Today was a good #WIPSnips word choice--helped me to cull the overuse of "building" in my current #WIP (Paper Guitar). #WritingPrompts #writesky #amwriting

How nice could a romcom be without the word nice? Well, this instance unfortunately comes from the cut chapter I'm still weeping over ... so "less nice." #amwriting #Wipsnips #writingprompts #writesky

Didn't think I had any #WIPSnips for scary week, but I found one in a #WIP I've placed on the back burner for a while. #amwriting #writesky #Writingprompts

Hats off to another snip from a chapter cut. RIP until the day I can figure out how to work you into another book.

One instance of lottery that I could find--in my current #WIP (Paper Guitar). #WIPSnips #Writesky #amwriting

A snip from the #WIP I #amwriting, tentatively titled PAPER GUITAR. #WIPSnips #Writesky #Writingprompts

A SECOND chance for a snip that didn't survive the chopping block during edits on This Is Not A Hockey Romance. #amwriting #Wipsnips #writesky #writingprompts
October 21, 2025 at 2:23 PM
#WIPSnips from the novel I #amwriting (currently titled PAPER GUITARS). #writesky #writingprompts
October 20, 2025 at 2:05 PM
For "dodge" I had to go with a synonym, "escape" and some "dodging the subject" vibes. (More from cut scenes from THIS IS NOT A HOCKEY ROMANCE.) #WIPSnips #amwriting #writingcommunity #writesky

Been so caught up in a rewrite, haven't played #WIPSnips in a while. Thought I "might" get back in the game. This is from material cut from THIS IS NOT A HOCKEY ROMANCE #amwriting #writingprompts #writesky

Still another bit "snipped" (permanently) from my novel under revision. MC helps to set up for a podiatry conference. (I'm mourning the loss of many good foot jokes.) #WIPSnips #WritingPrompts #writingcommunity #writesky

Yet another clip from #WipSnips from work being cut from my novel under revision. (Loving having a forum to share it!) The MC is a novelist. #writingcommunity #Writingprompts #writesky

Another snip from parts being cut 🥲 from my novel under revision prior to submission. I'm going to have to write a cowboy novel to reuse this stuff. 😂 #WIPSnips #writingcommunity #writesky

It seems my love of coffee is reflected on every second page of my manuscripts. Here's a snip from the wip I #amwriting, wherein the MC describes her father. #WIPSnips #writingcommunity #writesky

Back after some time away ... I've posted this clip before, but it's my only instance of "sane." (From Almost a Love Story)

Perfect morning.

Here's a snip from the #WIP I #amwriting (ALMOST A LOVE STORY), which I can repost for #WIPSnips on Aug 25, 26 and 27. LOVE the efficiency! ("snake" serving as "reptile")

Another snip from a fun (but distracting) chapter that is sadly being cut from the #WIP I #amrevising before going on submission. #WIPSnips #writingcommunity
August 23, 2025 at 3:00 PM
Moment away from writing for some cat love.
August 21, 2025 at 11:23 PM
From the #WIP I #amwriting, tentatively titled ALMOST A LOVE STORY, the MC ponders the state of her life and career.
#WIPSnips #writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompts
August 20, 2025 at 2:05 PM
Lots of rainbows, elbows, bowls, and even bowels, but I've settled on a "bow" from a chapter that will, sadly, likely be cut from the novel I #amrevising to go #onsubmission. (Hard to let go ...) #WIPSnips #Writingcommunity #writesky #WIPPrompts
August 18, 2025 at 2:49 PM
A cheap-cheap-cheap snippet from my upmarket romcom likely to be on submission this fall. MC is a struggling novelist looking for her comeback by writing a hockey romance.

Today's #WIPSnips from the work I #amwriting tentatively titled "Almost a Love Story." #WritingPrompts #Writingcommunity
August 12, 2025 at 3:16 PM
A "real" sample of my current #WIP, which I'm now calling ALMOST A LOVE STORY. #WIPSnips #writingcommunity #writesky
