Gonna have to catch up on #camprevpit on the weekend. It's report card season and I'm exhausted

I don't know if he's a villain but he definitely antagonizes Corrine. Introducing Edwin, Corrine’s "younger" brother. He wants nothing more than to turn her cafe into a night club and reminds her every time he stops by of his plan. #CRPsparkleskunks #camprevpit

I've left the parking lot and I'm making my way down a wide path on a nice leisurely hike to a beautiful look out point. I have a clear map of where I'm going, I just need to walk #camprevpit #revpit #crpsparkleskunks

Good Morning, Campers! I'm Drea! I write urban fantasy stories. I've decided to shelve my revpit book and I'm sharing something new! Vampire Corrine enters a cooking competition to save her diner and falls in love with a human reporter sent to cover the event #campkickoff #camprevpit

Okay! Got feedback from my writing besties about my opening, time to Cozy it up some more before #camprevpit. (But after I write report cards, gotta be responsible)

I would definitely

New book (still working on the pitch): Vampire chef enters a cooking competition to save her diner for supernatural creatures and falls in love with the human reporter covering the competition. #camprevpit #revpit

Signed up for camp #revpit with my new book. But it's weird. Weirder than Bloodless which is a mash up of real world police work and vampires. So maybe there will be a cabin for weird books?

Wrote 2k words for the first time in a while

Time to shelve Bloodless for the time being and work on something else. It's bittersweet but I think it's time. #revpit

My adrenaline is still high from almost being side swiped on the way to work

I'm enjoying the waiting zone. It's been so fun to read so many people's opening pages! You guys are all brilliant writers and you've written a whole book!! I'm excited to follow so many of you on this next part of your journey! ❤️❤️❤️

BOOM! South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less. THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis. #EnergyRevolution

This is rather brilliant - Having Super Mario Kart Racing in your own home, the live-action version. This course features collectible LEGO figures of Mario, Luigi and the gang. The creation is part of a Rube Goldberg-style machine featured by Joseph's Machines. #mario #lego #racing #fun

The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little." ‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.” So a napkin is a little tablecloth. 10/10, no notes.

Tbh it's fairly infuriating to hear tech people talk about "vibecoding" positively when the past year of software for me has been plagued with shit I need for work seriously breaking in nearly every update

Edited 11k of my new book. We are so back. Sending it out to alpha readers soon!

Ready, Set, Pitch! *open until Sunday* leave a comment with your best hook. If I want to read more, I’ll reply! #amquerying #literaryagent #authors

having read a chunk of #revpit opening 20 pages in an exchange, I'm in awe of my fellow writers and I'm also wondering how the editors are ever going to decide #revpitwaiting

Thinking of all my fellow Xennials who were scarred for life watching Challenger explode... I was on the edge of my seat the entire launch.

Yup.

First day back to work after Spring break and I gave my students a multi-day test (open book, open resources, they can google, they can ask me, and they can have extra time at home.) I still feel like a super villain

Even if I don't get any #revpit editor feedback and end up shelving my book like I planned, I'll still have all the friends I met along the way and their comments to keep me going. It's a really positive end to this book's querying journey. #revpitwaiting #amquerying #wip ##writingcommunity

The amount of times I've almost dropped my phone on my face is more than once despite barely being on my phone today I only logged in because of #revpitwaiting

If you use LLMs, you're increasing your chances of getting exposed and humiliated and open to liability like this.

They try to frame this like this guy is just a normal guy and that AI psychosis could happen to anyone but there is one huge difference between people who fall prey to it and people who never ever will. www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

all you can do is write your weird little heart out and hope at least one person gets it 🖤

I'm working on a Cozy paranormal romance called Undead Diner #revpit #repitwaiting

Ray Bradbury. Shirley Jackson. Deborah Crombie. Anne Rice. Margaret Atwood. L. M. Montgomery. David Alexander Robinson. Gillian Flynn. I love sci fi and a good twist. #revpit #revpitwaiting

I've finally done it. I installed an app blocker because I can't stop doomscrolling. I need to get back to the gym, to writing, to making art. This should help. I hope.

First, I'm not surprised. But second, they probably started the fire as a way to deal with the vampires they are fighting.

Tiger's Eye (16, tortie) and Jasper (almost 2, tabby). They are only this close because Tiger's Eye doesn't know Jasper is in the box. Jasper weighs twice what Tiger's Eye does.

My #revpit book

Springtime

More of this, please, starting with Elon Musk.

Excellent. The hype machine is starting to crumble

Just caught a typo in my #revpit project. I'm like gah! But also, maybe this is why my editor will pick me. See, I need help! Hahaha. A girl can dream.

When I'm editing, I listen to playlists from this youtube channel. It gets me in the right headspace to kill some darlings www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CNz...
