How’s everyone doing as we head into the last of the year?

Watched the last episode of #TheSandman because I’m home sick and let me tell you… crying your eyes out while dealing with a terrible headache does not go together!
Aside from that, absolutely amazing.

Falling knee first onto concrete after the age of 40… zero stars. Would not recommend.

This! There is no algorithm here so it is easy for posts to get lost in the void. There is no shame on Bluesky for reposting as many times as you like!

#AUTHORS, please put links to your work in your bio!

Twice this week I’ve seen a post about an interesting book, clicked on their bio to maybe buy it and NOTHING.

I’d like to say we’d wander off to Amazon and find it, but we won’t. Readers are fickle and forgetful.

Help us help you 💙📚

Kiddo gave me feedback on a small portion of my book and ngl, it was great advice. So, I changed it based on what she said. It brought the connection between the fMC & mMC to whole new level.
I’ve officially hired her. I will pay in ice cream. She’s satisfied with the agreement.

Do you have a comfort movie? One that you can watch over and over if you’re home sick, or if you just generally have nothing else to watch and you put it on… again?

I’m nosey.
Tell me a book you currently have on your TBR pile.

If you could sit down with any author (alive) and pick their brain about writing for one single hour, who would you choose to sit with?

I came up with a story idea!
I thought of three entire scenes!
I figured out four characters!
I have an opening and an ending thought out!

FINALLLYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!

#WritingCommunity, I CAN ACTUALLY SAY THAT I #AmWriting!!

#WritingCommunity, what is one thing that you must have/do/eat/drink/listen to, etc. when you sit down to write? Something that, if not there, will feel like your writing mood is altered.

Definitely blue, with more orange around your pupil than I have, much like your grandmother. That’s what I see in my hearts vision to be your eye #colour, for both of you. Maybe one day I’ll get to see if my heart was right. I do hope to meet you. I love you.
Love always, your mom.

#Writers: Do not, I repeat, DO NOT assume you’ll remember that thing that came to you while in bed. No matter how comfy you are, find a way to JOT IT DOWN! If you don’t, 9x out of 10 you’ll only remember that you thought of something but not actually the thing you thought of!

#keepwriting

I’ve been writing my debut novel for years now. How far have I gotten? No where. I keep tossing and restarting and tossing. I want this but not sure if it’ll happen. I’ve not fallen in love with any of my stories enough to continue them. How do you keep going?

I’d like to connect with more authors/writers on here. Preferably ones that support ALL human rights, doesn’t look down on genres, and won’t try to convert me to their religion. If you fit that please say hey!
