Anyone else get so engrossed in writing they do randomly stupid things? I grabbed my electric kettle to make tea, filled it with water, and put it on my gas burner. Reader: electric kettles DO NOT GO ON GAS BURNERS. Sidenote: it went up in flames immediately #amwriting #writingcommunity

Spent all day working on book edits and realized my whole personality revolves around the trope DO NOT GO INTO THE FORBIDDEN WOODS. So what's your favorite trope? #amwriting #writingcommunity

I love how my edit letter for my sold book dropped right after I wrote this🤣 Apparently I am changing course for a bit.

I love that feeling I get when I start writing something new and I just can't wait to get back at it all the time because my whole brain is living in that world rather than the real one🤣 #amwriting #writingcommunity

25k into this gothic christmas ghost story calls for an aesthetic, particularly when it's seasonally appropriate. #amwriting #writingcommunity
