My little cat is crossing the rainbow bridge this week. To help with my grieving I’ve started writing a story that popped into my head two days ago about a black cat. I’ve always wanted to write/illustrate a picture book about her. I may publish it in the future but for now it’s just for me.

My dad found this typewriter that must have belonged to a great-aunt. He remembered our conversation about them from a few weeks ago and how I said I wanted one. It led to a fun phone call and our “see you in the funny papers/not if I see you first” goodbye. It made my day. #writingcommunity

My cat, who has not been the same since my other cat passed away last month, is now back to her usual antics. Is it even writing if she isn’t walking all over my keyboard? #writersky #writingcommunity

If I had to use emojis to describe my favorite scene/chapter to write in See How They Burn, these would be them. #writersky #booksky

My neighbor tossed bread in my fenced in yard for I’m assuming the multitude of birds who come to my feeders daily. To say I’m pissed is an understatement. Thank god my dog didn’t eat it before I noticed it. #birds #birdsky

I received a full request on my manuscript today. For some reason I thought all of my queries closed, so this is the highlight of my day and my cats twelfth birthday. Cat tax below. #writersky #catsky

Been watching the extended Lord of the Rings movies this week in honor of Tolkien Reading Day. In addition there is also an education I am getting from my LotR obsessed bestie about what’s in the book and not and the world itself and different ages. #lotr

I finished The God of the Woods today and I think it is the first full length book I’ve read in a while. #booksky

Pretty sure I’m one of the last people to read Project Hail Mary My thoughts: 1. This is the only movie tie-in cover I’ll ever like thanks to Ryan Gosling, kinda like it more than the original 2. It’s really good so far and capturing my attention 3. Why do the chapters feel so damn long? #booksky

I’ve been wanting to learn to crochet for a while now. I’m a lefty. Turns out I’ve been trying to do the right handed way. I did this today and I’m damn proud. I also got some fun book mail from Orbit today. #crochet #booksky

To avoid anxiety over the state of everything, I’ve dove headfirst into this new Seven Devils story idea. I’ve got some pretty interesting ideas happening and it is looking like it will be a horror/fantasy. #writersky #writingcommunity

Also my cat is the cutest thing right now and brings me all the joy in the world. #catsky

Spent the morning doomscrolling so now I’m returning to my world of Asclepias and giving my outline for book 2 some ~vibes~ #writersky #writingcommunity

Began writing something tonight that is loosely based on the song Seven Devils by Florence + the Machine. No clue what it is cause I’m pantsing it. #writersky

I have yet to watch the halftime show, but from what I’ve seen I can tell I’m going to love it.

Jen @jenhwriter.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

I’ve been listening to Florence & the Machine on repeat since I’m going to a show in April. Felt inspired so I did a mood sketch for Shake It Out. It is for the lyric “And I am done with my graceless heart So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart” #fatm #florenceandthemachine

I am struggling with reading anything at all this year. What are some books that could help with this slump? #booksky

Jen @jenhwriter.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

Florence + the Machine’s album Ceremonials is an amazing album and great to write to because the vibes are immaculate and go with what I am writing. #writersky #writingcommunity

Started writing a new story tonight. Is it planned or outlined? No. Do I know what it’s about yet? Also no. Is it going to be full of rage? Looking that way. #writersky #writingcommunity

I think I may have a release date for my book. 🙊 I just need to hear back from someone first. #writersky #writingcommunity

Started the new year by stepping on my cat’s tail. In my defense it was quite dark and she stopped in front of me on the dark stairs. She has since been peppered with kisses on her tiny head. #catsky #cats #newyears

I have three people reading the book I wrote. It’s only been self-edited so far which they know, but three people are reading my words. I’m unsure how to feel right now aside from terrified that anyone but me is reading my work. #writingcommunity #fantasywriter #writersky

Left my outline for the project I’m working on downstairs, but have my laptop upstairs. What do I do? Start a festive novella for said project that isn’t near complete. So far I am loving it. #writersky #writer #writingcommunity #fantasywriter

How many POVs is too many? I am struggling with this draft thinking I’m doing too much or not enough. #writingcommunity #writersky #fantasywriter

Jen @jenhwriter.bsky.social · 05/11/2025

Stopped querying and now doing massive rewrites to the manuscript. Adding a new POV and eliminating 2-3 characters. I may be crazy, but I’m looking forward to making the story darker and my FMCs more badass. #writersky

Had every intention of writing today since I took today off work for just me. Instead I have gotten Christmas shopping done for the tiny human in my life and brother in law.

Trying to figure out which of Taylor Swift’s new songs fit the characters of the book I’m going to start writing soon and right now The Fate of Ophelia is the winner. #writersky #writingcommunity #taylorswift

While I am in the querying trenches I am planning/working on a few projects. Both involve the tarot. I like to get into the heads of my characters and do actual readings as if it’s for them. This is for a character and will feature in the story I’m working on. #writersky #writingcommunity

I received one of the nicest rejections in my email this morning. It made me feel good about my writing so I’m not even that upset about it. #querying #writingcommunity #writersky
