Hi BlueSky :) I've been absent here--working on my "Future Fragments" entry for Vocal Media. I'm posting it here to share 🤗 It's an 11-minute read :) I had a fun & emotional time imagining what a future society could look like. (Still fixing tiny errors!) #writers vocal.media/futurism/fro...

For you. Because you, my love, are deserving of beauty.

That magical moment when, after much brainstorming, you sit down to write—and the story begins to write itself. 📖🖊️✨ #writers #writersofbluesky

If a story plot could be a love interest, I would say that this morning, it finally got down on one knee and proposed to me 😅💫 We've been flirting for a while, and it just wasn't enough to start writing... until now :) #writers #writersofbluesky #authors #authorsofbluesky

To the stories that I feel forming, ✨like stars✨, on the cusp of my imagination this morning— you're safe where you are. I know you'll reveal yourselves to me .:in full:. when the time is 💫just right💫 #writer #writers #writersofbluesky #author #authors #authorsofbluesky

Feeling like I need a butterfly net and a bottle this morning to catch all these wild, fluttering ideas—to study them and make sense of them. To somehow get them down on paper. 🧚‍♀️✨ #writer #writers #writersofbluesky #author #authors #authorsofbluesky

I often get so excited about a story idea that I feel rushed to get it into the world. I've learned, though, that the key to my own writing process is ✨patience.✨ My stories find me at their own pace. They are beasts that reveal themselves to the ink of my pen at their own, ✨wild will.✨ #writer

When you're working on your story outline and then a plot you like even more randomly presents itself to you 😍 Got me feeling a little unloyal, not gonna lie... #writers #authors #creativewriting

I always feel sad once I've finished a piece I've been working on—like I've lost a friend. The empty ache affects me so much, I wrote a poem about it once. You know those rare words that represent emotions we don't often think of as...emotions? I need to create one for this feeling. #writers

Wishing I could sit around and write today. *sigh* These alternate universes must wait until the day's work is done, I suppose. 💫 Maybe the real world will inspire me with some unhinged madness I can weave into the fantasy realm...(though it'd be cooler if it worked the other way around!) #writer

"The Gemstone Plan" There is no backtracking I will make lines weave That were never there First came the diamond Stealing or the shouters To a Mexican farewell Second a coal mine Flowing with funding Setting minds and hearts In the wrong direction Hoping the watergate Would just all fade away

There's a piece of me inside every one of my characters, I'm afraid. All are slightly to moderately broken 🥹💫 #writers

The current writing challenge I'm ruminating over calls for a "Futuristic" story. If there’s one thing about me… I won't be able to keep myself from throwing fantastical elements in there. 🙃 Time-traveling dragons? Alien elves? I’ll be disqualified, surely 🤭 #canthelpit #fantasywriter

I never liked the rain until I started writing. Now, creating whimsical worlds while the sky pours on the other side of my window is something akin to Heaven—I don't even have to feel guilty about being an actual (fantastical) hermit 🙃 #writers #authors #rainyday #writingtime

Awake Eyes closed, I listen... Such faintness, a breath, a shiver... Whispering through the nightfall, the silent sound of a broken heart Blue chiffon of twilight The sky wore Roses clinging to her form, As the #horizon blurred, My eyes blurred, tears fall #vss365

A gentle reminder for all writers. Your book isn’t supposed to be liked by everyone. It’s supposed to be loved by some. The worst thing that capitalism has done to writers is make them think their book needs to have the same wide appeal as McDonald. #authors #writers #fictionwriter #novel #poetry

A story plot visited me in a dream tonight, & now I’m awake. Suddenly, my life seems like Beauty & the Beast—at least, the part where Belle meets living appliances: my nightstand notepad’s alive, scribbling my ideas down, & my Macbook is calling my name. It’s 2:30 am. Do I make coffee? 🧐 #writers

Like most fantasy writers, I often wish I held magical powers, much like those of the fae & creatures in my stories. But then, I ask myself: isn't the capability of creating these wild beings & worlds for others to enjoy sorcery in itself? I think as writers, we’re superheroes 💫 #writers
