pinned post!
Hello new faces and old! I'm Shane and I write fantasy fic that pivots around magic, monsters, and messy characters. I have flash fiction forthcoming from Shacklebound Books and I'm currently working on my debut novel! Would you please share to help me find like-minded friends?

"What if it's not good enough?" Then you'll make it good enough. "What if I'm not good enough?" Then you'll get good enough. "How will I get good enough?" You start by making something. Then you make it good enough. When it's good enough, so are you. Just. Keep. Writing.

Today's my birthday! You ain't gotta get me anything but if you're so inclined to spare a like and a RT, I'd be thankful! Trying to build up again on a new social media platform is a pain. ✨Some of my work✨

I have a quote for you from my recent reread of Frankenstein that really struck me and has been bouncing around my head ever since. “Life, although it may only be an accumulation of anguish, is dear to me, and I will defend it."

The generosity and kindness and overall good vibes of this platform has been a breath of fresh air. I got rid of X right after it was acquired and missed it a lot, but refused to go back. Finding my way here has felt so right. Happy to be here. Happy to see ya’ll.

This is still my advice: Become a writer anyway. Fuck it, do it, it won't save you, but it's still a beautiful dream to write novels and short stories and poems and mingle with other dreamers and make art and laugh in the face of death. And writing is constant death. Live más.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

Hey
#writers
and
#authors
what are the different types of writers block you’ve experienced? I know I’ve experienced three kinds: 1. I don’t have ideas. 2. I don’t know what comes next. 3. What I’m writing isn’t good. Are there any others you’ve felt that I don’t have here?
