Murder in Highbury by Vanessa Kelly NetGalley Book Review Jackie Reads and Writes 2024-10-13 | Hello, friends! Today I have a @NetGalleyTV book review for "Murder in Highbury" by Vanessa Kelly. Thank you to publishers Kensington Books for providing me with this advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. Please also check out my Goodreads review if interested: goodreads.com/review/show/6775419706"Murder in Highbury" is a sequel to Jane Austen's Emma in which Emma Woodhouse - now Emma Knightley - must solve the murder of the vicar's wife, Mrs. Elton. When the constable and coroner set their sights on the wrong person, Emma has to solve the crime to save a friend from an unfair conviction.

The Last Writing Vlog (Before Querying) Jackie Reads and Writes 2024-10-09 | This is the last writing vlog…before I query literary agents, that is! Hello, bookish friends. Today is an exciting and emotional day. Today, I’m posting my final writing vlog on Project Dagger! In case you don’t know, Project Dagger is my Agatha Christie inspired murder mystery set in the 1930s. Check out my other writing vlogs in my writing playlist (linked in the card). I am so excited to have this book (almost) query ready, but also kinda sad that I won’t be talking about it on my authortube channel anymore. Of course, we will talk about it again if I get an agent and/or a book deal, but this is a goodbye for now. I will still be posting writing-related content, so let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions for topics I can discuss on my channel. I may post some videos about querying strategies and short story writing, so keep an eye out if that interests you. I hope you’ll continue to follow me as I pursue my writing ambitions! #authortube #writingvlog #writingcommunity 💖 L E T ‘ S B E F R I E N D S ➠ Goodreads goodreads.com/user/show/81274616-jackie➠ Tumblr thebrightpreciousthings.tumblr.com ➠ Instagram instagram.com/jackiereadsandwrites

I've been using Goodreads since around 2018 and I have six years of reading history to look back on. My tastes have changed a lot since I first joined Booktube and I thought it would be interesting to look back. So, who's ready for a reading blast from the past?

How to Implement Beta Reader Feedback & When is Your Book Ready for Querying | WRITING VLOG Jackie Reads and Writes 2024-09-22 | It’s time for another writing vlog! In today’s video, we’re going to talk about how to implement feedback from beta readers, how to know you’re ready for querying (spoiler alert: you don’t), and why no literary agent is better than a bad literary agent. My historical mystery manuscript, nicknamed “Project Dagger,” has been through two rounds of beta readers. I’ve had a lot of feedback, including some that’s conflicting, so I’ve been working through it and thinking about what I want to do. I have been working on this manuscript on and off for a year, so I will probably try my luck at querying literary agents soon. Seeing as I already queried one book and (seemingly) failed to find an agent, I do have a lot of anxiety about doing this all again. I think ultimately it’s important to remember that getting an agent or not doesn’t determine you or your story’s worth. Also please remember that: NO AGENT IS BETTER THAN A BAD AGENT! I’ve seen a lot of people on YouTube and Twitter signing with agencies who have no sales history, no connections, and no experience. Please do not trust your book and your career to someone who can’t sell it! #writingvlog #writingcommunity #querying 💖 L E T ‘ S B E F R I E N D S ➠ Goodreads goodreads.com/user/show/81274616-jackie➠ Tumblr thebrightpreciousthings.tumblr.com ➠ Instagram instagram.com/jackiereadsandwrites

Researching Literary Agents, Conflicting Beta Reader Feedback, & More Writing Stuff | WRITING VLOG Jackie Reads and Writes 2024-09-11 | Hello, hello! Welcome back to my Authortube channel, where today I have my longest writing vlog…ever! In today’s video, I discuss a lot of different things going on with my historical mystery manuscript, Project Dagger, as I gear up to re-enter the querying trenches in the near future. Project Dagger is a 1930s-set historical murder mystery inspired by Agatha Christie and her contemporaries from the Golden Age of Crime. I’ll discuss my beta reader feedback from my second round of betas, including how their feedback conflicts earlier feedback I received. Deciding what feedback to implement is difficult, and this is an issue I’ve been ruminating on a lot. I also show you how I research literary agents on Publishers Marketplace. What should you look for? This is a topic you all wanted me to discuss, so here are just my two cents on the topic. I also discuss my anxiety and uncertainty as I prepare to query literary agents with my second book. It’s creating a lot of emotions and I wanted to be transparent about that, because I’m sure I’m not the only one. Are you working on any writing projects right now? Are you in the querying trenches?

I think we also need to remember that not everyone can afford a professional editor and it should not be mandatory to pursue publishing. You don't need to spend money to get valuable feedback!

The Harsh Truth About Querying Literary Agents You Need to Hear Jackie Reads and Writes 2024-06-30 | If you are currently querying or thinking about querying literary agents, you need to hear this harsh reality. #amquerying #querying #authortubechannel Querying is the process of trying to get a literary agent or independent publisher for your manuscript. Many people begin the querying process with misconceptions or flawed attitudes about how it works. What is the truth about querying and traditional publishing? It's this: that this is a BUSINESS. At the end of the day, literary agents have a finite amount of time, and they are looking to support themselves. This means that you may receive generic rejections or no responses. Many authors also have a frankly entitled attitude, believing they are above reproach and refusing to accept that anyone might reject them. In reality, writing and any creative career comes with rejection, and if you can't handle that, you might not be ready for the realities of this career. Is it harsh? Yes. Does it suck? Kinda. Is it true? Also yes. Let me know about your querying experience in the comments! 💖 L E T ‘ S B E F R I E N D S ➠ Goodreads goodreads.com/user/show/81274616-jackie➠ Tumblr thebrightpreciousthings.tumblr.com ➠ Instagram instagram.com/jackiereadsandwrites
