A dystopian world where nobody can feel negative emotions except for some people “war seekers” who can feel exactly one negative emotion and are seen as dangerous because of it.
so, to the writers... what was the terrible novel you wrote at 14? Mine was about a redhaired freedom fighter called Eleanor Sunstripe
Question for people with RSD: have you ever managed to stop feeling like every little mistake is the end of the world or managed to stop feeling nauseous every time you mess up? Advice please? 🥺
A2: Starting my new job. It’s a serious improvement from my last in almost every way, and I feel way better about my place right now!
Q2: What is one thing that’s brought you joy this week? #WeeknightWriters
A1: Some days are better than others. Have a strained relationship with my parents and severe anxiety. On the plus side, live with my super supportive partner and got a new job I like, so, that’s good. #WeeknightWriters
Q1: How are you holding up this week? Vent as much as you need to, this is a safe space (as safe as any public social media space can be) #WeeknightWriters
I’m early in revisions for my queer YA romance set it in a prestigious private school. I’ll definitely be looking for beta readers and critique partners very soon! (The downside of being very anxious; feel weird about approaching anyone lol) #CampRevPit #CRPDamselflies
𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝟭𝟯: #ABCPit Welcome to #CampRevPit's Mixer Event! Come gather 'round the fire—pitch your project, and tag if you're seeking alpha readers, beta readers, or critique partners.
My biggest crutch word is “just.” I use it an *embarrassing* amount. #CRPDamselflies
Let's talk craft, #CRPDamselflies! Post your most hideous crutch phrases, and then maybe we can chime in on each other's posts with creative alternatives or advice on how to omit them! I discovered I overuse the phrase "the fact that"... and the fix is to cut it, 9/10 times 😅
Ooh, this is a hard one! My gut is saying Eddie because we’re both pretty similar, but Georgie is so upbeat and fun! Also Sebastian is way too cool for me, otherwise I’d pick him. I think I’m going with Georgie. (Assuming I was a teen again lol) #CRPDamselflies
Here's today's prompt, #CRPDamselflies! I'm going to try for one last Cabin Writing Sprint this Saturday. 📝 What times are best for you all? I have a busy day but I'll try to make something work!
This was an interesting one because I don’t know actors very well, so I had to do some research 😅 Decided Rob Gomez has the right vibes for Sebastian (just give him longer hair lol) #CRPDamselflies
Happy Wednesday, #CRPDamselflies! We'll lighten up with today's prompt after what I inflicted on you yesterday. 😅 Two reminders: 1. All feedback is due tomorrow! Don't forget to email your CPs with your notes on their work. Please reach out to me if there are any issues. 1/2
About my YA romance! - It used to be set in modern day, but now is set in 2012 - It was originally conceived as an ensemble mystery audio drama - The LI is now on the archery team, but was originally a swimmer #CampRevPit #CRPDamselflies
𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝟵: #CampTrivia Tuesday is Trivia time! Post 3 weird facts about your WIP: 2 truths, 1 lie. Let us guess the fake. Go, #CampRevPit! 🔥
Eddie would likely shove himself back into the closet, especially if their breakup was angsty. Alternatively, he would stay out but would try to date more “respectable” guys (quiet, from a rich family, etc.). He might even marry one eventually. But he’d be bored and less himself. #CRPDamselflies
Let's infuse a dose of reality into those sweet HEA's, just for kicks. 😆 Brainstorm an alternate ending. Does your MC eventually meet someone else (who's obviously not as perfect for them)? Do they end up alone?? (This prompt assumes your WIP follows romance genre conventions.) #CRPDamselflies
Pitch version because I can’t resist! “You showed up with your Long hair and motorcycle. I cannot hide now.” #CRPDamselflies
Let's flex our creative muscles on a Monday, #CRPDamselflies! 😆 Hope you enjoy this prompt! Example: "It's not just a myth, Happily ever after. Love has chosen me"
Yours is one such name With which I am acquainted Closer than my own (I don’t know if this even makes sense grammatically lol) #CRPDamselflies

I applied for a writing residency earlier this month I JUST CAUGHT TWO SEPERATE TYPOS BOTH I AND MY GIRLFRIEND MANAGED TO MISS IN THE SAMPLE I SENT. 😭😭😭
It’s been different for different projects but I’d say nowadays I’m at a 4. I start a barebones outline, then start writing when I get stuck and fill stuff in, then go back and update the outline. #CRPDamselflies
Hello, #CRPDamselflies! As we gear up for a day of sprinting, discuss your writing methods! How do you approach a new project?
