Just a little reminder for all #writers out there: Never let the critics, the haters & the naysayers get you down. Let them say what they will. But you... you’re going to make it❤️. #writingcommunity #amwriting
Does anyone know of a good resource for lists of demons? I found a few but want to add more diversity into my world. Do you like the idea of more YA urban fantasy with an array of "wildlife"? #amrewriting #yaurbanfantasy #draftingagain #WritingCommunity #writerlife
So I'm a writer... not a drawer. My mom says, hey you're artistic, can you do a picture for me? 2 hours and not done.
As a writer and author, don't wish to be someone else in your writing wish to be more of yourself in your writing. Find your writing voice. -Wrtr #amwriting #amediting
So yesterday I went for a drive and saw a man dressed as Waldo. Can I officially say I've found Waldo? Haha
Writer translations for non-writers: I'm writing = I'm on Twitter and eating snacks My WIP is going great = I have no idea what I'm doing Writing is so relaxing = I scream at my monitor and cry on my keyboard I'm busy tonight = I'm going to stare at a blank screen for hours
When talking with people, I frequently mispronounce words. This is because I'm a writer, not a talker, so lower your expectations.
I find it weird when I am comparing my #WIP to books already out. Essentially, I've somehow mixed Vampires and Demons with the Plagues from the Bible. #WritingCommunity have I officially gone mad? #amrewriting #amwriting
Things writers should remember: -You don't need to be perfect to be published -Every first draft is trash -Your favorite best selling author started out as a struggling writer just like you -If you keep writing, eventually you will succeed -Your story matters
"Find out the reason that commands you to write; see whether it has spread its roots into the very depth of your heart; confess to yourself you would have to die if you were forbidden to write." - Rainer Maria Rilke #WritingCommunity #writing #writers #writerslife
“Write only if you cannot live without writing. Write only what you alone can write.” ― Elie Wiesel #amwriting #writingcommunity
Rewrote this same scene 3 times, and I think I am FINALLY happy with it! We'll see with future revisions, haha. #amwritingfiction #amwriting #WritingCommunity
2/? Learn the art of structure and those of your genre prior to taking the advice. Because after you figure out who you are as a writer, you can grow. This craft no one can fully master & ever changing. There is always room to grow but there is not another you. #WritingCommunity
#unpopularopinion Don't take advice from any 1 person about being a writer when you are still in the intro to the craft. Learn who you are as a writer & use advice to grow. Too many #writers try to be someone they aren't & use others as foundations instead of being themselves 1/?

Being an author: “My characters live in my mind… I can see them and hear them much more clearly than most people…It never occurs to me that they don’t exist.” -John Creasey #amwriting ...Writing Characters.
“Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.” — Louis L’Amour #WritingCommunity #writerslift #writing #Writer #amwriting
Go to page 42 or your current WIP Copy and paste a full sentence from line 7. No context. Just share 😂 Mine is: "The guards manning the gatehouse lowered the drawbridge and raised the first portcullis as they saw the King’s banners approach"
