@sarahaadler I'm rarely on Twitter and only signed on to follow the T-swift reactions and was delighted to see your news. Congrats!

@tyler_tyler_tyl I’m on day 10 of a cold that was also very rough. Negative covid. I feel like colds are hitting us harder now after all of our quarantining

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

The WIP is officially over 20k words! There's no going back now, right? #amwriting

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

Me: *cries because I feel bad for a character*
Me to me: It doesn't have to be this way. You have the power here.
Also me: *doesn't change a thing*

@sarahaadler This is the second reference to The Philadelphia Story I've seen this week. I guess that's a sign I should watch it. Being from Philly, and all.

@marcjordancohen Like I haven't seen a single gym scene for all these showers! Not mad about it...

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

The novel word count is now over 10k and I made it to the first line of chapter 4 tonight. Another day! #amwriting

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

I wasn’t connecting with this character (which is why I never write multiple POVs) but I stuck it out and somehow stumbled onto the scene that unlocked my connection. Of course it’s tragic lmao #amwriting #tragedyqueen

I'm trying to create a fictional TV series for my character to write, but turns out my first two ideas are real shows. Does that mean I'm good at titles?! #amwriting

I was today years old when I realized I had absolutely no idea what letters were involved in the spelling of mirage. Some of my attempts were stunningly embarrassing. LOL @ my college degrees.

Not sure if it's the wine or the year of isolation, but this chapter is getting STEAMY. #amwriting

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

There are suddenly 2 chapters and 4.5k words. My 3rd POV is so close that I sometimes catch myself switching to 1st, which feels like a sexy/dangerous line. Digging it. #amwriting

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

From 200 words yesterday to 2,000 words today and suddenly there are thoughts and feelings and people and places and drama, henny. Anything could happen and I don't even know what yet. Ain't writing magical? #amwriting #novel #beginnings

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

Wait. Am I tweeting?

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

Did I just use fount in a tweet?

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

Also, last week was my writing retreat, which I (no surprise) spent not writing, and now that I'm back to work I'm suddenly a fount of inspiration? Nice, universe. Nice.

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

I wrote a solid 1.5 paragraphs of a new novel for an old idea instead of working on the new script or old script. So many WIPs. At least #amwriting ?

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

@ARobertsWrites Same. There’s a reason they are our favorites, right?! lol

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

Do I watch the movie I've seen 100 times or watch one of the 100s of movies I've never seen?

[Scitney Rouston @ScitneyRouston]

I have a growing collection of diva-themed coffee table books. I have never owned a coffee table. But when I do, I'll be ready.
