AND because in this season of life, working as a nurse outside the home with two young kids just doesn’t align for our family. Writing gives me purpose outside of being a mom and helps break up the monotony. #writers #newwriters #writersonsky #writerscommunity #fantasy #fantasybooks #books

it was all the right reasons that i didn't know i already actually knew which forced me to RUN (versus idly walk) entirely away from you

little #poems like these are the kind you'll find in my mixed media memoir: EXUDE (which sports 300+ pgs of #creativewriting #art # illustrated sentiments) 🚀 = THIS DECEMBER *stay tuned 📘🖤*

Tonight’s sunset 🌅

daytime blushes
its last rebel yell
before its seep
into purple surrender

‘I was free to recreate myself’: This American woman says that relocating to France at the age of 80 saved her life | CNN At the age of 80, Carole Carson “screwed up” her courage and flew from California, where she’d lived all of her adult life, to southern France for a new beginning. Four years later, she’s still there.

part of her recreation has been #writing ✍🏽📝🤍 “Something about being freed from expectations of who I was based on who I’d always been, allowed me to be the #writer I’d always wanted to be…” she says. “I was free to recreate myself once again.”

Go Carole!!!

unrip your gaping wounds
and seal your trickles dry,
for you’ve found your whole truth;
and nothing more can make you cry

2 a.m. Thoughts on Femininity A bedtime procrastination reflection

In honor of International Women's Day, I’ve shared a piece written at 2 a.m. while bedtime procrastinating.
Sharing my poetry is an extremely vulnerable step to take; but hey, big dreams require big moves. #substack #poetry #writersonsky #writers

I’m utterly horrified that actual people are downloading and reading my ARC 🫠😬

Just a baby author editing her book (proofreading) listening to it be read by the computer but the voice is so annoying.

#WritersOnSky #IndieAuthors

Over on the clock app, it’s pretty easy finding readers. BlueSky has been great for finding other writers, but not so much readers.

Any tips? Suggestions?

#IndieAuthor #WritersOnSky

Being a writer is getting excited about new notebooks you’ll probably never use.

#WritingCommunity #WritersOnSky

After finishing line edits yesterday, I'm debating what to focus on today. I kinda want a break from editing and would rather go outline book #3 in the series. But I also really need to do the final proofreading edit....So many choices!

What are you working on today?

#WritersOnSky #WritingGoals

Being a writer is re-writing the same sentence 23 times and still hating it.

#WritersOnSky #WritingCommunity #IndieAuthor

I'm finding line edits to be the most tedious type of edit ever.

#writingcommunity #indieauthor #WritersOnSky

Everyday I wake simultaneously terrified and excited that my debut releases in a little over a month.

What’s your favorite book about writing?

I’m torn between Bird by Bird and Writing Down the Bones.

#WritersOnSky #writingcommunity

Getting excited about this little anthology my writing group is working on 🖤

#writingcommunity #writersonsky

Are you sure it’s writers block?

What if your story just needs more time?

Some stories cannot be rushed. Other tumble out of us. No two stories are the same.

#writingcommunity #writersonsky

I think tonight’s goal is to finish Dungeon Crawler Carl Book 1. Well, that is, after I’m done writing.

#writingcommunity #writersonsky

I struggled to write this weekend. And even today. But the more I do it, the easier it is getting. Sometimes starting is the hardest part.

#writingcommunity #writersonsky

My goal this weekend is to make progress on words. I’d love if I could finish the current chapter I’m writing.

What’s your weekend goal?

#WritersOnSky #writingcommunity

One day I will write a mushroom horror romance story because my love of mycology is undying.

If you are trying to write a book while working, parenting, attempting to exercise and eat right, be a good partner or friend, while prepping for the holidays, I’m proud of you 🖤

#writingcommunity #WritersOnSky

It’s Monday! Are you writing today? What are your writing goals?

I’ve already hit 500 words this morning. But if I write 2000 more than I will crack 20K in my current project. We’ll see how the day goes.

#WritingGoals #WritersOnSky #writingcommunity

Did you write today?

I tried to get back in the swing of things after the holiday and hit 1700 words. Feel pretty satisfied with that.

#WritersOnSky #writingcommunity

It is 7:30 PM EST.

How many words can I get in the next hour?

#writingcommunity #WritersOnSky

It’s Tuesday.

What are your writing goals for today?

Mine:
✨ Write between 1000 and 2000 words
