I made a #1stLinePit moodboard for my WIP 👀 Who else is participating?

Othello would be damned if it was a ghost that did him in. A shade, a flesh construct, hell, even a vampire would be respectable. But a ghost, a banshee of all things? It was downright embarrassing. #1stLinePit #A #F #H #Q

Cinnamon tea and writing. Currently working on temple designs for an alien culture. #writing #fantasy

Today's tea: green with lemon peel and marigold. Today's task: submitting short stories to speculative fiction journals. #WritingFiction

Excited about my local library's annual Fall book sale. I know I already have "too many books" but let's find some more! #books

Not sure if I can do #QuestPit since I'll be traveling tomorrow but I hope so!

Sending encouragement to my fellow speculative writers. If you create dystopias as cautionary tales or create worlds better than the one we're in, I see you. If you care about truth, love, hope, diversity, let's be friends. #WritingCommunity

Happy to announce that I won second place in a poetry contest. Yay! sfpoetry.com/contests/24con…

Jasmine citrus tea and writing. Inventing elaborate curses in alien languages. #writing #tea

Masala chai and plotting. Sketching maps to keep relative locations in an invented community consistent. They're not very pretty ones but they will do for practical purposes. #writingfantasy #TeaTime

Blueberry tea and more plotting. What really happened to MC's parents? She doesn't know. (I don't know yet either, figuring it out). #amwriting #TeaTime

Lemon ginger tea, warming back up after playing in the snow. Then more writing. #teatime #writing
