Writing: "Be what you want. Don’t ask for it. Don’t hope for it. Don’t wait for it. Be it now. Being a “writer” is not something that happens when you sell your first book or land on a bestseller list. It’s a state of mind. It’s who you are." -Jess @JessicaBrody #amwriting

Fortune for Writers: Your instincts are keen today. Trust them. Cut what needs to be cut. Expand what needs to be expanded. This is your house. You make the rules. Lucky numbers: 2, 4, 6, 8 who do we appreciate?

“For many writers, a writing group is valuable simply for the discipline it imposes. It is easier to meet a schedule when you know you must report your progress to others.” #Turabian 2.5 https://t.co/apj0Wm1JFJ

“Describe what you see outside and what you feel inside, how the scene inside shifts and whirls and changes in your ribcage and in your skull, how chocolate and rain taste and what they remind you of. Feel things. And say them. Tell.”

[Literary Hub @lithub]

"For some of our students, 'Don’t tell' repeats the abuse they will have endured along with its highest commandment: secrecy." https://t.co/yVFNdP5xoH

“While freedom and choice often dominate conversations about cultural appropriation, largely missing, Jackson writes, is talk of power.” https://t.co/w0Z5jyWLyN

Another instance of humans making rules merely to break them at every turn.

The use of 'less' in reference to countable things is nearly as old as the written English language. https://t.co/6HLFnh7OYs

Unless you are 110 years old, our definition of ‘literally’ did not broaden to include “figuratively” in your lifetime. https://t.co/RlDFIO1XjD

I need a card that says, You left / books around, and now I'm a teacher, or / We can't talk politics, but we love / old houses.

The third poem from our Mother's Day issue is the relatable "Mother’s Day Greeting" by @LisaMacaione https://t.co/KADqYhedHj

YOU: a poet and a genius, seriously, you’re great

US: a dictionary holding a writing contest, just itching to put a cool grand in your pocket

For all the writers, humorous or otherwise, who worry their ideas will be replicated or taken, this essay acknowledges that similar ideas can and will occur and aren’t always stealing. Move on and do what you do! https://t.co/kfUhqRdjEP
