Going back to remind myself of this right now--it's out in the world, you're done, do not reread! 💀 (But oh, it's so tempting...)
Writers, do not reread your story after you hit submit. Repeat, DO NOT REREAD YOUR STORY AFTER YOU HIT SUBMIT. (Unless you want to magically find something you should've changed the first 20 times you read it over, and then torture yourself about it for the rest of the night.) 🫠

For anyone who doesn't know about these, Angela Deane's ghost photographs make the most incredible writing prompts. Sweet and nostalgic and haunting, and just so much fun to look at. 👻🌷

Caught myself deleting an em dash from a story-in-progress so that no one would wonder if it's A.I., and—no, absolutely not, this nonsense stops here. A.I. is not stealing the em dash from us. We had it first and we'll keep using it forever. #writingcommunity #writersunite
