Writer of literary fiction focusing on identity. Why? I'm still trying to figure that out one book at a time. Write what you know is a problem for me. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Ally Always 🌈✨| Respect, Love, Equality ❤️ | Team Blue For Life 💙 | He/Him 🌊
When I am in revisions, the word count quota flips. My word count is -200 today. Also, who wrote this garbage?

How strange to find that I am a different author on a different book.

Each scene brings its own challenges. This one is all about water - how many ways are there really to describe things being wet?

How can you be a writer and suck at words? Bring a chair over, I'll demonstrate.

Do I really suffer from problems I can overcome? Does it only count if the problem wins?

Do I really need to submerge myself in the acid bath of capitalism every day?
Can't I just write full time instead?

Ensemble scenes - such as the one I have with 6 different characters - are terrible to write.

As crazy as it sounds, I am writing a book on writing my book. I am using so many *novel* techniques that I started cataloguing them. So I'm just going to publish that alongside my book at the same time. Here is my book. Here is how I made this book.

Feels odd to say: She was silent. Isn't that just what happens when people don't say anything?

Edit, revise, finish. Feel good for ten minutes. Take a walk. Breath in the fall air. Stretch. Read it again. Dog poop.

The secret to writing is the same as a jigsaw puzzle. Just push the pieces that don't fit in really hard.

I can only keep my concentration for so long, then everything turns to gibberish. I can feel my grip slipping. Thoughts scatter. I know the flow is wrong, but I can't put together how.

I am an uneducated writer. I have not read enough. I can only do what feels right to me without knowing any better and proudly display my crayon scribblings next to masters.
