Just like the original game, the stupid orange piece comes one right after the other, and I have nowhere to put them. I think I may suck more at Adultris than the original game. https://t.co/hvY0MMdtwh

can we talk about how cute this idea for a habit tracker is?

Taking a night off and watching the Phillies with my dad. Gotta come out of the writing cave sometimes.

No, I don’t have my phone out to take notes on my WIP. (I so do.)

If you are writing a character with PTSD, author @LovettRomance shares her personal battle. Inspirations and insightful. https://t.co/E0VCWO3BH9

[Robin Lovett🔥👽❤️ @LovettRomance]

I'm gonna do another #PTSDAwareness thread and it's a good day for me to talk about hypervigilance--what that is, what it looks like and feels like to experience.

A lot of writers write characters who've been through traumatic situations and this is very common post-trauma

[Erika M. A. Timar @EMATimar]

@LovettRomance Thanks for sharing your experiences. You should be proud of the step you are taking today. Sending extra positive thoughts your way.

[Erika M. A. Timar @EMATimar]

Even though it was off #FolkloreThursday theme I wanted to share @LaidleeAine’s art. It is a wonderful depiction of this Norse goddess of lust, beauty, sorcery, fertility, gold, war and death.

[Erika M. A. Timar @EMATimar]

A passionate seeker of pleasure and thrills, Freya was the “party girl” of the Æsir.
A practitioner of seiðr capable of changing destiny and a expert manipulator of the desires, health, and prosperity of others, a wise man (or god) would want Freya on his side.
