Katlyn Roberts

Snarky writer of stories that connect history, travel, and culture. Just following my fascinations around the world, trying to make 10yo me happy.

I'm really touched by this shoutout from @ItxyLopez in her article, "How to Write Without Caring What People Think."
I definitely DO care what people think, but it's nice to know that doesn't come across in my writing. 😂

It's finally up! I've been working on this Frankenstein piece for ages because I wanted to get it right. I hope you like it and I hope it's the #Halloween deep-dive you had no idea you needed.🎃🧟‍♂️⚰️

Got dressed up and pretty for my first #therapy appointment with a new therapist today. Why would I bother to do that? …I’ll let you know when she diagnoses me.

Here’s my updated #describeyourselfin3fictionalchacters because I still love this game and my characters from 2016 don’t fit anymore.
Anyone want to send me theirs?

#Travelwriter problem- past me is such an asshole for never labeling audio files immediately after uploading them. The hell’s my problem?

@booksbysavannah Here’s the latter if you ever wanted to try it out: https://t.co/vzKI2VuRMN

@booksbysavannah I’ve got one playlist of songs I know so well that I’m not listening to the lyrics and one of instrumental/lyrics in languages I don’t know so I’m not even tempted to sing along. Depends what I’m in the mood for.

@theresalkrupp Oh god, so nervous. I usually end up using them for future chapters so I never get rid of anything until I’m completely done.

@Jaketaggs Had to check the weather but yes, it appears so. Can I ask why that’s relevant?

[Katlyn Roberts @WritesAbroad]

Morning!🌞Welcome to my Barcelona garden office. The weather’s finally cooled down enough to make it habitable again.

@Linnaeus_Sky My narrator voice has so much fun entertaining herself, you can’t help but be entertained yourself.

@BCAuthor21 Double consonants always trip me up for a second. Ridden, rabbi, compelled, arranged. I always type them correctly out of habit but then I second-guess myself because it looks wrong.

@Demri_18 Thanks! 💚🌱

[Katlyn Roberts @WritesAbroad]

If you’re wondering- it’s never not spot-on, but not always in such an obvious way. Some, you have to read the book to understand. For example, this one made me curious to read. (Ended up being about how I let my concept of reality push me around):

[Katlyn Roberts @WritesAbroad]

I have this thing I do with new books. In place of a bookmark, I draw an archetype card, which gives me guidance for which aspect of this book I need to look out for or which aspect of myself I need to look for in it.
