Never underestimate the motivational power of reading a book you think is not good. "I can do better than that" has some serious writer oomph.

Can't believe I finally got to watch @criticalrole.bsky.social on a Thursday night 😍🥰

Thank you for coming to Sydney!! I hope we turned out for you as much as you turned out for us.

My fave pics from the night. No spoilers I hope!!

Vigorously lol

I got a D*tton leaflet in the mail yesterday and I saw the words "follow Tr*mp's leadership" on it and immediately held it within two fingers like it was toxic to put it in the outdoor garbage bin. no other major party leaflet yet though 🙃

Oh, I've been so busy with real life work and real life anxiety that I totally missed questpit coming up! I am so not in a good mental place to participate but I'm gonna go on a liking spree 🥰

I've devised an "Ultimate Pitch" from the most used words in #SmallPitch pitches:

[Protagonist] meets father; two must save world in time and find way home. Life story, family secret, new friend, past love, and magic help.

Tell me yours!!

Honestly I'm intrigued by the concept though

I got a #SmallPitch request!! 🫣🫣🫣

Already cut 1500 words... 🫣

Anyone else who submitted to #SmallPitch suddenly having a weird paranoia that their manuscript isn't finished *enough*, polished *enough*, and doing one more manic round of edits?

Just me, then?
