Dinosaurs have stormed the apple orchard!! 🍎✨🦖✨ Discovering these fossils while sipping cider seems like a sign that I really should write that dinosaur fantasy book… 👀 #writingcommunity #booksky #fantasy #dinosaurs

I’m nearing the last fourth of my first draft but my mind just wants to edit the beginning—cut characters, change locations, rename places. I can’t wait to edit, but I also dread it. 😅 (Cameo by the red squirrel who destroyed my hammock at the end.) #writing #booksky #writingcommunity

Slow and steady wins the race 🐢✨ An endangered Michigan native, the Eastern box turtle, visited our yard and told me that. Well, it didn’t really speak, but it definitely gave me a look that said, “You don’t have to write 1,000 words everyday.” #writing #writingcommunity #booksky

If I didn't have to sleep in order to function, I'd be spending all my time on Fields of Mistria, Re:Story, and Sovereign Tower as well as Genshin Impact this month. Who wants to turn me into a vampire? 😅

Is it “disk” or is it “disc?” 💿 With talk of the industry fading out physical copies, we’ve seen posts and articles about both the death of “disks” and nostalgia about sharing “discs.” #playstation #gaming #videogames Find out below 👇
