Woke up today with a half- spun spider web concerningly close to my head. No sign of the spider, and I haven't been hungry all morning. #horror #writing #truestories #shortstories #writesky #booksky #nature #NOLA #summer #breakfastofchampions

Your creative work isn’t going to be for everybody, but as a writer, there’s nothing quite like knowing your book is starting to find the right audience 🖤💜🖤 #writer #writesky #indieauthor #books #booksky #writingcommunity #gothic #fantasy #horror #art #dark #Hjameshoff

I came across this postcard sized story years ago and it's a little more eerie coming across it today... #shorteststory #Peterchiykowski #booksky #writesky #writer #writingcommunity #books #author #indieauthor #reader #bookworm #gothic #dark #fantasy #horror #eerie

So soon?

Let's not forget the, "Feeling stressed out ABOUT what you've written" option. Personal fave.

Wow... I just got the BEST review I could imagine getting and I've never wanted to hug a stranger more... Take this as your sign to go and say something nice about a book you enjoyed! #writer #writesky #indieauthor #books #booksky #writingcommunity #gothic #fantasy #horror

Is it writer's block when you just....don't wanna? Like the story is there and it's going along fine, but sitting down and doing the work just isn't the mood. #booksky #writesky #writer #writingcommunity #writinglife #burnout #books #author #indieauthor #writingmeme

Reading and writing are both strong distractions when things aren't great. And then there's nature. Also distracting. But, as I learned last night when I left a light in my living room as the termite swarm began, not always a good one. #nola #writing #reading #meme #sarcasm

A creepy old house. Some doubtlessly haunted woods. Something unfurling from the shadows that whispers her name like a song. Talia is starting to regret going off her meds. The trouble is, she isn't crazy. And that's so much worse. (link in bio) #book #booksky #writesky #readers #gothic #fantasy

This is one of my comparative titles, as well as one of my comparative authors. Anyone else want to share theirs? #booksky #writesky #writer #writingcommunity #books #author #indieauthor #reader #bookworm #gothic #dark #fantasy #horror #t.kingfisher

One night, a cockroach the size of a Bic lighter was on my bedroom wall. There was much screaming. Probably not from the cockroach-- I couldn't tell. Because of all the screaming. But the next day, this majestic golden creature appeared, so it all balances out. #NOLA #moth #magic #photography

Spooky tale for new authors: My book JUST came out days ago, and this dude tanked my rating without buying or reading it, on the only platform I'm selling it on atm.🙄 They say don't read the reviews. They are CORRECT. #writer #writesky #indieauthor #books #booksky #writingcommunity

Does this count as some sort of hoarding? Asking for a friend. #writer #writesky #author #indieauthor #books #booksky #writerlife #writingcommunity #meme #humor #sarcasm

New plan: Band together with other indie authors and find a glen to hobble down whilst calling, "Come buy, come buy!" If we all dressed accordingly, I think it could really entice people. Follow me for more book marketing strategies. #writingcommunity #writesky #books #marketing #writer

At first I thought this was a little cat house. Then I realized it was for books. I would've been happy either way, but I didn't open it, because it this time of year it could also be cockroaches, so I just let it be Schrodinger's situation. #books #booksky #NewOrleans #littlelibrary #cats

Book marketing is exhausting, especially right before a release. Good thing I don't have a day job or children that also demand my time. Oh wait. #writer #writesky #author #indieauthor #books #booksky #writerlife #writingcommunity #meme #humor #sarcasm #sarahanderson #art #comic

If we all improve with experience, then the first book you publish, no matter how good it is, is also the WORST book you'll ever publish. Super excited to for my worst book coming out next week! #writer #writesky #author #indieauthor #books #booksky #writerlife #writingcommunity #humor #sarcasm

Libraries matter, y'all. #writer #writesky #writingcommunity #stories #books #booksky #readers #bookworm #bookish #library

I feel there's a story to be told about a cursed little free library...adding that to my to-do list. The cursed little library, not the story. #writer #writesky #writingcommunity #stories #books #booksky #readers #bookworm #bookish #library #comic #illustration #spooky #halloween #haunted

The book had like 4.5 star rating out of nealy 150 THOUSAND reviews. This is what made me take a chance on it and what made me feel I was insane listening to it get worse and worse. I will be complaining about this experience for the next 3 business days. #booktok #booksky #cringe

I just got my first 5 star review from an ARC!! I know that in general you need a thicker skin if your going to read reviews of your work, but it's a great feeling to get a good one! #writer #writesky #author #indieauthor #debutauthor #book #booksky #writingcommunity #ARC #bookreview
