So I know I've been silent for a few days, work and the like. However I did hear back from one of the sites I sent a story to. They unfortunately rejected it but they have ample critique and reasoning so I wasn't too heart broken lol. Onwards and forward. #writers #writingcommunity #authors

Trying to get these fingers to type
Trying to get this brain to think
There's a story to be told
But can I coax it out
Or will it just be another half dreamed dream

The daily struggle of trying to write.. another day hopefully another word. #writers #writingcommunity #authors

Say it with me:

If you are writing a book you aren’t an **aspiring** author, you ARE an author!

Be proud of yourself, babe! Writing a book ain’t easy! #WritingCommunity

When you've spent all day doing nothing because it's the day after Thanksgiving. The weather is cold enough to comfortably hibernate. You've spent all day fighting to keep your eyelids open. But you didn't write today so now your brain is screaming at you. #writers #writingcommunity #authors

So I just submitted three poems and a short story to various online magazines. No potential payout by just the idea of having even one of them published has got me jittery with both anticipation and dread. It'll be a bit before I have any confirmation but good or bad I'll post. #writingcommunity

When you think about how with time off you can totally get some writing in after your Thanksgiving dinner but you don't get your hopes up because you also know that you're going to go hard on that turkey and take an impromptu 12 hour nap once you get home.. #writers #writingcommunity

I know I'm not the only one but man I hate editing. I wrote the story and now I have to go back and fix mistakes I made in the heat of the moment because the scene was too good and I left a glaring plot hole. Too much! 😆😆😆🥲 #writers #writingcommunity #authors

When you're sitting at your job and all you can think about is that next scene. It's going to be amazing and you know it but the ridiculous dependence on currency so that you are allowed to continue living in a house and not outside stops you from writing it. #writers #writingcommunity #authors
November 26, 2024 at 3:22 PM
Starting a new job tomorrow that's about to cut my writing time to basically zero for four days a week.. I'm hoping I'll have the energy to write on my days off 😔 slowly but surely though we'll get that next page written. Right guys? 😂 #writers #writingcommunity #authors

When you look back through your #WIP and you wonder how your characters successfully escaped all the danger before them.. damn madlads though keep finding themselves in head first. #writers #writingcommunity #authors
November 25, 2024 at 7:14 AM
When after a week of nothing but work, getting people places, and sleep you finally get to sit down with your #WIP at 5 in the morning.. best feeling. Second best is starting a scene you're unsure about and it turning out amazing. #writers #writingcommunity #authors

That moment when you start a story and then half way through you realize there is more than enough before this story to write a prequel so you write that and go back to the first story only to realize you could also do a sequel.. every damn time. #writing #writercommunity #authors #writersky

Do you ever choose to not write when in a bad mood just so your MC or goddess forbid the lovable side character doesn't suffer from your mood? #writingcommunity #writing #writersky #authors
November 22, 2024 at 12:09 PM
When you're really into world building but then you realize that no one really needs to know that 500 years before the setting of your book the currency of the people was wooden coins intricately carved with the goddess on them.. then you're sad. #writing #writingcommunity #authors

When you finish writing a scene and you're super pleased with how it turned out only to realize that you just invalidated an event from fifty pages ago so now you have to decide which scene to fix... #writingcommunity #writersky #authors

Do you write because it's something you enjoy doing or do you write because you need to for your mental health? There are times I don't want to write but I have to to get my head on straight. #writingcommunity #writersky #authors
November 22, 2024 at 5:44 AM
Sit down, decide not to write because that's all I've been doing. Try to give my brain a rest even for a little bit. Weather is perfect, best cup of coffee I've ever made, house is quiet. Decide to write... CHAOS!!!!!!! #writing #writingcommunity #authors
November 22, 2024 at 4:48 AM
Do you write to get the story out of your mind or do you write so that others may see it? Honestly I feel these two are connected but I also know there are stories I've written that are just for me and no one else. #writing #writingcommunity #authors

Writing is sometimes letting your fingers do their own thing while you become a secondary passenger in your body because there are words that need to get out. It is also sometimes reaching into a void looking for anything because nothing is coming to you. Yay? #writing #authors #words
