A TdF book would be amazing! Have you read Cat by Freya North? It’s what first got me in to TdF when I was 17! Xx

Oh Steph. I had this same scenario with my first attempt at a novel. I rewrote and resubmitted so many times and couldn’t quite get it right. To this day I don’t know why. Yet the good news is it means you’re close and it’s a matter of the right book maybe this one on resubmit or maybe the next one but that kind of feedback usually means when not if. Good luck Xx

Thanks Julie. It was an incredibly positive email, and I've got heaps to think about. Querying is such a stab in the dark isn't it?! And any feedback I get feels like gold dust! xx

Yeah I once 70 rejections often kind but still NO but the next thing I wrote had agents fighting over it. It’s a marathon. Keep going X
