Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 16/01/2025okay now I have to actually figure out what the fuck we’re doing here 110
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 12/01/2025The words were not coming well today (there were words but they were NOT pretty). So, we decided to pivot and outline the remaining chapters of this 0 draft so when the words are coming I don’t have to think about “what should happen next?” I’m going to be really excited when I go off outline 🥰 000
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 11/01/2025TWO of my books were nominated in categories for the Nugget’s Hidden Gems Indie Author Awards 😭 honestly, one of the best parts of the new year so far. 010

Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 17/12/2024ya’ll ever unlock an insecurity so deep even speaking of it feels like a sin bc people will probably agree with you 🙂↕️✨ 000
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 17/12/2024Editing is crazy bc I’m reading some words like “I don’t remember writing that—that’s good??” And others like “I don’t know what dumb bitch is trying to sabotage me.” 130
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 08/12/2024Sometimes when I’m in the thick of the drafting>>editing>>drafting>>editing loop I forget how much progress I make pondering. A little pondering, a little jotting down This is your reminder to let your mind wander as a part of your writing process. 030
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 04/12/2024The first few days of my writing break have been super productive. I don’t even know what I’m going to do this weekend. Send your movie/series/kdrama recs 120

Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Alright, I know this draft needs to be 50k… we have written the end certainly not at 50k. So, now I get to skim through and try to find spots to add scenes. List your favorite horror tropes/scenes here. Please and thanks 🧡 110
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 21/11/2024I got a new keyboard in one of my offices and idk what it is about the clicks (genuinely it’s a basic dell keyboard) but they’re different from my other office and my laptop. It’s the only keyboard I want to work on now. I get so many words in just to hear myself type. 240
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 21/11/2024I’ve resorted to adding random scenes to the middle of this book instead of just writing the climax (not even the whole climax. Half of it is written. I JUST have to write the second half). Send the audacity, please. 030
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Signed copies of Villages, Vestige, and Vexes have sold out again, but fear not!

Signed copies of both editions of The Stone Project and Have a Butcher’s are still available on TikTik shop @author_taylorvaughan 120
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 20/11/2024went to update my spreadsheets this morning and realized I have officially sold over 1,000 books this year.

Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Do you guys like a ramble? I filter myself big on my other platforms but I kind of just want to yap here. 040
Taylor Vaughan | horror and fantasy author @the-taylore.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I think this draft is going to clock in under 50k. I have stuff to add in dev edits but?? This might be a cute little read?? I didn’t know I could still write those. 140
