Where do fellow writers share their works in progress to get (copyright safe) constructive feedback? Writers groups aren't working for me, mainly due to low word limits, but also the need to give feedback to everyone else, I don't feel qualified to do that. #writer #creativewriting #novel #help
This is the photograph I took years ago, that has inspired my novel-writing adventure to finally begin. I've written 11 (ish) chapters so far but have no idea if any of it is good. Just writing it, even if it's terrible, is therapeutic! #creativewriting #novel #writing #photo #wip
Take off a fluffy Grinch hoodie for *3 seconds* and it's lost forever to the clan of skinfants. #sphynx #cats #nyd
When one of the cats wants to join in with a family gurning session...
Twice now, since I moved house, I have got on a bus and gone to my local library only to chicken out and not go in. I feel like a total berk. Social anxiety and years of isolation/conditioning has me too scared to go in and look at books! (I'm still borrowing online though) 😂🤣😭
I'm sitting here, sleep deprived, ill and snot filled and coughing so much the three sphynx cats inside my shirt think my boobs are a bouncy castle, and I can't think of a single joke that doesn't have the word c*nt in it. My daughter is in the room! 2 of 2
Oh fudge. @mattrife11.bsky.social just followed me back. I know it's just a fan engagement thing, but I suddenly feel overwhelming pressure to be funny. I'm almost never *intentionally* funny! 1 of 2
Attended my first ever parents evening as a parent today. Pleased to say it went well. Bob is an exceptional little lady and seems to be settling into school life amazingly. She's so proud of herself too!
And the scalp? Edgar likes to ride on a head. Donuts likes to jump on backs and rub against heads. Even the plumber, who we had not told we had cats, let alone naked ones. He was in a cupboard when she got him, she licked his bald head for ages before he was brave enough to call for assistance!
Thank you. X
Thank you! It probably doesn't help that I'm trying to work digitally. I'm an analogue girl. Give me a fountain pen and some good paper and I will write all day. Not necessarily anything good, but I will write! 🤣
Oh, yes please!
Unfortunately for me, the topic is allowed to be anything of my own desire. Which is part of my problem. Choice is not my friend. 🤣😂😭 Last month I submitted part of a novel I've been putting together for a few years, but I don't want to submit more of that as I'm not happy with its direction yet.
I really need a 2000 word submission for my creative writing critique group. So far I've written... this post. Writers block really stinks. My brain won't brain today. #writer #writing #fiction #help #block #procrastination #coffeebreak
Feeling a little misled. I added fifty photos to my first post here because "it" told me I could. It's only showing four. They aren't even the best four. Just four random ones. Urgh. Balls.
Yeah, my three are one year old siblings. Shades, A bi colour girl who belongs to my daughter but love me best, Donuts, a chocolate point girl who belongs to my husband but loves me best and Edgar, a bi colour boy who's mine but loves the dog best. 🤷🤣🤔
My three would wave hello but they are too busy hiding up my jumper. 🤣
I'm really supposed to be tying my novel together today. I can't. My main ideas are fighting in my head and I'm just not entirely sure where they go yet. Any one else in this boat with me? #writersblock #novel #fiction
