Authors, how’s your WIP going?
Are you still in the planning stage, halfway through the draft, or finally seeing the ending?

Sadly, we lost Jerry today. At nearly 22 years old he had done phenomenally well, but it's still sad to see him go. #authorlife
I love hearing about unfinished projects just as much as completed books. There’s something exciting about seeing a story take shape from an idea into a full manuscript.
What are you currently writing?

If you’ve recently finished a first draft, congratulations. Getting to the end is an achievement in itself. What comes next for you: revisions, developmental editing, or beta readers?

The last time I had professional author photos taken was 16 years ago!!!
These photos came out great, thanks to the skills of my friend (actor and photographer Jackson Beals), but still… might be time for a new set of author headshots! #writingcommunity

"We don’t need to be persuaded; we want to be provoked." - Adam Gopnik, "Faking It", NYR, 5/10/26
"He said there is a real interest in Sydney's gay scene from the 90s and this scene highlighting changes in Australian politics seems out of place." lttr.ai/AtN32
Some days, you can create a whole universe, families of characters + backstories, plots upon subplots, and the history of the world.
Other days: words are hard.
Today has been the latter.
