In 2014 I was given a death sentence. I decided to fight—my lifelong dream WAS to become a published author. Today, I AM my own dream come true. 📚✍️ Happy book launch day! #WritingCommunity #Book #BookLaunch #IndieAuthor BenjaminRyanBooks.com

One year until she’s out in the world 🩵 Coming Feb. 17, 2026 from @conquestpublishing.bsky.social

I’m a millennial and my favorite opera is the Carmen-themed episode of Hey Arnold

I'm going to say something really controversial and i hope i don't regret it i think TTPD and Cowboy Carter are both deserving of AOTY and i'll be happy if either of them win.

I was looking for some information about the policies of a company the other day, and the AI response at the top of the screen conflated 3 similarly-named companies in its answer. The website they cited was for a different company. If I'd trusted it, I'd have been wrong.

Best dual timeline stories? (Preferably contemp vs. historical, and romance or romance-adjacent!) #writingcommunity #booksky

this story is so good-- funny and sexy and silly in all the best ways. agents, snatch this one up!

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️

everyone should read this gorgeous poem from @tracierenee.bsky.social

2024 treated me pretty well. I moved to a new country, signed a publishing contract for my debut novel, and got a new job. Hard to imagine 2025 will top that, but here's hoping the best is yet to come for all of us! ✨

Okay, let's try this again. 7 days, 26 chapters left to edit. 3.7 chapters per day. let's go!

#homeless #unhoused #harmreduction

edited 6 chapters tonight, and brainstormed with my husband a solution to a problem that's been holding me up for months. i might be on a roll!

Happy Release Day to @liter8ure.bsky.social!! This story continues to live rent-free in my head and houses my ultimate dark, moody, and a bit sadistic fictional crush. Pick it up today! #darkfantasy #epicfantasy

Just leaving this here #VeryBegrudginglyInLove - an annoyemies-to-lovers rom-com 💕

People of Bluesky. Let’s get to know each other better. What is one of your favourite movies? Quote share your answer in a gif!

Devastated to report that setting specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound goals does, in fact, help you get shit done.

Maybe going to try to be here a little more often again? Would love to connect with writers here, too ❤️

My first draft was only 54k words. I started querying in the high 60s, thinking the story was complete. (I started querying too soon, I know!) I'm now at 85k, 300+pages, with a few more chapters yet to revise. Who knew I could write this much? #amwriting #amrevising

Querying folks, looking for input on comping a non-fiction book for my upmarket/book club fiction novel? I am reading a book now (memoir/sociology) that has a lot of similarities to themes in my book, with similar "characters" in the memoir part. ...

when you do a questionable google search for research purposes but manage to find the exact resource you're looking for

My friend self-published a book of poetry recently, and through her printer she paid for placement in local book stores. She went to go see it in the stores, and it turns out one of those bookstores just... throws them out. Self-published books, straight in the trash.

Starting more or less from scratch over here 😅 would love to connect with other writers! I am currently revising my upmarket/book club fiction book and hoping to re-start querying in the fall.
