Great advice on what to avoid when writing queries!

[Chronically Writing @chronicwriting]

I can’t explain the absolute despair I felt when these symptoms came back. I have all these other #EDS problems to deal with now... how can I deal with this again? I know I can and I will. But right now? I feel sad and bone tired. #chronicillness

I was wrong. I started having vision problems again about a month ago, and I swore I saw my eyes cross in the mirror yesterday. I’m back at my eye doctor today and so anxious I feel like I could be sick.

I have strabismus surgery on both my eyes in 2015. Slowly since then I started showing more and more physical symptoms of EDS, but wasn’t diagnosised until early this year. However, I always reassured myself that at least my eye issues were done.

Do you ever have something that you thought you had “corrected” from your chronic illness and then it just comes back a few years later and rears it’s ugly head?

Do you ever get a little worried when you DON'T get your regular symptoms?

Like, what kind of sneaky business is my body doing now 👀

Finally watched last week’s @The100TV episode. #spoilers Thoughts: I’m excited for this new planet, mad that Shaw died, and wish Kane would have died.

This season on #The100

[Chronically Writing @chronicwriting]

I’m frantically watching the last season of #the100 but I don’t think I’m going to be caught up by tonight :( LIVE TWEETS tomorrow, folks

IT’S SHOW DAY #The100

[Chronically Writing @chronicwriting]

Today is the day I finally got my EDS diagnosis. #chronicillness #isabitch

Sometimes #editing a page takes fives minutes ... sometimes it takes an hour.

Can you guess which way my Tuesday started off with?

Incredible thread on how to write (or edit) a fight scene! #editing

As for the ending ... it was WAY too rushed. A writer has a responsibility to help the viewer deal with the emotions you just put them through in the climax of the story. #NetflixIO really fell short here. The catharsis was never finished, so the movie felt unfinished.

[Chronically Writing @chronicwriting]

Watched #NetflixIO this week and it honestly felt like they took the main points from @The100TV and made it into a movie ... except it got less done in 1.5 hours than #the100 gets done in one episode.

I honestly enjoyed that Sam had such a passion for art, but I felt like it needed to be tied into the main storyline more than it was. As is, it felt forced—simply one of the only reasons Sam and Micah spoke to each other. #NetflixIO

Only took me 22 days into the 2019 to get back to my regularly scheduled programming. Aka tweeting about tv shows, movies, and books.

Me @ myself:

I can't tell if the news of @WildpipM directing an episode of @The100TV makes the wait for season 6 better or worse... #The100

[Jason Rothenberg @JRothenbergTV]

I can honesty say, having watched all the dailies, that putting a camera in @wildpipM’s hands was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Can’t wait for you all to see the season and this episode! #The100
