Writing a character obsessed with fashion & am currently looking at Gucci fits for inspiration. Love doing research for my writing! #WritingCommunity

Just had a breakthrough w/ my #RomanceWIP! Listened to a new song (https://t.co/RCFHwxsv61) & it helped me figure out a pivotal scene. What music has helped you with your #writing? To celebrate, drop your links for a #writerslift & I'll RT! #WritingCommunity #BookTwitter #Authors

Finally crawling out of the hole that is writer's block. Wishing everyone else the best. Even if it's 5 minutes of writing, 5 new words written, or 5 words revised every bit counts! #WritingCommmunity

@writes_Sabrina @emmaleealagbary @AllyMalinenko Looking to join both a MG & a PB discord. Any invites? My DMs are open! 🙏

Wasn't expecting to spend all morning in the ER but I'm thankfully okay. Can only express gratitude to the doctors/nurses/staff at the hospital. Wishing health & happiness to everyone! 🙏🙏🙏

@mcq_erin Reading out loud has helped me. I also have separate docs for my separate acts so I don't feel overwhelmed by the entire project & I have a note card for each chapter that includes how that chapter moves the plot forward/develops the MCs (or how it should do so). Hope that helps!

I actually have some time this evening to work on my MG WIP but my brain is absolutely stuck on naming the last business I mention in the book before it will allow me to actually write/revise. #WritingProblems

[K. M. @MasticatedMuse]

@StorytellersSK I finally got a chance to sit down and properly read your feedback and am so excited to revise. I just need more time in the day. 😭 Thanks again!

[K. M. @MasticatedMuse]

Thanks so much to @StorytellersSK for the invaluable feedback on my query/10 pages. I'm so excited to dive into your suggestions & start revising! So impressed with your insights & amazed you got back to me so quickly! You really exceeded my expectations--thank you, Kimberly! 🙏

[K. M. @MasticatedMuse]

@Phirah79 @MissDahlELama I totally remember this!

@TheSLWest Welcome! 🤗

[K. M. @MasticatedMuse]

I have a lot of stress in my life right now but this past week has been such a blessing. Trying to focus on gratitude for what I have, rather than worrying about what I lack. 🙏
