Fake dating profiles for the two main characters in a Rom Com.

Hers reads "Gabby Karlinsey. 34, but don’t remind me.
I love coffee, a great mug, audiobooks, & pretending I know how to cook. Likes: Creativity, long talks into the night, rule followers. Dislikes: Flannel, facial hair, anyone who owns anything Carhartt."

His reads "Nick Elliott. 38. I like cars, Carhartt anything, & having a beer with friends. Likes: Creativity, free spirits, someone who’s not afraid to break the rules. Dislikes: Anyone who describes themselves as “metro”"

I'm in a thriller/suspense mood. Hit me with your best recommendations.

Every writer secretly wants to be asked, “How’s your book going?” just so they can dramatically sigh and say, "Don't ask." Nonwriters don't understand that the muse doesn’t show up until after you’ve been sitting for an hour pretending to work.

GhostPit @ghostpit.bsky.social · Aug 19

#GhostPit will be happening October 30, 2025!

There is a black background with big circle with a smaller circle inside of it.

In the big circle at the top is #GhostPit 2 Ghosts to each side of that between that and the bottom words that read The Halloween Pitch Event.

In the smaller circle there are greeb and orange/gold stars. In front of them in a cute sheet ghost and in front of him is a pencil and an open green book with yellow pages.

It's an event announced the day before it happens where writers can pitch their manuscripts to lit agents and editors. For this one, you make pitches that are anything but ordinary or customary. So "unhinged."

Both those are awesome. The goatee sounds so freaking cute. He sounds like he was pretty special.

I am so sorry for your loss. Any good memories of Gandalf you'd like to share?

What are your writing sins, #WritingCommunity?

Without spell check, I spell like a kindergartener who isn't paying attention.

This is what happens when I listen to a true crime podcast while making an unhinged pitch with Canva.

Does it make any sense? No. Should it? Also no.

Four pictures of a teenage girl dressed in black in different poses. In the top right are the words "Death is a teenager."

At the bottom are the words "When an accident
turns Chess into the
Midwest’s newest reaper,
she must learn to control
her powers or risk losing the veil
between the living and the dead,
along with the soul of the only
person she’s ever loved."

I found out today. I happened to be distracting myself with social media (which no writer EVER does, of course) and saw their post announcing it.
