Kurt Vonnegut writing about the hypocrisy of so-called Christians.

#Vonnegut #Writing
Image of text in a book that reads: For some reason, the most vocal Christians among us never mention the Beatitudes. But, often with tears in their eyes, they demand that the Ten Commandments be posted in public buildings. And of course that's Moses, not Jesus. I haven't heard one of them demand that the Sermon on the Mount, the Beatitudes, be posted anywhere. "Blessed are the merciful" in a courtroom? "Blessed are the peacemakers" in the Pentagon? Give me a break.

sloppy circle - just make it exist first perfect circle - you can make it good later

A Mayan scribe (right) and his instructor (left) – the dots and lines between them form an early speech-bubble, and it's thought the glyphs refer to sloppy work.

So here we have a 1,500yo cartoon of a writer getting a bollocking from his boss!

A Mayan vase, thought to be from 500-900 CE. It is mostly light brown, with darker brown strips at the top and bottom. The middle of the image shows a cartoon-like charcoal-coloured line-drawing of two kneeling men (a student scribe on the right, and his instructor on the left) facing each other over what we can assume to be some writing. The instructor looks narked, and the scribe looks a bit dismayed!

Writing Tip:
Editing is half the battle with writing and needs just as much attention. You're not done just because the draft is done. Now your piece goes from a diamond in the rough to a polished gem. Even great first drafts need in-depth edits to shine.

Small and wise,
elusive and clever,
the wren outwits
winter
and wears
a hard won crown.
Bringer of fire,
feathers aflame,
quick with courage
to #Surpass
the blaze that
scorched his
plumage brown.

Marty’s photo of the day #4545: Great gray owl, photographed just outside my writing room window (in Montana). Sometimes it’s difficult to get work done here.

Is it possible that I am teaching myself this #ragtime song because I wrote a #scifi story about an immortal who loves him some Scott Joplin? Yes, yes it is. Hope you enjoy the first third of Maple Leaf Rag. #piano #scifibooks #debutnovel #hopepunk #writing #writingcommunity #music #nanowrimo

Do not pander. Do not dumb down. Trust your audience to be smarter than you. Trust them to be curious. Don’t erase your own voice for spurious bowing down to factors that bring nothing to the stories you need to tell. #Writing

I found this entertaining. #Writing #WritingAdvice. @alwizards.bsky.social
A comic by (I believe) alwizards_Corner/Alwizard. Six panels (3 rows of 2). Panel 1 shows a man on his knees thinking "The wound is deep, but now is not my time to die." Panel 2 shows him looking determined, thinking, "My plot armor as a named character is stronger than--" Panel 3 shows another man step in and say, "As a final gesture, I willt ell you my name. Know that Mane McVillnn sent you to hell." Panel 4 shows a young man being held back by two guards shouting, "No, my mentor character! His death would be tragic! But also, a huge step in my personal development!" Panel 5 shows the wounded man looking confused as it starts to rain. Panel 6 shows the wounded man looking distraught as the rain increases and pours down his face.

After seeing clips of Bezos's knob-slobbering interview, I'm once again debating whether to pull my books from Amoebazon. I mean, my meager sales would flatline, but... I'd feel better about myself?
