Nice! Maybe you could have a recurring ghost character. Someone from way in the past who struggles understanding the modern world

I had to pause halfway through to tell you how much I love, love, LOVE this!!! It’s eery, it’s spooky, it’s vivid in imagery and vibrant in detail! And it’s just that touch of suspense and tongue in cheek writing style that makes it perfection!

I mean this full heartedly, come back and share your work anytime!!! I’ll always read and give some feedback! 🧡🫶

I'm currently querying too. So far I've received 4 rejections and 1 request for a full. I'm taking the immediate no's okay, but I'm super nervous about getting a rejection for the full. The immediate rejections feel like "not a good fit" or "not my area of expertise" or "too many words", but if/when someone reads my whole story and THEN rejects it... eek. Ouch.

I love your writing style. The bantering back and forth makes me smile.

I’m self-publishing because I’m a control freak. And not 100% sure how querying works. Should look into it.

I couldn’t afford the house. But I might be an illegal squatter 🤣 not every day you get to be a groupie for a ghost.

Congrats on the full request! I'm 8/24 😅 and I agree the "not a good fit" definitely easier to take. But you've hit a milestone by getting a full request!

Thanks for your feedback! I'm glad you're enjoying it 😄 I think I need to write Haley and Sam's meet cute 🤔

It feels kind of like applying for jobs..but worse 😅.

Dean would absolutely be over the moon to have a squatter in his love shack 🤣🕺🏻
