Realize you really should be doing the dishes. But really just get something down. Don’t worry about a word goal. One sentence is enough. Then let it sit until tomorrow. #SummerofStories

I don’t think I have ever been as chill as cows on the beach. I will try my best not to write them into a disaster story.

What is it about a twisty mountain road that gets the inspiration flowing? I have a feeling it’s the desperate need not to look at the sharp drop offs as we speed past beautiful landscapes.

With tremors getting stronger and lava creeping up the hospital walls, a rag tag medical team rushes to save their fragile patients before the moon implodes. The Last Lifeboat #BluePit #Writers #Q #A #SF #ND

My current WIP was inspired by a perfect combination of documentaries. A deep dive into Hurricane Katrina was followed by the Titanic. From there my story was born. #Bluepithype #Amquerying #TheLastLifeboat

I'm going with vibes today. But this is right before Vivica goes on the attack. There just isn't much for her to attack. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

Best Star Trek captain. Wrong answers only.

Best STAR TREK captain. Wrong answers only.

When we’re dealing with an emergency, something completely beyond our control, who decides who survives? What are the deciding factors? And what can you do when it all goes wrong? #BluePitHype #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

The world is ending so that makes things pretty bad. If Mya had the time she'd blame the company that terraformed her planet and didn't do the final safety checks, but she can't do much about them. And I wouldn't allow her in a room with the Governor. #BluePitHype #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

Mya's boss couldn't run an evacuation and the Emergency Department. He chose the Emergency Department, she got the evacuation and the plot. #BluePitHype #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

End of the world chic! #SummerOfStories #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

Mya and Robert discuss Thom, my dear little gremlin. I promise they keep him around. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

How about an antonym? I'm going with dry. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

I'm a dyslexic teacher in Massachusetts who's been telling stories as long as I can remember. Admittedly, most of the time those stories were to my dogs. I'm currently writing in Science Fiction, but have a history with Fantasy as well. #BluePitHype #AmQuerying #WriteSky

Mya found this scientific article on Thursday. This was after they lost electricity, but before the earthquakes started taking out the building's foundation. She's having a bad week. #WIPSnips #AmQuering #TheLastLifeboat

Every journey starts with a decision to begin. Today I’m excited to launch my small online store. A simple start, built with care, offering products made for everyday use. If you support small businesses, I’d truly appreciate it. 🛍️Store: t.co/QnMJYmgxpA Thank you for being here from the start. ❤️

Editing. Not the first edit, but the 50th edit where now I've lived this story too many times. These characters are invading my dreams and demanding things. Plus my other WIPs want attention. That and commas. #Summerofstories

I’m supposed to be editing, not coming with ideas for a new WIP. Why does the traffic feel like a character?

Of all the characters I've killed in my writing over the years, those birds make me feel the guiltiest. Spoiler, the bench doesn't make it either. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

It's just another day waiting for the end of the world. #WIPSnips #AmQuering #TheLastLifeboat

This is a bit of a spoiler, but I love it too much not too share. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet x The Expanse The galaxy is being destroyed & everyone's is pretending it's just another day. A crew of chaos, trauma & outcasts decide to save the galaxy that rejected them, because they found each other in it. But they won't admit it. #QueerPit #A #SF #H

PPD looks different when you're trying to keep out a poisonous atmosphere with limited resources. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying #TheLastLifeboat

I had to go with a synonym today. Fights break out in Emergency Departments all over the galaxy apparently. #WIPSnips

I officially have a first draft! I'm going to set the space whales aside to simmer before editing and go back to the space hospital for yet another round of revisions.

And the WIP officially has a trash document. I'm not even at the editing phase. #AmWriting

We all need a Thom, who can fix things, and a Vivica, who can plan ahead. Mya needs both to survive the end of the world. #WIPSnips

I doubt the architects who built the hospital on Roothvise had heard of Stonewall, but they built it to survive a riot. #SundaySnips

One last #Unhingedpit to just go all the way off the rails. THE LAST LIFEBOAT. #Q #A #SF

Have you ever wanted to smell like your favorite character? Now you have the opportunity to smell like the medical team from THE LAST LIFEBOAT. (Warning: Scents were sampled after the collapse of Roothvise.) #UnhingedPit #A #Q #SF

One of the last radio signals from the failed mining outpost, Roothvise, included this manuscript. THE LAST LIFEBOAT #UnhingedPit #Q #A #SF

Vivica's love language is food. #WIPSnips #AmQuerying

A civil war 15 years before the story began reshaped Fido's entire life. Her entire family died. She left her home planet and became a child soldier. At the end of the war she was left dependent on the charity of her friends and her own quick wits. #Juniplex

Fido is still debating whether ghosts or aliens would be better. She has slightly shifted towards aliens. The threat of a ghost ship that makes everyone go insane still gives her nightmares. Aliens have the possibility of being friendly. #OCAsk #OCQOTD #OCSKY #AmWriting

How would you measure the end of the world? Vivica is counting Mya's caffeine intake. #WipSnips #Amquerying

My characters are asking me questions and they're not being nice about it. How is it my fault that the space ship is designed that way? #AmWriting

Fido likes to dance in summer storms. Mya likes to watch the birds. #OCAsk #OCQOTD

Mya knows bad news is coming. In the age of space ships some bad news needs to be hand delivered. #WIPSnips #Amquerying
