- I just officially submitted my first two queries for my psychological thriller, BUT NOW I’M FOUND! Woohoo! And now we wait…
- I just finished my major debut novel rewrite, and now version #4 is in the hands of my gamma readers! Squee!
- My writing partner, Opal. “If I fits, I sits.” —Opie
- I'm convincing you to like the characters from my upcoming mainstream romance novel TANGLED LINES ( #Enemies2Lovers, #TorturedSlowBurn, #ForcedProximity ) based on these exchanges. I love Theo and Ivy, and I hope you like them, too! I can't wait to see where this story takes us! #WIP #Romance
- Welcome to a new week of #WIPSnips! The word for April 28 is "talk" #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
- I just finished Chapter 3 of the mainstream #romance #novel I'm writing! Theo and Ivy are still sniping at each other every chance they get. Ivy's bubbly, larger-than-life personality drives grumpy, judgmental Theo crazy, but there's something about her he just can't put his finger on. #WriterSky
- In my #romance #novel, my #MMC and #FMC are traveling together to Milan for a 2-wk stay. I was there a few years ago, but only spent 1 day there. If you’ve been to #Milan, what are some places that a pair of travel writers should go to for a review piece on Milan? #WriterSky #BookSky #WIP #author
- I wish I could make a living as a professional author. Maybe I can lay the groundwork now so I can do it once I retire. There’s something so magical about developing a strong main character, putting them in unusual situations, & letting them work their way through it. Telling stories is so much fun.
- I’m a little upset at this. I use ZeroGPT to check if audiobook audition scripts are AI-generated, so I thought I’d check a few lines of the romance novel I’m writing in the detector, and this is what I got. WTF! Every word written out of my own imagination, and the detector thinks otherwise. UGH!
- Ivy stares at the photo caption, weighing whether or not she should hit submit. She sighs, rolls her neck slightly, and deletes the caption. Maybe she should try her best to make this work. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingSprints #WIP #Romance #TangledLines
- “Move it along, lovebirds,” someone says behind Theo, and he spins to look at the man, disgust on his face. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #RomanceNovel #TangledLines #DebutNovel #WIP
- Welcome to a new week of #WIPSnips! The word for April 21st is "move" #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
- How do you know when a new idea is itching to get out of your brain and onto paper? When you write almost 10K words in two days, and you end the day literally smiling at what you wrote. This romance idea is really amazing, and I'm really really enjoying it so far!
- #FirstLine “Everyone’s chasing horizons, but it’s the cracks in the pavement that matter.” #WIP #romance #novel #AmWriting
- I’ve fallen completely in love with my new #romance novel idea. Theo Irving and Ivy Sinclair are incredible characters. Also, one benefit of working on a new story is allowing me to clear my head, making the edits on my crime thriller novel so much easier. #WIP #DebutNovel #AmWriting
- I just sat down at my computer and wrote 3,000 words in Chapter 1 of the mainstream romance novel I'm working on, and it felt good. 🙂 I love putting two characters into a situation, and let their dialogue and personal discoveries determine where the chapter goes. #Romance #BookSky #WIP #Pantser
- There are few things better than the #writing research process...and I absolutely LOVE the beginning parts of #storycraft. And this new #romance is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥! Two rival travel writers are about to learn that the greatest adventure isn't the one they are on—but it's the one they never saw coming.
- Post a GIF of who you wanted to be as a kid...
- I'm on edit #4, and this story has been the love of my life. I cannot wait to share it and my FMC - reporter Quinn Campbell - with all of you! #BookSky #WIP #AmQuerying #AmEditing #CrimeThriller #Journalist #Whodunit #DebutNovel
- Go for your dreams. Don’t let ANYONE tell you you’re not deserving of success! I lived too long with soul-crushing self-doubt, and it took the love of my life to finally break the cycle. You can accomplish anything you set your mind to.
- I want to write the next great American novel. I have this innate desire to create deeply layered characters and put them in stories which are impactful to others and force readers to feel some kind of way. I crave creating emotional reactions. I crave crafting incredible stories. It’s who I am.
- Repost with an anime you think everyone should watch!
- Bsky followers: I want to create a new #Substack to talk about my #writing and #audiobooknarration journey. What are some things you would like to read about? Interviews? Real world experiences? Photo stories? Help a writer out!
- The cool thing about doing #novelresearch is when you get a call from an Assistant Special Agent in Charge (ASAC) with the #Georgia Bureau of Investigation (#GBI), and you talk with him for hours about investigative techniques, terminology, inter-agency operations, and other cool stuff! #AmWriting
- Where does Taylor Sheridan find the time to write, direct, produce, and star in all these damn active TV shows…Lioness, Landman, Yellowstone/1883/1923, Mayor of Easttown, Tulsa King, etc. He must write ALL DAY. My dream job.
- What is a movie you love from 1992? 🍀🤔

- Oh, when you try and spam a writer who is also a dialogue nerd LOL
- I’m on Chapter 4 of my third rewrite of #ButNowImFound, and I love reading lines I forgot I wrote. This process is grueling, but little things like this make it worth it. #WriteSky #AmRevising #AmEditing #WIP #WritingCommunity #Authors #Writers

- #BluePit BUT NOW I'M FOUND 102,000-word adult crime thriller Featuring … ⛪ Twisted religious zealots ☠️ Graphic death, grief, and emotional anguish ⚕️ Mental health representation BTW: you'll never listen to Amazing Grace the same way after reading this. #W #A #C #T #WriteSky #WritingCommunity
- THE SPY COAST x SHARP OBJECTS X HOLLY A crime thriller set in the shadow of the Appalachian Trail... A twisted religious serial killer. A wounded but tenacious reporter. Dozens of people missing. Can the reporter live long enough to expose the Mountain Mangler's identity? #BluePit 📖 #W #A #C #T
- Without downloading any new pics, describe your gender with one image/GIF.
- On the left, I have new cover art for my contemporary adult crime thriller! Feedback I received about the one on the right was that it looked more like a cozy thriller, which the story is definitely not. Thoughts?
- sum up ur personality in a gif

- The benefit of beta readers from diverse backgrounds: I had one uncover a huge plot hole in my manuscript today that is going to require a major rewrite to fix. Worth it! This is why early feedback is ESSENTIAL and AMAZING. #WritingCommunity #WIP #AmRewriting #WriteSky #Januwrite
- A beta reader gave me some amazing feedback today - of the not so positive variety - but the changes absolutely need to be made. Not all feedback needs to be positive to be impactful.
- I just had to make an impossible decision. I finished my #DebutNovel after 3 years of work. But I am putting it on the shelf for 10-12 mos so that I can finish writing my doctoral #dissertation. I don't have the #bandwidth for both, even though my female main character is burning through my brain.

- Anyone going to #AWP2025 in Los Angeles? I have some questions...
