2.5 hour story building call last night w/ my “beta reader.” It’s invaluable to have a close friend invested in your work, especially one who will argue w/ you. Besides being a highly functional/productive aspect of me figuring out my story, it’s really fun! #booksky #indieauthor #writingcommunity

The subject change from debilitating grief and regret to Littlethumb’s infatuation with Maria put Sawyer further at ease, and he laughed warmly at his former apprentice’s romantic stupor. “You’ve got it bad, don’t you?" #thurds #writingcommunity #indieauthor #booksky www.audible.com/pd/Littlethu...

They fell in love easily, though Hook lives in denial of his true feelings. He's simply glad she's warm and he has someone to mate with. Yep. That’s what he thinks. At this point of their story, Hook would fall apart if Lia mated elsewhere. #thurds #writingcommunity www.amazon.com/Post-pocalyp...

When Timmy began hunting the destruction of our existence he was still a child. Indeed, his hatred for our universe was pure childish contempt from the beginning. With no one to spank him, his contempt never felt the warm hand of correction. #thurds #writingcommunity www.audible.com/pd/Daffodil-...

“Bad dreams?” “Stupid ones.” “Breakfast in the tin there. Should still be warm. Coffee too.” “Sweet. Where’s Jake?” “Morning business.” “That’s two days in a row he’s been up before me.” “He’s always been inconsistent with his sleep..." #thurds #booksky #writingcommunity bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

Is he mortal? How long will he last? Will he do all the stuff he wants to w/ his life? Does he know all of the stuff he wants to do with his life? Will it hurt when he dies? There you go Jack22. There’s a little dose of humanity for you. Fuck you buddy. #thurds #booksky bookshop.org/p/books/post...

First, a tiny bud sprouted. Then the bud quickly uncurled itself into a full-grown beautiful leaf. Darius smiled at the wonder of creation. "Hi Tom!" he thought. "So wonderful to see you again!" #thurds #booksky #writingcommunity #writingandbooks ✍️ bookshop.org/p/books/daff...

“Fine” Dick agreed. “No problem. Now get out of here, would ya? And stop drinking. Please. I love you, buddy. You’re too young to be drinking in the middle of the day.” Tommy flipped Dick Mann the bird as he walked out with a sardonic smile on his face. #thurds #booksky bookshop.org/p/books/litt...

“Here.” Zeke hands Truant a warm mug. “Hopefully this will help your fever.” “Thank you.” Truant sniffs the concoction, then takes a sip that makes his taste buds wince. Woof, this is worse than the Tumah. #thurds #booksky #writingcommunity 💙📚 ✍️ 🖋️ bookshop.org/p/books/the-...

“IT’S MONDAY SOMEWHERE!” might seem an odd battle cry, but on Lark it’s a powerful homage to Bloody Monday. I scream from atop a cybernetic raptor, riding with the Gambol Liberation Army into battle. “IT’S MONDAY SOMEWHERE!!!” #martialmonday #vss365 #bravewrite 💙📚 ✍️
