Focused on reading and storytelling today. Got some good notes on having a decent message, but being too on the nose, ruining the message. Gotta be able to guide your audience to draw the message out of the conclusion of clues provided in the story. #storytelling #writing #reading

Spent the day at a student dental clinic getting my teeth cleaned for the first time in ten years. While it was scary and uncomfortable, my dental student was great and did well with the mess that is my teeth! #DentalCare #teethcleaning

I live right next to a highway (literally, it's all you can see outside my bedroom window). Sometimes, I just watch the cars go by, kind of like people watching. Where are they going? Are they on their phone? What kinds of problems are they facing today? #amwriting #inspiration

Didn't fall asleep until five am this morning so didn't accomplish much that I hoped I would get done today. I'm not done for today but can't help but feel like I've fallen short for the day. #amwriting

Spending my Saturday evening with family! Family is a central focus in a lot of my stories and I can't help but blame my own family for influencing this direction in my writing. #amwriting #writer #familytime

Still unsure of how much better I'll be at posting on here, but it's definitely a goal I have. I want to be where the people are! #writer #amwriting #socialnetworking

Feeling a bit better the last couple of days. Hope I can find my rhythm again and get back onto a decent writing schedule. #amwriting #mentalhealth

For those unaware, I have Schizo-affective disorder. This means I have symptoms of both schizophrenia and a mood disorder (mine is depression). What triggers my symptoms is stress and instability. Due to this, my symptoms are flaring up. So I will abstain posting until I stabilize. #disabledwriter

Due to the general state of my country right now, I don't know if I can write, when I will be able to write, and if I do write it will be fleeting and sweetly short. Once things stabilize, I will too, and then I plan to get back at it. #notwriterslife #disabilityflairup #schizowriter

Spent the day at the dentist and then spent all my free time trying to recuperate my regular daily activities. Unfortunately, I ran out of steam before I got to writing. #writerslife

My writing still isn't quite up to where I want it to be in quantity every day, but something is better than nothing, right? #amwriting #writing

Finally have had enough of a break for my burn out with my main WIP, so we're back to the grind on draft 2! #amwriting #writing

Finally on the upswing from this cold I got. I can do a little, but still have a ways to go before I'm back to 100%.

Don't ask me how but I was able to park my truck without hitting any neighbor's through a foot and a half tall icy drift of snow from when they cleared the lot of my apartment complex. #blessed #fuckthatshit

My favorite way to confuse readers is to write a bisexual character. "Wait, aren't they gay?" "Wait, I thought he was straight!" BOO BITCH, IT'S BISEXUALITY

She sits on the porch
Smoking
Enjoying the cold
Because she knows
She can come back inside
And Warm up
And it feels like a luxury
Not to be
At the mercy of the weather
Choice
At the root of pleasure

Set aside time everyday that you save for writing and stick to it. Some days will suck, write anyway. Some days you can't get the story to stop long enough for a break. Consistently showing up to write on both those types days is the key to becoming a better writer. #amwriting #writing #consistency
