I’m a writer who writes writings with writing utensils. Also secretly a fan of repetitive bio’s

My first chapter is now 1,800 words, and I’m pretty excited that it’s more or less full length. I’ve written a lot over the last few years but as a high school freshman this is actually my first full size book chapter. I hope to write several dozen more, and then have a story

Hooks. Lots of writers think that you only have one hook per novel. This isn't true. Each chapter should have a hook so that you are constantly affirming to the reader their desire to read on. Think of a chapter as if it were a complete story. #writingcommunity

Readers 'skim' what they think is not important. What is important to the writer may not be important to the reader. This is a hard lesson. Sections you labor over may be skimmed by readers. Identify your own skimming habits and highlight these in a book to review later.

#WritingCommunity is blackmail cliche, or does it have potential as a subplot? I want to do it and hopefully in a unique way but I don’t know if it’s taboo or not to be honest

Outlining is fun, but it takes a long time and it feels less productive than writing more for the actual draft even though it isn’t. Speaking of which I should probably stop tweeting and finish chapter 6

I wrote over a thousand words today, which I realize isn’t all that much but it’s better than I’ve done in quite a while. Writings been a little slower lately but I’m glad to start making some progress again!

Sometimes I wish we could have a little eye for an eye action with these racist cops. Like you shot a man 7 times in the back? Turn around

I Wrote a poem today for the first time in a month. What breakthroughs or writing-block-break-throughs have you had recently #WritingCommunity

If anyone wants an inspiring movie to watch, I wholeheartedly recommend “About Time” on Netflix. It’s the only romantic comedy I’ve wanted to watch more than once and one of few I’ve actually enjoyed.What about you, #WritingCommunity what are your favorite hopeful flicks?
