#WriterStuff A2
Weaving is only the latest in a long line of threadcrafts I've explored. Weaving itself hasn't shown up in stories except for a mention here and there, but a different threadcraft, nalbinding, plays a major role in my novel, Planting Life in a Dying City.

Expecting proof copies to arrive today for Looney Lynda and am so excited! Why do I have to work when I could be home waiting for my babies? #Writerstuff #indieauthor #booksky

Gave in and am starting to write it now.

Had this new story idea (again.. yay), and one name I've thought up for it (might just be a placeholder or it might be the permanent name) is Heaven's Hell Show. The name makes more sense with the context of what I've already thought up for it, but I don't wanna give anything away yet.

#WriterStuff A2 There was something about "The Power" that scared me enough that 57 years later, I still remember how scared I was.

that moment when you read some passages of the chapters you post and realize you never dealt with a detail that's still important to the plot and so you go into the epilogue and add it into a scene as if it was planned all along [insert Kronk] #writerstuff #writing #writersunite #inforgettingdetails

Word auto-changing my very human hyphens to the dreaded em dashes 😭 Never hated a punctuation mark so much 😭😂

When my screen looks like this, it's usually a good sign.

The most delightful feeling in the world is overcoming a bout of writer’s block and writing, like, 1000 words. It’s like relief for the soul. #Writing #Writer #ThoughtsWhileWriting #WritingCommunity #WriterSky #WriteSky #BookSky #Author #Books #Book #WritersBlock #Writers #Bookworm #WriterStuff

I've been writing up late for a few days now and my body isn't happy about it. I feel lightheaded and dizzy from not sleeping enough! Man, I wanna keep writing, but I also gotta rest too.

What a weird problem to have. 🥹

Of all things for me to get inspiration for a story from, the Kindergarten games is so far both the oddest and most normal.

Today’s writing was a heap of body horror for MAJESTIC. We do this for fun!

Broke 6k on the #wip! It's good to be back in Marlowe, Massachusetts. #writerstuff #writersky

Doing this whole social media thing where I actually have no idea what I’m doing, but doing it anyway!

So, just haphazardly following people and engaging with stuff … that’s fine, right 🤷🏻‍♀️

Bright orange journal with a pen attached to it; the front of the journal has a sticker of a ghost reading with transparent Star and planet stickers

Close up of the side of the journal, which shows several muted color tabs with letters scrawled on them

The journal and a notepad

Didn’t write in the draft this week BUT I was still productive! I used one of my several blank journals to put all the information and growing lore of Gilded Tempers, including tabs for my convenience lol - just need to add language #writing #authorsky #writerstuff #booksky #writingsky #wip

About 7 minutes into this video, the theme of my novel-in-progress crystallized for me, for the first time (and I've completed multiple drafts and am in revisions now). This understanding will make this current revision the most important one.

#writerstuff

My writing gear and all my current rough draft hard copy.

A sneak peak of actual rough draft copy from Chapter 21.

And yes I’m hand-writing the first one, to cut down on distractions when I’m dreaming. I’ll keep music going or a movie for ambiance, but pen in hand tends to keep me in it and at play. Burning through legal pads and spiral notebooks.

Gotta say; having a 78k word mostly finished WIP and a 3k WIP as contrast really makes me appreciate the scale of what I’ve written so far even when the imposter syndrome is well rested and well armed. #writingcommunity #writerstuff
