Idc what the rest of the headline says if it isn’t “inside a couch”
Just got home after poodle sitting for 4.5 days. Life’s been a bit crazy lately, but still writing.
Friendly reminder that if you use gen AI to make your stuff, YOU did not make it. You prompted it.
A writer writes, an editor edits, an artist draws (etc). Gen AI is the antithesis of creativity.
Like, you’re not a chef, you’re presenting a (stolen) microwave meal and want applause for it.
It's also Dinosaur Day! Post a dinosaur! 🦕🦖

Was hoping you would play this one! Can't wait to watch.
Small black cat seated on her hind legs with front paws clawing the dark box spring under a mattress, staring at the person behind the camera to make sure she's witnessing her destruction.
My relationship with my cat is complicated. We’re super best friends. We’re rivals who are obsessed with each other. She’s a piece of my soul. We are also in the midst of a centuries-long feud. Don’t ask me to explain it any more than that but know we're perfect for each other. #Catsky #cat
Me at least once a week: How do these random strings of letters and numbers keep ending up in my manuscript? 😩
My cat on my keyboard at least once a day:

If you see this, post a sword 🗡️
Posting the one on the wall of the room I write in.
I have notes in random places as well. And sometimes I stumble upon them months later and ask myself when I wrote that down 🫠
And I have to hang them up because that little black cat will rub up against them or erase them with her butt.
Picture shows a bedroom with a black laptop, headphones and a tablet with a small black cat resting next to it on a bed with a light green comforter. On the wall are five different whiteboards with writing in various colors.
Part of my writing process involves white boards. I use them to jot down thoughts/impressions/bits of lore to keep in mind over the coming days as I write/edit. And I display them on the wall so that I can read them shortly after waking up, before I go to bed and a few times during the day. #writing
It'll never stop making me feel insane that writers are made to feel crazy for appropriately valuing their craft while guys who haven't written an email on their own in three years are painting themselves as essential to the future
post a gif of who you wanted to be as a little kid ✨
Does this count?

Happy 13th birthday to my little gremlin Norah Jones! She’s such a funny, cranky, sassy wee thing and I’m super lucky to be her human bean. #cat #catsky #blackcat

She turns 13 years old tomorrow and this is her first of many bday treats!

Me when a minor side character suddenly has a more prominent role. Where did you come from? And are you going to behave? No? Well, you're among friends then.

Sorry it took me so long to respond to this. Finished the book!!
I think I'm going to work on a side project for a week or two just to give myself a break from the world I've been in for 2.5 years. Something contemporary and light in comparison to the fantasy. I have a few ideas bouncing around!
It's a mixture at this point. Excited because it means I can finally start on Book 2. Emotional because I see how far I've come since I started the project. My characters have come a long way, their progression has left me stunned. And I've grown a lot as a writer in the meantime. <3
When you've spent 2.5 years writing this book and you're nearing the end of the complete draft that you've always dreamed of. It's coming together beautifully and it's wrecking me emotionally in the best way.
