta type feedback during drafting/editing phase in Trad.

[@LindsayPuckett]

Yep! :) most trad pub authors I know have tons of CPs and betas, some who read even before their editors do!

[@CoffeeReadingWriting]

@@LindsayPuckettThats awesome. That’s actually really great to know. It’s so helpful for writers to get that type of feedback along the process. 👏🏽

[@EmmaBennetAuthor]

I also always use beta readers. Mine are unconnected to my publisher.
