This weekend marks my return to editing Mapledusk! It’s just begging for a local coffeeshop for some scenery.

Happy new year!

I spent it playing Baldur’s Gate 3 with my husband.

Here’s to more quality time with our loved ones. 🍾🥂

Ahhhh I know I don’t have many followers but I thought I would scream out to the void anyway:

I had a major breakthrough for my novel-in-progress. It means editing what has been written but it is SO worth it and I’m so excited for readers to experience it!

The quiet panic when a complete stranger looks you in the eye, smiles, and says, “Hey, you!”

Me: Hey ChatGPT, what was I in a past life?
CGPT: You were the flame that whispered to the cavemen and inspired them to paint on the walls.
Me: …What? 😀

A former coworker needs help! Dhruvi and i were baristas together and she opened a coffee truck with her bestie but their truck broke down. 😩 gofund.me/476762ab

There’s a “No Spend 2025” trend circulating on TikTok and I’m very tempted to take part. Part of my list would include the following:

• nail salons
• fancy coffee/boba
• makeup/skincare/perfume
• digital subscriptions

What wouldn’t you spend $$ on in 2025?

Everyone’s an atheist until they have to organize their Magic the Gathering collection.

#WritingCommunity, can you relate to this? As soon as I detach myself from an initial idea in an WIP, a newer, better idea (usually) takes its place.

Sometimes you’re meant to tell your ego no, even if it wants the cliches and tropes and Mary Sues of it all.

Had a wooden character. Now he’s not wooden, but his hobby is woodcutting. At least my heart was in the right place! 😭 #amediting

Happy Friday, #writingcommunity!

Hi, I’m Gabrielle (pen name), she/her!

My WIP is an #urbanfantasy called Mapledusk 🍁 Groundhog Day x Gilmore Girls vibes with a dash of Doctor Who.

I’m new to bsky and would love some friends to talk to about the editing process! (I follow back!) 🖤
