Do you think writing is its own reward, or do you have to get paid for it to be rewarding?
Me? Writing is the reward. Everything that comes afterward is just icing on the cake.

#PNW #Writer. I write about everyday people and their lives, including their struggles, successes or tragedies. There are no boring stories.

@NatalieKelda I'm actually not sure if I do? One of the things I've done is go paragraph by paragraph and rewrite them, then redraft the whole thing. So.... maybe that?
English
Do you have any personal rules of thumb when it comes to editing?
E.g. I won't touch a first draft until it has sat for 6+ months and I've written a novel's worth of new words on other projects(this is bc I've then learned enough my edits are more effective)

@LynnSosnoskie Woo! Oregon State! My alma mater. Do you know who will be doing the research at OSU?

This is $50,000 for our team to:
1) Meet with technology sector representatives to understand current state of technology,
2) Disseminate this info to stakeholders via extension presentations,
3) Survey growers about interests and concerns,
4) Prepare full research grant (2026).

It’s been announced. We (Cornell, Rutgers, WSU, Arkansas, Purdue, UC Davis, Oregon State) have received an SCRI planning grant to determine growers interest in novel weed control technology in perennial crops and identify the barriers to/drivers of grower adoption.

@NatalieKelda Hemingway would like a word....
But really, I'm reading a book with a collection of Hemingway short stories, and some of the paragraphs (AND sentences) are looooooonnngg.

The issue is the paragraph length. That woman doesn't "hate reading". If your paragraph is as long as she indicates, you need to go back to formatting 101.
Longer paragraphs encourages readers to skim and reduces readability. There have been many, many sudies showing this.

SURELY NOT?? how are you skipping paragraphs while reading?? you might miss important things 😭

You've seen the 6 book covers that didn't make it... so time to reveal the one that did.
Here it is. The final version. What do you think? Did we make a good choice?

@brclothwrites Oh yes. As a Christian, we are commanded to forgive others as Christ forgave us.

Is it possible to truly forgive someone without forgetting what they did?

I’ve been largely housebound for the last decade with panic attacks. My anxiety has been a lifelong struggle.
It’s not always easy every day, but the fight is worth it. You’re worth it. 🫶
Please know you’re never alone. Take care today! 🤗

@authorjla In all seriousness; I despise piracy, and Amazon's return policy is garbage, from what little I understand of it. Unfortunately, artists are rarely fairly compensated.

@authorjla We..... We do? Is that like this "sleep" thing I keep hearing about?

From the heart, this is all 100% true.
From the brain: Chasing publishing trends is pointless. Books take two years to publish, so by the time your trend-chaser hits shelves, it could be out of fashion, anyway.
Don't follow trends. Set them.

If you feel that inner fire compelling you to tell this story, if it's in your brain and it's itching to come out, write it. Don't worry about whether it's going to be "publishable." Don't worry about whether anyone's ever going to read it. Write it for yourself first.

@JessGraceWrites just a gay character..... Does that make sense?
English
@JessGraceWrites character because he was gay; he was a great character because he broke the German enigma code and had to live with those consequences. While that does NOT justify what the English govt. did to him by any means, I'm saying he is a well-written character who is gay, rather than...
