Critique opportunity! #WritingCommunity Would you continue reading a novel based on this opening line? Good? Bad? Why!!! Arrow after arrow flumped into the twisted, hairless beast chomping on a bone with a mouth of daggers that couldn’t shut.

Definitely check your edits for "day" instead of "gay" you guys 😅 wrong theme

#DeckTheHalls We're matching up our work to the Major Arcana Tarot Cards. So, tell us how your characters (or places, things, or events) match up! Today's card is: THE STAR Who or what from your writing would you put on it and how does it fit the meanings? #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

The history of this German statue isn't familiar to me, but I know all about the inspired replica of this in my new fantasy city 😁 Writing and worldbuilding doesn't always have to be dry 😁

We should bring back scrolls, books are great but scrolls would be cool

Writing Tip: As a writing exercise, create a list of 'virtues' and 'sins' for a chosen character. What good and evil things have they done, either in total or just recently? Check the list, and see if they're really the hero/villain you think they are. #writing #writingtips #Booksky

Pause for a moment, and read... • Seamus Heaney •

I don’t know why, but I was thinking about this stupid meme I made today. Sometimes you’ve just gotta bring back the classics. 🤷‍♂️😂 #writingcommunity #writesky #memes

I do not consider all of my antagonists evil. A few are unrepentantly so, and I've no shortage of war crimes and nuanced serial killers. How evil are your villains? #WritingCommunity #WritingQ

I wrote 0 words today! 🥈 But I wrote out a plan with post-it notes, so I'm still moving forward 🏆

I went to an art museum the other day, and I saw this piece by Clay Apénouvon... It's made of trash and reminded me of the scraps of our lives we clip together to make something shinier. What do you think of?

Writing Tip: There's nothing stopping you from halting whatever writing project you're on to instead work on something else for a bit. Sometimes going hardcore on a single project can lead to burnout. Taking a break, even to do another project, can seriously help. #writing #writingtips #writesky

I just found a weird error... One chapter title uses the ampersand, and the next chapter title spells out "and" ... Editing never ends! #WritingCommunity

"Emotional" appears twice in The First Sin and just once in Emergence so far. Which isn't to say the books lack emotion... They deal with a wide variety of emotions a great deal. But the word itself? Not so much. #FantasyIndiesJanuary
