Got a teaser trailer for an upcoming game jam game. You play as a cyborg pigeon designed for a single task: humiliate the population. Nothing will stop you from accomplishing your task. Not even a full blown revolution. It's dumb and I love it #indiegame #gamedev #TrailerThursday

You really don't have to #write only about what you know. BUT knowing a little bit about what you're writing definitely won't hurt! Unless it's top secret international espionage. Then there's a good chance you will get hurt. #amwriting #writerslife #WritingCommunity

To become a "Writer," you must: - Write constantly - Finish what you write - Love writing! To NOT become a "Writer," you must: - Put off writing for "later" - Forget what words are - Lfkja;lsdkjflasdjfkiw! #amwriting #writerslife #WritingCommunity

Boiled down to its essence, #writing is: 3% actually writing 96% trying to steer clear of adorable kitten websites while doing "research for the book" 1% sipping tea #amwriting #writerslife #writingCommunity

Try to steer clear of writing the "cautionary tale." It's tough to not come off as overly-preachy! Instead, let the readers uncover their own truths in your work! Keep things subtle and trust in your readers. #amwriting #writerslife #writingCommunity #writing

If you're working through your first draft, don't think too hard about your writing as you're writing! Let go of the need to rationalize this or that. Simply write the story as it goes and let the story grow organically! #amwriting #writerslife #writingCommunity #writing

Commitment leads to habit! Try writing one short story a week. Doesn't matter if it's good - all that matters is that you finish it. A year from now you'll have 52 short stories and I'm sure one or two will even be good enough to send to contests! #amwriting #WritingCommunity

Quantity leads to quality! Write as much as you can, read as much as you can. Continuing to practice your craft is the only way to get better! Keep it up and that book deal is right around the corner! #amwriting #writerslife #writingCommunity #writing

Some writers like to keep little totems nearby to help keep them inspired as they work! Do you? Mine is a cup of tea! Sometimes I forget to drink it, but just having something warm next to me keeps that existential despair at bay. #amwriting #WritingCommnunity #writerslife

Real talk: If you can't make time to #write, no amount of writing advice is going to matter. Our lives are busier than ever - but for a writer, the most important time of the day is taking even 10 minutes to simply write! #amwriting #WritingCommnunity #writerslife

Be sure to enjoy your writing time, even if the writing is incredibly difficult! You're an #author! You have the power to do anything. ANYTHING! If you're finding the writing process to be a joyless endeavor, then do something crazy in your story! #amwriting #writerslife

Don't get discouraged when the words just won't come out. #Writing is supposed to be hard! Even critically acclaimed writers end some days with nothing more than a handful of crumpled pages on the floor and an empty coffee pot. #amwriting #WritingCommnunity #writerslife

Hear me out. This might sound crazy. But read your story to yourself out loud! You'll catch a rhythm to your words and identify weaker parts of your story when bits LITERALLY sound weird! Give it a try. #amwriting #WritingCommnunity #writerslife
