First, I cannot wait to read this essay collection! It sounds amazing.
And second, I'm so glad you said that Butler's query letter. I couldn't even follow it. As someone who spent WEEKS on her query letter and got multiple rounds of feedback from four different people, it felt like he just typed something up like any old email and sent it off. I got a meeting request from Writers to Agents for this AWP, so I don't think it's a scam or anything. Plus, I think the program is mostly designed for emerging writers--not people with Pulitzers haha!
loved this! exactly what I needed as someone who has been needing to find structure again with my writing since the new year. would love to see more of these.
My two favorite writing subs in one post, amazing!! Can’t wait to watch this😊💕
Such an energizing and helpful convo! Come on over to Substack, Chelsea (in your nonexistent free time 😉)
Really enjoyed this, especially the part where Chelsea talks about founding her own press. Kudos!
