When you're about to submit a story, then decide to, you know, rewrite the entire thing.... #amwriting

[Lori Cramer @LCramer29]

New month, new words. #amwriting

[Lori Cramer @LCramer29]

Good advice from @LouiseWeebe !

[Louise Jensen Duffy (also Ernest Jensen) @LouiseWeebe]

Choose your friends wisely. Some will lie to your face and say things like “you have enough books” or “why don’t you read the ones you have?”

[Lori Cramer @LCramer29]

Today's task: strengthening verbs. #amwriting

[Lori Cramer @LCramer29]

@brecht_dp That's so awesome!

[Lori Cramer @LCramer29]

Have you sent your micro to the @SmokeLong Grand Micro Contest yet?

[SmokeLong Quarterly @SmokeLong]

You've got something like 17 days to enter, so you need to get on this. You can enter previously published work in this comp. What about that killer micro you published in 2006 in that wildly popular ezine that went defunct? Yeah, that one. https://t.co/FbmQfKy67a

Love this!

[Ben Niespodziany ☁️🐋 @neonpajamas]

While tracking down a writer's first two (out of print books), I found one used copy online, then messaged the author & he's happily mailing me the other

Email your heroes

Got some stuff to send to @electricpinkmag ?

[electric pink ⚡️🩷 @electricpinkmag]

this weekend we're offering another 24-hour response window. send us new stuff to read.

[Lori Cramer @LCramer29]

When a certain word pops up so many times in the span of a few days--in song lyrics, overheard conversations--that it's clear you must write a story about it.
