Who else is watching Apple Cider Vinegar?

Why do the USA have to do a remake of every successful show/movie in a foreign country?
FYI: the original show for The Agency is called the bureau 🇫🇷, the one for High Potential is called HPI 🇫🇷too. On streaming platforms. And originals are way better!

1/2 🦋You know where we get it all wrong? It’s when we want to connect here with women around our age only. Connections with younger & older women will bring you a different perspective and wisdom 🌺

Treat artists like humans. If you're commissioning artists, communicate with them about your expectations and questions. Keep in mind that one month is a FAST turnaround with how much work artists do outside of drawing the art, and the lives and struggles we have outside of our jobs.

And then I’m exhausted for the day 😂
Too many ingredients in the brew, I need to figure out which way I want to go.

Good morning! I was at Pilates at 6am. Too tired to be creative today…but my brain is definitely brewing something

Sunrise, 1 red house roof in the foreground, 2 palm trees, skyline of the city

Pilates studio with 1 reformer, 1 carriage, 1 spine corrector and the stretch thingy

Colourful hibiscus flowers in front of a pool: the flower facing is pink and peach, the flower turning its back is yellow, orange and pink

My early morning in photos. Now that I ate my breakfast, I need to feed my 4 pets, see my dietitian, and put the bins outside. Then, maybe I will have time to paint and/or write. But since I need to eat every 2-3 hours, it’s difficult to get in the zone!

What a scare though! I went to the beach last week, and swam the same way you do because I’m terrified of sharks 🦈

Thank you ☺️

Photo of colourful houses (orange, blue, red, and yellow) on a wharf in front of the water

Here’s a photo I took this morning of the Waterview Wharf Workshops. They are beautiful, but it’s better to take a photo from the ferry, since the wharf is private and people are literally working in the workshops.

Oh no! At least the surgery helped. Do you wear wrist braces sometimes?

On my to-buy-list then!
Btw, do we have a group or a hashtag here?

Take care! I struggled with my wrists for a few years, but it was mostly coming from my neck (tension)

Thank you ☺️

Thank you ☺️

#Artists in Australia, who are the best printers for reproduction, cards, notebook covers, etc?
I’ve been trying to figure out but the gate keeping culture is at another level here.

Thank you ! I need to get back my momentum ☺️

Time to re-watch the Terminator franchise and its skynet. Remember that speculative fiction is always rooted in reality.

Thank you! Being ADHD, I’m likely to digress to something entirely different is I don’t plan the rest. Yet, thinking of planning the rest has paralysed me for the last few years 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thank you! My big issue is how to write 75,000 more words. I wrote my first and last chapters years ago. It could be a short story like that but I always thought it was a novel. I need to find material to write the middle, or let go & start over with a new idea.

Beautiful 🤩

Thank you!

Writers: what would be your top advice for writing a novel?
I love writing short stories but I’m paralysed at the idea of writing a novel (I blame it on my #ADHD )

I’ve never tried it either

Thank you!

Happy to see familiar faces here! Ohhh, I’ve never tried Melbourne Grey (Earl Grey is my favourite tea)

I deleted Twitter years ago. I tried Mastodon and forgot about it, Threads and forget about it. Now I’m here waiting to see what will happen.
I keep my FB for overseas friends & family, and IG because it took me 10 years to grow it, but there’s no community anymore. Hoping this replaces both 🤞

My hand holding a light blue positivity journal

I just received the positivity journal I ordered from @cleverfoxplanner . It’s going to be a must have for 2025, I fear. Let’s stay positive and take care of our mental health!

OMG! I can’t believe how many #writers are on 🦋
It looks like I miss out big time on what was happening for the last year or so.
Let’s reconnect!
