Inspiration can come from anywhere when you're writing. If you're taking a trip to a new city or a new country, or if you're just watching some fireworks, make sure to write down what you see and how it makes you feel--it might end up being useful.

Stop worrying if anyone will ever love your story, and just write. Every story you love began as a terrible first draft

You are not the same writer you were five years ago or the same one you will be five years from now. That's a good thing! Change is inevitable as you learn and grow and develop your craft. There's always more to think about as a writer.

Days like today, I’m grateful for the fury, the ferocity, the fantastic words from self-identifying women, trans, & non-binary writers that I had the chance to collect in THE ELPIS LETTERS. I hope you’ll add this book and its sister, THE ELPIS PAGES, to your shelves today.

Keep writing! Every moment you find to write is a little beacon of light in a strange and uncertain world. Not everything you write will be perfect, but it will all be an expression of life and curiosity and imagination.

No, you're not a bad writer. Writing is incredibly difficult, and most people give up. But you're still here. You're still putting words on the page, and that is proof you will be an amazing writer one day.

“It’d be easier to make something out of the stars, reconstellate for a fate we deserve.” -Kayla King ✨ Though my mini writing retreat started with my laptop at 16% battery life and no charger, I still managed to make the most of this weekend.

You're definitely a writer. Look how frighteningly far you've managed to drag yourself into this obscure niche of social media where everyone is screaming and fighting existentially with each other and calling it art. Look at me I made a trash kingdom of Taco Bell wrappers!
