A Recipe for Romance 💘 Will’s staying at Maggie’s apartment in LA… and is maybe (most definitely) falling for her. Maggie’s hiding in her bedroom, because she most definitely (maybe) will not be falling for Will. And Will’s always hungry. #SundaySnippet #writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompt

#SundaySnips A dimple appears (emerges)… Annora’s POV after reuniting with Zane. #writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompt

Maggie takes on a few of my lovely qualities—like my inability to keep plants alive. 😂😳 This scene is from Will’s POV in LA. He’s trying, desperately, to convince Maggie that they could be good together. #SundaySnips #writesky #writingprompt

I want to write a murder mystery about some writers who meet online and organize a writing weekend. The FMC recently got dumped and wants to write a memoir about the perils of dating. The group gets stranded at a cabin (there’s a murder) and they’re all suspects. An overdone premise, I know… 🫣😂

A snippet that uses “sweet” twice, but is more artificial sweetener than natural… 😂🤣 A Recipe for Romance 💘

Sometimes, after a long drought where the words won’t come and the story stalls, 500 words is a win. #writingcommunity #writesky

“I would take a hundred neurotoxic darts for her—nothing will change that.

I have two WIPs I never post about. It’s the same “universe” as A Recipe for Romance. Both need a complete makeover. A machete? A shredder? I’ve been editing for so long, I may have forgotten how to write. Here’s to finishing book 2 of The Annora Project and that heist scene I keep putting off.

Me *back* in editing mode, popping in to read some #WIPSnips and #writingprompts

And I’m watching this movie…

My second grader picked a 20 minute class nap time for her reward points at school, and I’ve never been more proud. Or more jealous…

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've been to: I don’t even have words to describe this list… MXPX Mannheim Steamroller Chicago FUN. (I’m just now realizing I’ve only been to four. 😳😅🫠)

Being a girl mom means practicing with their new hair toys. Harder than it looks…

So grateful to have found the #writingcommunity on #Bluesky. I’ve always been shy about sharing my writing, and very few people have read my completed work. The encouragement and engagement I’ve experienced on this platform has kept me from throwing in the towel. Thank you, all! Excited for 2026!

Christmas came early… 🤩😁 My cousin knows I write, and drew my name for the gift exchange! #writingcommunity #writesky

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go. Wow. This is… Well, shoot.

From ✨The Annora Project✨ I’ve thought about doing a bonus scene from Fynn’s POV when he gets shoved through the wormhole into the future and returning to life in the compound—life without Nora.

🎶 Rehearsing with the orchestra for tomorrow’s performance. 🎶

In the dark, a pinky finds mine and links us together as we bump along the dusty dirt road. And even though I’m exhausted, hungry, and my shoulder hurts like the devil, I smile. ✨The Annora Project✨ #WritingPrompt

Cursive might be dying. The receptionist needed help to read a patient intake form because it was in cursive.

I initially wrote A RECIPE FOR ROMANCE as a grumpy-sunshine trope, but somehow they both ended up grumpy? #Novmemeber

Hello, I’m Carly. I’ve loved to read for as long as I can remember, and my Grandma played a big role in that. My writing started as a way to pass the time while waiting for kids to be done with practices. I wrote my entire first novel on my phone.

Currently watching Young Frankenstein. Probably the movie I quote most often… ❤️🤩

First animated crush without saying your age—

Your Halloween costume is "sexy" plus the last internet search you made: Sexy Torn Hip Labrum Welp…

After some feedback, I’m in the rewrite process for the opening of my WIP. New first line— “They say it takes three meetings to fall in love.” #writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompts #SaturdaySnippet

I swear my brain mockingly gives me my best ideas in the shower—no pens or paper in sight. An entire seamlessly hilarious conversation between characters. By the time I get out, I can recall approximately 50% of one line. Never mind that I’ve been staring at the same scene for the past 45 minutes. 🤦🏼‍♀️

A #wipsnips from ✨Book 2 of The Annora Project✨ #writingcommunity #writesky “Red”

Annora’s always chewing watermelon-flavored gum in my YA sci-fi and Maggie always has a hint of vanilla and coconut.

Currently starting draft 5 of A Recipe for Romance after discovering I used the word “sigh” over 130 times. 🫣🥴
