I just want to say I love writing ❤️❤️❤️ I love the stories I tell and the people I create and who they become. It took so long for me to understand I am a storyteller whether anyone pays me or not. Also I'd like to get paid 🤣😱 #WritingCommunity #amwriting #author #HumpDay

I'm writing minding my business & ask for water. Server hits on me & in my brainwashed patriarchal state I thank him for his unwanted attention. He keeps asking if I'm doing homework & if I'm in school. I list grad years for multiple degrees & he finally walks away #wtf #writing

My mind is full of plot lines, character descriptions, Quince catering menu, Quince dress fitting and Quince planning. But yesterday I discovered Mascarpone on toast. Thank you world for that moment of joy! 😊 #author #WritingCommunity #happy #tuesdaymotivations

The sky isn't helping my mood. Is there such a thing as writing blues? I'm coming down from a writing high & not sure what to do 😭 #Writer #wednesdaythought #WritingCommunity

One day I hope my two competing tendencies- hyper focused vs vegetative TV watching - learn to get along like Annie the Pitbull & Artemis the cat 😸 🐕 #tuesdaymotivations #dogsoftwitter #TuesdayFeeling #CatsOfTwitter

No one told #quince dress shopping was going to be so emotional 😭 & why do they make them look like wedding dresses! Also, Abuelas make everything better. #quinceañera #mom #mexicanproblems

Didn't make it to midnight. I was tired part of learning my y writing craft is knowing when I'll get good words in or get frustrated by brain fog. I formatted manuscript & set up for writing for today. Feeling much better today (sleep!!) #writing #WritingCommnunity #authors
