- Back home from a 10 hour kitchen shift on mother's day. I'll go back to writing tomorrow or Tuesday....or tonight after a drink. #writingcommunity #amwriting
- 'The War of the Grand Marshal' It's mentioned briefly as part of Captain Lan Rigoc's backstory, but the current state of galactic borders and politics are defined by the conflict. #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #WIPPIT #amwriting #writingcommunity #sff 🪐📚
- That would be the Captain, Lan Rigoc. Maybe it's the old star trek fan in me, but the idea of captain of a starship is the stuff of dreams. #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #WIPPIT #writingcommunity #amwriting
- Day 7 of #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions. You can answer in the comments or quote. I can't wait to see all of your answers. Make sure to # us so we & everyone else can see them and have fun with it. 🥰📇✍️ Food 4 thought: Why? Why do they stick out? Could you flesh them out more?(You don't have to post)
- Overslept. Had to rush to work. Having my first cup of coffee. Beautiful Saturday on Mother's Day weekend. Today's shift is going to suck.
- "What is your preferred mode of transportation?" Me:
- What are you wearing bsky prom?
- Waiting to get slammed by mother's day weekend business at work. Here's some #food from my restaurant: #foodsky #mothersday
- I've done quite a bit of research into crystal magic. The rules surrounding crystal magic/technology is different in my book obviously, but it was still a fun thing to research. #writingcommunity #amwriting #WIPPIT #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions
- Day 6 of #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions. You can answer in the comments or quote. I can't wait to see all of your answers. Make sure to # us so we & everyone else can see them and have fun with it. 🥰📇✍️ Food 4 thought: How has this shaped your story/character? (You don't have to post)
- For Elise Clarke, that would be her PTSD about the Death of Earth and her insecurities about her own humanity. #writingcommunity #amwriting #WIPPIT #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions
- My MC's favorite escape is the Observation deck of the spaceship Seteria. She just lean back in one of the chairs and stare at the stars. #writingcommunity #amwriting #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #SFF #WIPPIT
- Well, that's easy. Calling Occupants of Planetary Craft by the Carpenters. It's basically the theme song of my novel. I actually reference it directly a couple times in the book. #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #writingcommunity #amwriting #writesky #WIPPIT #SFF youtu.be/teBV0EoJJY8?...
- #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #writingcommunity My MC is spent most of her life on war torn Earth before Humanity's uplift. As the first human to serve in the Royal Navy, she is meant to represent Humanity's redemption. But she struggles with her own Humanity and trauma/feelings about her own species.
- #WIPPITStickyNoteQuestions #Writingcommunity #AmWriting I've always loved fish out of water stories where characters experience Culture shock. Elise Clarke spends most of the novel as the only human in the room. She is the Alien learning to live in galactic society and serve in the Royal Navy.
- Alright, #Questpit proved to be a big success for my WIP. And I feel the best way to prepare for #WIPPIT is to complete a first draft. Wish me luck. #WritingCommunity #AmWriting
- WOW. Nearly 200 likes. Over 100 new followers. And #Questpit isn't over yet. This is the most successful pitch event I've had since the old Pitmad on that bird app thing forever ago. Thanks for the support.....oh god, I'm really going to have to finish this book now. #writingcommunity #amwriting

- I like the pitch, very interesting set up. Also, I'm insanely jealous of how gorgeous the agent guide is. Nicely done.
- BONE SHARD WAR/THE JASAD HEIR There's a reason magic was silenced. Who will bring it back? The sorceress who will tear down empires, the smuggler with split loyalties who doesn't believe it exists, or the warrior who would die to keep it secret. #QuestPit #Q #A #F #AgentsGuide
- I like this. I'm a sucker for 'magic is forbidden' and culture clash Fantasy stories.
- SE7EN x THE WAILING x CHINESE FOLKLORE A Hongkonger Taoist demon and a British Christian exorcist hunt a ghostly killer inspired by Buddhism’s five poisons. #W #H #A #QuestPit 💙📚 #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #horror #agentsguide #asian #writing #OwnVoices #BookSky
- I like Se7en, Dragon Tattoo, and Eastern Folklore in general. Sign me up for this.
- Time for the best time of the day!! (liking and stalking everyone’s #questpit )
- Slow Horses x Dark Matter When an intelligence agent is framed for the UK’s role in a temporal disaster, he must clear his name and seal a lethal time rift - before a Russian spy from the future gets everyone killed. #A #S #T #QuestPit #Q
- oh, I like this idea.

- I am
- Alright. No work. No spring cleaning today. It's just me and my story. Hoping to prep some character bios for #questpit tomorrow but my main focus is writing as many words into my manuscript as possible before the day is done. #writingcommunity #amwriting #SFF #authors
- You know, spring cleaning(yes, spring only just now arrived in Buffalo) around the house is actually very helpful. Creatively speaking. Got earbuds in and just mapping out scenes in my head while cleaning. #writingcommunity #amwriting
- I'm free. On my way home now. Got three days off. Here's pizza from my work. #foodsky
- Still trapped at work. Still bored. Here's a Tomato & Burrata from my work. #Foodsky
