This hilarious narrative about an Alaskan State Trooper who obviously had other aspirations reminded me that @writers in more straight-laced jobs often show signs of the inner writer pushing through. https://infosec.exchange/@nazgul/111093630816222212 What were/are your "tells" in professional and other settings that you're a creative writer? Or are you really good at hiding it, if you feel the need to do so? #WritingCommunity
@CatFoxBirdLady@writers That's the dream, never having to hide it! I never actively concealed anything, exactly, but I did have to present in a certain way and it never quite fit. No longer a problem in my freelance job, fortunately.
Writing a #sciencefantasy book as my first attempt in the genre sure is a tough one so far...but, I am grateful for the challenge ge and growth as well 🙏🏻
I've always felt my spirit animal was a #tortoise for several years. I've owned 2 of them, and they both met untimely ends. However, that hasn't changed the way I feel about myself. So, I wrote about why I feel that way, and perhaps, in my mind, I've already lived as one! Here is my latest article on @medium. Enjoy it for #free!
Poor people probably didn't get a lot of stories published. That's why they don't start: "I was sentenced to three months in the insane asylum for being poor." 🤔
Writing the magazine article on rum that's been kicking about my desk for a while now. It's grown so bitty that I've just shifted over from my usual app (Drafts 5) to Scrivener to help organise my sections and make sense of it all.
Hopefully I can turn it from bits into something more cohesive. It's already helping being able to see it all in one go.
