Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

Currently going through the emotional rollercoaster of hating everything I have written. Praying this is that thing where hating your draft actually means it's good... #WritingCommunity #AmWriting
I took a day off to clean my garage and do some work around the house, but I've been sitting here writing almost non-stop. Apparently procrastinating and threatening myself with chores is how I motivate myself to write now. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting
Took a break from writing because my day job has been absolute torture, but now the total lack of a creative outlet is making me restless. I can't win 🫠 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting
Someone asked me if I wanted cheese on my quesadilla today and I went through all five stages of grief in about 3 seconds.
My wife and I had never seen Twilight before so we actually sat and watched it this weekend. It really answered a lot of questions I had about 2009...
*slaps wrist* Bad writer. Stop editing, and draft the next chapter. #WIP #WritingCommunity #AmWriting 🌶️📚💙
I would trade all of AI in a heartbeat just to have Clippy back in Microsoft Word.
Oh no, the power went out. Oh no, it’s freezing cold. Oh no, one of them is scared of thunderstorms. Oh no, the only heat is the fireplace. Oh no… there’s only one blanket. How on earth will they get through this together? 🫠 #Sapphic #WIP #EnemiesToLovers #WritingCommunity #AmWriting 🌶️📚💙
The Tate memes are making life a little more bearable currently.
Russian roulette but pull the trigger every time I use said as a dialogue tag #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia
I'm at that part of the writing process where I hate everything and want to erase my draft from existence and collapse into bed 🫠 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia
When writing an enemies to lovers one shot romance goes wrong. #Sapphic #WIP #EnemiesToLovers #WritingCommunity #AmWriting 🌶️📚💙
I was trying to figure out why I am having so much trouble with editing this particular chapter.. seems that I forgot I had an edible earlier 😶
My brain violently rejects any sense of routine, so I cannot fathom how to set a "reasonable expectation" for my writing goals. What do your word count goals look like, and what time period are we setting them over? (help me please god 🫠) #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia
I will take any opportunity to use the word “bulged” as a descriptor in my work, and nobody can stop me. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia #Sapphic 🌶️📚💙
They're adding me to the word count tomorrow. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #WIP 📚💙
Taking a break from drafting to work on my book cover. Leaning towards some cool typography, and seeing what I can come up with. Screw your AI covers!
Me when my wife is out for the night and I won't get in trouble #GirlDinner
Fuck it. Cherries for dinner.
I can't do slow burn romance. I much prefer an explosive, desperate hookup and the brutal psychological aftermath. #Sapphic #WIP #EnemiesToLovers #WritingCommunity #AmWriting 🌶️📚💙
I need to stop writing ideas for book 2 as a way to procrastinate drafting more of book 1 🥲 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting 📚💙
I finished all 70 chapter outlines for The Rose in the Lion's Den over the weekend, so it's finally time to go through and draft all of them properly. I am excited but exhausted, think I need a little break so I don't burn out 😵💫 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia #Sapphic 🌶️📚💙
Being a romance author is so embarrassing. Yeah here are my deepest darkest sexual fantasies and experiences, hope they make you hot too 💀🫠 #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia #Sapphic 🌶️📚💙
I needed to take a smut writing break this weekend. That's where I stop doing anything except sit and write absolute filth for hours on end. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #Romancelandia #Sapphic 🌶️📚💙
