I never used to read my own stuff out loud, but lately I’ve been reading everything out loud; especially in novel revisions (draft two!) …

Now I find myself loving some of the things I write, then stumbling over the rest. That’s the clue that I need to slow down and revise to make sure it’s clear.

alright you wanna know how to support trans people?

#mini1000 day two involved making edits to my novel, but I realized that there is a point in which I stopped marking chapters. The rest of the manuscript is just one big blob of text… this will be fun. #authors: when do you break up writing into chapters? Or is that last? @jamiattenberg.bsky.social
