The ore remained hidden for 1,000 lifetimes, a secret of a land that remained separate from those who would take it blindly; but the moment the trespasser saw the #gold sparkle in the night, the defenders of the land knew what was coming: war. #vss365 gold #SciFanSat

A moment of #charity Cannot erase Years of greed But it can be The beginning To believing in The value Of helping others To reach the Beautiful futures They deserve #vss365 charity #poetry

The mountains reign beyond the final #tree, where the air is too thin for wildlife but the stones remain for eternity. It is at this peak where he found shelter for just a day, just enough time to reset the turning of the world. #vss365 tree #SciFanSat

This is the first page of the draft of 'RUN' (2020) that sparked a bidding war for my co-writer Aneesh Chaganty and I. Goal was to write something that IMMEDIATELY would grab readers. We just dropped the full draft here: reddit.com/r/Screenwritin… #ScreenwritingTwitter

For your current or future publication, do you expect to have more sales via online communication or in-person events? 🤔📖 #WritingCommmunity #AuthorsOfTwitter #bookworms

The spectators, breathless with anticipation, fear for a #dud that never happens. The pirouette is spotless, the grace of the ballerina conquering the show… By the end of the last dance, the audience is roaring for more. 🩰🎶🦢 #vss365 #amwriting #WritingCommunity

#poem She found some faery dust mixed it in with her multitude of paintbrushes life jumped off from her painted... portrait life she breathed into her... painted poem where birds fly and colors soar in tandem with summer dreaming 📸Facebook

When the storm is fierce, and the night ever-long, the dew hidden in shadow, the wind calling in alarm—I #travel through distant worlds, stories brimming with delight; for the dream is a journey, making everything alright. #vss365 #WritingCommunity #writing

What’s one of your biggest #writing hurdles at the moment? I tend to write a few scenes I’m proud of then become distant to writing again. It can be challenging to stay consistent. #amwriting #writerscommunity #writerslife

To the untrained eye The world is as it seems The light bending And never mending The space Between you and me Ever lost In the #sightseeing Of the memories That fly by Every twilight When the stars arise I remember The secret You promised… #vss365 #amwriting

#WritingCommunity Where does your #WIP belong? In an independent bookstore? Online? At a major bookstore chain? Do you write for the masses or a special, few readers? #amwriting #writerslife

Prancing through the snow Bubbling emotions flow The fox seeks an adventure But doesn’t expect the danger High up on the mountain The #troll sleeps for centuries Until the little fox Tickles the troll’s nose With his furry tail… #amwriting #writerslife #vss365

A lifetime of years Bridges the gap Between you and me We both stand here Waiting for a wish That may never come But with the #delay Something surprising Is created Beyond our Expectation #vss365 #writers #amwriting

The silence Is sharper Than a #complaint To hover In the absence Of sound And wonder If peace Will ever Be found In the shadows That thicken Beyond The boundaries Of time #vss365 #amwriting #writerslife

#WritingCommunity Have you ever let go of a character you adored? Was the character someone who didn’t fit the changes in your #WIP, or someone who had a tragic ending in your story? How did this change reshape your story? #writerslife #amwriting

#WritingCommunity Do you have a character who’s more challenging to write? Is it difficult to get those words on the page, or does it feel like what’s written doesn’t capture the complexities of this character? What makes them vital to your story? #amwriting #writerslife

After years of writing books that I ultimately tossed aside, I finally have a story full of promise. 😊

#WritingCommunity Do you always write in the same genre? How did you end up focusing on your current genre? How do you balance getting trapped in tropes versus creating something unique? #writerslife #amwriting

#WritingCommunity Do you keep the same main characters from one manuscript to the next, or do you start fresh each time? How many different stories have you written or are currently writing? What’s one thing you’d like to change about your current story? #amwriting #writerslife

Do you use 1st person, 3rd person, or a combination of the two? I like to use 1st person in spurts, but my core style has always been 3rd person. Big fan of voice-y writing.
