"A Room of One’s Own" by Virginia Woolf demonstrates that creative rebirth can be sparked when women carve out spaces for their own ideas, reclaiming agency over their minds and futures. #BookWormSat Art: Roisin O'Farrell

Yes, it's fun to be outraged and dunk on the alt-right extremists posting on Ex-twitter in support of the fascist lunatic and his picks. I politely suggest maybe don't do it here on Bluesky. Please? We came here to get away from the toxicity. Let's stop treating Ex-twitter as worthy of repeating.

I am sitting here, Sundays being my day to write. I asked myself: What's the point? And you know what, *that* is the point. Create, despite despair. Create as an act of defiance. Create words, like those what helped me when I needed it, that might help others. I can only hope that's the case.

the whithered whale wails his worries away for a while ago the winds carried some sails his way, carrying corroded souls and harpoons, covered in curded, crusted blood of his kin. The whale wrung their ship in the water, washing away the blood. But the whale bled his own from the wounds he succumbed

📝 Writing Tip - Bring scenes to life by engaging the senses. Instead of saying "The room was cozy," describe the crackling fireplace, the scent of woodsmoke, or the softness of the armchair’s fabric. Sensory details anchor the reader in the scene & allow them to experience it firsthand.

The first task of every author is to evoke emotion in their reader. You may laugh or you may cry; you may love me or you may hate me. So long as you feel something, I know that I’m doing my job. V.L. Dreyer #Quote
