#WIPSnips today is the most vibing of vibes. I don't even have a specific word to replace #mire - just a situation. #WritingCommunity #Writing #WriteSky #WritingPrompt

The #WIPSnips word for September 26th is "mire" #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

#WIPSnips vibes today. #Absorb = suck May have used this snip before. Honestly can't remember :) #WritingCommunuty #Writing #WriteSky #Writingprompt

Business idea: "Come enjoy some booze and brews on the Blue's Clues Booze Cruise!" #parenting #tongue-twisters

First #WIPSnips I've been able to post all week! Haven't even had vibes for the others, oddly enough. #Leave #WritingCommunity #Writing #WriteSky #WritingPrompt

Writing a noir short story about my 3yo daughter rescuing a toy from the basement. I’m either out of ideas, or this is the best idea I’ve ever had. #parenting #writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

An easy way to understand how fast life moves is to multiply how old your child is by how nostalgic you are for Miss Rachel on a 1-10 scale. For me: 3 (years old) x 5 nostalgia points means life is moving 15 times too fast. Stay present, folks. #parenting

Today's #WIPSnips #red is featured in the first non-fantasy short story I've written. Basically a stream-of-conscious hike I took, during which I feared running into a black bear. #WritingCommunity #Writing #WriteSky #hiking

It's Count Chocula season!

#WIPSnips vibes today. #difference = "change(d)" When you hear virgin, what image comes to mind? #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #WritingPrompt

I tried to explain to my daughter that a flu shot helps fight against bugs. She liked that. Then I proceeded to tell her it was like putting a little piece of dead bug in your arm so your body could fight the big bug when it came. Cue 3yo meltdown. Learn from my mistakes. #parenting

To any adult man who needs to hear this: you can tell people you liked K-Pop Demon Hunters without qualifying that your daughter or significant other made you watch it. It's a great movie with a great soundtrack.

Another #WIPSnips from the short witch story. Vibes: #Worst = Worse #WritingCommunity #Writing

Today in random things my 3 year old said: Daughter and I stare out the door, singing Rain Rain Go Away. The song finishes. It's still raining. I begin again. Daughter: No, Daddy. Listen. I have something to tell you. Don't sing that song anymore. It doesn't work. #parenting

Today's #WIPSnips involves a boy and a witch discussing real estate. Specifically, the usefulness of a #half bathroom. #WritingCommunity #Writing #WriteSky

Today on Random Things My Three-Year-Old Said: "I like everything in the world except blenders and vacuums." #parenting

I've got a new video up! It's a review of the latest book I read, so a bit different from my usual stuff! #writingcommunity #video #youtube #books youtu.be/twGtCvqgz7w

Going with vibes again for today's #WIPSnips #pressure = force #WritingCommunity #Writing #WriteSky

Slightly diminish a book. To Inconvenience a Mockingbird

Back to #WIPSnips! That was too long a break from writing :( This is from the 1st short story I ever finished (today!). Going with vibes. #Ability = strength #WritingCommunity #writing #writesky

Doctors I trust more than RFK

If you see this, post a vampire that's not Dracula.

Make the author freak out by buying her books here: www.amazon.com/stores/Aud-C...

Short story word count goal: less than 2000. First draft final word count: 2263. Not bad, but (ugh) so typical! #writing #writingcommunity #writesky

Started my first short story and...I kinda love it? My goal is to write ten of them in three months. Try to find my author's voice. Here's a snippet if anyone's interested! #writingcommunity #writing #writesky

Quick Question #WritingCommunity and #WriteSky: How long is a short story? Internet research has told me anywhere from >0 to 6000. I'm assuming 2000 for myself, having never written one before. Any thoughts or tips?

Haven't posted in a while because I'm too busy deciding if I want a dog or a trip to Japan. Leaning heavily towards dog, pushing Japan another decade or so. I'll get back to #writing soon, assuming the aforementioned potential dog doesn't chew my laptop too badly. #WritingCommunity

Welp. I did it. I trunked the epic fantasy WIP I've been working on for the past decade. In hindsight, I should have started smaller. Unsolicited advice to new aspiring authors: start with short stories. Find your voice. That's where I'm headed now. #writingcommunity #writing #writesky

When 17yo Danbi travels to a hidden world to dig up her estranged father’s secrets, she finds a magic-stealing serial killer on the hunt for her rare, energy-generating powers. Powers that might stop his rampage—if she could just figure out how to use them. #PosterPit #Q #F #YA

What gif pops up first when you type your name?

Editing, in summary... Day 1: This is so bad I should throw it in the trash. Day 2: I've figure it out! The one thing that's wrong! Day 3: There are so many things wrong. Day 4: All I need to do is rewrite 3/4 of it. Day 5: Begins new WIP. #WritingCommunity #AmEditing #Writesky #writing

Since I just edited a whole book I made a video all about it!!! Please check it out, always trying to grow my channel. youtu.be/exjJMfr4kdc #writingcommunity #amediting #signalboost #video

I'm attending this event. Repost if you think others will find this helpful! worldshift.manyworldswriting.com Lots of talks, online, and free version available too! #writingcommunity #writesky #fantasysky #writing #writers #amwriting #amediting #editing #novelwriting

The perfect gif for when my wife and I see a centipede in the house.

Mr. Tourist = the demon possessing Olive in this scene. #Writing #WritingCommunity #fantasysky #WIPSnips #Split

I've cracked the code for reducing word count! All you need to do is rewrite draft 1 so many times you get sick of it being so shitty. Then you'll do ANYTHING to make it good...even delete those scenes and characters you thought were funny but serve no purpose. #WritingCommunity #AmEditing #Writing

Quoteposting to boost visibility of this #Questpit pitch one final time for today:

Anyone else's kid(s) ask them to read bedtime books in a character voice? Just read The Storybook Knight in the key of Mickey and, I swear, my soul left my body for a hot minute. #Booksky #Parenting

Post a female character you love ❤️

Ever write something in your novel so niche and technical that you come back to edit a few months later, read it, and proceed to question the IQ of both your past and present self? #WritingCommunity #Writing #WriteSky

Probably going to cut this whole chapter, but we'll see how draft 2 goes. #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #Writing #Boss

Going with vibes today: positive = sure. #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #writing

Introducing the newest fragrance from Goat.

Any time my kid spends the day with my mother I feel the need to inject her with vegetables. That's all I wanted to say. #parenting

It's Saturday! 📺 Poat a cartoon TV series that you love.

Putting out there that I will be interested in adopting a border collie in the future. I know what to expect - had one for 10 years. However, she came to us through a friend. Does anyone have advice or a trusted website where I can begin the search? #dogs #collies #bordercollies #pets

My daughter has started speaking in tongues. I don't know whether to write down what she says and use it as spell-casting inspiration for my writing, or call an exorcist. #WritingCommunity #Parenting #Writing
