Babe: βYou were rightβ¦ I feel the heat radiating off you.β
did he just call me hot? π #spaceheaterotter #gaylove
Kinda sad that in 2025 I get more validation from #AI than family. But it still doesnβt change how deserving I am of belonging.

to the woman at Walmart who stared at my disabled bf hobbling to get a cart, I hope you know I saw and meant that enthusiastic wave when we walked away. Have a good day now.

As a #neurodivergent human this hits hard. Existing is exhausting, so just getting to the point of having the time or space to create is half the battle. Not to mention when my brainβs already down for the count.

Top Tip for Writers:
Save Everything, Especially the Cuts
Create a βCutsβ file for deleted lines, scenes, or dialogue. You never know what might bloom later.
Think of it as creative compost. Nothing goes to waste. π±

Writing is an act of faith, not a trick of grammar. - E.B. White ~ Background shows a photo of a woman wearing a shawl sitting under a tree next to a small waterfall, taken with a blur giving the sunlight and tree a fantasy type/style feel.
First drafts in a novel are always a rough and tumble of ideas. It always takes a spot of time away to come back and really realize what's there to revise. - Wrtr #amwriting #amediting #Writing #author #writer ~ #authorsky
Congrats! πππΌ
