The fuck is wrong with people. Political violence solves nothing. As much as I disagreed with him, what happened today to #CharlieKirk is a tragedy. I can’t imagine what his family is going through right now.
Current writing process: plan → stare at blank document → plan some more → draw my map → avoid writing → write three words → delete three words → plan → repeat

These lyrics are giving me serious MC vibes … is that you, Kai Nishimira? It sounds like you! #writesky #writersofbsky #indieauthors #music #fantasy #characterinspo
Ooo you know what … I haven’t! I’ll try it and get back to you! Thanks Liz! ☺️
Chapter 1 is literally the hardest chapter to write. I hate everything about it, but I'm pushing through just to get it over with. #writesky #writing #writersofbsky #indieauthors
Thank you! Probably will have to delete this scene, but I'm definitely keeping the descriptions for later use!
Yes I'd love that! Aghhh fantasy writing is so hard, but I love it!
He had everything he needed, but he lacked wisdom. He had taken too much, and it had doomed him. #writesky #writersofbsky
Honestly, I don't believe in "talent" I think it's experience and luck 🍀

What instantly makes you DNF (quit) a book?
A) Slow pacing
B) Flat characters
C) Bad dialogue
D) Confusing worldbuilding
E) Nothing—I finish everything!
Searching for a plot for my fantasy novel feels like hunting for a very specific grain of sand on a beach with the tide coming in. I'll know it when I find it, as long as it doesn't wash away. #writersofbsky #writing #writerlife #authorlife

LOL sounds like me with my fic 🤣 you’ll figure it out!!
I try so hard to do what I can to reduce plastic waste. I buy dog poop bags made from corn, and they’re not actually that expensive, and I’ve got those silicone bags for food. All the biodegradable big trash bags though are very pricy 😭 we need more affordable options!
Honestly thought that was a photograph!! Amazing!
How long did that take you!? It’s awesome!!

Here's an image I took last night of the Bow and Arrow Nebula. The region displays an interesting combination of blue reflection nebulae, red emission nebulae and dark nebulae, especially the dark "river" of Barnard 303. I didn't even know this was a thing until I saw the images from the Rubin Obs 🔭
