It may feel weird or somehow improper to talk about your art or your writing, but we need it. It can’t be wall-to-wall nightmare all the time. Art is both counterweight and context. It’s escape and enlightenment and a mirror of our own exasperation. We need it. We NEED it. Keep showing us.

So so happy to have caught #Cupit in real time! I've missed seeing and interacting with writers during pitch events <33 Comment below if you've posted so I can give my support!!

Hi!! Finally using BlueSky again! Where are my writers/authors at?? 🫶

Say hi if you're planning to pursue writing in 2025, because I'm already so so proud of you!

#BookSky what are some of your favourite middle grade fiction books?

Making it my goal to read more middle grade fiction in 2025! There's something so healing and whimsical about reading middle-grade books as an adult. The contricts of imagination are so thin and anything is possible

I don't care! I'll always be the biggest sucker for domestic scenes in romance!!! GIVE me puzzle dates, romantic strolls, movie marathons, baking dates, playing video games together, just low-drama, soft, romantic scenes!! gives me butterflies every single time

I recently logged into my old Tumblr and opened a writing blog, and honestly the writing community there that shares tips, prompts and advice is so so helpful! Genuinely still one of my favourite places to get writing tips

I can't wait to write more bestsellers in 2025

✨We are PM official!✨ My middle-grade debut is a love letter to #BTS, by fans for fans! The book is BDS-friendly & portions of proceeds will be donated to causes we care about, center of mind Pal BTS fans 💜 @majablanque.bsky.social & I hope this book will be a spot of joy in these times.

"Are they lovers?" 'Worse'

How many aura points did I GAIN when I mentioned a list of my celebrity and fictional crushes in my debut book acknowledgements

Jaslene and Marlon from All About You is basically Max and Deib from He’s Into Her in book form 🫣🤭 (and #DonBelle are my FANCAST too HEHE)

This is your reminder that I wrote a young adult romantic comedy about two filipino childhood rivals who have to fake-date and fake-break-up because their mum's, who are besties, won't stop shipping them

when it's fake dating, childhood rivals but he takes her on a bookstore trail date and tells her to pick out her favourite books, then buys it all for her

just learnt about elizabeth barnett and robert browning's courtship of exchanged poems MONTHS before they first saw each other, and how they eloped against elizabeth's father's wishes then went on to live a happy life and this is why we should bring back WRITTEN LOVE LETTERS

daily reminder to all the writers out there: your story is IMPORTANT. it DESERVES to be told. your voice DESERVES to be heard, no matter what the market, what the trend is. the world needs your words

Introduce yourself with: One book 📚 — Pride and Prejudice! One movie 🎥 — Your Name (Makoto Shinkai) & Scream One album 💿 — Love Yourself (BTS), Lover (Tay) One TV show 📺 — Bridgerton

there is nothing better than recommending your favorite book to someone and them coming back and telling you they loved it. absolute cocaine of a feeling. put that shit in my body immediately

My love for dorky loser boys was already rooted when I was 6 and Peter Parker became my favourite boy

When marketing online isn't working so I go to the bookstore with my book and act like I just plucked it off the shelves

she’s a 10 but she thought it was a good idea to fake date the son of her Mum’s best friend who she can’t stand so she can date another boy like tf???

#BookSky fake dating lovers psps

As someone who grew up in the 2014/15 tumblr space I’m gonna bring that exact energy into my book marketing with unhinged text posts and fun vibes

Btw, if you’re a romance reader

pursuing writing as a career and striving to be a full time author feels so strange sometimes!! it goes like this i’m in my room, and i still can’t believe i released my debut novel last week, and i’m HOLDING it in my hands. it feels like we finally reached the destination yknow??

I like my men how I write them: pathetic yearners, a little bit baby girl, a big dork and a simp for their women

Just realised I make my chraracters use a lot of pop culture references as a bonding activity bc thats how I’ve forged some of my closest relationships: through shared love for books, tv, music, film. I can’t help but keep seeing the world through the lens of stories and media I ingest

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.

I have no idea if I did this correctly but I looked for a Starter Pack for South Asian writers and didn't find one - so I made one. Please share and feel free to let me know if you want to be added 🤎 #southasian #scriptsky #writersky #authorsky go.bsky.app/TTefBKP

writing romance isn’t about the PERFECT love story. it’s actually about creating THE perfect kiss scene and getting it right

Officially declaring 2025 as the year to support MORE indie authors <3

can i get some noise for this cute lil pink cover??? #booksky
