@coloradosprings.bsky.socialMy poems happen organically—during a walk, waking up in the middle of the night, or after an event that stays with me. I record my thoughts immediately or jot them down in my notepad. The shaping and layering often follow hours later, but the core of the concept remains untouched.
@matthewnation.bsky.socialIn case you were curious 😆
@paulinerowson.bsky.socialAuthor Insight: Why I Still Write Everything in Pencil
I still write all my plot lines in pencil.
Because novels change.
Characters change. Plots change. Even murderers and motives can change.
Pencil gives me permission to rethink, redraft and rub things out.
@alethianstrata.bsky.socialI write because the version of me who writes and the version of me who later reads and understands what I've written are not the same.
Writing is the clearest mirror I have for who I am, what I think, what I believe, and what I truly want.
I'm talking to myself. ✒️🪞

@nicolaharrisauthor.bsky.social💙📚💙📚💙The fear shapes how I work. It creates the habit of verifying everything, even the things I already know. It can tip into overthinking, but it also keeps the work honest.

@jdmathes.bsky.social"On Kerouac, On the Road, and On the Writing Process," is a new post up on my website.
@alethianstrata.bsky.socialThe thing I loved about the first draft was that it was concise, easy to follow, atmospheric, and a bit airy.
I was genuinely stunned that I could create that, because I am usually very excited to explain things with as much detail and information as possible... 😂🧵
