Think it, plot it, write it, mail it,
beta read it, then revise it
print it, bind it, ship it, sell it,
buy it, read it, then review it.

@BabylonFirst I'm Rewatching for the 3rd time. Loving the fresh take on watching the series. Any plans after watching it all to continue to discuss research into why discissions were made or other behind-the-scenes moments that you're not spoiling yourself on the first run?

@emilymdietrich Or a good second, which is much closer:
https://t.co/em7e8s2jBM for The Big Cheese
Our special blend of mozzarella, asiago, smoked provolone, and sprinkled with lots of parmesan

@emilymdietrich I love home made pizza. Load on all the toppings.
Otherwise for restuarant bought, I prefer either:

https://t.co/LjNv0dR2mE for Magik Mushroom
Le Coprin Organic Mushrooms, Fiazza Red Sauce, Fiazza Cheese Blend, Italian Truffle Oil, Fresh Parmesan

Love the truffle oil

@graestonewriter Such an simple yet powerful change. Excellent. #LineByLineTime

@Brookelorren @graestonewriter Good to hear the second is better. I spent a lot of time on those 8 words :) #LineByLineTime

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@graestonewriter Hello #LineByLineTime , I'm Paul and I currently write fantasy. It's a hook, asks a question, poses a mystery, a contradiction to be explained. An opener much like click bait articles you find on the net. Unlike those, your story is much more satisfying after reading in full.

@kristen_kieffer OH NO! I missed it. I wish you all the best. Personally, you've (#StorySocial included) helped me tremendously become a better write and meet with other great writers.

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@kristen_kieffer When pride is comparing yourself to your older self, it's definitely worth celebrating. It's humbling to see your roots, what you struggled with and how you've overcome it.

@kristen_kieffer @Bky_The_Geek Used the old work comparison a few times for encouragement to keep my daughter drawing. It's been a few years now and she ran up to me one day. "LOOK AT THIS! I'M ONLY 10" She was so proud of what she drew, but it took years to get there. #StorySocial

@kristen_kieffer Don't focus on the shortcomings right away. Take a break and do something else. Come back with a clearer head and improve that which you don't like.

Remember, we are a suborn species and typically need many tries before we finally get what we are striving for. #StorySocial

@MeghannWhistler @kristen_kieffer Got to realize your editor wants you to succeed. Even if you don't like the criticism and/or the suggestion on how to fix it, it's still a problem. As the author, you're free to try a different approach. #StorySocial

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@abookbumble @kristen_kieffer Maybe this'll work this time. This is me trying to write.

@kristen_kieffer Read. Read some more. Read again. Read within your genre to see how others write. Read out of your genre to get a fresh look. I'm not a strong reader, but I read to my kids and I'm finding I'm learning lots already. #StorySocial

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@kristen_kieffer I love to plot, but I would really like to get a writing rhythm and stay focused. So discipline and self control is my biggest areas to focus on right now. I'd also like to work on the non-dialog actions more and give it more flair. #StorySocial

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@kristen_kieffer Oh wow. Absolutely.

1. It doesn't look like a complete clone of the movies I grew up with.
2. Villians are not villians because... uh villian?
3. It's not just a story. They are parts of me. Symbolic, or historical, or otherwise.

@L_R_Bauer That's what got us interested in the TV series. The movie's hilarious too. TV has Matt Berry (IT Crowd)

Playing fetch with the werewolves to get rid of them... :D #StorySocial

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@lunacyandmagic @kristen_kieffer But that's still progress! :) #StorySocial

[ℙaul 𝕎arren @RecognizerHD]

@kristen_kieffer Hey @kristen_kieffer and #StorySocial. I'm doing ok. Managing my work stress and all. Week's kinda meh. Keeping super busy and all... my writing? Heh. Uh. I'll just slowly back into the corner now. Uh. Yeah.
