I've sent my latest revised novel to 11 readers, including 4 YA aged folx. Now I need to work on something else so my anxiety doesn't shred me. I've got a short story that looks promising. #writerlife #author #amwriting #amwaiting

Reskeet how old you are using a vague proxy: Mom came and got me from school when 9/11 happened.

On the downside, I had a big gap in my sleep last night. On the plus side, I had the answers to several story questions I'd been mulling over, caught them on my phones text app. So net positive. #writerslife #writingcommunity #amwriting

First line of my YA coming-of-age murder mystery.. EJ Temple pedaled hard, wishing they could ride away from their anger and frustration. She could at least try, EJ thought, tears welling up. It’s like I’m not important enough to even attempt using my pronouns. #writingcommunity

I get the cast of Slow Horses. There may be mistakes along the way ... definitely mistakes... and I think I'll be OK.

My partner has been asking me to shave off my mustache off and on for ages. I did it today as a gift for their 50th. The reaction I got from them has me thinking about keeping it off for a while. Reaction being they wanted to immediately 'hop on pop' ;) What do yall think?

Scarlateen is a reliable source of factual information about many topics. It has been particularly essential for young people exploring their sexuality and identity. Please help them if you can.
