Yesterday, I ran my first 5K at Boulderthon in Boulder, Colorado. It’s a life goal I’ve been working towards for years since running didn’t come naturally to me. I feel inspired to keep going and train for a 10K! 💪🥹 #Colorado #5K #lifegoal

I just caught myself staring at quotation marks and thinking they look weird. It might be time to stop revisions for the night. 🫠 #amrevising #writerslife #booksky #writersofbluesky

LOVE BETWEEN THE LECTURES by my dear friend, Christie Curry, arrived today! We’ve been on our pub journeys together for years. It’s so so special to hold her book in my hands. Cancel my plans! I’ll be reading. 💗💗 #booktwt #writingcommunity #romancelovers

I've tried to warn my family. When I'm working on a #book blurb, try to stay clear of me for at least 48 hours. #writerslife #writersofbluesky #booksky

Today, I’m reading through a section I finished revising in my wip with some tea and sweet treats. 😋 #amrevising #booksky #writersofbluesky

In MG, word count dictates I can only give a moment between characters so much space on the page. But in YA, it feels like I need to give them more. How do you know if it's too much or not enough? #writersofbluesky #booksky #amrevising

I just realized that I saw this incredible rainbow the other day and 🌈s are significant in my MG book #onsub. So I’m choosing to believe with every fiber of my being that good news is coming soon. 🥹🌈✨ #writersofbluesky

Started revisions today and questioned the whole story and my writing and my purpose in life. So, I closed the laptop and walked away. For now. #booksky #writersofbluesky #writerslife #amrevising

I had two events tomorrow, the first of #September, that are now no longer happening. I'm telling myself the universe is simply opening my schedule for good things, like tackling more revisions, and (hopefully🤞) good news to fill those vacancies. ✨🙏🙏🙏✨ #booksky #amrevising #writersofbluesky

Sometimes all I want to do is work on my books and sometimes I’m so grateful for all of the things that pull me away from them because I think it makes me more complete and sane. #booksky #writersofbluesky

I received mostly positive feedback from a test reader for the first four chapters of my wip. Though I need to work on some tech descriptions I'd foolishly hoped would suffice. Readers will call you out. We have to show up with our A game every time. #booksky #amrevising #writersofbluesky

Feeling all the feels with my pub journey the last few days. No updates to share, and only crickets to talk to. But they only play the same old tune. *sigh* #writerslife #onsub #writersofbluesky #booksky

I'm at the point in revisions where my word count keeps going up, and I can't stop it. #amrevising #writersofbluesky #booksky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

Starting new revisions is always like this. Unless I'm on a time crunch. It feels like I'm standing on the edge of a cliff and need to close my eyes and jump so I can finally start tearing apart the first chapter. #writingcommunity #writesofbluesky #amrevising

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

One of the most inspiring moments as a #writer is reviewing the hodgepodge of notes you made for a book prior to drafting and marveling at how you created a story from those. #booksky #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 12/08/2026

I'm feeling guilty that I haven't started revisions on my YA wip yet. How do we as #writers shake off that guilt and actually take a break?? #writersofbluesky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 11/08/2026

I have a problem. I can’t possibly pre-order all of the books I want to pre-order. And that is a tough truth some days. #booklover #booksky

I've never done a live critique at a conference. I sweated through virtual pitches and virtual critiques, but this will be my first time doing one in-person. Yesterday, I sent my materials in. I won't let myself look at them again...just in case I see an error. 🫠 #writersofbluesky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Days like today I feel inspired to keep #writing. I want to create more stories with relatable, honest, and heartfelt characters. I want to continue growing as a #writer. Now, let's hope I feel like this tomorrow when I start revising my new wip. #writerslife #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky

Finished this next round of revisions. Goal met 2 days late, but who’s counting?? 😂 Time to celebrate!

Those healing conversations near the end of the book between your MC and their lover/friend/family member are TOUGH. I think I've reworked this dialogue like a thousand times at this point. #writerslife #writersofbluesky #amrevising

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

When a book calls to me, it’s hard to resist picking it up. My YA wip has been whispering in my ear that I need to start revising it. But the MG I’ve been working on needs 3-5 more days of revision. #Writers really are the masters of patience!! #writerslife #writersofbluesky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

I haven't posted in three days because I was working on my MG synopsis, and writing a synopsis is sort of like falling into a dark hole and trying to climb out. That's my excuse anways. 😂 #writerslife #writersofbluesky #amrevising

Taking a moment to feel giddy over being halfway done with 2nd revisions. And I think this gif is hilarious. #writersofbluesky #writerslife

My kids describe playing with the popular toy, NeeDoh, as so satisfying. But I'd argue that nailing a line you've been struggling with for days in your manuscript is way better. 😅 #writersofbluesky #amrevising

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

I've made good progress on my MG wip but today, I hit one of those scenes where I need to dig into my MC's emotions more and provide alternate solutions as the characters brainstorm. Which means my progress has slowed drastically. #writersofbluesky #amrevising

I believe some story ideas won’t let you write them because they know you’re not ready. There’s a horror premise I’ve been playing around with for years, but I only just realized it should be YA instead of MG. And with just that, the story came together. #writersofbluesky

One of the toughest parts of revisions for me is strengthening my MC’s emotional thread throughout the book and keeping it consistent. These are the types of sentences I end up staring at for hours. #writersofbluesky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

I saw this quote by Sylvia Plath today. This is how I feel about both of my wips. They are pushing me out of my comfort zones and letting my creativity flourish! #writersofbluesky

Christine Letizia @letiziawrites.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

There were years when friends & family asked what the first #book I wrote was about, and I would freeze up. Looking back, I didn't have a strong grasp of the premise and the pitch. Now, I have a working pitch from the beginning. This is how I've grown as a #writer. 🥹 #writersofbluesky

Digging into revisions yesterday didn’t go as planned. I got stuck in a research hole that I haven’t dug myself out of. And I’m still on page one. 🤦🏻‍♀️ #writingcommunity #writersofbluesky
