Thank you, Lucy!

Ever wish you could just disappear into a fictional world?

#writersky

• Pros of being a dragon rider: free travel, built-in heater, zero unwanted visitors.
• Cons: dragon food = $$$, singed eyebrows, constant detours for shiny things.

#amwriting #romantasy

•Current status: Trapped beneath a decade of worldbuilding notes and at least three versions of the same scene.
•Cause: Overambition and an unchecked TBR (To Be Revised) pile.

On the bright side, this is the closest I’ve come to being literally consumed by my work.

Writing is just staring at a blank page, typing five words, deleting three, getting a snack, and repeating until you have a book.

Writing helps me heal—turning pain into stories gives me power over it. Words mend wounds, one by one.

#amwriting #writersky

Taking a mental health day today. Hoping this helps. 🤞🏻

Me: *creates the perfect book in my head*
Also me: writes “The moon was… very moonish. It mooned in the moonlight.”

#amwriting #writersky

Write the wound first.
Then let the story bleed.

#amwriting #writersky

Me: *carefully outlines story*
Characters: That’s cute. Anyway… *sets plot on fire and runs off*

Some days, writing feels like channeling pure genius. Other days, I Google ‘synonym for walk’ for 20 minutes.

If you don’t know what happens next, add a dragon.

Finding Time to Write:
• Hide in the bathroom. “Digestive issues.”
• Type under the covers. Fake nap = real words.
• Write in meetings. Nod. Look thoughtful.
• Dictate while cooking. Hope your characters like “stir occasionally.”
• Lie. “One more minute” is a lifestyle.

#amwriting #writersky

Reasons I hate writing today:
• My characters have unionized.
• Every sentence sounds like a sleep-deprived raccoon wrote it.
• Plot? Never met her.
• My brain is offering great dialogue—for a different book.
• The blank page is judging me.

Most days, writing is like clawing my way up a mountain with nothing but stubbornness and caffeine.
But today?
Today it felt like I was flying.

#writersky #romantasy

Writing a sarcastic protagonist is all fun and games until she starts roasting me for the plot choices. Like, sorry for the angst, maybe try being in a cozy romance next time??
#writersky #romantasy

Yes! It’s jolting to go back to the real world

Just looked up from my manuscript and realized I forgot the real world existed. Apparently people need food? And sleep??

#amwriting #romantasy

Ever try to write, but your brain decides it's time for a full-on mental road trip? Struggling today.

#amwriting #writersky

Dear Author,
Done is better than perfect.
Finish the damn WIP.
STOP CHASING PERFECTION.

Love,
Your Next Book

#amwriting #writersky

Nothing like squeezing in a chapter before the 9–5 grind. Just enough time to wreak a little havoc before emails take over.

#writersky #romantasy

A writer turns silence into stories and dreams into reality.

#amwriting #romantasy

New characters should be introduced with asterisks:
*Expect snark
**Might steal your heart and run away with it
*** Don't get attached. This character dies in 100 pages

#amwriting #writersky

Me: This manuscript is finally getting off ground! If I stay focused, I can actually get this finished--
💭💥Shiny new idea💭💥: But what about a NEW STORY WHERE THE GIRL IS THE DRAGON

#amwriting #romantasy

Reasons to date a fae prince:

• He's literally glowing, cheekbones sharper than his daggers.

• Who needs a house when he can conjure a palace?

• Will 100% vow to love you ‘til the stars collapse.

• Pranks the entire court, but only lets you win.

#amwriting #romantasy

You know what my wish is? It's not to be famous or a best seller believe it or not. I just want a few people to read my book and go, "hey, I really enjoyed that." and move on with their lives. I want to be a stone they stand on while in this crazy ocean called life.

Spent an hour crafting the perfect dramatic reunion scene—only to realize I killed one of the characters two chapters ago.

Ghost reunion, I guess?

#amwriting #writersky

Risks of writing about dragons:
1. Unhealthy opinions on hoarding laws
2. Side-eyeing pet lizards
3. Googling ‘how hot is dragon fire?’ at 2 AM
4. Expecting treasure under random mountains

Send help. Or gold. Gold works too

#amwriting #romantasy

Keep writing, even when doubt creeps in. ✨ One sentence at a time. One scene at a time. You’ve got this!
