It still surprises me how much I learn about myself each time I write a new novel. I'm never exactly who I thought I was. I like that.

@DazedPuckBunny Maybe it comes down to having the right support staff to help do all the things you don’t want to do….

[B. A. Wilson @BAWilsonWrites]

The overwhelming message of Hallmark & Lifetime Christmas movies seems to be that inn owners are the happiest career-people in the world, to which I must ask:

When did cooking & cleaning up after others, day-in and day-out, become idealized? Isn’t that what we are all sick of?

[B. A. Wilson @BAWilsonWrites]

And this is not a jab at Hallmark or Lifetime. I love them and have watched at least 30 of their Christmas movies so far and will probably watch 30 more.

…but 75% of all side characters have solved their unhappiness in life by buying an Inn way out in the middle of nowhere.

After an exhausting day, I finally sat down and conquered my first 10 words for #NaNoWriMo. Yep. Going great so far. Now, I remember exactly why I wanted to do this again. . .

Things to know about #nanowrimo:

1) It's okay if you want to choose your idea on Nov 1
2) It's okay if you want to be a rebel and write something other than a novel or 50K words or whatever
3) It's okay to have FUN

🔥❤️✨

@adamconnorlewis Same here. I’m trying to get prepared now, on day one. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[B. A. Wilson @BAWilsonWrites]

@EllenMandeville Well, hopefully we can take the ideas in our heads and get them on paper. Fingers crossed. Good luck!

[B. A. Wilson @BAWilsonWrites]

I have once again decided to do #NaNoWriMo at the last possible moment, and all I’ve pulled together this evening is a questionable playlist for an idea that I have had for years and ignored. I plan to completely pants it, because no time. #WritingLife

SAY IT OUT LOUD came out in fall 2021, when public events were still impossible. It got lost, as so many books did, & still hasn’t found its readers. If you’ve read it, would you please review? https://t.co/mA9AilqP4y

[B. A. Wilson @BAWilsonWrites]

I think advice that people should “read a book” to help wind down before bed is bad logic. That person has clearly never read a good book. Books don’t wind me down. They wind me up.

PSA: If they wind you down, please go to your local librarian for help choosing better books.

A guy sent me this emoji 🫡 2 wks ago and based on how the chat was going, I seriously thought it meant “look at my dick” or “dickhead”

Needless to say, both interpretations irritated me. I’ve only just seen this emoji on a much larger screen & finally understood what it is.🤦🏻‍♀️
