I’ve been following my motivation recently due to an INSANE and EXHAUSTING summer, and really only writing when I feel like. A break for one’s brain is super important!

I don’t feel back quite yet, but I know I’m on the way. Here’s to a relaxing and healing autumn 🍂🧡

Nothing beats having an overwhelming hyper-fixated creative vibe suddenly possessing your entire being, and knowing the next month or two of creativity is about to go absolutely wild

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 1777:
Everything you experience informs your work. In summer, write about the heat; the vegetation; the scent of the sea. In winter, write about the cold; the darkening sky; the onset of snow. Use everything you feel: grief, anxiety, joy, love, pain. It's all good.

Ooo I like this!

Rhea, a major foodie, is there for the snacks.
Cali (Rhea's older sister) is here for the rides.
Nell (Rhea's closest friend) is shopping for trinkets.
Sable (Rhea's mentor) is just trying to survive the heat!

Writing an in-depth outline sure is fun - I'm having an awesome time with this one! Just finished up to Chapter 10, and mine is already 2.5k words... definitely be a record for me!

Are you a plotter or a pantser? What's your outlining process like?

This just in - on top of all the other things you can do in #Canva, it's great for creating blueprints!

I'm creating my world's capital building right now, a place called the Oxborough Embassy. I'll definitely need to know how it's laid out, since my cast will be there OFTEN!

Doing some #character work today and created a moodboard for the MC of my book, UNDER SHATTERED SKIES.

This is Rhea! Spending some time with her character development and arcs today and already having a blast!

Spending some time writing before I hop back into my beloved Minecraft world ✍️🤍⛏️

Last night's idea involved a magic tower, a stand-up comic, and something about a ghost road? #writingcommunity

Write down ideas whenever they come to you!

It’s Saturday 📺

Post a cartoon TV series you love!

Abby Sundeen ✍️📚🔮🐉 @sunnydwrites.bsky.social · Aug 30

Today is a mix between writing and Minecraft - whatever keeps me on the couch while I’m feeling like this!

#WritingCommunity any video games you all like to play?

Abby Sundeen ✍️📚🔮🐉 @sunnydwrites.bsky.social · Aug 30

Thanks! I’ll be quarantining for a bit so the next few days will look veeery slow

Abby Sundeen ✍️📚🔮🐉 @sunnydwrites.bsky.social · Aug 29

And it looks like I’m out for the next few days… COVID found its way to me. Time to rest and recover, and today … mostly sleep.

Hope you guys are having a better day than me!

Abby Sundeen ✍️📚🔮🐉 @sunnydwrites.bsky.social · Aug 28

Tiring day today! Hopefully some writing can help recharge me - I’ve been on pause for the last week for this vacation! Time to come back!

I really like my main character, Rhea. But the older sister in me comes out through Rhea’s older sister, Calliope (Calli) - and so she has absolutely claimed my “favorite” spot.

Take what you need:
- write the story you'd like to read
- write the story that helps you sleep
- write the story that keeps you up
- write the story they ordered you not to tell
- write the story you can never forget
