The End. What better feeling than typing those words at the end of a second draft? #amwriting #amrevising

[Sammi Spizziri @sammispizziri]

There's something thrilling about hitting 70,000 words on a draft. #amwriting #amrevising

4yo (in car): Mom, you're going too fast!
Me: Too fast? I'm going the speed limit. Does it feel fast?
4yo: yes! Slow down!
2yo: you're going too fast!
4yo: it's too fast!
Me (stopping at yellow light): Sorry guys, that was a fast stop.
4yo: We told you you were going too fast. 😏

Mom life thread. I'll post quotes and anecdotes here.

4yo: I can't sleep. I'm too poofed up.

[Sammi Spizziri @sammispizziri]

@mk_pagano I've read enough of your work to know this is simply not possible. 💜

[Sammi Spizziri @sammispizziri]

2yo (wiping dirty hands on the wall): I'm saving trees

[Sammi Spizziri @sammispizziri]

Me: Where are your pajamas?
4yo: My dream wished them off.

I typed THE END on the first first draft I've finished in five years. 🥳 It feels good to finish a story again. Tomorrow's agenda: rewrites. 🤗 #amwriting #WritingCommunity

I'm such a mom of young kids that when I heard Lizzo's "I'ma need like two shots in my cup," my first thought was "of espresso." Because who wouldn't need caffeine to stay up past 8 pm 😆
