I cannot understate how difficult it is as a writer—or for any creative, really—to accurately judge your own work. One day I'll read what I wrote and be like "this is the best thing ever!" and another day I'll read the same and be like "this is terrible, why do I even bother?" #authorthoughts #ouch
You know it's terrifying when it's not even the first day of Spring yet and we've already broken 100 degrees Fahrenheit 😱

Is my character intentionally self sabotaging or am I? Who knows.

"If it bleeds, we can kill it" you have clearly not heard of the eldritch entity The Infinite Bleeder 😀👍

You know, something I never considered in a fantasy world is when it comes to armor, how would a male blacksmith take the measurements of a woman? Like is it just accepted that it would happen or would there be hesitation from both sides.

I'm curious about something. Should merfolk be considered part of the beastfolk race, or their own separate race? Something I started thinking about when I sat down to think about how races interact in my story

I hate this feeling that there are simply not enough hours in a day. There's also this dreaded thought that if there were... Even more of that time would end up having to be used working hard to earn enough money to survive. #WritersBlog #WriterThoughts #AuthorThoughts #JustThoughts #WordsToTheVoid
Do you ever have a concept for a character that just refuses to let you go?
That's me with a beastkin seer who uses ghosts and wisps as a way to enhance her own shows as an idol.

if this is supposed to be justified… then how exactly do we reconcile this with Matthew 22 & 25?
answer: we can’t.

mine is the lack of privacy that fame brings. having a larger audience and platform is great until more of what you do and say is visible. But it’s the trade-off to having a platform to do good and raise awareness for shit nobody talks about but needs to.

Are there any names out there, male or female, that are pronounced differently between languages or even within a language? For example Caroline/Carolina.

I think I want to do a post on jealousy in fictional relationships because some of these characters pass from jealousy to toxic possessiveness.

The best part of writing sci-fi?
Turning what if into what’s next.
Every story starts with a single question, “What if the ocean could think?"

Mystery writing is all about the twist 🔄. My dad gave me my first one—he told me to swap the “obvious” killer in Murder on Russian Hill for someone who seemed innocent but had the deeper motive. 💀📚

I saw advice about using MS Word's Read Aloud for manuscript polish, but I didn't realize it'd be good for more than just spotting typos.
My book sounds good. Like a real book I'd enjoy reading. Low Self-Esteem Brain doesn't know how to process this.

Every book I write feels like I’m leaving little pieces of myself scattered across the pages. Do you ever wonder what part of you your readers might find between the lines?

If you don’t like my books, that’s okay. I am not for everyone. Just as not every book is for me. And that’s okay…. I remind myself while drinking coffee and working on the next story I’m writing for me. #authorthoughts
