I especially like the 'I hate that in real life' - no worries it just won't exist in my fantasy world 🤣😆#ukteenchat

I suppose it's similar to what I've started to do more recently. It's good to know you can still play & be surprised. Still sounds complex. But I suppose writing fantasy has it's own problems. You read & write enough of it & I guess any genre would look less scary to plot. #ukteenchat

Um shouldn't your answer be getting to be a guest on #ukteenchat is the best thing about being a writer!? 😳🤣

My husband may agree with you & to be fair there's lots of great things from the 70s. And 60s. But I think everyone has a decade their heart is with.
September 16, 2025 at 7:40 PM
I think I would be useless at having to no everything upfront and lay all the clues down. It's like an extreme version of plotting & I'm not a natural at even easy plot structures. I'm in awe of the ability to do what you do! #ukteenchat

I was (am) a massive Buffy & Angel fan 😍 #ukteenchat If that was the 90s then that is definitely in the decade's favour 😁

I have to say my heart & nostalgic favourite is the 80s. I absolutely loved 'Mix Tape' for that reason. But I have some fond early 90s memories too. #ukteenchat

I left school after A levels in 93 or 94 so my real love is the 80s & early 90s #ukteenchat

Ha! Completely understandable 😉🤣

I know - the fact there was no wifi and no mobile phones is beyond comprehension to my two too 🤣 #ukteenchat
And hi back 👋@cynthiamurphyya.bsky.social There are good things about your 40s but as I rush towards 50 I seem constantly reminded I am getting old 🙈🤣
September 16, 2025 at 7:23 PM
Ah it must be because I turned up for the first time in a while 😜😆#ukteenchat
September 16, 2025 at 7:18 PM
Historical seems to be most things now I'm in my late 40s 🙈#ukteenchat

Hmmm… quick tips: Keep writing. Keep putting your stuff out there. Grow your rejection rhino skin. Write what you love - not what you think others will love - and you words will find their place xx

Oh! And write what you love. You will edit it SO many times, you really have to love it. Writing is re-writing and you have to have a whole lot of heart in there to keep pulling something apart and putting it back together again.
