I just realised there must be close to a thousand #comicbook issues collected in the volumes on my shelf! I wonder how many I would have if I added it all up (and my digital comics)

Still in a rage about Meanjin closing, I decided to use that energy for good and submitted six stories to various mags yesterday. We love writing, we love Australian literature. We need *more* Australian writing spaces, not less

The decision to close Meanjin is really bad, sad and terrible. 85 years of Australia’s literary history shut down for University profits :(

Usually I tend to lose steam pretty early on a longer writing project, but this Novel has me by the pen. Nearly 45K words in a little over two months is insane progress for me

I’m smashing my #writing goal so far. I’ve never written this many words, this quickly. I started this on the 10th of May! My last attempt at a novel took four years to get 70K words, and was such a harrowing experience I still haven’t gone back to it 😂

Hey, is the fact that a LOT of popular #writing software now has AI built-in going to affect creative contracts? If a TTRPG or Book publisher has a no AI policy, will they stop accepting submissions in word doc?

Hey #daggerheart friends, so I might be missing something, but how is the roll to hit your evasion, then taking damage and seeing where that falls on your damage threshold to see how much damage you actually take, and then spending armour to reduce that by 1… good?

So, we all build wikis to procrastinate the work of ‘novel writing’, yes? #writingcommunity

Anyone else discovered trackbear? I don’t need an app to track my #writing goals but the leaderboard thing is something neat I’d never thought of.

So my #dnd5e prep for next session is done! And hopefully, it'll be an absolute hoot! Last session, the party arrived in the Gothic city of Carneath to discover the identity of the Hand of Vecna (a leader and treasurer of the Cult of Vecna), and stop them. The cult seek Vecna's return, and...

#writing really is all about re-writing. No matter your style or voice, making your writing as lean as suitable makes a huge difference. This week I cut a 3700 word short story down to a 2500 word story, and it’ll much stronger. Lean, like premium beef mince.
