@thereaIbanksy The story is more complex but perhaps even more beautiful for that. He says the officer saved his life twice: https://t.co/VVWVXv7NPE

BBC News - Hinkley Point deal 'risky and expensive' https://t.co/mi3HGWxKLy

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

Though the word count would've only been a few 1000. Not to worry; July should provide more time for #writing
Let's do this @AurelienLaine!

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

Just come back to Twitter after an extracurricular interlude and spotted this in my timeline. Pretty much sums up what I'd have tweeted https://t.co/2NEoinmIHB

[Aurélien Lainé @AurelienLaine]

Realized I didn't tweet my #wordcount for the past 2 months. Maybe I was too busy, maybe I was ashamed. May 25,788; June 6,726. #amwriting

I'm finally up to date with #thecreativewriterstoolbelt—which I haven't been in so long—just in time for the big #Ep100, @writerstoolbelt!

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

@writerstoolbelt @aptshadow Similarly did @JRHwords in Ep 91, giving great advice on not talking too much about your protagonist's pain, which I'm definitely guilty of!

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

@writerstoolbelt In Ep 93 @aptshadow touched on it: (paraphrased) It's 1 reason modern fantasy has a lot of humour in it; it takes the edge off that darkness

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

@writerstoolbelt Perhaps not. I'd be curious to see a formula, if so, or learn of markers to spot when something is imbalanced. Is this topic episode-worthy?

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

@writerstoolbelt Between sad/happy, tense/light, dark/humorous, brutal/pleasant. I'm sure common sense plays a role here but maybe that balance is objective?

@mariebilodeau Sounds like some dangerous distraction right there. I struggle just ignoring sparrows in the privets!
I'd have had to close the curtains ...

[Ted Inver @tedinver]

@AurelienLaine I read ya. All the best with the daily routine shuffle—which, depending on how it's read, might be something else ...
