I want to read this so much 🥺

This biggest mood that ever mooded 😂

One of the cruelest tricks society played on creative people was planting the idea that being proud of your work is somehow unseemly and egotistical.

You made a thing! You like it! You SHOULD be proud of it. Brag all you want!

my secret transgender project… @annehealthcare.bsky.social

Okay, no worries! It’s really chill, like I said like 90% of the members are also socially anxious, there’s not a ton of just random chatter but it’s not all business either. Only one “admin” and she said you’re welcome to come and go or stay, whatever floats your boat. 😊

And yes, no minors. 😂

I’m in a server of ~30 people, all supportive and only pressure upon request 😆 It’s primarily romance/speculative authors, but all genres are welcome. I’d be happy to share the invite, no pressure to even post if you don’t like the vibes. But I understand! A great many of us are socially anxious. 🫂

I think they tried to start a BeNoWriMo (beanowrimo) with a bean as a mascot last year? Year before? I’m not entirely sure, but look into that! Or joining a discord with sprints or getting a critique partner could help. 😊

AI companies going bankrupt and authors getting paid, this is the future I want

I’m honestly so excited for the liberal south to resist, I’ve been waiting for it!

Fan(g)tasy has me rolling 😂 so clever!

I’ve had some really harsh writer’s block the past month or so. Whether it’s the daily stress of life, parenting woes, mental health, or some angry combination, I can’t write a word. 🥺

Criminally under-appreciated 😩🫶🏻

Though I do consider myself to be a marginalized author because I am a member of the 🌈 authors club, I won’t be participating in #dvpit this year. So far, all of my works have been straight-passing. So, I’ll use tomorrow to boost my fellow diverse authors instead! 🫶🏻

One of mine is Narissa! 😂

My little shadow (Ami) is a great #writing buddy. 🖤 #writingcommunity

Ooh love the pronoun tidbit!!

👀 Agender fae, you say? 😏
I’ve always thought the fae would be genderqueer in some way. It just fits! 🤍

I’ve always been a majority plotter, but for this book I’ve been trying to nail down the entire plot before drafting. I like to hand write my plotting.

I’ve already filled 2.5 notebooks with thoughts, revisions, scraps of scenes… and having so much fun! 💙📚

Got halfway through the detailed outline of my new project and wrote the first chapter. I’m so excited about it, it’s my favorite I’ve written so far! Very voicey, dual POV, action-packed and lots of fun!

One of my very good friends got a full request and follow up scheduling The Call within two weeks of querying. She sent exactly ONE query, ever, and that was it. My joyous envy overfloweth!

She needs to sell merch at this point 😂

#AmQuerying #WritingCommunity

I think it’s this one for me. It gives so much information, too! 🤯

A still of an anime. (Is this __? viral meme.) A white man with short black hair looks pleased, gesturing at a picture of a raven. Caption reads: Chloe: Is this a boyfriend?

Viral meme of rapper Drake. Top picture he has his hand up, cringing away from the text, which reads, “Confront your husband about his drinking and plate-throwing problem.” Bottom picture he close-lip smiles with closed eyes, pleased, pointing to the text, which reads, “Go to bed and lucid dream to escape into imagination.”

Viral meme of Steve Harvey juxtaposed with himself. Left, he is laughing uproariously and right, he presses his knuckles to his mouth and appears highly concerned. Caption reads: “When you finally escape the doorless room full of spiders but find a woman who’s either sleeping or dead and a dude you think was your lover in a past life”

Viral “Do it Kermit” meme. Muppet Kermit the Frog faces a version of himself wearing a black hood, mouth slightly open. The caption reads: Brain: flirt with scary raven man Chloe: I can’t flirt with Yuta, I’m married! Brain: ur asleep, he’s a figment of ur imagination Chloe: It feels too real to be just a dream Brain: ur husband sucks Brain: he’s abusive Brain: raven man say nice word

Ever wish you could punch your ex in his smug mouth? Not worth jail time (or contact)? Live vicariously!

Jake (fkboi name): alcoholic representing the cycle of abuse
Chloe: ever-hopeful wilted flower who learns to trust herself (and load a punch like a bullet)

Yuta: 🥵🐦‍⬛💁🏻‍♂️

A collage of photos: a classic red Vermont farmhouse in autumn, with a low stone wall in the foreground; the title of the novel, “This Ends Now”; a dark-haired woman floating face upwards in water, surrounded by white flowers, her eyes open; a blazing bonfire at nightfall; an old map showing a portion of Northern Vermont, the book’s setting; the interior of Yale University’s Sterling Memorial Library, showing a Gothic cathedral-like entrance with a phrase from the novel superimposed, stating: “Not all safety is safe. Sometimes the world is being kept safe from you.”; a man’s hand clasping a woman’s hand showing her wedding ring, with a snow-covered fir tree in the background.

The pitch for the book “This Ends Now”: A serial husband-ditcher must confront her toxic first love who wrote her escape-artist playbook before she can finally embrace herself within the relationship she deserves. These words are superimposed upon a picture of a woman with dark hair in quarter-profile, looking out a window. Light from the window illuminates what we see of her profile. There is a dream-like quality to the image, as if the woman is caught in deep thought.

A collage of three book covers which are presented as comparative titles to This Ends Now: “The Paper Palace,” by Miranda Cowley Heller; “The Wedding People,” by Alison Espach; and “Sandwich,” by Catherine Newman.

THIS ENDS NOW: Matrimonial escape artist Lainey is finally ready to stop running from good men. But first she must disarm her brilliant, merciless ex who programmed her to bolt from love—and whose poisonous ghost still sabotages her every chance at happiness. #A #WF #Q #QuestPit

two muscular men’s arms clasp hands in the epic handshake meme. the text on the dark-skinned arm reads “neurodivergent Black woman academic”, the text on the light-skinned arm reads “well-meaning white lady reality TV casting director”. both join hands with the text “launch that knucklesucker into space”

An anti-capitalist workplace comedy where an unlikely duo use personality tests and mind games to find contestants who want to win a one-way trip to Mars in a reality TV team competition.

But the only person they can agree to launch into space is the techbro showrunner.
