An incomplete list, but here are some ways I keep my Bluesky experience pretty happy:
1. Be kind when possible
2. Celebrate/congratulate people's wins
3. Always "like" pet pics
4. Trolls, etc: Don't Engage, Just Block
5. Don't nitpick typos/small errors
6. Remember the failure mode of clever

Day 5 of NaNoWriMo and making progress!
Confession: getting that query rejection yesterday was NOT what my NaNoWriMo creativity needed.
It's like, I'm trying to shut out negative doubts, but the universe wants to shout, "No, you really can't do this."

Pantsing for NaNoWriMo is not a successful strategy for me, so I have one week left to finish an outline. The countdown has begun!!
Let me know what you are writing in November!

This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until it's done. It’s that easy, and that hard.
