Writing might be the best tool I've found to manage my #ADHD. It becomes an anchor for my executive (dis)function, helps me battle perseveration, and gives me some control over hyper-focus. Without a writing project, my life slowly devolves into chaos. #WritingCommunity

Why querying sucks: It's a bunch of marketers who don't write, asking a bunch of writers who don't market, to market themselves to marketers, so they can keep writing. Makes no dag'gon sense. #WritingCommunity #amquerying

As a person who speaks okay-ish French (B1 proficiency), I just realized "RSVP" stands for "répondez s'il vous plaît", which literally means "answer, please." Sounds so passive-aggressive 😂

The most terrifying thing to write is "chapter 1" #WritingCommunity #booktwt

Android 13 must've had #ADHD people in mind because it reminds me to reply to texts if I haven't within 24 hours. This is doing more for my personal relationship development than hundreds of hours of counseling ever could.

When someone asks me how querying is going.

I really hate the querying process, but I promised my wife I'd send out 75 queries before I started the self-pub process. I passed number 25 last night, and I'm very thankful I only have 50 of these blasted things to go. #WritingCommunity #amquerying

Haven't heard anything from agents in weeks, then suddenly I get three replies in one day! They were all rejections, but hey, a rejection is still a reply 🤷 #WritingCommunity #AuthorsOfTwitter

Finally picked up The Rage of Dragons and holy crap I cannot tell you how much I'm not into the 3-chapter long prologue. Really killed my interest in the story when I finally saw "chapter 1" on page 30 or whatever. #WritingCommunity #BookTwitter

I'm just gonna come out and say it: I hate prologues. I freakin' hate 'em. Can we start putting "prologue warnings" on book covers? #WritingCommunity #BookTwitter

I'd say my best quality is the intensity to which I can cringe at something I wrote less than 47 minutes ago. #WritingCommunity #BookTwitter

Finally gonna give Rings of Power a shot... Wish me luck.

I made it through two episodes, and wow, that was..... underwhelming. #RingsofPower #WritingCommunity #BookTwitter

I know.

Hard magic systems are more interesting in books. Soft magic systems are more interesting in film and TV. Come at me. #writersoftwitter #WritingCommunity

Took me 30-something thousand words, but I'm finally back in the "flow state" of writing on my new WIP.... and dag'gon does it feel good. #WritingCommmunity
