🥹🥹🥹 this brilliant crew/writing hive mind has been such an incredible gift ❤️
Ugh I wish. I’d love to fall asleep and somehow fix plot holes 😂
This first writing sprint was started (and finished) from the comfort of bed. V unsure how good the words were, feels like I was sleepsprinting 😴🏃🏻♀️

13 hours later and I’ve submitted my 100 words for the @nycmidnight.bsky.social microfiction challenge ! 😮💨
And thank god for @aswiftauthor.bsky.social + @alexishatcher.bsky.social for support, non-judgment, and tolerance of my antics 🫠 I’ve never felt more annoying or loved

LOL! as a MG fantasy writer, I’m sure we have very different (but equally embarrassing) search histories 😂
Accidentally used my work computer to do a Google search for my new WIP. 😬
Counting the minutes till HR emails asking why I’m looking for “how quickly bodies decompose if not embalmed”? 👀 💀

These pens are LOVELY

45 def requires a fuel break 👀
Early morning drafting thoughts: At what point does a writing sprint become a writing long run?
30 min? 45? 🏃🏻♀️⏳
