I'm good at making characters talk big and threaten each other, but when it comes to actually writing fight scenes...*sigh*. Who likes writing battles? #WritingCommunity #writingq #AuthorsOfTwitter

I'm a plotter, but it's funny. A character who was originally meant to be nobody is ending up playing a bigger role than I ever anticipated and is now one of my favorite characters. Has this happened to you? #amwriting #amwritingya #amwritingfantasy #writingcommunity #writingq

Anyone else have the nightmare that you get hit by a bus and some well-intended soul finds your *first draft* on your computer and decides to posthumously release it to the world thinking that's what you would want? ... asking for a friend #WritingCommunity #writingq #amwriting

It's the last day of Camp NaNoWriMo. I have 2,100 words left to write and very little time to write them. I need some good wishes! #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amwritingfantasy

Just hit 50K words on my WIP, The Coseema Saga Book 3. Lots of drama and action in this one--it's been fun to write so far! #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #amwritingya #yabooks

What time of day do you get the most writing done? #WritingCommunity #amwriting #writingq #amwritingfantasy #AuthorsOfTwitter

I love writing dialogue and characters' internal reflections, but I struggle with action sequences and fight scenes. Now I have to write an epic battle. Wish me luck! What do you struggle with? #WritingCommunity #writingq #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #amwritingYA

Does your villain have a love interest? Do they actually care about them or are they just using them? #WritingCommunity #writingQ #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #YAFantasy

Anyone else doing Camp #NaNoWriMo this July? I find it incredibly helpful to track my daily word count. My goal is 30K. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amwritingfantasy #amwritingYA #CoseemaSaga

Grateful that the words flowed today. Hit 25K words on my WIP. Steady progress. #amwriting #amwritingYA #amwritingfantasy

Hard to focus on writing today.

I always outline, but there are good reasons to be flexible. A new character appeared to me, one I didn't expect, but she asked to come along and here she is. Has this happened to you? #WIP #WritingCommunity #writingq #amwritingfantasy #amwritingYA

Welp, my characters are lost in the desert again. I must really have a thing for deserts. #wip #amwritingYA #amwritingfantasy #WritingCommunity

Are everyone's first drafts as horrible as mine? My sentences feel like a 10-year-old wrote them. I change my mind about something mid-paragraph and don't bother to correct things. I've learned I have to do this--the polishing comes later. #writingcommmunity #amwriting #writingq

I'm a plotter, but my plots tend to be vague on details. Like, "they escape the prison." Yeah thanks outline, that's super helpful right now as I'm trying to actually write the scene. Good luck, crew. #amwritingfantasy #amwriting #amwritingfiction #WritingCommunity
