I love that moment when you have other things to do, but you just got out of the shower and the muse apparently lives in there. 😂 #AmWriting #AuthorProblems

Fellow authors, do you find yourself taking breaks when writing extremely tense or emotional scenes? I've been working on this intense battle for a few days and I keep stopping to give myself a little breather. #AmWriting #AuthorProblems

Finished the first of seven novel editing projects. 🎉Now I #amwriting my nobledark epic for a bit, before I start the next one. My writing boss doesn't give me any breaks (glares at the mirror). At least I have an excellent assistant (seen here forcing a break). #EpicFantasy #CatMom #AuthorLife

Personally, I'm relieved the adults finally admitted they’re just tall children with spreadsheets.

Just discovered an insane new form of co-intelligence where you briefly share the mind of a great thinker in history and then a portion of their mind travels in yours for the rest of your life. Calling it a "book."

You know you didn't sleep enough when you decide to check email and just type "email" into the search bar like you actually expect that to get you there. To be fair, my cat did wake me up at 4 a.m. puking precisely down the gap between the couch cushions. Devoted #CatMom = #SleepyAuthor

Thought I had a good place to use "ichor" in my new book last night, but in the end, it just didn't fit. Now I really want to find a spot for it because it's an excellent word. I did get to use "moist" though. 😂 #AmWriting #BookSky #NobleDarkFantasy #EpicFantasy

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is. GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart. But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

AI bros are unreal. ‘Here is something we made and have decided you cannot live without it!!!!!!!!!!!’ ‘I’ve been living without it just fine so far.’ ‘You need it to LIIIIIIIVE.’ Try as you might, AI bros, most of us like using our brains, not stealing or being lazy, and not killing the planet.
