@scraphamster Are they doing the whole dramatic 'flop on side, one leg sticking out' act? Ours are!

@scraphamster @jamie_medhurst @victorianclare I'm writing the final chapters of my novel and it's a struggle on every level! Good luck all :)

[Jack Rendell @jackwrendell]

@mehershiblee I'm glad I'm not the only one! Mine's sprinkled with typos as if they're like hundreds and thousands!

[Jack Rendell @jackwrendell]

Got a few pages of writing done today - on the typewriter, sitting in the treehouse at the bottom of the garden. Canine assistance was very helpful!

@TimClarePoet I love the guinea pig analogy! Especially as someone with 8 Guinea pigs.
When Piggies wheek for snacks, it's exactly like that writing idea that won't go away until you write it down.
Hope the story writing gets easier for you soon :)

[Tim Clare @TimClarePoet]

I see other authors putting together stories piece by piece, just diligently over time, & I regret not checking in with my story brain each day. Creativity is like a guinea pig. It dies unless you feed it. You can't just leave it in its hutch until you decide you want it.

Guinea pigs make everything better!

The Swedish word for bat is ‘fladdermus’, literally ‘flappy mouse’.

[Tim Clare @TimClarePoet]

I have very mixed feelings about people proudly telling the story of how they wrote their novel by getting up 3 hrs early every day before their shitty job for a year, or during the commute every morning, or every evening once the kids were asleep. It normalises hellish overwork.

This is Sisu. He kept breaking into a dollar general to steal this purple unicorn. He tried so often they had to lock the doors and call animal control. Before the responding officer took him to the shelter, she bought it for him. Now he, and the unicorn, have been adopted. 14/10

Galaxy could teach the other piggies a thing or to about not making a fuss during a claw cut. Just focus on the veggies!

Bees had been living in this backyard shed for over two years. The landlord wanted to call an exterminator, but the family who lived here wanted to save the bees so they called me! #savethebees

Guinea pig cuddles!

[Jack Rendell @jackwrendell]

@scraphamster Ours love it too!

[Jack Rendell @jackwrendell]

@HelenMcClory Aargh! It's so hard to pick only 1! I'm currently reading The Once and Future Witches by @AlixEHarrow. The vivid characters and the raw magic of witching are blowing me away and I'm not yet halfway through!

[Jack Rendell @jackwrendell]

@LlamedosCamp Already brainstorming costumes! :)

[Jack Rendell @jackwrendell]

Had an amazing time over the weekend at the virtual Terry Pratchett's Discworld @LlamedosCamp
Hope we'll be able to attend in person next year!
