No one and I mean NO ONE will ever see my first drafts 😭😭
Morning #writesky would you rather have to always handwrite your drafts? Or would you rather have to publish your first draft with no edits? (Both for the rest of your life)

Honestly… rushed ending. I’d rather hate what happens than for nothing to happen at all!!

I’ll be honest, the sequel to murky hells was going terrible. I couldn’t figure out how to fix the pacing, what the plot was missing, or how to flesh out the world. But I have CRACKED it no more struggle!!! Months of thinking have fixed it all!!!! #indieauthor #booksky #authorsky

Yuumi's lines in League are so relatable:
"Get your OWN book!"
"Want a book thrown at your head?! ...Don't worry, Book. I would never do that!"
"I won't lose you, Book!"

Crazy Taxi was such a good concept for a game. It’s all in the title. You’re mentally ill, and you own a taxi. Sign me up.

Spike loved Buffy without a soul. He sought one out to be worthy of her. Angel only loved Buffy with a soul. As soon as he lost it, he tried to kill her. And yet people think that ANGEL was the better man?????

Sorry I’m in a spiral

God forbid I just want to collect all the books that I possibly can, move into a mossy cottage in the darkest part of the woods, and make a lil home there amongst the animals and nature.

Had to call in sick because winter Got Me and I’m really unwell but hey at least I can read in between “oh shit I’m going to die” moments!!

The sweet swirl of roses, undercut with the slightest tangiest scene, that reminds you of something close but you can’t quite put your finger on it…
Your book has now been melted into a candle. What does it smell like and what silly name does the scent have? #WritingPrompt

If you enjoyed a novel, contact the author and let them know!

Writing can be a difficult, anxious, uncertain, and often insecure profession. Yet a huge amount of joy comes from connecting with readers.

So don't be afraid to write to a beloved author – it could very genuinely brighten their day.
