Editing my draft right now and thinking, “If the author mentions the color of this man’s eyes one more time, I’m going to rage quit.” Except, I’m the author. I’m going to make myself rage quit. #Funny #Writing #CreativeWriting #WritingCommunity #EditingCommunity #Fiction #WriteSky #WritingHumor
Ah yes, equality in literature—finally, the male gaze meets poetic justice. ✍️🙃
Some of you are about to realize how weird your prose actually sounds.

If AI tells you your writing is perfect, maybe back away slowly. 🤖✍️ Kristen Lamb makes the case that being adored by algorithms might not be the flex we think it is. Slightly hilarious. Slightly terrifying. buff.ly/KdrL5yu #amwriting #AI #WritingHumor #WritersLife

POV: your mom proudly tells everyone you’re an author… and you’ve written exactly 100 words. 😌📚
Still counts, right? Every book starts somewhere.

Darwinian argument for the passive: The passive would not have survived this long if it were not fit for something.

Theological argument for the passive: God would not have invented the passive if there weren't a good reason for it.

The creative process is nothing if not chaotic. 💚
At least The Ballad of the Emerald Bard is finished… mostly. 😉

Update:
Posted WWHD? yesterday.
Still no Pulitzer.
Still no guidance from the ghost of Hemingway.
Considering switching liquors again.
Science takes time.

Every writer’s inner monologue when a rejection hits:
“Dear Sir… this rejection letter needs work.”
Petty? Maybe.
Accurate? Absolutely.

This year I learned that auto-save is not my friend. It’s more like that unreliable cousin who says they’ll help you move, then ghosts you on moving day. RIP to the 700 words I’ll never see again.

Types of Authors 😂✍️ Nonfiction writers, we’ve ALL been the caffeinated chaos, the procrastinator, the perfectionist, the blocked creator, or the “subtle flex” author. Which one are you today?👇

Write! Your characters' lives depend on it.
(Seriously. They’re pacing the plotline and whispering about mutiny.)

I hate that my most poetic lines are always about the stupidest things.
“I am an oasis of love in this desert, and yet there is not a soul whose thirst needs slaked!”

Being a writer is arguing with your character about the plot till midnight… and then letting them do whatever they want anyway.
