Welcome to Litsy!

Back on the writing wagon with this rad new notebook! Also, pretty sure “Just a Phase” would be a great title for a sitcom about queer werewolves.

I like Dani Shapiro, really relate to her on different levels, and plan to read her other books that I have not read. However, I found this one to be mediocre for me. She was repetitive in a number of essays which comprised this book which left me wanting more. I think it‘s worth a read though for those interested in writers and writing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fill your ears with the music of good sentences. Reading great work is exhilarating.

I'm taking my time with this one; it has some real gems. 📖

So I definitely shouldn‘t buy a bottle of wine based entirely on the label, right?

Continuing to make my journaling corner more inspiring.

Still Writing inspired me to finally set up the journaling corner I‘ve been wanting.

My next read. And my pen chaser.

Although I planned on binge reading all day with a puppy by my side, on a whim I decided to use a few more of my gift certificates won on Indie Bookstore Day- and one of my stops was in the town in CT which is basically Stars Hollow and has a BEAUTIFUL book shop.

Ended up spending more time/money than I‘d anticipated but I‘m really really glad. It‘s exactly the Saturday I needed this week! More stacks & pics to come. #bookhaul

Trying to get some writing done at the local watering hole. And kick my loneliness. And ease the adrenaline rush of a 9 hour rehearsal today.

“Death found an author writing his life,
but he let him write no further;
For Death who strikes whenever he likes,
Is jealous of all Self-Murther.”

December, 1827

It‘s almost 3am here and I have had too much caffeine. At least I‘m being productive with it?

I‘m reading this inspiring book with my coffee this morning! The best start to a morning writing session I can think of. Now off to work on Emmy Nation 2. #emmynationbooks #writinginspiration #stillwriting

Does anyone else ever get that guilt where they feel like they should be writing (or anything really) but can‘t bring themselves to do it and so don‘t do anything else either? I could at least be reading but instead I‘m staring at the wall.

I‘ve been doing morning pages for just over six months now. My words are starting to get a bit stale so I‘m rereading books about writing to see if I can shake things up a bit.

Writing books I own but haven't read. #nonficnov

A thoughtful gift from a friend... I love #thewritinglife

Loving the balance of my reading list right now. I little work related with the #emmynationbooks, a little #writinginspiration from Dani Shapiro and one of my #favouriteauthors with Britt-Marie Was Here 💜💜📚📚

I'm so glad I own this book because I might need to keep reading it for the rest of my life.

Found this journal- felt very appropriate 😂😂😂
