#WordWeavers Day 22: What would your antagonist be willing to die for?

In a theoretical sense, Carl Benedict would die for his kids. But not strongly enough to get up and cook them breakfast in the morning because that's not his job.

#PennedPossibilities 993 — As we are approaching Prompt 1000 and there’s been a lot of reflection on this project (for the host, floofpaldi), let’s reflect on our writing journeys, how far we’ve come, friends we made, what we’ve learned along the way, etc.

I've learned that the main impediment to reaching my goals is . . . me. If I don't put in the work, NOTHING happens. If I put in the work and nothing happens, at least I can sleep soundly at night knowing I tried my best.

#ScribesAndMakers April 22. What fictional character (from any media) do you find the scariest?

O'Brien from 1984. Master manipulator.

#WritersCoffeeClub Day 22: What's a writing skill you wish you were better at?

Description in a poetic way. I tend to be very basic in describing sense details. So I have to watch for that in revision.

Perspective Needed, Yet Again

Waking up to truth this morning

#WritersCoffeeClub 21: What's a (maybe silly) hill you're willing to defend?

That writing is worth doing. There are times I have trouble believing it, but I do believe it nonetheless.

#ScribesAndMakers Apr. 21 — You turn a corner on a dimly lit street and see...

I don't walk on dimly lit streets anymore.

#WordWeavers

Apr. 21 Does the change of seasons affect your writing at all? If so, how?

Not really. I am just struggling all the time now.

#PennedPossibilities 992 If your MC unexpectedly died, who would they want to raise their child(ren), if they have any? Have they already made a plan for this in case it happens?

Melissa hopes her mom lives long enough to help Carl get them to college-age.
