I wrote my first 3 manuscripts as a sleep deprived mom whose only “splurge” was a gym membership bc it included 2 hours of childcare a day so I could shower and do writing sprints. No residency, retreats, or MFA. My debut sold to Macmillan and 13 other publishers worldwide 💛
Tell me about how you finished your novel manuscript without ever doing a residency or going on a retreat or taking a sabbatical or ever having more than 3 consecutive hours of free time, because I really need to hear about that please

The best advice from @EJWenstrom’s “Create, Build, & Improve Your Author Website” is you may only get a minute to draw a new reader/follower in, so keep it simple, easy on the eyes, & clear to navigate. #PITTWW #WritingCommunity @BrianKlems

Nothing says “I’m new here” like standing casually in the middle of the metro escalator, as if a herd of overworked type As aren’t about to rage-maul you from behind while exclaiming LEFT SIDE WALKS

It was— and is— such a huge deal for my weird autistic fantasy book to find a home with a big 5 publisher. Inkyard was that home. Through the ups and downs of debuting, I was lucky to work with their talented & passionate team. I was so proud to be an Inkyard author. I still am.

Luxury in restaurants literally used to be quieter: theatlantic.com/technology/a… "Luxury didn’t always mean loud ...From the 1940s through the early 1990s...acoustic treatments themselves were a big part of that luxury."

The trap of going to your phone to play white noise to help you focus, getting distracted by other apps, forgetting why you came, and going back to your work even more distracted, only to go to your phone to play white noise to help you focus, getting distracted... #adhd
