I haven’t handwritten fiction in years. At @paulclarity.bsky.social suggestion, I did just that for a short story yesterday.
Suffice to say, my life will never be the same.

What's a genre or style of book you feel like you want to write but you think you would be terrible?

I would love to be able to write comedy in serious settings in the vein of Douglas Adams, Firefly, or Resident Alien. #writingCommunity

Hey #writers #writing #writingcommunity - what are online resources helped you in developing your writing?

Brandon Sanderson's lectures on YouTube gave me the tools I needed to work with Fantasy/Sci-Fi. Local Script Man taught me everything I know about developing characters.

Whatchu got? 🙃

#writingcommunity what's your favorite genre to write in?

Comedy is usually where I'll start, but I'm dipping my toes into darker, more psychological stories. Tonally, I'm all over the place 😌

We’re doing introductions? I live in Oxford, read books in all genres and love theatre and history, plus quizzing, puzzles and strategy games. I use all of the above as inspiration for the contemporary romantic comedy fiction I write. I also have 5 teenage/young adult children 😅

Great limited overs (T20) cricket game between India and South Africa last night. Exciting stuff. Two centuries, lots of sixes.

Well done to the Indian team 👏 They did everything right.

Fantastic weather, too. Cool and clear.
