Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

Dear friends, writers, #agents, interstellar travelers, interdimensional aliens, and otherwise paradoxical time hoppers! We would like to invite you to set your favorite time-traveling device to October 21st, 2025, for the pitch event dedicated to Science Fiction, #SFPit! 🧵

that time I was writing something and I re-read it and thought "this sounds way too smart. I can't have possibly written this" and indeed I was quoting the Bhagavad Gita out of pure muscle memory

It really drives me up the wall that there is no clear way to gauge what "good writing" is

#BluePitHype Will loves cooking! So much that if someone were to criticize his choice of spices, he would rethink his entire existence and remake the dish until they declared it PERFECT. But if he had to master one skill, it would be building things so he could help out his girlfriend (a mechanic)

I've swallowed a lot of things in my time. The most dangerous? Ideas. Left on the vine, they have a lot to teach about their ecosystem, through the niche they fill in it. It's festering in the belly that makes them burn bilious. A little grappa glass of curiosity is actually the perfect digestivo.

#BluePitHype Here are the STUNNING character sheets for Aliza and Viktor! Main characters of my science-fantasy + romance novel ACROSS ASHEN MOUNTAINS Art by Marta Hurtado ✨(www.artstation.com/marta_hurtado) Support human artists <3

It’s Day 2 of #BluePitHype! Today is Art Share day! Share your character art, concept art, sketches, and/or mood boards! 4 days left until #BluePit on July 9th! (No AI images) #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #Writers #AmQuerying #GameDev #Comics #TTRPG

#WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions I wanted to explore characters across time and worlds. No one is the same person they were ten years before, but there must be some core---some sense of self---that remains, regardless of what we become and what different worlds may force us to be.

Relationship Advice Needed: My (28M) ex-girlfriend (? F) went missing years ago. I've just discovered she became a Goddess who is now in charge of my fate. #UnhingedPit #A #F #R

I can't believe I'm writing this because I never thought I would write this I got my first acceptance!

I love that special flavor of anxiety that comes with submitting things

nothing like Manuscript Wish List and QuestPit to make me think "damn, I should really finish my book"

Manifested it

Am I annoying... for talking about my own book... on my own account... at a pitch event?

My TL having a conversation about when a story truly starts and what grabs an editor's attention while I'm literally writing the first chapter of my new MS is not anxiety-inducing at all, no, no no. Absolutely not. /s

In BCS #422: "Furious Communion" @rkduncan.bsky.social "The absence of my lord from me, from my bed, is like a chill of deepest winter that will not leave me. It is wrong to be without him, when I should be swelling with new life as all of nature is." www.beneath-ceaseless-skies.com/stories/furi...

Submitting all the stories I wrote during 2024 during the first week of 2025 because if I'm going to get punched in the face, I'd prefer it if all the punches arrived at roughly the same time.
