So, if we aren’t supposed to use adverbs, too many verbs are frowned upon and we can’t over use ‘that’, ‘just’ and whatever else.
What the hell can we write??
I literally didn’t know returning books was a thing until I joined the
#WritingCommunity
and saw the debates.
I would never dream of returning a book just because it “wasn’t for me”, that’s honesty so weird.
(is it a reintroduction if i never introduced myself?)

I had a man threaten to murder me today.
The scariest part? This isn’t the first time and it probably won’t be the last.
Welcome to being a woman and existing.
Quickly realising that everyone in the
#WritingCommunity
is married?!
I’ve been following the “tortured artist, cursed to be forever alone” script. Was there a meeting? I did not get this memo.
I would just like to say that since joining the
#WritingCommunity
I feel like I’ve made so many friends (all over the world) and I’m so bloody grateful for each and every one of you!🖤
While cutting through the cemetery on my way to work I heard a soft “good morning” and thought I’d finally been given the power of necromancy.
It was a man walking his dog, utterly devastated.
I’m writing my first nonfiction piece for a long time. It’s on living with an autoimmune disease & chronic pain.
Even if it doesn’t go anywhere, I think I just need to write this one for me.
Just saw so many businessmen watch an elderly lady struggle to carry her trolley up the tube steps.
Did I show them all up by carrying it for her while holding 3 bags AND in knee high boots? You bet I did.
a writer reached out through my personal socials wanting free services from the litmag while I was working a 9-8 shift and because I hadn’t responded by the end of the day, sent this and blocked
let me make this SO CLEAR: you are not entitled to me or my time
if you ever feel like this community has disappeared/become toxic, just read through all these comments of unwavering support from people (most of which I don’t know)

everyone is so scared to kill their darlings but it’s my favourite part of editing
there’s a massacre happening in draft two & i’ll kill your darlings too if you let me
Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child you have stolen, for my will is as strong as yours and my kingdom as great.
You have no power over me!
I know I look so stupid walking down the road typing vigorously but what people don’t understand is, this walk fixed a plot hole.
I MUST TYPE BEFORE I FORGET.
Sometimes I worry that my book isn’t going to be relatable, then I browse Twitter and realise that I’ve never had an original thought.

Excuse our slight tardiness. Much like today's flash, we've been having carnivore issues of our own (the giant one-eyed cat made of shadows is disgruntled this evening). Enjoy...

So my current WIP takes place in a church cemetery which is based on one near my house.
This means I should definitely loiter in the graveyard after dark for research, yes?
