I'd love to know what other #bskywriters think of the new Pages, if you're a Mac user. I've always thought it's like a blank and inviting page, without constant intrusion from the software. But with my new Mac, Pages has changed so much I think it's trying to grow up to be Windows. Not happy.

My dream as a writer is not so much to be a best selling author on the NYTimes best selling list - through that would still be pretty sweet, but is to have people bawling their eyes out because I wrote something that struck so deep inside of them or tore their heart out, they are weeping uncontrollably.  Or they want to throttle me because I wrote an evil cliffhanger that has them crawling the walls, waiting for the next installment. Affecting people that much with one’s writing is such the power trip.

Reviewing my editor’s comments — while she gives me side‑eye and laughs at my trauma — I’m reminded that being a writer is just weaponizing decade‑old humiliation and calling it a career.

In this stark nocturne, grief is rendered with such restraint that its enormity becomes almost unbearable. The poem turns a winter room into a cosmos of ache, where even the drifting stars seem powerless to guide a life undone by absence.

A pumpkin pie and a chess cake cooling on red rubber trivets, on a black-and-white checked tablecloth.

My son asked for pumpkin pie with homemade whipped cream, so I made a QUART of whipped cream. Because if it's not overkill, I'm not doing it right.

Oh, and I'm up to 7 rejections! Happy Thanksgiving Eve!

Question #1
It takes more than just a 
director and actors to make a 
movie or TV show.

Any special picks for certain production roles? Cinematography, Costume Design, Composer, etc?

Who, for what role, and what have they done to make you pick them?

The cover reveal for my sophomore poetry collection, Poems I Shouldn't Write, is coming up on December 6th.

Excited to show off the photography of Sadie Randall and my own design work.

Tell me about a time when you’ve written something that felt “too much.”

Prologues That Work and Why | Jane Friedman Prologues get a bad rap as backstory or info dumps but, done well, they can intrigue readers and ignite interest in the story to come.

If I hear 'never do...' I want to do it. Eg the common writing advice never to use a prologue. Sometimes a prologue is just right, and here are examples from @marykabiaggio.bsky.social on @janefriedman.com janefriedman.com/prologues-th... #WritingCommunity #writingtips #authorlife #bskywriters
