@KiaraMars_ Hey! I don't mind helping :)

I believe every time you finish writing/editing a book, something snaps in your brain and everything you learned writing that book leaves your system so that when you start a new book it always feels like you’re starting from scratch and have no idea how to go about it.

Did i ever tell you about the one time my current fiance and I went on a double date and we asked how they'd got together and they explained that they'd both been so bummed that we turned them down individually that they'd agreed to just date each other? Ultimate flex

@RebeccaFKenney1 I spend a day reading and reviewing the books we consider acquiring at my publishing house. I don't even read the whole book, I don't have time. If i could write a review a day, I'd have to charge $400+ to pay my rent

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@RebeccaFKenney1 Do they actually read the whole book? I understand that the price is steep but if they were to actually read the whole book, $100 wouldn't be enough to live off unless they always have consist business and read monster fast. If it's their job, they need a living wage

When going on vacation, it's important to pack a book. It's actually better to bring 2 books, since you might read quickly. If you want options, though, 3 books is ideal. Then again, if you read a book a day, you'll need 4 books. Really, you should pack 5 b

#writingcommunity, will you help support fledgling small presses by following? Both below are working on fantastic new books in speculative fiction.

@fedowar & @DarkBrewPress

Yes, one is mine, & one is my friend's-@canuckclick. Both have great stuff to offer & more coming up.

@Anori Well look at me being silly 🤦🏼‍♀️

Why are there only like 10 wedding dress patterns from the 80s available online?? I can't be the first poor person to get married? Do the shops have monopoly? Is there a secret fountain somewhere I can't find?

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@maryfordneal Thank you from Denmark! 🇩🇰 Especially on the good looking part ;)

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@colla_voce Ah, I see! Well in that case, I agree 😁

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@colla_voce I think you mean favourite* team, not second!

[Andrew Griffiths @colla_voce]

@AstaGeil He's drowning his sorrows. Well played Denmark, everyone's favourite second team in this tournament.

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@colla_voce Well, technically we've scored two goals now (although one, admittedly, in the wrong goal...) so I'd say we're winning!

It's been a while since I've read any original writing advice, but dangit if my editor @dustinhitz isn't good:

"If the reader is asking "why" it's good to have the characters ask as well, so at least the reader doesn't feel like they missed something."

Brb while I fix my novel

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@TheRomanceBloke Oh! This is one of my absolute favorite novels of all times. You've got good taste, sir 😊

[Asta Geil 🇩🇰 @AstaGeil]

@HorlockWarlock Oh i almost with this was the context it was used in. It was more the context of a protagonist complimenting a friend in his head and saying "metoo aside" in a casual misunderstanding of what the whole movement is about and making his comment seem way more slimey

@BlogSpells This is beautiful!
