Spending my time imagining worlds and writing their words. #StoryLover #DogLover #LifeLover *not necessarily in that order.

#DanSimmons' #Hyperion will be coming to the screen! Wish I had gotten into acting, I'd pay just to be an extra! Hang me right up on the #TreeOfPain.

Looks like one of those "one sentence" writing mornings over here... 😕📖💨

@PFDonato Hey #WritingCommunity! My watercolors still look like grade school, but you've got to start somewhere.

@halo_scot When I was a youngin we would collect old pill bottles and fill them with Alka Seltzer to throw at each other. Our parents weren't happy when we discovered that we could add paint to the mix.

[NECTAR @NECTARPOETRY]

we're open for submissions, what have yall been working on?

btw we pay our poets! authors can choose to receive $10 or have $20 donated on their behalf.

we also offer feedback in exchange for donations to local food banks, bail funds, or to us (which goes back to contributors!)

#Published writers: Do you purchase a copy of your work if it wasn't offered? e.g. an anthology or magazine?

@The_Morda_Shin I literally just purchased The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Royal Britain 35 minutes ago (according to my email confirmation)

@jayeedgecliff I'm glad to see with the surgery and stress you seem (and I truly hope you are) in a better place!

Hey #WritingCommunity! What's the longest break you've taken from writing? Why did you take a break and what brought you back? #writers #writerslife

[Benjamin J Franke @BenFrankeWrites]

Mine was 6 months. I was losing confidence and then one of my. "oddball" stories got picked up. All the boost I needed!

[Benjamin J Franke @BenFrankeWrites]

After a good six months of nothing, hitting the keyboard again. Anyone else a #WinterWriter?

[Benjamin J Franke @BenFrankeWrites]

@risawolf I really did enjoy reading through these stories too. Yours was great. Now I have to google how to make a Donauwelle cake.

@bosandaros I've been working on watercolor lately.

[Benjamin J Franke @BenFrankeWrites]

I've heard @joerogan talk about it 100 times so I figured I'd better pick it up.
