2 and 4. And if I could combine them into one thing, that would be great. Instead, I have salt and vinegar chips and deadlines.

What are you thinking about? 1. tea & chocolate 2. books & bedtime 3. ghosts & cheese 4. curly fries & cash

Between this and my car repair bill, it's going to be a truly woeful week of stress. And that's all before my other bills due next week. But, you know, one freaking problem at a time 😭 Every repost helps! 💙 Trying not to panic, but bills are Stress City these days ... ko-fi.com/rjcrunden/go...

Nothing quite like waking up to a 550 bill. Due immediately. Which I don’t have because my entire next paycheque was set aside for my car repairs. Honestly, just fuck my life. I’m so tired of this shit. Why does everything always suck 😭

Let's talk about my #AwesomeCharacters in Two for Slashing. Finn is curious, and caring, makes everyone else feel good. Adam is protective and loyal, will commit crimes for his friends. Noah is patient, and steady. The strong one. Jude is generous, will make time for anyone/everyone.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters Let's have a character appreciation day! Tell me one thing you love about your character! Something that is important to who that are, that you appreciate them for, even at their lowest ❤️ #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Literally a rude AI simulation class I was forced to take has made me cry today so... yeah. That's how good at confrontation I am today. Hahaha.

...this simulation platform class I making me cry, in a bad way. I'm so frustrated with it. Hire me to edit your books so I don't have to deal with this anymore okay?

It's raining, I'm editing clients' books and having a great time, and I have hot dogs and a Diet Coke for dinner. I'm truly thankful. I hope your Sunday is going well, too. 🤍

From my hockey romance series the goalies Connor and Jasper would be demanding a spin-off. I have like 6 titles and vague ideas for them just getting into hijinks because they're goofy and silly and unintentional troublemakers. Pure joy in book form. Total fluff. Anatoly and Felix are there.

ELwolfsblood |Commissions Open|@elwolfsblood.bsky.social · 2d ago

Late night yap time! Your side characters are mutinying, one of them demands a spin off. Talk about the idea to fulfill the side character’s desire for the spotlight, what medium will you use? Will it be same genre? Maybe a prequel with a cameo? Whatcha think? #WritingPrompt #WritingQ

I really can't participate properly in this one because it'll 100% spoil the antagonist in Two for Slashing. So here's a gif of Connor McDavid in full hockey gear writing on a typewriter. (Every gif of exasperated McDavid is very much the vibe of the antagonist tho...) #AwesomeCharacters

Q5: What can we, the Weeknight Writers community, do in the next week to make your life a little more pleasant? #WeeknightWriters

A4: getting ahead of school assignments will definitely make next week easier so I'm gonna do that this weekend. :) #WeeknightWriters

Weeknight Writers@weeknightwriters.bsky.social · 4d ago

Q4: What can you do in the next week to make your life a little more pleasant? #WeeknightWriters

A3: you're gonna be surprised at this but it wasn't potatoes! (I'm making sweet potato fries right now to go with my soup.) This week's joy has been cooler weather and the genuine ability to rest when I need it. And also cleaning TF out of my room/office. #WeeknightWriters

Weeknight Writers@weeknightwriters.bsky.social · 4d ago

Q3: Let's cheer things up a bit! What has brought you joy in the past week? Remember, no joy is too small! #WeeknightWriters

A2: sleeping. Hahaha. But for real, I am good so I will open the floor to answer any editing questions or marketing questions that the community might have. #WeeknightWriters

Weeknight Writers@weeknightwriters.bsky.social · 4d ago

Q2: Is there anything specific you're struggling with this week? Let us know about it and we'll see what we can do to help! #WeeknightWriters

Oh, I'm good. Everything is fine. Nothing unusual happening globally at all... But for real, I'm genuinely pretty good. Tired but that's normal. I have had the most horrific nightmares the past few nights though and idk what that's about. Yuck. #WeeknightWriters

Weeknight Writers@weeknightwriters.bsky.social · 4d ago

Q1: How are you holding up this week? (Or not holding, as the case may be) #WeeknightWriters

Hi again #WeeknightWriters I am K.S. Nightingale, you may call me Kai, freelance editor and author! My current WIP is the "haunted car monster hunter" WIP and the sequel to my hockey slasher novel is also kind of happening... slowly. It's been A Week TM. I hope you're all well!!

Weeknight Writers@weeknightwriters.bsky.social · 4d ago

Hello #WeeknightWriters ! Come on in, introduce yourself and your WIP, and let us know how your writing week is going! Or not going, that's valid too

Gotta finish my dang assignments for the week, then get to editing for my beloved clients. (I have room for more clients this month! Just you know... if you wanna hire me...) It's POURING rain and I just wanna go sit on the front step and listen to it though hahaha.

I know things are tight right now for just about everyone, which is why I wanted to let you know if you're looking for a little light escapism, An Embarrassment of Itches (Ginny Reese Mysteries Book 1) is 99 cents on most digital platforms AND the rest of the series is on Hoopla. (1st book in limbo)

I might be too tired to play a game. 😭 I was looking forward to some gaming time all day and now I'm just... blah. Worn out. Oh well.

The first one is my MAIN plan. Everything else I've had to do is my backup.

Edmonds Scanner@edmondsscanner.bsky.social · last wk.

What's your backup career plan? 1. famously reclusive author 2. skateboarding ninja 3. legendary monster 4. wild witch of the woods

Thinking about taking apart a cardigan sweater I made and reusing the yarn for something else. (Sweater no longer fits me and resizing it means taking apart more than half the sweater anyway.)

It's cold enough that I want to put on my fluffy warm housecoat while I work on edits. 🥰 I know it'll be warm by the end of the week but I am going to enjoy the cold, rainy weather as long as I can.

Post one of your favourite breakfast foods: Since I know you all expect me to post potatoes of some kind, I'm going to be objectively weird about this:

post one of your favourite breakfast foods 🍳🧇🥞🍩🥐

Mostly indoors. In bed. With a cat snoring by my feet.

Laura (She/Her)@lauramusicals.bsky.social · last wk.

21. Read outside or indoors? #BookSky

101 Dalmatians and Black Beauty, probably. Oh wait! The Portrait of Dorian Gray. UNLESS Aldous Huxley counts as a classic author? Then Brave New World or Joseph Heller's Catch-22.

Laura (She/Her)@lauramusicals.bsky.social · last wk.

20. Favourite classic? #BookSky

Water Moon. Good Omens. Battle Royale. The Dark Tower. Witches Abroad or Wyrd Sisters (Discworld.) A Darker Shade of Magic.

Laura (She/Her)@lauramusicals.bsky.social · last wk.

19. Name a book you think everyone should read #BookSky

Urban fantasy. It's fallen out of fashion but I love it so much. I need more that are written in a contemporary style and that don't follow high fantasy conventions (eg highly descriptive and overwritten.)

Laura (She/Her)@lauramusicals.bsky.social · last wk.

18. Underrated genre? #BookSky

Mmm... too many things to accurately describe! The sequel to A Magic Steeped in Poison (I forget what it's called!) and uh... whichever the next Dream Harbour book I have is.

Laura (She/Her)@lauramusicals.bsky.social · last wk.

17. What's on your tbr list? #BookSky

Rewitched by Lucy Jane Wood. It's pretty good but I have t had the time to read much!

Laura (She/Her)@lauramusicals.bsky.social · last wk.

16. Current read? #BookSky
