For those that use a pen name for your writing, what's you're individual reason for that choice? #author

My kids decided they wanted me to read a chapter of MY book to them every night before bedtime. Seeing their faces fill with wonder hearing my words tonight is more validation than I will ever need in my life. #writer #author #writingcommunity #lostintheshadows

Dear @bsky.app 300 characters is not enough for me to express what's in my heart. Please give me a little more room for creativity. There are 2000 characters allowed for the alt text for gifs...

My fave skill building tool is what I call sketching- writing a moment in time to practice the craft & to pull that memory later and plug into a finished piece (like an artist sketching). We went to the Atl Airport (i did a bit of people watching). & on a hike I got some nature descriptions #writer

Waterfall from the right of frame to middle ending in a pool and forming ripples. The water is moving fast, creating white lines down the dark mountain face, but there are few bubbles at the bottom.

Very blurry image from the passenger seat of a car at 5 am. But the sky is beautiful! It's pink at the horizon, then mering into a bright white before blending into a cool almost periwinkle blue.

I saw a squirrel fattening up for winter. This morning, we picked up my husband's best friend from the airport and then took him to one of our favorite waterfalls. I went to the bottom of the falls this time and found the water full of river snails! Sorry no pics. I was too into it 🤣 #getoutside

My daughter was diagnosed with covid and pneumonia today. Along with Dr visits and chest xrays, I still had laundry, dishes, dinner, and work to handle. I managed to find time to daydream and put another 1000 words into "It's Not That Serious" but I need a nap #prayforhealing #writerslife #writer

Every single one of your favorite artists started out as a wannabe. They all worshiped other artists; were all told it would never happen for them. They all had an inner voice telling them they weren't good enough. But they had the stones to tell all those voices to go screw and made art anyway.

Hmm..what's in my bag? 1. A journal - Full of thoughts. Some useful, some not so useful... 2. A Kindle - Filled with stories 3. Lotion - Soft and smells nice 4. Near apothecary level inventory of medicine - I'm always prepared to help. I am "momma" to many 🤷‍♀️ 5. Earplugs-I like the peace and quiet.

It was a beautiful day for a hike. My husband and I took our youngest puppy on a quick adventure. He went to explore the waterfall while I stayed at the top and enjoyed some quiet #writing 😀 #writer #WritingCommunity #dogs

November deadlines are winding down in my copywriting lane. The rainy weather makes me want to curl up and sleep, but there are words to be written in my manuscript. My character is about to get out of jail 🙃 #writing #writercommunity #writingcommunity #copywriter #allthewords

As a child, I'd pretend to be blind, guided by holding my mother's hand in the grocery store (only in the store, this wasn't an elaborate ploy)so I didn't have to look at anyone.
