Gym. Cats. Marriage. Caffeine. Accidentally wrote an entire dark fantasy novel. Wife's first note: use more words. 📚☕❄️
25k words into my first revision pass. Let’s go! Querying in 2026 doesn’t seem like such a far off goal afterall. I should probably start working on a real profile picture. #WritingCommunity
Post-work run… done. Next comes the next chapter revisions. The one where the MC remembers that he has feelings. Unlike my legs, currently.
Question for the writers and agents out there: When do you pull in beta readers? I’m ~25% through a first pass on my manuscript. Thinking of finishing this pass, then sending it out before line edits… but I’m open to being smarter than I am right now. Thank you for being here! #WritingCommunity
Did I vanish during the holiday rush and disappoint my loyal dozen or so followers? Yes. Did I also revise 20k words and make my opening chapters 100x better? Also yes. Balance. Manic balance. #WritingCommunity
The struggle of thinking of your WIP all day and not wanting to do anything else, so you don’t do anything else, then you’re late getting home to work on your WIP.
The pace of my book, you ask? Oh, it starts like annoying tinnitus… then builds and builds until it’s a full-on scream by the end. Anyway. Happy writing, everyone. Back to revisions for me. #WritingCommunity
Just made my first self-revision pass of my opening chapters. They are sooooooooooo much better. Who thought this revision thing was so effective? Anyone else chest deep in the revision grind? #WritingCommunity #amwriting #Fantasy
Me: First draft is done. Time to revise the first two chapters. Also me: Scraps both and starts from scratch. Send help. #AmWriting #WritingCommunity
Just hit 10 followers. That’s right. Double digits. Time to bend the algorithm to my will. Is that the scent of world domination in the air? For future followers: I’m out of fingers. You’ll have to settle for toes. #WritingCommunity
That feeling when you write “The End” on your first draft at 11:20PM and everyone else is asleep so you post on social media so you can get it out of your system with a good old run-on sentence. That’s all, time for bed now. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting

![Three graphics of amber jars with white labels sit on a brown wooden shelf. “Craft Your Poison” marks the front of the shelf in black cursive.
First jar: A yellow flower with green stems sits inside the jar. “Ingredient,” “Enemies to Lovers,” and “‘If you’re going to threaten to poison me, you should understand what you’re trying to poison me with’” mark the label.
Second jar: Dark indigo berries with lime green leaves fill the jar. “Ingredient,” “Involuntary visions of the future,” and “Blue, unseeing eyes bore into me. Their emptiness seizes my consciousness, twisting it awake. When I blink, the woman’s eyes close, and she disappears into the darkness” marks the label.
Third jar: A green leaf sits inside the jar. “Ingredient,” “Lessons in poison,” and “]I thought you couldn’t digest information from just reading.’ His chin dips, waiting to see if I uphold the lie I forgot about. I shrug. ‘It had drawings’” marks the label.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:26erca6kbdaobevzjhsaa3mt/bafkreifpkptfhh7tw24kqidlihba2mb5rczgygycvvk2ate2nbx36qkzgm)