The myth is that Edward Ecklewood I and his wife were generous philanthropists when they opened Ecklewood Academy. (They were not generous nor philanthropists.) #CampRevPit #CRPDamselflies
𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝟲: #CampMyth What's a camp without that one local legend passed around the campfire? Today, your manuscript is that legend! Create a campfire myth about your WIP's world. Spooky, silly, or serious—go wild! #CampRevPit

Eddie is closeted and still trying to pretend to himself that he isn’t gay, and on top of that, his father already hates Sebastian. #CRPDamselflies
Here’s your Day 6 prompt, #CRPDamselflies!
“Silence is golden, and you've got my hopes up We talk too much No hesitation, what are we waiting for? We talk too much.” - Talk Too Much by Coin #CRPDamselflies
Here's our daily prompt, #CRPDamselflies!
(Romance➡️Thriller) A new student arrives at a prestigious private school. That’s when everything else starts going wrong. Now the principal’s son must fight to stay alive as the newcomer gets closer and closer to getting him. #CampRevPit #CRPDamselflies
𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝟱: #GenreSwapFriday Hello, Campers! Let's have a little fun this morning! Pitch your project as a totally different genre. (That dark fantasy? Now, a rom-com!) #CampRevPit
Recently, I’ve realized how much I love opposites attract. Also quite a fan of childhood friends to strangers to lovers. Weirdly, not a huge enemies to lovers fan (though rivals to lovers I do like.) Also the only love triangle I like is A likes B, C wingmans, A and C fall in love. #CRPDamselflies
Today's prompt: #CRPDamselflies
“Perhaps if he looks at it as a punishment, he can convince himself to go through with it.” #OneLineMC #CampRevPit #CRPDamselflies
DAY 3: #𝗢𝗻𝗲𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗠𝗖 Good morning, Campers! Today, we focus on your MC. Share a line from your manuscript that tells us all we need to know about your MC's personality.
#CRPDamselflies I currently live in a 1 bedroom apartment with my partner, so my writing space is the living or bedroom, and I don’t have pics of those. 😅 I best get in the zone with music or a writing related YouTube video with headphones over both my ears.
Hello, #CRPDamselflies! Today's prompt. FYI, if your post contains the word "b-u-g" it will no longer appear in our feed. 😂 My effort to cull the entomology posts. As always, don't forget our hashtag and ALT text. :)
#CRPDamselflies I want to start revisions and add at least 1000 words in the process. I need to overall add much more, but that’s the starting goal right now.
#CRPDamselflies, I'm loving these descriptions of your MC's and how they compare and contrast to your own personalities! I'm adding one bonus prompt today as we gear up for a few sprint sessions this week. You can reply to this one directly.
#CRPDamselflies Eddie and I share the same anxiety (and he’s likely also autistic like me but that was not intentional lol). Basically our brains work similarly. One big way we differ is that he grew up rich AF, and I absolutely did not. Also he’s less artistic than I am.
Good morning, #CRPDamselflies! Here is our Day 2 cabin prompt! Don't forget to use our hashtag. I'm excited for us to get to know a bit more about each other and our characters!
#CampRevPit I’ve made it to the top of the mountain, now I have to clear a path to get back down.
DAY 2 #𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗠𝗮𝗽 Hope your first night by the fire sparked your inspiration! 🔥 Today, your manuscript is your map. What stage of your project are you at? Are you lost in the woods? Climbing a mountain? Sailing the seven seas? Use a visual metaphor or a gif, or even draw us a map. #CampRevPit
#CRPDamselflies My WIP is set in the wealthy fictional town of Scandal, Oregon, at a prestigious private school called Ecklewood Academy—named after its founders, the great grandparents of the MC. The town is fairly important and the school is extremely important to the story.
Alright, Campers, time for our first Damselfly Cabin prompt! Don't forget to use #CRPDamselflies and ALT Text for your images. 😊
#CampRevPit #CRPDamselflies Hi! My name’s Artie, I’ll be editing my YA queer romance about a closeted gay boy in a prestigious private school in 2012.
DAY 1 #𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗞𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗼𝗳𝗳 Good morning, scribbler bugs! Let's kick off #CampRevPit with some positive vibes! Tell us—what will you be working on during Camp? Pitch it in any way, shape, or form that fits your mood.
