1003 words into the manuscript. I also submitted to nine short story markets and three agents. :) What a busy day! Sigh. I'm going to bed now. 😴

I didn't say anything yesterday because I decided to take a break. I'm going into my writing session right now. :)

1081 words into the manuscript. I'm sensing the end to the novel is coming soon. :) Just like seven ish more chapters? :)

I'm stuck at a weird follower count: 666. It's like there's a curse settling upon me and I don't know what that curse is.

Man, it's hard to find something engaging with the posts. Also, I just realized that I have something else to do. Oops! I'll check bluesky later when more folks are actually awake.

I'm going to explore the #writingcommunity posts when I have time. I feel like the latest posts have no conversations in them. :(

Okay, let's catch up. 1015 words into today's writing. :)

I'm behind like one day for some reason. around 600 words yesterday. :3

I just had a question while I was writing. What are folks in the #writingcommunity talking about nowadays?

Aw man, I thought I posted last night. I wrote like 2k words last night. I must have been tired or something.

1044 words. I stopped before a really steamy moment, lol.

Bluesky was down last night. Yesterday, I wrote 1.2k words. :)

My friend @namimun.bsky.social on her struggle to get her ovarian cancer diagnosis from her American healthcare providers, who too often ignored her symptoms, as she did the same: www.theatlantic.com/family/2026/...

Once again, @reggiekwok.bsky.social delivers a captivating story that no one else would publish. One of the things we're supposed to try to do with our magazines is define what we publish, and this is a story that is very hard to classify. Silly, dark, adult, accessible, weird… I can't define it.
