I love Charlie Brown and Snoopy - especially the cartoons that revolve around Snoopy's writing career! #snoopy #peanuts #cartoons #writesky

The book you're afraid to write? That's the one someone needs to read

Writing is hard because it matters. If it were easy, it wouldn't be worth doing

Heat wave forced me to change my plans. Extra time means I can write more than I expected. #WritingCommunity #writing

If your story keeps calling you back, that means it matters. Trust it #skywriters

Another rejection today. I feel like agents tend to send those on Fridays? What a way to start the weekend. 🙄 #WritingCommunity #writing #query

It doesn't matter what I'm doing... the story ideas just keep hitting me at random ideas. Now I just need the time to figure out the parts before and after. #WritingCommunity #writing

Received a response from a query and didn't want to open it. Another rejection. Not today but maybe another day it will be a different response from someone else. #writing #amquerying ##WritingCommunity

Finally some nice weather. Walk was a very needed break from editing.

Sometimes your brain just hurts and you can’t write anymore. Give yourself permission to take a walk, go to yoga, take a nap, watch a show, play with the dog, call a friend. Do whatever replenishes you. ❤️ #writing #writingcommunity #booksky

Rejection today for a query. Waiting to hear back on two more.

Really rough week. Two coworkers passed away this week.

Had a productive weekend outlining a new project. I want to keep working on it but it is time to wrap it up as those adult responsibilities keep piling up. #wrierslife #WritingCommunity

Does anyone still do Camp NaNo anymore? April is right around the corner. #WritingCommunity #writing #NaNoWriMo

Overtime was canceled at my job tonight. Oh darn, I just gained two hours to write I wasn't expecting!!! #WritingCommmunity

Me being hit by a chapter book idea that I’m both incredibly excited about—and simultaneously terrified to do. 😳😂🫠 #writingcommunity #kidlit

Join the squad, new book!

That anxious limbo phase waiting to hear back from pitches/queries. #WritingCommunity

Truth people! #writers

Never be afraid to write your heart out. To write your ass off. To write until your hands cramp. Because when you look back at the miles of ink behind you you might just have a masterpiece.

Finishing up the videos from the writer's conference I attended in December this week. Learning a lot!

Got my first response of the partial request submitted last week. The agent seemed really enthusiastic during the pitch. But she is passing because she has a current author with similar themes. But still wants to read more of my work in the future. X_X Dang it.

I have submitted all four queries with the partial requests from my pitches last month for my novel. And now... the waiting game starts! Not anxious at all.🫠 #WritingCommunity #writerslife #amquerying

Write the damn thing. Even if it gets no love and you feel alone and your efforts fruitless. Write the damn thing. When you write the damn thing you finish what you’ve started. Publish your weird stories and let them scamper into the world. Let them breathe. Then write the next damn thing. #writer

Synopsis is done. Partial requests put together. Personalizing query letters at the moment. Going to look at them again tomorrow and then... submit??? #thisisactuallyhappening #writerslife #writingcommunity

Hands up, is this you? #BookSky #Books

Hosted my first Book Club event at my house and it went well!

Taking a break today to work on the book I'm supposed to read for book club next week. Probably should have started the 500 page book sooner. Oops.

Do you have days where you are just too tired to do anything after work and just want to go to sleep? That was my yesterday.

#WritingCommunity #AmWriting #AmEditing #AmQuerying #IndieAuthor

1 page goal completed! One more read and then personalizing query letters. So close.

So close to having this synopsis down to one page! Word count is currently at 669. Missing three lines to make it fight. Overall half a page in the past couple of days getting to hard to cut more. But it is going to happen before this week ends! #writingcommunity #writerswoes #igotthis

Synopsis done at a page and a half. Now to edit and trim it down a bit. So nice to see physical progress!

I am determined to finish that synopsis today! Almost done! #writingcommunity #writerslife #writingwoes

How do you motivate yourself when you don't feel motivated? Hitting that wall right now staring at the screen. #writers #writing #WritingCommunity #writersofbluesky #needmotivation

What role does the weather play in your writing? I tend to be the most productive in the winter since I'm not a fan of the cold. #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky #writerslife #amwriting
