I’m a wee bit snowed in today on Camino Island so it’s a great day to spend at my desk #writing. I’m gonna do one more read through of my manuscript. I’ve written my #queryletter, My synopsis is almost done and by next week I should be sending my #novel out to agents. Wish me well.🤪🥰

Why #Authors use pen names, pseudonyms: protecting their privacy, exploring different genres w/out confusing their audience, #writing about sensitive topics without personal repercussions, creating a more marketable name, or they don't like their real name for literary purposes. #writerslife

Community health centers are now starting to shut down across the country because of Trump’s executive orders.

These centers serve 1-in-5 rural patients in America.

Great #writingtips from #kurtvonnegut

After Dinner Conversation® @afterdinnerconversation.com · Feb 1

Kurt Vonnegut wrote 100+ short stories.

In 1999, he revealed the secret to writing a good one.

Here are his 8 rules:

1. Don't waste your reader's time.
2. Give the reader a character to root for.
3. Every character should want something. Even if it's only a glass of water.
