there is nothing like the love between a writer and that book idea they think about all the time and yet never never start writing

realizing I have to write my book if I wanted it to get published

Trying not to freak out about the fact that I’ve been long listed for the PMJ prize

Anyone who knows me knows how long it’s taken to get to the stage where I’m seeing the adaptation of my book everywhere. This to all writers on sub who feel like giving up: don’t. Write where the pain/passion is, believe in yourself, and good things will follow #SweetpeaTV

This looks incredible and I can’t wait to read!!!

how to finish writing a book • stay hydrated (with the blood of your enemies) • stretch often (by slaying doubters) • jot all ideas down (in a cursed tome) • remember your words have value (and shall one day summon an eldritch god to doom humanity)

What a bizarre way to use the word “disrupt”. What exactly are they disrupting by pumping out thousands of poorly edited books into a market that is already crowded? The reader’s ability to sieve out good books from the swill?

If you ever think you’re a bad writer, just remember you’re not one of the dumbasses who pays these tech bros $5000 to shit out an AI-generated book for them.

a rare example of when it's acceptable to review bomb a book with 1-star ratings

I didn’t get shortlisted but I’m feeling okay about everything! It’s just not my time, but I know that my time will come #writingrejections

the fact that suzanne collins has written not one but TWO new hunger games novels in the past five years should terrify you about the current state of the world considering she only writes when she has something to say.

#currentlyreading My thoughts so far are that I liked the first two in this series but this one and the one before are falling flat for me. I’m getting frustrated at the lack of chemistry between the characters. I love romance so this is disappointing but I’m not finished so 🤞🏻

accidentally wrote creative worrying instead of creative writing and honestly, yes
