This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

Good morning, #CampRevPit! 🏕️ Today, we go on a little #ScavengerHunt! Share a line, an image, or an object in your story that hides a secret, easter egg, or a twist.

On a grassy green hill, a bright green praying mantis, a black and orange firefly, and a small green caterpillar examine the mantis’s very tall pile of story notes. The firefly is measuring the stack of paper with a tape measure while the caterpillar looks concerned. The stack of pages is waist-high to the mantis. A Campy RevPit flag flies from the top of a nearby flagpole. There is a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds in the background. The text above them reads, Day 11 ScavngrHunt

From Twilight, the movie series, a four screen snip of the movie dialogue between Jacob and Bella. Screen one, upper left: Jacob says, "Because it was her." Screen two, upper right: Jacob says, "From the beginning. It was Nessie who wanted me there." Screen three, bottom left: Bella says, "Nessie?" Screen four, bottom right: Bella looks very angry and is clenching her teeth and narrowing her eyebrows. She says, "You nicknamed my daughter after the loch ness monster!?"
