I do not get all the negative reviews for Supergirl. Don't listen to the nitpickers. It's a very good movie. Kara Zor-El kicks ass in it and it's a lot of fun to watch. #Supergirl

In the rewrite phase. I cut about 9000 words from my manuscript. I not only killed my darlings, I slaughtered them and listened to their screams peter out. #AmWriting #WrittingCommunity #HorrorWriter

So, after many rejections, I've decided to pause querying and rewrite my novel, something that has surprisingly left me both depressed and excited at the same time. #AmQuerying #WritersLife #WritingCommunity

In early Irish society, stories could be strategic tools in war. The Celts believed words carried reality-altering power. A bard could attack an enemy with tales exposing disgraces, mocking them, and swaying others to defect. #WritingCommunity #WritersLife #Folklore #Ireland
