The vibe I’m bringing to work today. iykyk

My Spotify DJ: I hope you’re ready to try something different Me: ok, yeah, I’m down. Let’s do it! My Spotify DJ: *plays the same lofi jazz/hiphop that I return to over and over again 💀

I’m waiting at the doctor’s office for an appointment and I forgot my book. This is a tragedy. Please send thoughts, prayers, and anything to entertain myself with.

As a fangirl at heart with countless crushes on fictional characters, I can only hope my writing inspires even a fraction of that love.

Attempting to write a synopsis while I’m writing my story to hopefully avoid such a struggle later. Wish me luck.

Actual footage of me writing the first big worldbuilding chapter of this book. Wish me luck 😮‍💨

We have a little underground stream on our property and it’s the cutest thing. This is why there is a little bog village in my WIP

When it’s 40 degrees and you don’t feel seasonally depressed anymore.

My daughter (9) is home sick today and only wants to watch Lord of the Rings. “I just want to be in Middle Earth today.” She gets it.

I just saw a full 16th century suit of armor on marketplace for $1,250. I mean, that’s a steal, right?

I had to go outside to see the blood moon, mostly to say “A blood moon rises once again” in my best Zelda voice.

Reading consecutive fantasy books and learning a new magic system every time: 👍🏻🤩 Trying to read anything set in the real world after reading consecutive fantasy: 😵‍💫🤷🏻‍♀️

Even the thought of naming chapters gives me anxiety. I’m fighting for my life over here trying to name different towns and a realm.

I drafted 300 words… then got an idea and wrote almost 1,000 in my outline for a future scene. Does that count as writing? What if it’s the scene where the MMC totally falls first after witnessing the FMC harness her powers for the first time? 🖤🐦‍⬛🩸🗡️👻

Me: Yes! I get to introduce the love interest in this chapter. 500 words later: Well, I wasn’t trying for fated mates, but putting these characters in the same room turned out to be more powerful than any of us expected.

Celebrated one month of working on my WIP by crossing 20k words. I am obsessed with this story.

It’s wild how I’ve been here longer than on threads, but have been seeing so much more engagement over there. Is the algorithm that much better with threads or is X dead?

Not pictured: Re-read (or listen) of Iron Flame and 200+ pages in Wind and Truth by Brandon Sanderson. Taking that one slow to cherish each day (iykyk)

Notes I’ve left for myself while drafting: - Add more yearning here - battle battle battle - Listen to The Chain by Fleetwood Mac when you edit for the vibes. - Add monster

estuve pensando en estos días, y luego de hablarlo con mi equipo, creo que haré una sola fecha en Estados Unidos.
