One of my most motivating mantras right now regarding my writing has come from the pro wrestler @alexhammerstone who said something like "if you don't believe in your own sh** how can you expect anyone else to?" It has changed how I talk about my work to coworkers, strangers, etc

For #writingWednedsay, we're going to be talking about free form poetry! It's my predominant poem form and I want others to love it as much as I do.

Free form poetry is different from most other forms of poetry… https://t.co/2WugMa2GBO

Moleb the Giant is now on Audible (and wherever eBooks are sold)! I wrote it, Jeff Geaghan performed it, and you have extra credits/cash to spend on a new audiobook for these cold, indoor months!

#TipTuesday: Schedule breaks and downtime! If you don't let your brain rest, it'll burn out.
💬 you won't be able to focus
💬 you'll be more stressed
💬 your quality of work will suffer
💬 you won't be as able to retain or remember info

@CarlSmithWriter First drafts are not finished products. You don't look at half-formed clay on the pottery wheel and bemoan that it's not a vase, do you?

Besides, writing is an ever- evolving process. Every piece makes the next one better.

[AMA Creative Solutions @creative_ama]

@CarlSmithWriter I can ask a few of my friends if they'd be willing to help

[Carl D. Smith @carlsmithwriter]

#selfpub writers, especially new ones, rely heavily on their family and friends for sales & marketing. Too much probably. You have to remind yourself just because you write a book it may not be a friend's cup of tea. Thanks to all you long suffering supporters out there!

@lord_lake "Vomit draft" is so tough. I tend to edit mid-draft, too, and it's such a disservice to my narrative.
