My dream is to one day write a book that gets someone so hyped they gotta write a paragraph just to express their experience with it. #Writing #WriteSky #BookSky #WritingCommunity #Writer #Books #Author #Dream #Goals #Writers #CreativeWriting #Reading #Write #Read #WriterSky #ThoughtsWhileWriting
If college taught me anything, it’s that you don’t always have to be good at any particular task. You just have to be consistent and punctual. #Writing #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #BookSky #College #Writer #Author #Books #Academia #Writers #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Education #WritingAndBooks #Bookworm
It’s a cold and rainy Saturday— perfect for staying indoors and writing all day. This is my favorite weather. #Rainy #ThoughtsWhileWriting #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky #Rain #Saturday #Writer #Books #Author #Introvert #Cold #Writing #RainyDay #Write #Favorite #WriterSky #Editing #Editorial
How dare my calling card be The Fool? The Tarot acts like I’m really good at starting projects like writing a book and awful at asking myself how tough the road may be and— ah… #Tarot #Writing #WriteSky #BookSky #Funny #WritingHumor #TheFool #Humor #Writer #Author #Books #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Write
I make so many headcannons about my OCs and then I remember I am the one in charge of what’s canon. I’m the author of this book. That’s power. And I’m drunk on it. #Writing #ThoughtsWhileWriting #CreativeWriting #WritingCommunity #OCs #Headcannons #WritingHumor #OriginalCharacters #WriteSky #BookSky
Writers are all so prone to imposter syndrome, so I love that, even when we are critiquing each other, it comes from a desire to want to see the other person eventually succeed. #WritingCommunity #Writing #Writers #Author #WriteSky #BookSky #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Books #Writer #ImposterSyndrome
My work in progress has led me to having to research how to treat a knife wound. Which is a bold choice since I am squeamish and faint at the sight of blood, even in pictures. #WIPWednesday #Writing #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Squeamish #WritingHumor #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky #Funny #Humor
The most delightful feeling in the world is overcoming a bout of writer’s block and writing, like, 1000 words. It’s like relief for the soul. #Writing #Writer #ThoughtsWhileWriting #WritingCommunity #WriterSky #WriteSky #BookSky #Author #Books #Book #WritersBlock #Writers #Bookworm #WriterStuff
I have reached whatever elusive age it is in which I go “oof” any time I try and stand. #Humor #Funny #ThoughtsWhileWriting #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky #WritingHumor #Age #Oof #Comedy #Writer #Author #WriterSky #Writing #WriterBlog #Books #Book #WritersCommunity #Bookworm #NotWriting
“Why does my back hurt?” I ask, hunched over at my desk like a shrimp who learned how to type. #Humor #Funny #Posture #PostureCheck #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriterSky #WriteSky #BookSky #Writer #Author #books #book #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Desk #Shrimp #BadPosture #WritingHumot #BookWorm #Writers
There are few things that hit quite as hard as hyperfixating on a task and then drinking water for the first time in hours and you feel your heart beating and like you can breathe again. #Hyperfixation #Writing #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Neurodivergent #Adhd #ActuallyADHD #WriteSky #WritingCommunity
I have tried every day for the past week to do the 5am Writer’s Club. I have failed to get up at 5am every time. What’s the trick? I can’t get my butt up that early and I so want to!! #WritingCommunity #ThoughtsWhileWriting #EarlyMorning #5amWritingClub #Morning #Writing #Author #WriteSky #BookSky
There’s no good reason that the words ‘bear’/‘bare’ cover so much ground. I am never fully confident when I’m trying to use that word. Bear with me. #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Words #Author #WriterSky #WriteSky #BookSky #Vocabulary #Bear #Bare #WritingStruggles #Spelling #WritingHumor #Funny #Humor
Fiction is so wonderful because I get to experience so much for such little expenditure. Sure, one can never replace the value of traveling somewhere— but when money is tight, adventure is adventure. #fiction #writing #writesky #booksky #historicalfiction #thoughtswhilewriting #author #book #books
My cat, Niv, who is a white with grey patches over her back and face, sitting in a box she is too big for. She is leaning just a little bit out of it with her eyes all big and wide like she's either asking a question or judging me. Probably both.
My cat is giving me that look. That “Hey, shouldn’t you be writing right now?” look. Listen, Niv, I’m doing my best. #Cat #CatSky #Caturday #CoWriter #Writing #WritingHumor #Funny #Cute #AltText #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky #Writer #Author #Book #Humor #ThoughtsWhileWriting #CuteCats #MyCat
Editing is a labor of love. When I leave a paper bleeding with edits, it is not because I thought the piece was bad. I didn’t mark your manuscript up because I hated it, I marked because I loved enough to make it shine!! #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Editing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #BookSky #Writing
My dumbass thought “self-shipping” was about shipping a character with themselves (think Onceler or like Link x Dark Link or something.) I didn’t think at all it was about self insert fanfiction. #WritingCommunity #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Writer #Writing #Shipping #Selfship #Fandom #Funny #Humor #Ship
As a manuscript evaluator, I pray everyday that writers remember that there is more to intimacy between characters than just sex.

