Guya Maican (is querying ✍️🏾📚)

I signed my name in Nov 2001.
By Apr 2002, I was in uniform.

9/11 didn’t just change the world—
it changed my path.
I carry its fire still.

Every draft, every edit, every late night adds to the legacy.

Progress isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s just steady, page by page.

I got my first reject a week ago. It took me down for a minute. But I realized I was just getting started.

Every book has its secret ingredients.
Mine?
Wine. Late nights. And giving my characters a look when they start making choices I didn’t approve in the outline.

What fuels your creativity?

Tomorrow is Lion’s Gate — a cosmic alignment for expansion, clarity, and stepping into what you’ve been building for lifetimes.

For me, that means more than just writing.
It’s writing with intention.
Every scene, every character, every twist is a spell cast for the future I’m walking into.

I have officially entered the querying trenches.
No panic. No noise.

Just precision. Alignment. Intention.

May the right 1s feel the fire behind the pages.
May the rest step aside.

Ok real quick—
Yes, I missed last week.
I got my edits back from my editor & fully disappeared n2 the work. One blink later, it was the weekend.
I didn’t forget y’all. I just time-traveled through revision mode. 💻🔥

Now I’m back—with 2 many ideas, not enough bodies, and the same fire driving it all.

I was never here to be liked.
I was here to light the damn map.

This Pride, I’m not reflecting. I’m declaring.
This is my design.
This is my daimon.
This is my divine.

After much outlining, much plotting and much planning, I can now honestly say 4 chapters of 📖 2 are more complete. #writer #author

Happy Spring Equinox

Annnnnd ofc. A bi$h takes a nap and wakes up with a whole new story. Why does this keep happening to me?? (Don't take me seriously, I love when this happens. I just get mad cuz I can't write it all fast enough.) #writer #writingcommunity #author #skywriter #writerlife

Trying to come up with a name for a side character but the name needs to be very unique. I want the MC to love her name so much she says it all the time just so she can hear it. I'm struggling. I want it to start with a B #writingcommunity #writer #skywriter #author #writerlife

Happy Full Moon in Virgo and Lunar Eclipse. 💋🪄✨️

I thought I only wrote 100 words, today. Turns out it was more at 300. Yay!! Go me #writer #author #writingcommunity #skywriter

We don't. The oldest left today at 15 and a half years. Youngest at 11 years. The oldest, 2 days before my birthday.

Both my princes are over the rainbow bridge. Miko ( #yorkie), Sept last year. Fuji ( #shihtzu), today. 💔💔🌈🐶

Very

These memes don't have to be so loud about this.

😂😂mine is "sighed". He sighed, she sighed, everybody sighs

Jesus it was like watching an episode of The Handmaid's Tale almost. Except this is REAL real.

I experienced this on a deployment once. Considering what happened the following week due to an attack, yes I would say it is good luck.

Listennnnnnnnn #skywriter #author #writingcommunity #writer

So next month is my birthday month. The birthday present I am giving to myself is to write each synopsis for each book idea I have. 12-13 synopsis. HBD to me. #writer #author #writingcommunity #skywriter

You could say the initials. C.W.

First time for everything isn't it??

Now why you do this? Now I gotta go find it
