I recently rediscovered my love of poetry and decided to start sharing my own. This is a particularly vulnerable poem I'm nervous about posting, but I hope it'll resonate with someone.

If the only 🧊 killings you've heard about are Alex Pretti and Renee Good, that is by design. And that is, perhaps, a sign that you should be looking at who you are following and what other news sources you could be consuming.

I'd LOVE to be able to make a post about my writing journey without people pushing services at me. Editors, reviewers, etc: commenting on an authors post meant for other writers only to push your services is NOT how you successfully generate business. #writingcommunity

Fellow authors/writers, how long does it take YOU to complete your first round of edits before sending your manuscript to alpha or beta readers? I am on month 4 and not even half way through. I fear my perfectionism is getting the best of me 😅

AI will never replace editors as AI can't understand what it is to be human. Sure, you might be able to fix some typos and grammatical errors, but a developmental edit? Feedback on whether your characters are relatable and if your arcs are impactful? Only a human can tell you that.

It's #GivingTuesday & we're launching an End of Year fundraiser! Help us help writers learn how to respectfully include characters of differing identities in their narratives in #2026AndBeyond.

Our goal is to raise $10k. Support us by donating and/or sharing this post!

I've just enrolled in my very first university course, bringing me one step closer to my dream of being an editor for indie authors :)

Now that I've completed the first draft of my book, I plan to be more active on social media. Here's a few things I support:

LGBTQIA2S+ rights
BLM
Free Palestine
SW is real work
ACAB
Invisible disabilities are valid
Vaccines save lives

MAGA can hit the block button. To everyone else, welcome!

It finally happened! Tonight I finished the book I've been working on for 3 years! One year of plotting/world-building/consulting followed by just over 2 years of writing. This story contains so many pieces of my soul, I've never been so attached or committed to a project before. #writingcommunity

I'm down to one cent to my name so I'm boosting in the hopes of getting a bit of safety cushion. 😅

ICE is a criminal organization willfully carrying out illegal orders and the people of California are right to resist this. respect to the fighters and power to the people

My novel just reached 100,000 words! This is such a huge milestone for me. With ADHD, I have so many discarded projects, but this story is where my soul has resided for the last few years. I can't wait to share it with the world. #writingcommunity

Not only did I meet my goal of writing 30,000 words this month, but my novel has now reached over 90,000 total words! Keeping up with my projects while having ADHD has always been such a struggle. Soon this will surpass my longest word count to date! #writingcommunity

I’m so tired of disabled people being left behind in almost every way. In education, in economics, in diversity, in equity, I could go on. With things shifting and society uprising, disabled people are usually the last to be helped or thought of. Please include disabled people in your revolution.

I'm attempting to write 30K words this month. Pumped out 1570 words today so looks like I'm off to a good start. Here's hoping I can keep momentum. I really want to finish draft 1 of my romantasy book this year!

Hey, who's looking for some good indie books? I've made a concerted effort to read more indie writers in the past year and a half; here are some great ones. Some of these I purchased, others were ARCs or gifts

It's me, so they're mainly horror or horror-adjace and queer as fuck

I'm a romantasy writer looking to find community. I formerly went by Varia Vale. I thought a unique name would help me stand out, but it never really felt like ME. Here's a few things about me:

Queer & Chronically ill
Gamer
Leftist
Nerd
Neurodivergent
Genderfluid (she/they)
