Hey BlueSky, long time no see! I’ve been more active on Threads 😅
Officially started Book 2 on 12th August & second round of edits are underway for Book 1 🙏
Plus I have a few other WIPs on the back burner to work on in-between, which explore my other worlds!

It’s been a big week planning the timeline for book 2! So many juicy moments 😏 but I gotta make sure I space things out enough by separating it into two halves, with a specific chapter in mind to act as that mid-point.
This is gunna be a doozy to write! 😮💨

Deep in research while I map out the overarching storyline for the series, I’ve now created an infographic to pinpoint events in the timeline with more detailed information in “Origins” documents. Phew. I was not prepared for this at all 😭
And I STILL haven’t started Book 2 🤣🤣🤣 #authorsky

A few things I’ve learned to STOP 🛑 doing as a woman:
1. Apologizing when I’ve done nothing wrong.
2. Listening to insults given as backhanded compliments.
3. Filling the silence - I don’t have to speak to make you comfortable.
4. Making sure my appearance is pleasing to you.
5. Giving a fuck. 😉

I love how my chaotic brain can go off on a side quest (hyper focusing on my old OG story/create a map/fall down a rabbit hole deciding on implementing elves) and yet somehow end up figuring out how to complete the initial mission BECAUSE OF the side quest.
How? How is that possible?

There’s nothing quite like recoiling in utter repulsion at what your teen self used to write. On the bright side, I can only go up from there! 😆 #authorsofbluesky #teenwriting

With a modern fantasy series in the works, an OG story from my teen years I want to revive, a serial killer stand-alone & now a whole new idea for a kids book PLUS a vague dystopian concept, maybe a pirate story & another fantasy based off (ANOTHER) old fanfic…I need to live to 200 😮💨 #amwriting

I officially began writing this book on the 2nd June 2019, and in the early hours of the morning on Boxing Day, 2024, I finally finished it at 137k words.
Now I begin the editing process, and will hit the query trenches this year, turning dream into reality 🙌

Happy Friday the 13th! I just happen to be listening to the playlist I made for a serial killer story I have tucked away in my to-be-written pile 😏 features an all female cast, sisterhood tattoo, anti-hero/vigilante and dark feminine rage 🙌 #writingcommunity #crimefiction #conceptsofaplan

Have you ever? (Written a book?)
Ever felt like this? (Terrified of what people will think of you)
Have strange things happened? (You finished said book)
Are you going round the twist? (Literary agents, editors, publishing, promoting, selling, making 10c in royalties etc)

Hyper-focusing on the backstory of one character which “required” me to create a family tree so I could determine how many generations back I needed to go for that plot line which in turn created another plot I wasn’t planning on and now I fear I’ve done entirely too much 😂 #writercommunity

I can’t help but wonder how drastically different my story might’ve turned out if I, say, wrote it 10yrs earlier, or hadn’t experienced certain things or people in my life. I don’t think it would have the same impact, so I’m actually thankful for the setbacks #writerscommunity #foodforthought #fated
