I miss raf

So bsky has a different shade of blue now, huh (it's been a while)

Merry Christmas Eve!!!

Another moment of missing writing and reading because studies channelled that energy into getting a good grade only 😑

I started something again after 4 months -- wait, probably 5 months now -- but it's moving at a snail's pace (unsurprisingly) 😭😭😭 it's my mood... Sigh it'll happen eventually

FUCKKKKKKKKKK

‘Tis the season for avoiding your relatives while furiously typing your yuletide fic on your phone, using family drama as real-time reference material, and decking your doc’s halls with so many festive em dashes...

I hope I get to update one of my stories soon, I MISS WRITING 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Finally got the book ver of Howl's moving Castle (with a friend)!!!!

ngl I could cry about how I haven't written for fun, not even once (crwr class doesn't count to me) in so long..... I can still vividly see the way my room looked when I would be sucked into a writing flow for a draft

I miss the cast of gm&sn 😭😭😭😭 that also hasn't been updated in 3 months... Dang

SL nearly reaching 600 hearts is super sweet tho

I haven't updated SL in 3 months....

Bro I haven't touched my poor writing projects ever since uni started 😭😭😭😭😭

hello friends I am going to post a questions thread for xavi's birthday once his card is announced, soooo keep an eye out 👀 #octovier #xavtober

"are you gonna get paid well for that?" Dude, I'm just writing, I'm not gonna be a published author, it's just an outlet that can be fun, chill

That was very philosophical, and although I did get bored during pg 400 onward, I still like how it was something Kuang was exploring, so it was a cool book

Reading

Oh definitely all the time

none of these thoughts are in the bible

Omg same, can't write mysteries, I always feel like the audience already knows or I'm not smooth enough 😭

These look so hecking cool!!!!

...... There are a lot. I have 4 that were hard to write cuz characterization issues, 3 or 5 with several (read: thousands) world building blips, and maybe 3 cuz I had a hard time thinking of endings for them

"Why is this taking so long?" - Me, spending a whole day rewriting a chapter I swore I loved. #amwriting #writerslife

It may seem like a small milestone, but having my own website still feels surreal! In this small corner of the internet, you will find short stories I have written, and one day, hopefully, my first novel. amberbristow.com #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

Wrote a little bit last night, but it was in chunks cuz they were all different scenes 😭😭 I'll take it

You can now set a password for your Ellipsus account—no more digging for login codes in your inbox every time you sign in. Code login is still around if you prefer it, but this update makes it way faster (and easier!) to jump back into your writing. Set whatever weird password your heart desires.

I can actually sleep peacefully now 😭😭😭😭😭😭

BLESS THE ELLIPSUS TEAM GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND 🙌🙌🙌🙌

I am holding a funeral for my draft while rewriting it from memory.... Ugh, it truly had everything I wanted.... @ellipsus.com please have the archives/trash option up soon 😭😭😭😭😭 I know it was my mistake but if there's an undo button, there could at least be an undo function for deleted stuff

Fuck, my whole chest is actually collapsing, I should have merged the draft before doing anything, effing hell.... How do I do this again? The words were flowing from my fingertips like the red string of fate 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
