F/NB WAYFARERS x MURDERBOT x SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN Everything fell apart when the human came aboard. Instead of nice meals and quiet cargo runs, Tai's stuck with bickering crewmates, sinister criminals, explosions, and worse, a human who wants to be friends. #SFPit #A #Q #R #SO #OV #LGBT

Vibrating with excitement at the commission shaped things in my insta DMs 👀

I am so !!!!!!!!!

Writer who can't remember to post regularly on bluesky commits to creating a writing instagram account: stay tuned for more silly decisions from yours truly

🚨 RED ALERT. My new therapist understands how the publishing industry works so now I can't pessimism my way out of my author dreams. Shocking and unprecedented times, ya'll.

I am pondering the concept of starting a writing instagram account... but do I have the commitment to actually post on it regularly....

Reminder to everyone with chronic mental or physical illness or disability: ✨ you deserve a doctor who collaborates with you + treats your needs + experience with respect ✨ not only are there often a lot of options for meds but they don’t all work the same way + those differences can be huge

Made the horrifying discovery last week that my book is written in the wrong tense and now that I've rewritten a chunk, it's occurred to me I've been shooting myself in the foot with past tense for years. Everything is SO MUCH BETTER.

my sleep schedule is so horrifically ruined and I have to return to work next week 😅 help

Had my recurring writer crisis about publishing trends and marketability and then ate an icecream and felt much better. Next time I'm skipping straight to icecream.

Turns out the musicians who started staking out real estate in my head were really serious about sticking around... Bone app the teeth! #writersky #readersky #writingcommunity

Can science please explain what Bleachers put in their music to make it slap SO HARD?

Phone alarm: bitch take your meds Me: fuck you I’m eating Later: hmm did I take my meds or no

Babe wake up THE CIVIL WARS JUST RELEASED A SONG IN THE YEAR 2025??

Can't wait to have money again so I can spend it all on commissions of my WIP characters 🥰

My band romance WIP has somehow become a split cell and now I'm having Thoughts about Yet Another romance WIP. IM A YOUNG ADULT SCIENCE FICTION WRITER??? Why is this happening to me?

*slaps band romance manuscript* You wouldn't believe how many hidden Taylor Swift references I can fit in this badboy! #writersky #booksky

I say this every year, but in case anyone else needs to hear it: not everything you write/create needs to sell or have some deeper purpose. It’s okay to experiment, to not worry if every sentence is perfect, to just write something for the fun of it that no one else needs to ever see.

Being an artist is like "when i finish this art project i am going to reward myself for working so hard by making this new art project" Over and over until you die.

Just finished the final season of Cobra Kai and I'm unsure how to continue life without more of this stupid karate show 😭😭

"what's wrong with you?" [slaps my 100,000 word manuscript on the table] that should explain the gist of it

I wrote almost 6000 words today... can't stop won't stop

I've written 35,000 words this month already... why am I always possessed by the ghost of a dead writer in April?

There are so many pitch events now that I'm unfamiliar with that when I see amazing pitches I am paralysed with indecision on whether I can/should like to support 😂

Absolutely stoked to find out my manuscript made the short list AND #10Queries of one of the editors I submitted to for #RevPit I never usually get anywhere with these kinds of things, but looks like the work I'm putting into my silly little space cadet story is finally starting to pay off 🥹🥰
