I just realized that all of my favorite RomComs are the ones where MCs realize they’d rather be with someone they can be silly/fun with, and who cares enough to listen to their weird rants. So far I’m really liking #Holidate for this reason.

It’s the silly little things, I guess

Get u a partner who helps you with your problems, even if they do it kinda badly

Also you should be with someone who encourages you to try new things while also supporting your weirdness.

No matter how weird your hobbies

(Caveat: I do think this premise would’ve been way funnier if all of their family/friends didn’t know about their holidate only arrangement. Like the scene with her mom urging them to make it official kind of ruined it for me.)

To every author querying in 2020, please know that queries are often the first thing to fall off the Must Do List when everything is in crisis and our current client list needs us. Also, every agent I know is aware of this and feels SUPER guilty about it. Please remember this:

1. In publishing, whether you’re waiting on an agent or an editor, no news most often = no news. Not necessarily bad news. If you see an agent or editor doing other stuff than emailing you back, that doesn’t mean we’re ignoring you. It means we’re people who can’t work 24/7/365.

2. That said, it’s okay to follow up. It’s expected. My clients check in with me, and I check in with them. When things get chaotic, I sincerely appreciate authors who reach out and remind me that it’s Thursday and not Tuesday. Some days, I feel like Google Calendar IS my brain.
