I’ve started editing on my book again. It’s been a while and everything feels so different now. How’s your writing going? #WritingCommmunity #WritersCafe

Now with the school semester behind me, I can focus the next few months on writing! Goal: continue to edit my WIP so that it’s query-ready by the fall. What are your writing goals for the summer? #amwriting #writers

I want to read more novellas in the fantasy/romance genre, bonus if published by an indie author. Any suggestions? #WritingCommmunity #BookRecommendation #WritersCafe

My definition of success 10 years ago was getting As in every class. Now I think of success as process rather than a result. If I’m moving closer to my goals, that’s success. Having many experiences and skills is best thing I did for myself. Better than those straight As
What was your definition of success 10 years ago? And (how) has it changed?

Do you write happy endings for your characters? If so, why? I write happy endings because you don’t always get one in real life. I see books as an escape. #WritingCommmunity #WritersCafe #Writer

I was tagged by @elise_volkman with the word WHOLE, which appears 12 times in my WIP. Thanks for the tag!
I was tagged (forever ago) by the lovely @catclouise with the word ✨SHINE✨ which appears exactly 0 times in my entire Nymph Keepers trilogy💀 (apparently I take the "dark" in dark fantasy too seriously). Tagging @CVJacksonWrites with "whole" and @miraya_e with "poison" 🙃❤️

Most recently at a kindergarten moms get together, someone said, “Oh! Aren’t you that mom who writes those trashy books?” Honestly, it just made me feel so sad for her. Poor pumpkin.

Some solid writing advice 👏🏽 This took me years to understand and implement 😊
Quick tips for writing picture books: a thread. Lately I’ve seen some strong pitches & incredible concepts but the execution wasn’t there. So tip #1: don’t just list events. We should see, feel, experience along with the characters. (1/4)

So true 😂
"omg you're a writer, that must be so romantic" it's literally just me in sweatpants hunching over my laptop and rewriting the same sentence five different ways
First day of class went well! I feel a lot more confident to ask questions and contribute to the discussion than I did in my undergrad. I guess you really do care less as you get older 😎

Today, after 7 years, I decided to go back to school. It’s a little scary, especially that I’m still working full time and writing on the side. I hope I can balance everything.

Love this idea if you feel stuck with your WIP
I was feeling stuck on my WIP draft so I went back to a trick I call The Diana Wynne Jones Outline. It's where I give every planned chapter a descriptive title that starts with "In Which..."
