I finally finished another chapter of book 3! There’s still so much left to write that it feels kind of daunting, especially because ME/CFS means I write pretty slow, but I’m still chipping away at it! And I’m really enjoying where this story is going! #booksky #writingcommunity #pwme

I’m currently reading Spirit Bound by Richelle Mead and Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros! #NZWrites

Absolutely this. There is so much that I want to get done that I just can’t. #mecfs #pwme

💯

This is something we also need to keep focusing on here in Aotearoa #nzpol

I don’t usually listen to music while I write, although if I’m having trouble with a scene sometimes I’ll put on a song or two that give the right kind of vibe, just to get me back on track. #NZWrites

Arg, @lastweektonight.com isn’t screening in New Zealand anymore! Why??? You hijack our bird of the century competition (election interference!), mock our politicians (fair), make fun of our accent (also fair), and now we can’t even watch your show. Sad one, bro.

Yes! This! I got lost once picking up a package two suburbs over from mine. Spent about half an hour driving around in circles. My sense of direction is…not good.

Current read. (Yes, I know I’m behind the times and the third one is out already but I’m always late to … well, everything, so please don’t judge me) #booksky

I loved writing as a kid, got to about ten and thought that being “an author” was impossible for an ordinary person from New Zealand and stopped writing much. Wrote bad poetry as a teen. Enjoyed academic writing at school and uni. And then began writing fiction in my 30s. #NZWrites

This one’s fairly impossible to answer! #NZWrites

Catching up on these! I’m a night owl so definitely an evening writer 🦉 #NZWrites

I don’t write anywhere fancy! I’m mostly homebound with ME/CFS so I write either on the couch or in bed. Anywhere I can lounge around with my feet up! #NZWrites

When tweets look like parodies but they’re not…

My current WIP is the third in my YA paranormal academy series and it has a whole lot of vampires, witches, werewolves, supernatural drama, and found family vibes. (Although, at this point, the found family is falling apart a little…)

Cannot stop listening to this album by @thelastdinnerparty.bsky.social

Trying to catch up on these! My favourite genre to write is anything paranormal. For me, I think it’s easier to explore heavier themes when they’re slightly removed from the real world. But also, vampires, witches, werewolves, and magic are just fun to write about.

Whoops, I’m a bit late on this one! Anyway, I’m Amy and I’m currently writing a YA paranormal series! 🔮🧛‍♀️🐺 I love books, cookies, and watching too much tv. #NZWrites

If anyone still has any doubt about Elon Musk’s gesture the other day, don’t. amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/01/...

Current read by @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social Really needing these cosy fantasy vibes right now.

Hands up everyone who zooms in on every picture posted with a bookshelf in the background to check out the books

I’ve seen multiple people saying this “salute” was just awkwardness due to Elon Musk’s autism. No. Just, no. Performing nazi salutes is not a symptom of autism. It is, however, an indication of white supremacy.

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.
