I'm in a 6 month long class for the day job, and one of the courses was on writing. So naturally I took it. They offered a different way of outlining than all the other methods I've been taught, so I decided to give it a try. We'll see if I follow the plan once it's done.

I collected a new hobby this past week. I'm in the process of making candles for my business.

I'm doing a complete rewrite of book 2. It's easier to fix the plot holes this way instead of trying to edit what I had.

Thank you! ☺️
I buy the charms and put them all together for my keychains. I took the photos myself for my greeting cards and bookmarks, but I had a third party print the bookmarks for me.

My cat just killed and ate a daddy long legs. I'm not sure which is worse, seeing the harvestmen, or watching her eat it. 🤢

I had this really wicked idea for book 2, that would set up another character perfectly for her book, but I'm not sure if the characters in this book would go for it.

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END

When their detective friend is murdered during their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly written campaign.

This is a horror movie-style poster for "DAD BODIES" with the tagline "THE GAME JUST TOOK A DAD TURN." The design features a large D20 die (showing numbers 19, 1, 7 and 13) at the center top, surrounded by blood splatter effects against a dark background with a gothic manor silhouette.Six men are arranged around the bottom portion, each showing expressions of terror or shock with hands raised defensively. They're labeled with names: Vincent, Sam, Troy, Hank, Marv, and Dave. The poster includes several review quotes in decorative frames: "I had to stop eating" and "OMG" and "EW! Haha!!" all attributed to beta readers.The poster credits "Written and Directed by B. van Bodegom" at the top and includes a "BIG 5 INTEREST" badge. At the bottom is a movie rating-style disclaimer with "RESTRICTED" rating and warnings about strong language, violence, and adult content.

You could try looking in Sturgeon Bay. We usually stay at Beach Harbour Resort, and their rates aren't too bad.

I was trying to work on my novel tonight, but this cutie wanted to lie on my lap instead.

So, what are we looking at here? 1200 soldiers deployed to Washington DC?

That should be more than enough to secure the White House, take the criminal in the Oval Office into custody, and liberate the Epstein files.

It was surprisingly easy to get it to two books, once I fleshed out book 1 some. :) I'm mainly focusing on Wendy and Captain Hook as a specific pair, but I might have room for a sup-plot of a different pair in this second book. I haven't quite decided on that yet.

It's a romance novel based on the characters of Peter Pan. Initially, it was going to be one book, but I had too many words for that, so I had to break it into two.

I hit 25k words in book two! Only about 60k more to go before I can be done with this draft. #amwriting #5amwritersclub
