Just write that story you want to write. If it’s not right, then write it again. And again. Nothing fails—it’s all steps toward the right story, the one that wants to be told.

Nothing starts my day off better than talking to other folx who are passionate about our #WritingCommunity. 🥰


gah I don't know who else needed this but I DID! thank you <3

Up and at em with a full agenda for the day. How you be? You good? S’okay if you’re feeling froggy. There are folks who light up at the mere mention of you. Trust. And hang in there. Be great. Be one of the best to do it. You are absolutely enough.

When writing battles scenes, one thing that is frequently historically inaccurate: Everybody and their dog seems to run around with a sword, when a sword should never be your primary weapon for a simple reason: Every single pikeman would pick you off before you ever get in range.

Five steps to writing historical fiction: 1: Yay, I wrote a sentence! 2: Damn, I need to check the floor plan of a 19th-century palace 3: Shit now I need to scour travel blogs to get a good view of the fresco in the ballroom 4: Fuck what's a fresco 5: Oh god it's been 2 hours
