A friend gave me a bottle of Prosecco on my birthday in 2025. I held onto it, waiting for good book news.

The bottle started to remind me of what I hadn’t achieved. It weighed on me.

Last night, we opened it. No news yet, but we celebrated life. 🥹

Per usual, life got busy this week with #kids and work. I got behind on my word count for #MarchtotheEnd. I haven't caught up fully yet, but I did break 45K!

It's amazing how a few tweaks in your opening chapters can give you confidence in your #book again.

I hit 30K in my YA wip!! And I have an updated playlist for the next 30-40k. 🥰

I procrastinated starting the next chapter in my wip. There were too many ways to start. Too many feelings to explore.

Then, I started with one aspect of the setting and one sensation and one thought and one feeling. And the chapter took off!

You can never go wrong with chocolate chip 🙌🙌

My #writing vibes for finishing today’s chapter. 💗

I’m virtually attending the Novel Connect Procrastination Hacks for Writers tonight with @scbwirockymtn.bsky.social. I love bringing awareness and ownership to our #writing practice.

Love this!

Plantser - not pantsing or plotting but planting seeds for your wip and seeing if they sprout as you draft the story.

Thoughts?

#writingcommunity #amdrafting #writersofbluesky

I hear this! I am constantly second guessing and rereading, making sure the scene is working.

I think 90% of my time as a #writer is trying to figure out how to end the chapter I felt great about 5 pages ago.

Ahh thanks, Krista. 💗 It's so good to hear from you. I hope all is well!

I had the best of intentions but yesterday turned into one of those days where I struggled with feelings about my pub journey. My partner reminded me of this cartoon. I’m sharing in case anyone else needs a gentle, “Don’t give up.”

Hmmm, scones, cookies, chocolate...hbu?

It's nice to know there are alternatives in life that includes #cats and #books.

What would you choose?

My #book list for last month was very eclectic and fun. Highly recommend each of these!

Me looking at the unfinished draft for the YA #book I started drafting in 2025 and haven't read since last summer. 😱

#amreading CROSS YOUR HEART AND HOPE HE DIES, the second adult mystery rom com by Jenny Elder Moke. And yes, mystery rom com should definitely be a thing.

I feel the same way! Writing out those pictures can be so satisfying.

At a book release party last night, someone asked the author what was their motivation for writing #books.

It's something I've thought about but never put into words. HBU?

#writingcommunity #writerslife #writersofbluesky #booksky

I guess I took a week-long break from SM. It wasn't intentional and then it became intentional. But I'm glad I gave myself some space from everything.

Sometimes, a little space can do us good!

Brainstorming titles and they all have words like foggy, tired, and sleepy. Maybe I just need a nap.
