If I see one more 'author' claim that 'everyone uses gen AI for covers, so I might as well' I am going to scream.

NO THEY AREN'T! SAYING IT DOESN'T MAKE IT SO! I AM BEGGING YOU TO ACTUALLY LISTEN TO THE COMMUNITY THAT HATES GEN AI! DO YOU EVEN WANT A CAREER?!

GEN AI IS THEFT 😭

Me, coming back to edit draft 2 after letting it sit for a few weeks: which idiot wrote this?

It's me, I'm the idiot that wrote this

how it feels writing a large cast of characters

90% of writing happens away from the keyboard. In the shower. On a walk. In the car. Wherever you & your thoughts are alone together, that's when writing happens.

If you find yourself stuck, staring at a blinking cursor, unable to find the words, don't be afraid to step away & find somewhere quiet.

"what kind of story are you writing?"

me:
a scene from the show "it's always sunny in philadelphia" Cricket is standing in a dingy alleyway with frank and someone else, cooking drugs on a trash can, while cricket turns with a smirk and says "the angst filled kind"

the risks of listening to music as a writer
a meme first panel is someone with a plain, mostly emotionless face, labelled "nice. this is a cool song." next panel, the same person blinks, and is labelled [envisions an elaborate fictional scene to the song playing] next panel is the same person opening his eyes, surprised, and is saying "I guess I'm writing a whole new story now"

The fantasy genre is so great. I love it. It has endless possibilities like dragons, sky islands, flying whales, and affordable living

I can't explain it, but this image is the vibe I aspire to attain in my life
a scene from the animated movie 101 dalmations. There are vibrant green trees and grass, reflecting onto a calm river that has a greenish hue to it as well, and a quaint bridge arching over that someone is walking his dog on while someone else is painting the scene by the river next to her dog

A writer's greatest fear isn't rejection. It's accidentally using the same word within two paragraphs of each other

Spent some quality time doing pen & ink this evening. I got myself a Pilot Parallel Pen today, and enjoyed scratching out this scene with it.

Boardwalk in Hackensack River County Park, Hackensack, NJ. 10x8.

This is a black and white ink drawing depicting a wooden boardwalk winding through a natural landscape. The boardwalk, made of wooden planks, curves gently into the distance, drawing the viewer’s eye deeper into the scene. A railing on the left side provides a structural element that contrasts with the organic forms of the surrounding trees and foliage. The artist uses bold black areas, fine cross-hatching, and expressive line work to create depth and texture. The dense trees and vegetation frame the composition, with intricate patterns of branches and leaves adding richness. Light and shadow are skillfully suggested through varying line weights and negative space, enhancing the sense of atmosphere. The overall effect is a dynamic and immersive landscape that captures the beauty of nature and the inviting quality of the boardwalk. (Alt-text auto-generated.)

a meme top panel of the image is Obi-Wan Kenobi looking confident while he says "I'm a writer. Writing is my specialty." the bottom panel is Obi-Wan sitting in front of a computer with a blank word document, while he stares in great distress, and is labelled "when it's finally time to write"

For the past 4 months I've been stuck revising and rewriting, which means that writing by hand is just not really a thing that happens. But man do I miss the days where I would use a different pen each time, a rainbow on every page...

Okay, 3 new TWSBIs acquired since the last time I shared my TWSBI Rainbow. I have 1 more definitely coming from Germany (the red one hopefully). Only a few left to find before I can call it good. I’ll need to work out storage at some point too. #FountainPen
