I just started a Tumblr acct. I haven't posted anything yet, but I will soon! www.tumblr.com/blog/sagebyr... As always, you can check out my website as well. Link is in my bio. #writing #writingcommunity

Been off the radar for a few days while I finish a final edit before sending my manuscript off to my editor. This may be more exciting than actually finishing the novel in the first place! #writingcommunity #writing

Reason #8 for rereading your manuscript thoroughly: Just cleaned up a scene where it read like the MC answered the door only wearing socks. That was not the vibe I was going for! 🤣 #writingcommunity #writing

Touched base with a local art collective today to try and secure a local artist for my bookcover. I believe in hiring local talent: humans before AI, always! #writingcommunity #writing

Today is Indigenous People's Day!! A day of remembrance, reflection and celebration; of truth, healing and celebration. Let's shine a light on their culture, resilience and accomplishments. Never forget. #indigenouspeoplesday #nativeamerican

Wondering if I'm the only one that does this when #writing. I'll lay down to sleep, clearly focused on a scene that I'm struggling with, and fall asleep - revisiting it as I wake off & on during the night. By morning, my subconscious has written the scene. Anyone else do this? #writingcommunity

Don't forget: Monday, October 13th is #IndigenousPeoplesDay Help celebrate & honor Native Americans by spreading the word. Side-note: The main character in my upcoming novel is part Choctaw, a people steeped in rich culture, so this really hits home for me. #NativeAmericans #writing

Spent yesterday hanging with my friend who I haven't seen in 8 years. We stopped at Margarittaville for lunch and got treated to this sight. #ships #pirates #Florida #Destin

Having one of those days where a chapter is clawing to get onto the page, but it's for later - possibly even book 3. Gonna have to write it down to get it out of my system so I can focus. #amwritingfantasy #writing #writingcommunity ❤️🧙‍♂️⚔️

I keep a notebook by my bed at night to write down nocturnal ideas. Wrote this in pitch dark last night and it's legible! Still made sense to me this morning and to my ongojng plotline. #writing #writingcommunity

Oh my! I'm currently working on book 2 & it takes place in October. Now I have lots to think about. It would be the perfect opportunity for my MC to wear a super-sexy outfit that has the wizard-detective tripping over himself with their slow-burn romance... Muahaha Classic Lil Red Riding Hood?

"Do you have 8 minutes?" means "I need you." #mentalhealth

We have the right to read what we want, no matter what politicians or school officials say. Let us know what your favorite banned book is below. 📚

“We’re operationalizing our old corridors—taking ancient trade routes our elders told us about and articulating them in a modern context,” said Solomon Cyr, spokesperson for Standing Buffalo Dakota Nation.” — Love it when people take advantage of political opportunities.

The last couple of days were pretty full and kept me away from the computer. Had a friend fly in from CA for a week. Haven't seen her in 8 years. Gonna be a busy week!

We must all stand together against book banning and protect free speech. Banning doesn't stop at one thing - it continues to grow until there is silence. #bannedbookweek #books

When I finally finished my first manuscript, I thought I would feel some sense of accomplishment or victory, but I didn't. Instead I dove into the editing part of it, working & reworking it for months. Now that it's ready to go to my editor—now I feel a sense of accomplishment. #writing

From an early age, I've always enjoyed reading. There's something magical in the way a well-written book can transport you to distant lands and into the lives of others. #Writing is a gift. #books

Books are like magic. They are thoughts made manifest. What is magic if not the power of thought made real?

As an emerging author living in Florida, this concerns me. They may not object to my book today, but what about tomorrow? Or the next day. No one should tell us what we can think, write or speak. We must always fight for Free Speech. #books #Booksky #writing

Proud of my local library for standing strong and not giving into the voices of dissent. #books #booksky

Just launched my author website and am now getting set-up in Bluesky. It's been a long journey, but well worth it. Book one of the Nerissa Morgen series launches in the spring and book two is already in the works. I hope you'll join me for the journey. #books #writing #writingcommunity
