I’ve put off writing all day because I have a hard task to accomplish. I have two versions of the same scene that need to be combined. I must have been dreaming when I did this, but I put the same basic scene into my story a few chapters apart with slightly different characters #writingcommunity

This is insane. And scary. I am thinking the only way to prove innocence is a keystroke program that records every word you write start to finish. #writingcommunity #writers #writing #publishing futurism.com/artificial-i...

I wrote a very good chapter this morning that introduced an exciting new character. I loved it. Tonight I will delete it. She wasn’t in the outline, complicated the plot, and existed to info dump. 😔😔😔 #5amwritersclub #editing #writingcommunity #amwritinh

Even an old lady like me got a, well a TRIKE! But it’s a fun and easy way to go about my business. It even takes me up hills (HILLS!) with ease. I call her Mercedes so I can tell people I have a new Mercedes.

It is a happy Friday. The big question, the only question, is why is writing outside so easy compared to writing in a house? #writers #writingcommunity #amwriting #5amwritersclub
The Oddessy is about a dude who helped sack a city, murdered women and children, and then killed a whole bunch more people when he got home. Why did he sack a city? Because his best friend was dumped by his wife for another guy. The original villian’s journey. 🤣 #5amwritersclub #Writers #writing
Even if you don’t care about people dying, remember that war is a leading cause of inflation. War: Disrupts supply chains Diverts raw materials Raises taxes Increases money supply Now, if you are rich and can invest in the misery of others, war is a good thing. ☠️ #Ukraine #Iran #inflation

Fun fact: The British didn’t surrender just to George Washington at the Battle of Yorktown. They surrendered to five French Commanders, 10,000 French troops, and 29 French warships. French troops outnumbered American troops, and it can be safely said, that without France there would be no America

Good morning. ☀️ I overslept for a good reason. I wrote until midnight and then listened to music half the night. Waking up happy, I promptly fed the stray cat who lives on my porch, and quit my job. Okay, I didn’t quit my job, but the rest is true. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

I want to read this. Sean Lennon’s remixes and outtakes of his parents music made me take a second look at Yoko Ono. Classically trained pianist, art exhibits, self-published author, went to school with the future emperor of Japan, and then met a Beatle. #Books m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nexp...
Yoko Ono's Grapefruit, first edition, a major conceptual art book, inspired John Lennon's "Imagine".
