Should you journal? If you struggle with mental health and depression, you should likely seek some form of intentional processing of those feelings. Journaling is just one form among many. You could also meditate, visit gardens, go to art gallery openings, etc. #writingcommunity #booksky #journals

I think every writer should write one novel they are afraid their mother might read. That edge of fear is helpful as it diddles the writer with cowardly bravery. Until you have written that novel you have probably been a bit too safe, a little careful. #writingcommunity #booksky #scarynovels #mum

Attachment is where you are emotionally defensive of your prose, to the point where you strongly defend editorial errors. Address this by resting your prose and writing new prose while old prose rests. Your defensive emotional state will shift and re-attach to new works. #writingcommunity #booksky

If you have been putting your writing on a website then take time today to go to that website and READ the TOS to see if you are selling your rights by using the site. No excuse. Read the terrible fine print. Your writing is valuable. Sites drive through content. #writingcommunity #booksky #sales

Saw #Hokum (2026). It's good. Pay money to see it if you can and they let you.

I’m having an obsession with glowy dots for eyes. This started as a study but we see what it turned into 😅.

Play is incredibly important for adults. Many enter adulthood with play not allowed. You, as an author, engage in play with the brain of a reader. You go on mental adventures that re-stimulate the fecund materials of your imagination. How well do you play? #writingcommunity #booksky #writinglife

Nearly all new writers start off measuring their writing by the money metric. This is conditioned by our money culture. If you cling to how much you will make then you are not long for writing. Most writing does not make profit. Do you still need to write? #writingcommunity #booksky #moneymetric
