Out of 100 queries: 50 are prob not for me ( not my genre. Too close to another book on sub )10 are way off word count wise. 10 just aren't actual queries just letters wanting me to rep someone 10 aren't ready to be queried yet writing wise. That leaves 20/ 100 for consideration

One brave woman dared. The Islamic regime in Iran made her disappear. Her location is unknown. She is likely being tortured to death. Where is the outrage? Where is the world?

This image was created by a Japanese neurologist. It stays still when you are calm. It begins to move when you experience a slight amount of pressure. It moves like a carousel when under a great deal of stress. How are you doing?✨🤔
