Some friends and I are setting up a discord community to chat to other writers and help each other out.

A lil place where we can talk about books we love, writing we'd like some feedback on and general resources for better writing :D

Another day of irresponsible people setting off fireworks while my pets whimper and cower inside.
I yearn for the day where I can live in the middle of nowhere and not be plagued by things like this.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 5:
A book doesn’t need a “serious message” to be worthwhile. Joy is a legitimate end in itself.

This is SO helpful if you want to keep track of how your characters change their POV through a timeline of events.

You can use Scrivener's Corkboard to visualize some complex elements of novels with multiple point-of-view characters and timelines, giving you a bird's eye view of your plot to ensure the coherence of complex stories.

It's that time of year again. Which books are you getting into to fuel your spooky vibes?

I sat down to work on my Mermaid novel and ended up creating part of a new novel with its roots coming from Fox Hunting.

One day, it would be nice to have a brain that would actually *focus* on what I want it to 😂

Don't you love sitting down to carry on with your story, only to then create a new story in your head that is completely different than the one you are working on? I swear I'm working on at least 5 different novels at once right now 👀

As much as I love my Cornish heritage...trying to find out more information on certain things is almost impossible due to so many centuries of stories being told orally instead of it being written down. I am so thankful for the Celtic overlap, but I know that not all of it is shared in each area.

Starting this morning off with some research into bioluminescence to make sure the setting for part of my novel sounds somewhat plausible... How are you spending your morning? 🥰

Took a heck of a writing and reading hiatus.
I feel amped up to start again now, though I'm not sure what made me lose my mojo in the first place.

What do you all do to keep your energy high when it comes to your hobbies? I'd love if folks could share any tips they use :)

I heard you all like beans...

I want to post my stories, but I fear that Wattpad is just known for smut. (not saying smut is a bad thing, I love reading smut, but not all of my stories include it!)

Are there sites like wattpad that wont have readers disappointed when there isn't any smut involved?

I've tried re-educating myself several times so I can work, earn and truly live with my chronic illness. Each time, my chronic illness renders me unable to do anything.

I genuinely feel helpless.

Playing @playpalia.com while looking after a bee(now dubbed 'Betty') with a broken wing. Can you get anymore cosy than this?

(Yes, the Betty put herself there, I have flowers in my lap ready for her if she's hungry)

I'm on Day 4 of my 'learning to draw' journey, and I've discovered @justdrawabox.bsky.social ... I think I finally have some structure to help me stay on track!

And ...

IT'S FREE?!

Drawing appears to be okay for my chronic illness...

If you're disabled, what hobbies do you enjoy that don't cause major flare-ups or issues to your energy?

I would love to be able to create a list for those stuck and wishing they could do something creative 🫂

PSA: Don't ask creatives "when are you going to finish that project?" it's very dangerous for us. There's a very real chance we spontaneously poof into a cloud of fairy dust, and retreat to our cave habitat for the next 2-3 months to regain our human form

Going to kick my butt back into drawing with my tablet now that I have one that works.
Day 1:

Looking at tutorials on Painter Essentials 8 (the main app i'll use)
& perhaps one tutorial on getting started.

I need to remember to use baby steps otherwise I'll get overwhelmed and stop ><

I haven't written for a hot minute...and that's okay (or so I keep telling myself).

My writing will always be there to come back to.
No time limit. No pressure. No stress.

A perfect hobby for someone with health issues that can't predict when they'll be well enough to participate in.

If you wrote today,
if you thought up a cool story,
if you plotted something out,
If you researched an idea,
if you thought about thinking about writing know that is not an easy thing to do these days and you’re doing great.

I've always been a little confused as to what defines YA and Adult as well as specific genres like Sci-Fi and Fantasy.

I always get stuck on particular details to the point where I'm not sure where they belong...Does anyone else struggle with this?

Writers and Authors....how do you build yourself a reader base?

I would love to hear different ways to do this 🥰

Nothing helps my writing brain more than taking time out to bake.

Here I have made blueberry breakfast muffins(v) and sunflower & pumpkin seed bread 🥰

Yesterday was first time in over a year I had enough energy to lift my arms for ten minutes of violin practice.

It's a small win, but still a win nonetheless!

Screw you fibromyalgia, I WILL learn to play the violin eventually 💜🎻