I think writers are in a toxic relationship with sleep. Either we don’t have enough of it, or we are guilting ourselves for sleeping and needing it to live. #Writing #ThoughtsWhileWriting #WritersGuilt #WritingHumor #Funny #Author #WriterSky #Sleep #Book #BookSky #SelfCare #Writer #WritingCommunity
We listen and we don’t judge. I use em dashes instead of just putting a period at the end of the sentence— the sentence may be done but my thought train isn’t. #WeListenAndWeDontJudge #WriteSky #BookSky #ThoughtsWhileWriting #WritingCommunity #Grammar #WritingHumor #EmDash #Writer #Author #Books
It’s really bold of me, a neurodivergent who struggles with rejection sensitivity, to want to be a writer— a career path forged entirely by rejection. #ActuallyADHD #ADHD #ThoughtsWhileWriting #RejectionSensitivity #TwRSD #Author #Books #WriteSky #BookSky #Neurodivergent #Humor #WritingHumor #Funny
The line between a writer, a healthcare professional, and a criminal is a lot thinner than one might think. #WritingHumor #Writing #Mysteries #Funny #Writer #Author #WritingCommunity #Healthcare #Author #WriteSky #BookSky #Books #Humor #Book #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Detective #Fiction #Research
Copy editing is like housecleaning but for a book. Instead of a feather duster, I have a comma. Instead of scrubbing, I have spelling. But always, everything has its place and its purpose. #HouseCleaning #CopyEditing #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Editing #Writer #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Book #BookSky
Is the pacing messing with me or have I assigned an arbitrary page-count for each chapter? The world may never know. #WIP #PageCount #Pacing #Writing #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Book #Author #Writer #Chapter #WritingCommunity #WritingHumor #Funny #WriteSky #BookSky #Reading #Write
Writing is somehow the most therapeutic and yet stressful activity one can engage in. I strive for perfection whilst pouring all my feelings onto the page. As though feelings can be perfect. A perfect oxymoron. #WritingCommunity #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Oxymoron #Writing #Book #Booksky #Writer #Author
I was insecure at first about writing a story featuring an LGBTQ+ romance. After careful consideration, though, perhaps it is that insecurity that lets me know that we need more LGBTQ+ romances. #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQ+Romance #Fiction #Books #Writer #Author #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Pride #Romance #Writing
I don’t know if I am actually writing, or if my characters possess me for a short time to express themselves. Is this writing, or am I a conduit for ghosts.

Words I couldn’t spell right even if you held my family hostage:

My cat Niv sitting like a loaf in a spot of sunlight. She looks ethereal. She is lovely. She is a white with grey, stripy patches all over her back and face, and has the cutest little, pink nose.
I don’t mean to over-exaggerate, but I do think I have the cutest co-writer there is. #MyCat #Cat #Writing #CoWriter #CatInALoaf #CatsOfBluesky #Cute #Kitten #Pets #Loaf #Funny #WritingHumor #Writer #Author #ThoughtsWhileWriting #Picture #AltTex #PetPics #Cats #CutePictures #FurBaby #Humor
Occasionally, while researching the book I’m writing, I do think it’s a miracle that we, as humans, lived past the 1800s.
