Getting words down, even if they’re not the right words yet, even if they aren’t as good as other people’s, is still a profound relief.
Because now you have a place to start.

A sugary glaze coats the roads as I watch cars creep past. I sip my coffee, type my verse, and savor the quiet joy of being a writer today. #WritingCommunity #5amWritersClub #WritingThoughts

If my characters meet and they DON’T threaten to kill each other, is it really a meet-cute?

I think it would be very cool (& motivating for aspiring authors) if author bios stated how many years/books those authors wrote before they got to publish their debut.

There's multiple fictional versions of you living in other people's minds.
I wonder how all mine are doing. We should all get together.

One thing I struggle to remember is that sometimes what is a slog for the writer is not a slog for a reader. It's tempting to think so. But I've loved passages that were infuriating to articulate once they were honed. #WriterSky #WritingThoughts

Is it a writing vibe or a calling? I can't not write. It's an impulse I can't ignore. When I don't write, I feel twitchy...

How long must the sun be blamed for the clouds misdeeds? Earth basks in eternal sun, yet we curse it for every rainy day. Why blame absence on the source rather than the cause—darkness is merely light obscured, truth buried beneath lies, and love overshadowed by hate #5amWritersClub #WritingThoughts

Huh. Anyone else ever process your own difficult experiences by exploring them through a character? Not sure if this always works, but I think it helped me today. Feels like I can let go of some of the heavy stuff now. #writingcommunity #writingthoughts
