Itโ€™s fucked up that one of the requirements to be a successful writer nowadays is you have to be hot online. Writers used to have Gremlinโ€™s Privilege. We must retvrn

itโ€™s so funny to me how much writing a book is like making soup. throw everything in the pot, stir it around, boil it down. a real hobbit type of activity

Support your local library, go there. Engage in your community and see what activities they have.

Libraries are awesome.

Writing science fiction involves a lot of Googling your made up alien names in order to check they don't mean something horrendous in a real Earth language
