Back to spending every spare minute trying to make the hobby the day job 😮💨 #WriteSky
Back to work tomorrow. Back to daydreaming about all the writing I could be doing instead… #WriteSky
Back from holiday renewed and with a list of things to work on: - an idea waiting to be built on - a re-write plan for one of my oldest WIPs (so excited!) - 3 WIPs off the shelf fighting for my attention first - a new-found confidence to actually write the finale in my six-book series #WriteSky
Me plotting a re-write of one of my oldest WIPs from a sunbed on holiday. Classic 👌 #WriteSky
I devoured Sparking Fire Out of Fate like a thing possessed, reading all 402 pages in 2 days. I COULD NOT STOP. I absolutely adore these characters, and this ending did the world perfect justice. @brigidkemmerer.bsky.social did such an outstanding job! I’m in awe 🤩 Off to mourn my reading binge now❤️
Reading on holiday hits different. Where else can I read 200 pages and still have time to go back for more?
Holiday read 2! Sparking Fire out of Fate by Brigid Kemmerer. Can’t wait to devour this like I devoured the others! I love this universe. I’m going to be so sad when I finish it ❤️ #BookSky
Finished Blood on the Boardwalk by @authordonnataylor.bsky.social and it’s made me itch to write about vampires again! I loved every page! It’s woken something in me 💪
First time in a few years I’ve not been in the middle of drafting when my holiday comes round. Getting so much reading done 😂 #WriteSky
Nothing for me, but I want to hear your #QuestPit success stories! Who got industry engamenet?
If anyone’s interested, these are the books I’ve brought on holiday 😎 Blood on the Boardwalk - Donna Taylor Sparking Fire Out of Fate - Brigid Kemmerer Hold Back the Tide - Melinda Salisbury
I’m off on holiday tomorrow, and I THINK I’ve narrowed down which books to take 😂
Now that I’ve finished drafting my prequel, do I go back to a shelved WIP and dive into edits, or do I add another first draft to the ever growing list? Both are excellent options 🤔 #WriteSky
Thought a lot about old WIPs sitting on the editing shelf today. It might be time to dust another one off #WriteSky
Need to do my holiday book shortlist so I don’t end up taking 7-8 books 😂 #BookSky
What’s the most specific writing advice that stuck with you? For me, it’s to never use the word ‘nice’ #WriteSky
Why does finishing a first draft have me equal parts mourning and celebrating? #WriteSky
Finished my 24th book! This one has a special place in my heart as it’s the first one I started after having my son. I’ve written a few since, but this one kept having to wait. This one kept me sane when things were hardest, and even though it’s a prequel no one asked for, it means everything ❤️
Here we go. The only scene in my villain prequel featuring the series protagonist! Let’s go! 😎 #WriteSky
Agented authors, how many versions of your query letter did you go through before the one that landed you ‘the call’? #BlueSky
Querying is not for the faint hearted 😮💨 #WriteSky
I will finish my WIP this week! You can quote me on that #WriteSky
