When you accidentally destroy your desk and have to cancel your stream, you make character art for your book. It's my FMC - Faedi. #amwriting #amediting #characterart

✅ Covers done ✅ Map done ✅ Formatting template done ❌ Revisions...I've revised 13 chapters of my WIP...only 74 more to go. (We'll ignore that I rewrote my whole WIP from third to first, then back to third because I hated it) #amediting #amwriting

friend: so how's your book coming along?? me: well, I've fancasted all my characters. created a soundtrack for the adaptation. envisioned the climactic final scene in season 5. and have my world tour interview answers prepped. friend: oh cool, when can I read it? me: so you see, the thing is...

So I've been working through my beta readers' feedback for my novel and rather than having to take parts out, I've had to add more. During this process and while chatting with other authors, my book got a funny slogan. Heir of Embers and Eventides - Only 1/3 of the Bible. #amwriting #amediting

Storm anxiety is going to be horrible today/tonight.

Haven't been able to work my day job this week due to computer malfunctions, so I've been working on my hardcover design for my book. I'm rather proud if I do say so myself.

Playing #stardewvalley and destressing on stream. Come out and chill with some lofi and writing chat. Twitch.tv/TickingTPK

The conversation I had with my spawnlings when they saw me plotting key events in my companion series to match book one. Spawn: Parent, what are you doing? Me: ...wishing I had wine and two brain cells to rub together. Spawn: How is making a spreadsheet writing? Me: Don't ask.

Y'all...I just might actually publish by my birthday.

Is it extra to have different covers for paperback/hardbound books? If so, I'm being extra AF.

When you share your cover design with people and some of them ask you to design their book covers. Not what I expected, but heck yeah I did their book covers lol

Called out of work because of a horrendous kidney stone issue and my brain says "now's the perfect time to rewrite the smut scenes in your book". At least I'm still being a little productive? #amwriting #amediting

Don't mind me... I'm just over here assigning a ISBN to my book to order a proof copy. #amwriting #amediting

I feel like I deserve the biggest piece of cheesecake and pepperoni pizza for dealing with my current insane levels of stress.

I want to write two additional chapters in my "Eventides" WIP and finish up part one of my "Wishes" WIP Draft #amwriting #amediting #queerwriters #WritingCommunity #lgbtqwriters

Managed to do another round of edits Had a beta readers tell me they cried reading my story Finished my world map And wrote a new chapter for book 2

I love getting migraines...said no one ever. My normal medicine isn't helping so I'll be hiding in the dark for the foreseeable future.

Guess what I finished today? The map for my fantasy novel! #amwriting #amediting #amdrawing #fantasymap #fantasyworld

Just casually working on my book...even though I know it'll be banned. #amediting #amwriting

Yup. I said it 😂

Woke up Clocked in, regretting I didn't take PTO today Worked for 20 minutes Transformer blows up - no power/internet Calls out of work Power comes back after 2 hours - still no Internet ... Guess I'll work on the map for my book?

I suppose since TikTok is temporarily banned, and we don't know what kind of an app we might return to, I should use this time to edit...but these multicolored lines make me feel like I'm stupid and shouldn't have graduated primary school. #amediting #amwriting #booksky

Well, there we go. Guess we'll see what happens

The second round of big edits are done for Eventides. Now it's just time for tiny stuff while I try to find an artist to commission for character art. I can't believe I'm getting so close to being done with my debut novel.

Have you ever gotten to the point where you don't want to move, but you know if you don't move your chronic pain will be worse? The recent ice and snow has left me not wanting to leave my bed so I suppose I will deal with the pain later because I do not have the spoons to move now.

I believe I might invest in some professional headshots for my author photos once I get my new glasses in a few weeks. Not sure how those will turn out, but we'll see

To query or not to query, that is the question.

#HappyHolidays from my snuggle pups. I wish you all love, peace, and happiness.

Started writing the second book for my fantasy series while I wait for beta reads for book one. I'm really liking this new bundle of characters #amwriting

I'm officially looking for beta readers for my fantasy romance. #amwriting #amediting #amstressed

My spawnlings have all come down with the ick and now I'm starting to feel the same. Joy.
