Heyyy #WritingCommnunity here’s a new poem of mine. Just be clear I’m not anti-education by any means, I just wanted to express some of my more negative opinions on some of it. Thanks everyone, stay safe

If anyone wants an inspiring movie to watch, I wholeheartedly recommend “About Time” on Netflix. It’s the only romantic comedy I’ve wanted to watch more than once and one of few I’ve actually enjoyed.What about you, #WritingCommunity what are your favorite hopeful flicks?

Sometimes I wish we could have a little eye for an eye action with these racist cops. Like you shot a man 7 times in the back? Turn around

I wrote over a thousand words today, which I realize isn’t all that much but it’s better than I’ve done in quite a while. Writings been a little slower lately but I’m glad to start making some progress again!

no one: teachers reading Wikipedia:
Twitter is kind of pointless. With 3,400 followers I’m lucky if one person sees a tweet of mine
Outlining is fun, but it takes a long time and it feels less productive than writing more for the actual draft even though it isn’t. Speaking of which I should probably stop tweeting and finish chapter 6

Apparently I’ve had this page for a year now. Thank you so much #WritingCommunity for all of the support, I look forward to the future and getting to know more of you legends even better

#WritingCommunity is blackmail cliche, or does it have potential as a subplot? I want to do it and hopefully in a unique way but I don’t know if it’s taboo or not to be honest

Hooks. Lots of writers think that you only have one hook per novel. This isn't true. Each chapter should have a hook so that you are constantly affirming to the reader their desire to read on. Think of a chapter as if it were a complete story. #writingcommunity

Readers 'skim' what they think is not important. What is important to the writer may not be important to the reader. This is a hard lesson. Sections you labor over may be skimmed by readers. Identify your own skimming habits and highlight these in a book to review later.

Time zones are weird so goodmorning goodnight and good evening guys
My first chapter is now 1,800 words, and I’m pretty excited that it’s more or less full length. I’ve written a lot over the last few years but as a high school freshman this is actually my first full size book chapter. I hope to write several dozen more, and then have a story
