Getting back into writing is always difficult for me when it gets put on the back-burner due to life getting in the way.
I'm finally getting to a good place with it though and just need to work on my routine 💪
What routines or motivations do you have for getting the thing done? 👀

Today will be my 25th visit to the gym since I posted this 💪🙈🎉
All progress is progress.
Small steps eventually lead to great distances.
Never be discouraged.
Be proud of any achievement or milestone, regardless of how insignificant you think it may be 💜

I lived LITERALLY nextdoor to a gym for 2 years ('17/18'). I got a membership the day I moved in but never actually went into it 🙈
Last week, I joined a gym again. This time, with the intention of actually making it in the front door. My ADHD already seems to have other ideas again 🙄🤦♀️😅 #TheStruggle

Did I do the stereotypical queer thing of watching a show like 'No Good Deed' because Kate Moennig was in it? Yes, yes I did. 🤦♀️😅
We love the representation though 🙈 (also shoutout to Liz Feldman 💜).

Job hunting these days is rough. I'm also at a point in life where I'm thinking 'do I pursue the dream job/dream job-adjacent role, or do I just take what I can get, and risk being in the same position in 5 years time?' 🫤
Being able to splurge on brand-name coffee again would be class though 🤔😅

Screenwriters! What are your go-to approaches for starting a script? Sometimes I'll have the majority of a full story; middle and end - but can never figure out the best way to start it, so I often find myself writing backwards 🤦♀️ Please tell me I'm not the only one? 🙈😂

My job was made redundant in Sept & I have spent every day since writing cover letters, applying for jobs, doing courses & generally being quite hard on myself.
Today, I am taking a day off to be kind to myself.
Sitting here with coffee & a blanket, and looking for a movie to watch 🥰 #SelfCare

Watched 'Hot Frosty' on Netflix this week, and let me tell you; what a rollercoaster! 😅 If you like predictable movies that rehash old Christmas storylines, then this is the film for you! It falls into the 'so bad it's actually brilliant' category and I'm only semi-ashamed to say I kinda loved it 🙈😂

And if that hot actor is 30+ years older than you, you're a cinephile with daddy issues; according to my therapist 🤷♀️😂

Other ppl tellin a story: It was all blue.

Loved this loads! Cillian Murphy's performance was so strong from the off (and perfectly portrayed every old-school Irish dad ever); the man can do no wrong. The message is so important, so it may be a difficult watch but a worthwhile one. 4/5 stars from me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As part of our anniversary this week, my fiancé is bringing me on a lil cinema date to see 'Small Things Like These' because she read reviews (which she started doing because I was such a lil film nerd 😂) & said "it's supposedly dark and depressing af" as her reason.
I'm marrying my perfect woman 😂

Recs for podcasts that run alongside sitcoms/TV shows please? I used to love Kevin Smith's 'Talk Salad and Scrambled Eggs', and I know Scott Patterson has 'I Am All In' based on the Gilmore Girls - any others would be much appreciated! 🙌👀
