I went outside!! I swam across the lake, I sat on a log, and I scraped my knee! Made me miss my time at Girl Scout Camp. Shout out to Camp Lyle McLeod which majorly influenced the setting of my world! #laketime #nutriaonalog #writeroutandabout
Lexi Writing Tip #4: It's okay to not write when it's nearly 100 degrees outside. Get that little cold drink, go to a cafe with AC or your local library to beat the heat. Just nap until it's not as hot and the words aren't sticky with sweat. #writingtip #toohot
Lexi Writing Tip #3: Brackets are your friend! If you know don't know the name of a river, the specific word to use in a scene, or how you want to transition from one plot point to another, you can use a bracket with some reminders so you know to come back to it later! ✒️💫[] #Booksky #writingtip
![A blue background with light blue Brackets and asterisks are scattered around. The top text reads "Lexi Tip #3" in white, the middle text reads "[Brackets are your friend]" in black, and a black bracket has a light purple text box that reads "Use us to keep the story moving! If you don't know a word or don't want to write a full scene we can easily be found and edited later!"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dp6stnmwe2zvsabgkfqaoon5/bafkreibuj377ic2aelaoz63geyp6eell2mi3aec6qlmhoi7nbg3qmlqrxu)
Inspiration from the zoo included: chill, be anxious but cute about it, and sleep in. But seriously, I made some good seal observations for selkies reasons 🦭✒️💫 #oregonzoo #writing #BookSky
Lexi Writing Tip #2: A blank white page is the enemy! I do everything to make sure I never start a project with an empty document staring at me, judging me. I change the page color, add a note to myself, or anything to break the seal on a shiny new document! ✒️💫💜 #BookSky #writing #writingtip
I highly recommend every writer get a good assistant who knows the best way to get your word count up is to remove the backspace key 😂 #writerscat #cat #writing
Lexi Writing Tip #1: Keep track of your lore! I prefer having an extremely long @ellipsus.com document (not sponsored, I think they are neat). Having somewhere for all the thoughts helps me know where I want to go and keeps me immersed in the world I've built. ✒️🗺💫 #BookSky #writing #ellipsus
Cleaning up my wizard tower (shared upstairs office space) and found my first map of the world of Stellra! It's still one my favorite maps I've ever drawn 🗺✨️💫
Hello! I'm Lexi and I am brand new to Bluesky! I have always wanted to be a writer and have been telling stories since I could hold a pencil. I've been knee-deep in my current world for a while and I'm so excited to bring it to life! #BookSky #WriterSky #writingcommunity #seekingrepresentation
