Internet bullies (aka trolls) are real and can be very toxic. If we find bullying unacceptable IRL, then why do we let it happen online? #MondayBlogs #WritersLife #SocialMedia
We Let Strangers In: Internet Bullies
Bullies can be found everywhere, from the workplace and the schoolyard playground, but if bullying is so wrong, why do we let it continue online?

I, like many others, started strong, then it all went belly up. For me, it was a little factor called life (& depression). There's only so much creativity that happens when you are struggling to piece together the chaos. Chaos in stories, I'm all good. Chaos in life... nope. #PretendPanel #WriteSky
#pretendpanel, it's time to check in!

November 28th: It's almost the end of November! How did you go this month? (whether you set a goal, or took part in a challenge, or not!)

Is anyone else feeling the increased stress and anxiety in the air? I'm not a fan of this time of year anyway, but this year feels extra stressful and overwhelming. And my "give a f***" tolerance level seems to have plummeted. Am I the only one feeling this?

random "new world" fact: NEVER call a lycan a "werewolf". they consider it to be a racial slurr and will punch you for saying it.

It might have been an interview from some time ago, but having the power to say "No" is more crucial now than ever before. Hold true to your values. It's important to occasionally say "No." #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #WriteSky

My answer to this #PretendPanel question is Yes and No. #Writing challenges can help you get "unstuck", but sticking religiously to challenges can be restrictive and unproductive. I use them as just another tool when I need some motivation and inspiration.
#WritingCommunity #WriteSky #AmWriting
#pretendpanel, thank you for the wonderful insightful answers yesterday. I wonder...

November 22nd: Do you find external challenges useful? e.g. writeathons, sprinting, prompts etc.

The best way to support other #writers is to share your knowledge and help to spread the word of a book's existence. There is so much misinformation and lack of information about certain phases. And discoverability is hard at the best of times.
#PretendPanel #WritingCommunity #WriteSky
#pretendpanel, as this big writing month nears its end, I'm wondering...

November 21st: In your opinion, how can writers best help one another?

I have multiple projects on the go, all at different stages of the process... and with different mental purposes. Lately, I've been spending time on my "passion" project, refueling the energy need to do the "market" projects. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #AmWriting

Good article on the targeting of Australian authors by scammers posing as publishing service providers (I've been reporting on these scams since 2022--one of the markers for them is that, unlike other publishing scams, they sell ghostwriting services) www.theguardian.com/books/2025/n...

Book publishing websites in Australia, the UK and New Zealand appear to be using fake testimonials and AI staff pages to lure aspiring writers into handing over their money

I’m currently reading “Hyphens & Hashtags”, a book about the history of punctuation. Apparently, in 1837, two Frenchmen decided that a duel was necessary over the use of a semicolon. I can envision the scene now; one man curled into a dot, with the other on the ground in a comma. 😂 #BookSky #Writers

Yes, there was a time when the consensus opinion was that strangers should be able to find your phone number and address, and you had to pay extra to have an "unlisted" number.
In my experience many youngish people are stunned that there may have been a big (or several big) books delivered to your home which listed your name, address and phone number.

I'm so out of touch with #writingLifeMonthly (being sick didn't help), but popping back in.

I struggle to DNF books that I paid for. I paid for it, damn it! I should read it. BUT as I'm getting older, I have less patience for dribble and am DNFing books more easily.

I've started setting aside novels I don't enjoy more quickly. With limited time and so much great writing out there, I have no regrets about moving on. You?

November #writing challenges are odd beasts, but it depends on where you are in the world. In New Zealand, it's spring! We're looking for excuses to get out of the house. NaNo gave us that excuse. Got to a WriteIn & connect with other #writers. But sadly, we need other excuses now.

#pretendpanel, even before the last big controversy, November challenges have had their ups and downs. Tell me...
