I’ve been writing my current #WIP for two weeks now. I’ve had a lot of good writing sessions and I’m currently at 23,206 words. There is something satisfying about sitting down for 5 hours straight, not blinking and writing 3500 words. I love this story. #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky

Having two kids around the same age is great for having someone for them to play with, not great for deciding “whose turn it is to get washed first in the tub.”

New Year’s resolutions can start whenever. Did you give up one? Start again. Is there a new one you thought of? Don’t wait until next year.
You can always grow, you can always change at any time.

I learned to speak German for work. Still learning but I’ve gotten conversational. Now I want to learn Spanish to speak with the parents of the other kids in my son’s school.

Someone I know is currently reading my horror novella, “All Manner of Beast & Man” and she was taken aback about how realistic the psychological turmoil was. I revealed that I wrote this book to process some psychological trauma I experienced. She was impressed. #writersky #writingcommunity #booksky

I’m writing my novel in “sections.” I call them that because rereading this I’m probably going to split each one in half in the 2nd draft. Anyway. Section 5 is done! 19,500 words so far! Really pumped about where this is going! #writersky #writingcommunity #booksky

They say you have to write 5 bad books before you write a good one. I don’t think any of my books are bad, but I am currently writing my 6th, so I am feeling like it is my time. #writingcommunity #writersky #authorsky

My name is Damien and I’m an author. I love writing thrillers. I’m currently writing my 6th book, a commercial length novel I’d like to get traditionally published. The genre is thriller (naturally) with elements of horror and erotica. Follow me on my journey. #writersky #booksky #writingcommunity

If you have a follower count in the double digits, you are not going to convince me to pay your friend to help me market my books that “got your book on the bestseller list.” These people put so much effort into their scams it’s exhausting. #booksky #authorsky #writersky #writingcommunity

Authors, it’s ok to lift each other up! Your readers are probably not my readers. We are not in competition. You help me find my readers and I’ll help you find yours. #booksky #writersky #writingcommunity #writing

I’m obviously going to be happy when I’m done writing this story, but I am enjoying writing it so much I don’t want it to end. #booksky #writersky #authorsky #writingcommunity

Writers, what is the biggest group of people you have had in a dialog? Readers? Currently writing a scene with 8 people in it. #WriterSky #Writingcommunity #booksky

My favorite visual art form is #printmaking. I’d love to illustrate a book with block printing. Maybe I’ll do it for my #WIP. #writingcommunity #booksky

Actually it would seem like 2 people read it all the way through! Or 222 people read one page and DNF’d it! (I like to stay positive though.)

I spent $50 on an Amazon ad for my psychological horror. One person read it the whole way through on kindle. I got 79 cents. But a 5 star review! Haha, count the wins I guess. #booksky #writingcommunity

Alright #WriterSky, it’s “Favorite word” time. My favorite is “maelstrom.” I love that word but I use it very sparingly because I feel like I will devalue it if I overuse it. Like it is finite.
What’s your favorite word?

There is something satisfying even about a small writing session — a few hundred words — if they are good words you want to keep and they move the story forward. #writingcommunity #writersky #booksky
