Oh, something crazy like actually start.
I need to take time to read and time to revise. In a "definitely doing it at this time" way, and not vaguely might get to it.

I can achieve all my goals if I make a sincere effort to start.
Q4: What can you do in the next three days to make the next week of #FirstDraftFall easier for yourself? #WeeknightWriters

My favorite part of #FirstDraftFall is watching everyone be excited about their projects. So many interesting things to read!

I'm struggling with the normal stuff... scheduling my time and actually starting. That includes editing and beta reading.

Not sure how the group can help. Maybe accountability check-ins? Basically, stay chatting even through the holidays.

I'm good. I had thought I'd write something for submission due on 11/30. Never did get that going. Looking forward to editing my short when I'm not (Beta?) reading for my awesome friends Hope and Dannye.

Turning my thoughts to goals for 1st Quarter 2026.

I'm JD (she/her), writer of SFF (with an without romance) and contemporary romance, usually with bi leads.

My WIP is the revisions of a sapphic weird western short story I'll release in January: Venom in the Valley of Bones. Femme and Butch twins fighting a snake!

Bringing this over from Instagram. I wanted to do a post every odd-numbered day about the different languages I've studied. Being an indie author, my characters are often multilingual and usually better at their languages than I am.

In order of attempt, Spanish was my first "foreign" language.

I got myself a lifetime subscription to Pimsleur languages for Black Friday. For the record, I've studied to some degree 10* of the 51 languages it offers.

*European Portuguese and Tagalog were truly beginner-level, but I'm counting them here.

Anyway, it says my Finnish accent is so-so. Unfair!

I don't know. The nice thing I learned about the community, though, is that you are around when I do need something. All I have to do is use the tags and ask.
Q5: What can we in the #WeeknightWriters community do to make the next week of #FirstDraftFall easier for you?

I'm going to enjoy not having to work! I'll also do some house cleaning. That clarity should go into my writing. I'd like to think so!

I haven't wanted to write lately, and my struggle is restarting and getting back into writing. When I'm in the zone, I can easily write a short story during the rest of the days this long weekend.

So what have you got for how to get in the flow again?

#WeeknightWriters #FirstDraftFall A1

I never picked a project for FDF. Haven't been in a writing space, but am in a reading space I keep getting nudges from friends, though, that I need to polish and publish my centaur series, so I might do something on that in December.

Hello #WeeknightWriters! Pleasantly surprised to have a chat tonight.

I might have time to do a song-inspired story for a submission call due Sunday 11/30. Other than that, I've got intentions to revise a sapphic weird western I'll release on January 6th.

Not enough space to include this:
Thanks to support from #WeeknightWriters fam while I was grieving. My boy is home!
#Caturday miracle!

Exactly four weeks ago, my male cat named Inky disappeared. He came back home this morning. I didn't immediately realize it was him until I noticed the grey sparkles in his black fur and his one white whisker. My boy is napping in my bedroom. He's filled out and appears healthy.
