Huzzah for fresh words! I began a new short story this morning. 1k words written so far and it’s starting to take shape. 🪶 #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #WriteSky

The pup thinks the bubblegum flavored antibiotic is om nom nom. I’m thinking, yuck! What do you think? Are you on my team or Team Pup?

The algorithm is about to be bamboozled. I’m changing handles from @rynterra to my full name @zsaffrynterra across all social media platforms. 🦋 📸 🧵 🎵 🕊️ The pup and I hope to see you around!

The pup will be tired, they said. For a couple of days, they said. We picked him up from the vet after his dental procedure and he was instantly grinning like a loon and asking to stick his head out the car window. My boy. 🥹😂

My fur mama anxiety is out of this world. We just dropped the pup off at the vet for his dental work. I kept it together for him but now I don’t know what to do with myself for the next several hours. Twiddle my thumbs and try not to panic? That’s the best I’ve got.

Mood. The pup knows how to handle hump day. Happy Wednesday!

Oh, sunshine and daisies! 🫣 The pup needs dental work so we can keep his smile pretty. Our fingers and paws are crossed that all goes well at his big appointment in a couple of days. Wish us luck? 🤞🐾🤞

You’d never guess we were at the vet. All is well, just a check up, but the pup has a smile to share even on stressful days. 💜

Happy New Year! From the pup and me. 💜🎊💜

The pup and I have a New Year’s Resolution: laugh more. What’s yours? 👀

Sending Monday smiles! The pup and I hope you’ve had a marvelous day. 💜

I just submitted my third short story and I’m shaking in my pajama socks. My fingers and my quills are crossed. 🤞🪶🤞 #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

I saved you the last cookie. 🍪

The pup and I found flowers on our Christmas adventure. He’s not too impressed but I’m tickled pink. Flowers in December? It’s a Christmas miracle!

Christmas Eve words. 🪶 Short story #4 is too short by half for its intended submission so I’m writing tonight to get it into proper form. How is your holiday going? #amwriting #writesky

I just finished the book the pup and I started mid November. Reading a few pages daily gave me warm vibes cause of that memory so it’s a bittersweet victory. Book 51 of 52. I didn’t think it was possible this year, but I’m going to reach my annual reading goal. #readingcommunity #BookSky

I asked the pup to pose pretty for his picture in the snow. So majestic.

The short story that I wrote this morning plopped onto the page in second person. That’s a first for me, but I listened to my muse and I’m delighted that I did. The story is about joy, and stars the pup, and has fun words like razzleberry and platypus. It’s with a reader now. 👀 #writingcommunity

The pup wants to know if I’ll be leaving cookies out for Santa… and where… I can’t see any ulterior motive here. Can you?

The pup asked me to share a smile with his friends on Bluesky. How was your week? 🐾

All the pup wants for Christmas is for you to have a good day. 🎄💜

The pup is giving away free hugs to all his new friends here on Bluesky. Thank you for the warm welcome. 💜

Heya! I’ve met a lot of amazing new people on here recently and thought I’d introduce myself. 😊 I am an open-minded creative who sews most of my own clothing and writes stories that explore the human condition but range in genre. I am an eclectic reader with a book always on hand and I have a (1/3)

The pup and I are devouring a book in the delicious December sun. We have four more days of beautiful weather before the rain comes. How’s your Friday going?

This morning’s challenge? Write a short story under 1k words. My story? 516 words. I can make it more purpley since there’s still currency in my word bank but that might offset the balance from whimsical to smothering. It’s with readers now. 👀 #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

I’m trying to write my author bio in third person for a short story submission and I can’t stop laughing! 😂 This is imposter syndrome on steroids mixed with a splash of sunshine and a sprinkle of doom. #5amwriterclub #writingcommunity #writeSky

Thank you, Auto Recovery! I am forever in your debt. Writers, artists, and all other creatives: remember to save your work. Sometimes we don’t get this lucky. Sometimes Auto Recovery sleeps on the job. 😴 #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #writesky

