Friendly reminder that if art is how we decorate space, then music is how we decorate time. #booksky #music

Art. Art is the goal. Art makes you happy. Art makes the world go around. Selling your art may pay the bills, but in the end, it won't make you happy. Making the art will.

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

Everyone starts off thinking they want writing advice but slowly finds out what they're really looking for is writing _confidence_ to get in the chair and do the work.

“I have too many books” -judgemental -boring -implies impulse-control issues “The books... they have me.” - mysterious - occult - implies you are at the mercy of a library of books that have gained sentience and are holding you hostage #readingcommunity

Don't make art for sale. Make art for art's sake. Make art because without it, life would not be worth living. Make art because it helps you sleep at night. Make art because it gives you hope, because it soothes the savage beast in your heart, because it is an escape from the mundane.

“The cost is not monetary. True magic does not respond to the curse of silver.” “What is it then? I’ll do anything!” “Come inside, out of the rain.” “It’s not raining.” A crack of thunder was her only warning. A torrent of rain followed the thunder out of a cloudless sky. “Interesting.” #Satsplat

Assuming all fanfiction is written poorly really just shows you've never been caught in the chokehold of a 150k slowburn that changed the course of your life at 2:40am written by someone whose username has 4 Zs in it and they only wrote one fic and then vanished like an ethereal legend.

How do I write funny, when the world is on fire? Point out the insane. They'll lock me up. Better to be locked up for telling the truth, than to live in a mansion of lies. My heart is breaking. Write anyway. Art is resistance. Funny is resistance. Truth is resistance. #Satsplat

I haven't said much since Tues because I didn't have anything helpful to say. How do we keep going when America is sliding into authoritarianism? Then I realized: I've been thinking about this for years. I wrote a whole novel (OUR MISSING HEARTS) looking for ways to keep hope alive in darkness.

All writing advice is basically an attempt to speedrun "Read good books and think really hard about how they work," so if you can't do workshops and all that, you can still go back to reading good books and thinking really hard about how they work.

Post an elevator pitch for your book: Practice, practice, practice. Someday you'll have to say it for real...

Not weird. Not weird at all. We are human. We have emotions. We want to feel connected.

You #complete me. Dear god. What drivel is this? You're the missing puzzle piece in my life. Oh, it's all about you and your needs, eh? Well, I also hope that I am your puzzle piece. You're not. My life is complete without you. But I'm your dragon! You're my rider! #SATSCIFAN

Writing Tip: A good way to fine-tune your story is to verbally talk it through. Don't rely on it being in your head. When you verbalize it, it forces you to make it concrete and you might notice inconstancies. Doubly so by talking with close friends you trust. #writing #writingtips #writingcommunity

Gnarled, tangled limbs stretch to heaven etched in ink fractures in the sky. Not every tree climbs up and away to heaven some reach down to hell. Before the dawn must come the long, cold, dark of night Greet the sun with warmth. #Satsplat

The apple is ready, my queen. #Perfect! Revenge! Is this really fair, my queen? What did she ever do to you? She's younger, prettier, and dumber. She deserves this. Lillith, I thought you didn't want Adam. That doesn't mean she can have him. Now, go get that snake. #SATSCIFAN

Insecurity. Rejection. Indifference. Resentment. Frustration. These things—all part of the writing gig—pile up and turn people into assholes. Don’t let that happen to you. Remember why you do this. Remember the power of storytelling. Stay kind, support others, and keep writing.
