You know you’re a writer when you’re going to a concert for a band whose album was hugely influential in one of your books, so you wear the necklace your dad made you for your book as a little wink to no one but yourself lol

Guess who’s so close to finishing her book that she just finished outlining the last few chapters of her book?? It’s still going to need a lot of work because some subplots definitely came and went without me realizing it, but the important thing is I’M ALMOST DONE!! 🥹

For the first time possibly ever, I have a short story idea that I’m pretty psyched about? But as someone who’s devoted a lot of time to learning about the craft of long form writing…where do I go from here? Does anyone have resources, good articles, etc, to figure out how to properly write this?

🎄🌟 Okay since I’m finally out of my reading rut, I’m looking for book recs I can add to my Christmas wishlist 🌟🎄 Ideally looking for YA but doesn’t have to be, not big on fantasy but don’t mind soft fantasy. If there’s something with enemies to lovers or fake dating, even better! #writingcommunity

This isn't going to mean much to anyone except the people who have been following me for a while But I think I may actually finish drafting this book at a reasonable word count for YA contemporary, like 70-80k. As someone who has trouble shutting up before 100k, I'm sooo happy 🥰

Made a little thing for my MC for the book I'm currently working on 🩷 Marie is going through some stuff and she is NOT going to passively accept it anymore! (but if you make her feel bad for standing up for herself she probably will apologize because she's still growing)

replies felt weirdly discouraged on twitter (at least to me) but I really recommend getting back into the habit of telling artists directly when you like their stuff. not even in an engagement farming way, it just feels nice. nobody's day is going to be worse hearing that you like their work

The writing process goes like this: - Got this great idea for a novel - Start writing it. It’s great! - Well, maybe it’s not so great. It’s ok - Actually, girl, I don’t know what you’re doing - Girl - Girl …

“Hey Siri, how to escape a time loop on Halloween and avoid getting murdered by the witchy urban legend I’ve taunted for years on my supernatural skeptic Youtube channel?” #UnhingedPit #F #YA #LGBT
A Google Search screen with a background of a black electric guitar covered in stickers, the date reading 8:53 pm on Halloween, Friday October 31st. The google search read from top to bottom, “How to escape a time loop?” “How to kill a vengeful witch.” “How to overthrow the local government.” And “how to ask a date to homecoming.”

You can pick one plant from below (tell me your choice in the comments!) but VIOLET THISTLEWAITE IS NOT A VILLAIN ANYMORE (2025) has 'em all. #UnhingedPit #A #F #R #cozyfantasy
An image of 10 flowers in pots, each labeled with a different trope or element that can be found in VIOLET THISTLEWAITE IS NOT A VILLAIN ANYMORE by Emily Krempholtz. The descriptions on each of the plants include "idiots to lovers," "villain redemption arc," "found family," "sunshine & grump," "a mildly homicidal sentient houseplant," "plant magic (&plant puns)," "hot grumpy alchemist next door," "there's only one greenhouse," "what if i quit my job and opened a flower shop instead?" and "small town shenanigans." The bottom of the image says "a cozy fantasy romance about starting over, because happily ever afters aren't just for heroes. Coming fall 2025 from Berkley Publishing"

I don't do this a lot, but BLOCK THIS MAN. Block this man IMMEDIATELY. He is a long time known predator in the #WritingCommunity on Twitter. He does his stupid "boost" posts on women without consent and then gets creepy as fuck like they "owe" him, including a few minors. Block, spread the word.

Is it "maladaptive day dreaming" or are you just a natural story-teller entertaining yourself for free in a world of nightmares??? Also if you write your story down it feels really good and other people get to enjoy it

My new book is on the outside very tropey (fake dating, enemies to lovers, etc), but at its core it’s about a girl in high school who always did what she was told, and now that she’s about to graduate, she has no idea what *she* wants for her future And I hope an agent resonates with that too ❤️

"how do you jump between so many writing projects??" well...
three screenshots from the show Parks and Recreation, showing character Chris Traegar (played by Rob Lowe) riding a bike down a residential street. The original subtitles have been altered to say: "But if I keep [working on multiple WIPs] and my mind occupied at all times, I will avoid falling into a bottomless pit of despair."