Sunshine and daisies! Today’s short story got DARK! The words cooperated this morning, but my 1.5k romantasy developed an edge that might be too intense for its intended (🤞🤞) anthology. Cross your fingers for an inspired writer? #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #WriteSky

I was outlining a new short story and the words were flowing, character-specific quotes were plopping on the page, my typing fingers were tingling with delight! And I ended up plotting a novel. 🙄 #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #writesky

Oh, feedback. How I love thee! My morning writing session was spent pouring over a critique and editing my short story. I am delighted with the results. How are the words treating you today? #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #writesky

My Bookish goals for December: • Meet my annual reading goal. • Read one short story per day. • Complete my Genre Bingo card • Read 1 book in a different language #readingcommunity #amreading #booksky

I’m curious about the tiny window at the bottom of this door. What do you think it’s for?

The words behaved this morning… Except my grounded romantic short story suddenly has fantasy elements so it no longer qualifies for its intended submission. 🙄😂 Not to worry, I found a new potential home for it. 🤞🕯️🤞 Shall we call that an author pivot? #5amwritersclub #writesky #writingcommunity

First snow. ❄️ You know what that means! #amwriting #amreading ALL day.

I took advantage of Black Friday by treating myself to Kindle Unlimited. The reading season has officially begun. 📚 #amreading #booksky

Huzzah! I cracked the short story code. My WIP is finally behaving instead of mutating into a poem. The 1st draft of my first-ever micromance is finished! Now for editing to breathe life into the prose. ✨ #5amwritersclub #amwriting #writingcommunity

November tomatoes in Idaho? 🤩 I am tickled pink. Looks like I found today’s writing snack! This volunteer plant is snuggled against the house where it’s warm and safe. Its siblings in the main garden did not survive the freeze. #gardening #LateAutumnHarvest

My little writer’s heart is determined to write a short story but it keeps mutating into a poem. Why, Words? WHY? 😩 #WritingCommunity #5amWritersClub #amwriting

The pup lingers for the smells. I linger for the colors. It’s a good time. #DogWalks #Nature #Autumn

Mission Accomplished. ✨ I’m excited to see where this new adventure goes. I was not expecting 3D modeling/animation to be this fun. #Art #3DArt #Blender

Needles in my hands and feet are normal… but lately my face feels like a pin cushion for a busy ghost seamstress—a sign that I’m losing my battle with POTS. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m committing to a new gym and therapy routine to stop this health free fall. 💪

To the query trenches! 🪶 #amquerying #WritingCommunity

November flowers in Idaho. 😍 The pup and I spotted them on our morning walk. #DogWalks #Flowers

There’s the pup on my lap A book in my hand Not a worry in the world November’s sun is grand Life is good today.

I’m outlining my new WIP now that A Kettle of Vultures is in the query trenches. It’s a grounded fantasy that will explore forbidden love (my favorite romance trope), the climate change, and how weird it is to be human. How did your writing session go? #WritingCommunity #5amwritersclub #WriteSky

Challenge accepted! Why do I do this to myself? 😅🤦🏻‍♀️ I paint with words but my hubby asked me to create a 3D animation for him since I finished writing and editing my WIP. He’s too cute to tell him no… So I’ve been learning Blender. Here’s a sneak peak. What do you think? #3DAnimation #Art

The pup and I are happy for all y’all who are delighted to have snow… But do keep that fluffy white nonsense over there? It’s still leaf crunching season. 🍁

Today’s the day!!! 🤩🤩🤩 I met my writing goal and finished my WIP’s fifth draft over the weekend. My query letter for a A KETTLE OF VULTURES will soon be in the wild! #amquerying #writingcommunity #writesky

So this is how Midas felt! ✨ For seven years I have worked the soil, tilled and supplemented and begged this tree to make it through the year only for its leaves to wither beneath the merciless sun. But it’s finally happening! 🤩 The leaves are turning to gold. #nature #autumnleaves

I’m starting my WIP’s fifth draft. The goal is to finish it by Sunday. Wish me luck? 🤞🪶🤞 #Writesky #WritingCommunity #5amwritersclub
