Get Your Words Out!

A text I just sent that was probably lifted from @tacobellquarterly.org's feed:

"Only one way to be certain it won't be good enough: Not writing it."

Write a story with a sunflower, a book, a diary, and a fireplace. #writingprompt

Use your words.

Last line: Somewhere, a cat shut its eyes, and slept, unaware of the events unfolding. #writingprompt

Every now and then when I think I'm not making enough progress on a book, I look back at my list of published books and consider that I've had this same thought with every single one of them. (Even the short or very short ones. Getting them right takes time.)

Yay! We're so happy to have you 💖20% is definitely nothing to sneeze at! 🥳

google why must you do this to us 😭

Honestly, I think it has. We had a couple people with a kit of trouble last month.

Fuck, I love writing. The feeling of getting a scene just right? Getting those emotions on paper (well, screen) and nailing it? 😩👌 genAI could never.

I'm going to say this again in case you haven't heard this one: I was a talented writer and it did *nothing whatsoever* because I hadn't put in the work, and I put in the work for ten years (subtracting the bit where I had to quit for my mental health) to write Witchmark

talent alone could *never*

There is no Saturday for you. Go write your book
