Sometimes old-internet seems like a fever dream. Did it ever exist? Were LiveJournal and VampireFreaks and Newgrounds even real??

AHHH this sounds amazing <3

Old advice I feel no longer works:

* Query in batches
* Wait for feedback before sending out more queries
* Revise if you get no requests
* Don't write YA Fantasy because it's saturated
* Don't write dystopian because it's saturated
* Don't write vampires because it's saturated
* Don't write-

core memory unlocked.

Yeah, same... I love the cozy life-sim parts of RF games, I have other RPGs I play for the RPG-specific elements. I'm really not sure how I feel about the new crossover. It's fun, but is this going to be what future games are like too? Eh...

Hello, I am also one of the five rune factory fans, and... yeah, same.

Why does everyone seem to hate portal fantasy now? Back when I was a teenager, portal fantasy was basically every anime/manga/etc?

car doors are my nemesis

@smossman.bsky.social I am follower 900 I WIN :D (or something)

Forgot to cut my hair for a few years... oops

Drafting up this next scene for the cyberpunk book, and wondering if I've overdone it on the lore & worldbuilding. I tried to explain the plot to someone (who isn't a SFF fan) irl, and they just stared blankly at me for 15 minutes. 😅

As your swap CP, I can verify that your first pages were incredible and I’d love to read more, shoot me an email if you still need betas once you’re done 👀👀

It's day 12 of #CampRevPit, #CRPLunaMoths! It almost seems like it's gone so fast?!

Today's cabin prompt: How did you decide on your MC's name?

(If you sent your feedback swap but haven't gotten any back, ping me and I'll get someone for you to swap with!)

We're over halfway through the second week of #CampRevPit, #CRPLunaMoths! (Storm knocked out my power so I missed a day) 😆

Today's cabin prompt -- what's the next stage for your project after camp? More revisions, querying, self-pub, sharing with friends? Or will you let it rest?

Happy 2nd week of #CampRevPit, #CRPLunaMoths!

Today's question: What's your biggest obstacle to getting time to write? Is it the allure of doomscrolling, your adorable kid/cat/partner, a busy job? Or your own brain? (hi, it me)

That’s really smart! I also find myself seeing things “on paper” that I don’t catch while reading on my laptop.

I kept getting distracted too, my brain is mush tonight and words are hard 😅

That's amazing progress, wow!! Great job!

And that's a wrap! How many words did you get?

Your next sprint leader will be @cullerpictures.bsky.social!

Jacqui writes YA fantasy and will be working on finishing a draft of her mermaid murder mystery. <3

That's always my goal in writing at this time of night, I like feeling accomplished before I go to bed 😄

Got your snack? Great, let's write! 25 minutes, until :55.

#CampRevPit #CampRevPitSprints

(I wrote about 45 and got distracted by my cat headbonking my elbow, oop)

Next sprint begins in 5 minutes, from :30 to :55 - grab some water and meet me back here 👀
