Not necessarily “broad” but “vague” (another favorite of mine) is one that i use far more often

things i’ve learned since locking in to write

1. bookcon will be making an appearance at comic con this year
2. bookcon themselves are hosting an indie author alley
3. guess who will be going to find the booth to ask questions about said artist alley

Text from WIP

“Heavens,” she muttered, “what crawled up your shirt and died this morning?”
	“My patience,” he sighed.
	“Well, I hate to break it to you, but it’s not like I can hold my breath that long from your house to the building. I’d pass out if I did that.”
	Magic only shrugged. He turned his attention to the dried out bread roll in his hands and dribbled it between his palms. “That sounds like a personal problem.”
	“I’m not just going to stop breathing, Magic,” Mira huffed. “Unless you want me to put a buffer between my face and the microphone.”
	“That’s what I do—at least, in the wintertime. I like using a scarf instead of pulling my jacket over my face.”
	“It’s not cold enough for that, though. Don’t those things turn off?”
	“They do. But contrary to popular belief, I do like speaking to you.”
	Mira laughed, followed shortly by an eye roll. “It’d be nice if you acted like it every now and again. Sometimes I think you enjoy speaking to Mister Oreson’s bird more than me.”
	A rare smile twitched on her brother’s lips. His hair wavered in the slight breeze as he shook his head with a low chuckle. “Treble doesn’t sass me everyday or insist that I climb old buildings in my spare time.”

also hi everyone i saw the new httyd recently and loved every second of it

and in doing so also realized that i found myself a reference for my wonderfully sad boy that i occasionally post about here but in case you don’t remember here he is sassing his sister

i don’t often post about the book tours i go to, but maybe i should start doing it because these events give me more motivation to actually write than anything else as of recent

chaos ensues and plot unravels as a result of this conversation

going backwards to catch up but here’s a bit of a small, sad one

but if it’s any consolation, mira and her father not only have a much better relationship but have probate or of my favorite relationships in this particular world #WIPSnips

Coming back to this with a loophole answer #WIPSnips

Because I have the pleasure of having one of my main characters named Magic, so this word pops up EVERYWHERE

i just have to *keep* reminding myself that it’s something that can be fix—and IS fixable—because i care far too much about this silly little world and goofballs that live in it too much to let it go to waste (despite that urge to delete the whole thing)
