@mattrife They probably don't make them for your level of thigh girth! 😉🙃

Trying on multiple pairs of pants in a store feels like doing 700 burpees for some reason

*NEW #WRITING BLOG POST* Please read & comment. Also, link to video of #writersreading which happened Thursday with some fab writers reading their work. Come join us next time. Links in this post here👇 Thank you so much #writingcommunity #writersoftwitter debbivoisey.co.uk/musings/three-…

Character Challenge for #writers: Write a 100-word scene where your character wants something, almost gets it, then loses it. This simple structure instantly creates tension. #SaturdayChallenge #FlashFiction #WritingExercise #writingcommunity #writersoftwitter

Write five facts about your character that readers will never see in the story. For example, their secret fear, their childhood nickname, the lie they believe about themselves. Hidden details help you write them more truthfully. #FridayFocus #writingcommunity #writersoftwitter

@CsoFringe @hering_david Not genuinely talented writers, no. What's the point? The pleasure is in the creation, and only those who can't create cheat in this way. But of course, it's down to the individual and a lot of people cheat. Human nature.

@hering_david I thought everyone was embracing AI?

Suspicions were raised when the book began with the words “It looks like you’re writing a novel! Would you like help?”

@realPeterCrerar Agreed... unless the character using it is a smartarse, and everyone has to look up all the big words he says. 🙃

If I have to look up the word, I won't use it in my story.

@lmbayley Can't wait! xx

Today!! Hope to see you there! I'll be reading, along with many other fabulous folks!

Think about a character from a book you still remember years later. Why do they stay with you? Is it because they wanted something deeply, they struggled or they changed? Great characters are never static. #ThoughtfulThursday #Storytelling #writingcommunity #writersoftwitter

@meishato Of course!

I want to see something: Should I as a woman be able to get a hysterectomy because of period pain and I don’t want to have a child?

Don't describe a character’s personality, show us their choices. A kind person gives away the last slice of cake. A jealous person counts how many slices everyone else took. Novel Course £150 tickettailor.com/events/dublinw… #WednesdayWriting #AmWriting #writingcommunity #writersoftwitter

@SouthernCazza1 @Claudettestea I agree. I hate how all issues are ended with death! Even for Theo I hope they show there are other ways than ending him. We will see, but the script writers are always stuck on the same tracks! 🙄

@Claudettestea I'll be gutted if it's Megan. I want her to see justice dealt. After all we know that there's been at least one victim before Will. She's abusing Sam too now also. She needs prison. Death is letting her off #Corrie

Will and Megan’s indecent relationship was revealed on bonfire night in a scene with fireworks And what did the flashforward scene have - Fireworks Ladies and gentlemen, Megan Walsh is Dead! #Corrie

#corrie Megan will be the next cast member in prison with any luck, if they get her before she runs. 😐

@GregBaldwinIroh Butter and Marmite (not too much, it is not peanut butter or Nutella) on the toast - chef's kiss!

British blokes…. I’ve purchased several “tins” of Heinz (British) beans because the idea of beans on toast intrigues me. I eagerly anticipate a tasting. Other than toasting bread and heating beans… Are there any other steps/ingredients?

Quick #writingtip: Give your character conflicting desires: e.g.They want independence, but also approval. Conflict in the character creates the most powerful scenes. What is one internal conflict your character faces? #TipTuesday #AmWriting #writingcommunity #writersoftwitter

Characters come alive when they want something badly enough. Ask yourself: What does my character want right now? What stands in their way? What will they risk to get it? debbivoisey.co.uk #MotivationMonday #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #CharacterCraft #writersoftwitter
