I've been doing this for a little while and enjoying it a lot. Does anyone want to do @lainitaylor.bsky.social's Promptember prompts along with me next month? Details in the below article. medium.com/@laini.taylo...

If you’re not doing writing exercises, you probably haven’t discovered your best — and weirdest — ideas.

I try to focus this account so it's for my readers, but hey writers:

NEVER sign a contract where the publisher keeps your rights indefinitely. For short stories, there should be a point when you can sell reprints.

and NEVER sign your movie/TV/etc adaptation rights to a publisher. Those are yours.

Same. I was fine with every other type of contact lens solution, but Opti-Free made my eyes turn red and water horribly.

Leo was mad at me because of Reasons, but had to come downstairs and sit near me with his back to me so I’d know he was mad. #caturday
