Two weeks of not working on the novel and, now that I'm sitting down to write, my brain thinks it's funny to be like, "What is writing?" 😐
Anyone else jumping back in after a break?

Any other writers out there who are dads? We seem to be a mighty few. 💪
If you’re pioneering a book while deep in the jungles of dad-hood, would love to say hi! 👋

Up against a scene where the easy way out is an exposition dump.
But we are writers. Easy is for everyone else. 🫠

59°F (15°C) in August. A grey, misting rain falls. Petrichor drifts through the open windows on a damp wind.
I'll find the time to write for a bit. 🥰

Scrolling through trying to find a show to watch with my wife, aaaaaand I think HBO Max may wanna revisit this one… 😱
The writing assistant continues his tireless efforts towards the book, examining it from all angles.
Happy #caturday!

Dear future Editing Me,
I deeply apologize for my overuse of the word “only.” I am aware that I’m the problem. However, I will not stop.
Please send snacks,
First Draft Me 🖕

I’m sitting on a scene I’m dying to finish writing while a beloved, out-of-town family member stays at the house for a few days.
