Hey y'all, I'm a day late because I overestimated my energy after working the weekend and the TinHouse application but @justkeepwriting.bsky.social has a discord category for the chatting. I stacked the first week with @sillysyntax.bsky.social's COUNTESS after which it short fiction, nonfiction,

To make the most of a week, we will begin on June 9th with COUNTESS by @sillysyntax.bsky.social! As an admin for the Ignytes, Suzan cannot be nominated for one but that didn't stop the Nebulas. This gives us some lead time while celebrating a writer who would be nominated if not for their service.

So when the Ignytes are announced, I'll drop a reading schedule. @justkeepwriting.bsky.social graciously agreed to host Informed Ignyte Voters on its discord. discord.gg/fR7r6sqF Ignytes Nominations hit on June 9th!

Wanna join the Informed Ignyte Voter Book Club? I hear the @theignyteawards.bsky.social Nominees have been notified, which is very exciting because the Ignytes celebrate the works of People of the Global Majority within Speculative Fiction! The Ignyte Awards are special, in part, because they

I am obsessed with this series. I listened to a podcast from Odyssey with Gregory and I bought the first book Mystery Magnet last year. It wasn’t until last week I started to read them and I’m on book four. We need to interview @tekhnemakre.bsky.social for @justkeepwriting.bsky.social .

Join us and dive deep into “The Secrets Of Character” by Matt Bird. Tap the link in our bio. @lpkindred.bsky.social @sameemwrites.com @shingai-be-like.bsky.social @marshallcarrjr.bsky.social @wilralston.bsky.social

Intuitive. I got out of the spiral by shifting to the idea of writing novellas. I had too many ideas for a novel, but a novella series felt right. No outlining, just meeting the page and letting what came come.

Spiral. Once I did find my way back to writing, I moved from short form to a novel. I received a hefty grant to write one, and so I tried-- and wrote act ones. I have like 8 or 9 act ones that just did not feel right, even though they were good writing. I was stuck in a spiral.

Abyss. This is really a 2023-2024 thing, but I stopped writing for awhile. The genocide in Palestine destroyed any sense I had that my writing was good for anything, that it was enough. I wasn't alone in this; quite a few Palestinian writers I know were experiencing the same crisis of faith.

Inspired by the latest episode of @justkeepwriting.bsky.social here are three words that describe my writing journey in 2024, followed by an unpacking of each one. Abyss, Spiral, Intuitive.
