The 5th best #Hitchcock movie according to our listeners is The Birds from 1963. On our rewatch of The Birds, we discuss Bob Newhart sketches, lava lamps and television show Birdland, before closing out with genuine audio from our local cockatoos overcast.fm/+AAyngGBR1Kw

I wrote 800 words by dictating into my phone while walking the dog today. Pretty sure that shifted me out of GenX into GenZ. #writer #writingcommunity 📚

Any #petpeeves related to the books you’ve recently read? Mine is use of epigraphs - especially multiple quotes - at the start of books and chapters. I’m heartily sick of it. #writingcommunity 💙📚

A beta reader has made this comment about my synopsis: "It's very matter of fact, without the snarky, humorous tone of your novel. Is this the done thing with a synopsis – to focus on clarity over voice?" Help! Should I insert more voice into my synopsis? #writingcommunity #amquerying #writer

I must’ve done a previous pass on my ms, changing the sequential “and”s to “and then”. Just changed them all back. What do you think? Eg: I knocked and (then) entered. #writer #amquerying #writingcommunity

mary shelley’s frankenstein is a timeless classic that dares to ask the question which one of these mfers is supposed to be the monster.

We got an ensuite but Santa got there first. #DuvetKnowItsChristmas

Love it when bookshops or libraries arrange their books appropriately...

Any #Lost fans out there? New podcast!

For anyone who feels like their #amquerying is fruitless, I give you my dog burying a stolen sock. #writingcommunity 💙📚

1/ I'm making Christmas crackers for my bookclub - with book themed tiny gifts and jokes. If you'd like to do similar, here are 12 riddles (some found, some I made some up!) 🧵 #writingcommunity 💙📚👀 #BSBC Q - Why did the ghost always need more books? A - Because she went through them too quickly

Re-reading A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle. I love this author quote. #writingcommunity 💙📚👀

That’s one way of avoiding spoilers.

Some days, I need a push to open my manuscript. Today it was this prompt. As it turns out, page 47 is one of my favourites. Maybe I'll do some editing now... #writingcommunity #writer 💙📚

#WIPSNIPS looks like fun. But the instructions say “share a line” so why does everyone post multi paragraphs? Vibes. I need to ride the vibes and not the rule book. #writingcommunity

Lift the backstory out of your novel and turn it into a short story that you submit to a competition (so it has a use!) Summarise your short story in a sentence or two and insert this back in your novel - always LATER than you had it originally. Works for useless scenes/chapters too. #writer ✍️

I need a starter pack of people who have this book in their top 20. #writingcommunity 💙📚👀
