Cosplayer and aspiring monster romance writer. Currently hyperfocusing on Gravity Falls. 😂
- Apparently, I was using Quillbot, not Grammarly. I looked into switching, too. Yeah, no... ugh.
- My mum keeps telling me, as soon as I publish my book, to let her know. She plans on telling my entire family so they can buy a copy. Meanwhile, I'm just like, "Please, don't." I don't want my family knowing anything about my depravity. 😂 #writersky #booksky #amwriting
- Grammarly, no joke, suggested I add an em-dash, and I started sweating bullets. Decided to rewrite the sentence instead. I HATE this timeline we live in. 😭 #writersky #writing #amwriting #booksky
- I know I might have mentioned this, but I've been trying to self-publish for probably 9 years now. Every time I think I have something worth publishing, I get crippling anxiety and self sabotage myself. Hence, two hard drive failures and then me just deleting my novella. lol. 🙃
- I need to join a local writing group. My brother read over a couple chapters of the book I'm working on and was incredibly sweet, but I feel a bit discouraged. I used to be praised for my dialogue, and now it seems that's my weakest area. 😭 #writing #amwriting
- My subscribers for my YouTube channel voted on me reacting to "A Serbian Film," and now I'm just traumatized.
- One of my voice actor friends was more than willing to work within my budget for an audiobook. I was under the impression I was offering so little for my it... APPARENTLY, he already voiced a book for $20. WTH?? THAT'S AWFUL!!! 😡 So, yeah, I'm offering WAY more than that so he was happy.
- The glaring extra word I forgot to delete in the first paragraph is giving me anxiety. 😂
- I know I'm a huge perfectionist, but I just deleted a 35k word novella of mine because I just wasn't feeling it. ...Five years of work Hopefully, this next one feels... better. #writing #amwriting
- Guess who just had their entire 4th draft accidentally deleted?? 🤪 Thank goodness I learned my lesson and had a backup. I don't know how I have this extreme amount of bad luck with losing entire iterations of my work. #writingcommunity #writerslife #writer #author #writersky
- I edited two chapters out of my monster romance novella months ago and now I'm going through it and don't know where I placed that draft. If I don't find it soon I'm going to have to start over. I'm so angry at myself!! Why am I so disorganized?? #writingcommunity #writerslife #writersky #author
- Reposted by Vanessa FaulknerI want a horror game that flips the script and lets me be friends with the scary thing. It can still be absolutely horrifying, trying to scare me, but if I don't get scared and bring it treats...I can be its friend. Gimme monster friends that are actually scary. I need them.
- Logged into tiktok and well... yeah... so, hello!! #booksky
- Reposted by Vanessa FaulknerEvery writer knows the struggle: re-reading a sentence 50 times because you can’t decide if it’s genius or garbage. Pro tip: It’s probably genius. 😉
- I really wanted to do rapid releases of books (as in writing 2-4 books a year). I have been absolutely STRUGGLING with this new book though!! This is the fifth book I've written over the course of 17 years. I have no idea how other writers are able to do it! HOW??
- Editing my debut novel for the 4th time and I know there's going to be many, many revisions after this. How many revisions did you do for your book before publication? #writingcommunity #writerslife #amwriting #writer #author #writersky
