It’s been a minute since we’ve had Author Tweets of the Week. (You would think that it would be a weekly feature given the name wouldn’t you?!?) Let’s kick things off on the right foot. A little inspiration for your weekend.

 

Today is the day to start, friends! Sit down today and write. Don’t wait. You don’t have to do it all at once. You don’t need to write everything you’ve ever wanted to write today. Just sit down and spend 30 minutes today. Get in the habit now!

Once you’ve started writing, keep going. Persist!

If you’re looking for a little inspiration to jumpstart your writing, @nkpalgal is exactly right. Music is incredibly powerful. Check out my guest post at Sally Ember’s blog on how music can inspire you to creativity.

 

Love this moment from @lawnrocket! Be like this bird, friends! Keep writing, even through adversity.

 

 

This is funny, and there’s a side of me that says, “Right on! Way to go. Talk to each other!” But if I’m being honest, if I go into a coffee shop and they don’t have WiFi, nine times out of ten I turn right back around and walk to another coffee shop (usually right across the street).

 

 

Great advice from one of the most famous American writers. Fix what you can, don’t worry about what you cannot.

 

Find this person as a writer. Find them a keep them close. If you’re luck enough to have multiple people like this, count your blessings and protect your relationship with them.

 

Shoot your shot, friends. That’s all you can do. If it doesn’t work out, if you miss, that’s okay. It’s all apart of the process. Put yourselves out there and make the glorious mistakes that are uniquely yours. Write your story.

 

Finally, rather than encouragement and inspiration to follow your writing passion to end the week, I leave with inspiration to love more.

For this week’s Tweets of the Week, I’ve decided we will focus on humorous, inspirational, and poignant writing tweets from one of the best #amwriting tweeters in the business: @byMorganWright. For the first time ever, all tweets will be coming from one source. Here we go!

 

If you’re not getting bad reviews, you didn’t try anything interesting. Your writing is probably too blasé. Don’t sweat the bad reviews! (Oh and also, this is a great movie.)

 

Everyone is collective nodding their heads right now.

 

Hahaha! 😂

Haha! 😂

Whaaaaaa waaaaaahhhh! 😭😭😭😭

So true. Is this a bad time to mention that my book of short stories is available?!?

 

The other day my wife complained about how many journals I have around the house, and how most of them only have my scrawled notes on a couple pages. 🤷‍♂️

 

Fun! I love this idea. Quick story time…before my older brother was married and was in the dating world, one of the first dates he loved to do was go to a bookstore after dinner. He would agree with his date that they would both go find a book to gift to each other. He loved doing it and he felt he found out a lot about the other person from that simple experience. So there you go! If you’re looking for a date idea…

 

At first I thought this is really funny and clever, but then I pictured myself in that bookstore. This is annoying! It would be such a pain in the ass to try and find the mystery novel you’ve been searching for!!

Now this one is funny!

 

 

All right, let’s wrap up the week with some inspiration.

This is so true. It is one of the only professions that you can become simply through the act of doing it. The moment you start writing, you are a writer.

 

Make fools of yourselves friends! Be ridiculous! Be weird.

 

I love this. Persistence is one of the best qualities to lead you to success. Stick with it! Continue pursuing your passion.

Let’s kick off this weeks Tweets of the Week with a few from one of my favorite tweeters, @chipmunkofpower, especially when she does the back-and-forth dialogue.

😂😂😂😂

 

@thelaceylondon makes it into Tweets of the Week often, but when she’s pushing tweets like this, you can see why. There’s a lot in her timeline to encourage us as writers and creators. Finish your first draft, then worry about perfecting it.

I am drawn to people like this. I find their passion and focus contagious. Maybe I’m drawn to it because I wish I had more of this in myself. It’s a constant area of work for me.

 

This one made me smile sheepishly. I think I’ve said a different version of this a million times in my 17 years with my better half. “I want to share, I just need you to push a little harder. Oh, not that hard! That’s too much. We’re closed today!”

I’ve learned how to be more vulnerable. It’s a work in progress.

 

 

Sometimes we need care and love. Sometimes we need a kick in the ass. Let this advice from Lauren Beukes be the kick in the pants you need. Finish the book! Don’t make excuses. Write it!

 

 

📕📚❣️💓💗💚

Be grateful for the new day friends. There is so much power in gratitude. More than just a fluffy feeling of giving back. There is growing scientific evidence that gratitude can help you focus and succeed in accomplishing your goals.

 

 

Haha! So true. It never comes out the way we picture it in our mind. Reminds me of writing advice from Ta-Nahisi Coates. This is the plague of every creative-type. The work is never done.

 

 

The only two ways to get better at writing are to write and to read. Work on your craft. Write!

 

 

I loved this tweet that went viral. So cool. Even if it’s fake, which I hope it isn’t, this is straight out of a movie. This couple didn’t meet and get married until years later, but found they were at this monument on the same day at the same time taking a picture years before. Life is fun.

 

I’m not sure exactly what it was about this tweet from @MaraloScott, but it really spoke to me. Something about the earnestness about it. Most people on social meeting push their children in front of us as a way to get compliments about their kids or their parenting skills. It’s transparent and tiresome. This wasn’t that at all. I found this tweet moving and heart warming. 🙏🏽

 

 

https://twitter.com/V8Sheppard/status/974272013006077953

Raise your hand if you know this feeling all too well!

 

 

 

Don’t quit on your passion no matter how many additional peaks you encounter. Continue to create. Continue to write. Persist!

 

Have a wonderful weekend, friends! Keep writing!

It’s been two months since we’ve had Tweets of the Week, so let’s jump right in…

 

https://twitter.com/thelaceylondon/status/962041302186627072

This one is so me! It’s coffee time or wine time when it’s writing time. I’ve given up alcohol for Lent, though, so… pray for me.

 

https://twitter.com/JamesLeeSchmidt/status/961336639057514501

 

I loved @JamesLeeSchmidt’s response here. So true! Why are all of us adults too Stupid?!?

 

These next ones are in a series. I was tagged to share a cover that inspired me without explaining why. Here’s the cover chosen when I was originally tagged, the cover that I chose, and some of the cover responses I received.

I said don’t explain it @williamsbnikki!!!! 😀 🤣

Great covers. Thanks for sharing!

 

 

I enjoyed this next one:

I don’t own a cat, but I know what cat’s are and I know how cat’s be creeping. I love ’em, but this is so true. Made me laugh.

 

These last two tweets seem to be a perfect way to kickoff the weekend.

Be patient with yourselves, friends. Take time with you goals. Take time to create what you need to. Be patient.

 

 

Do what you do because you love it, regardless if others do too. Take heart!

 

Go create, friends! Set your goals. Find your voice and follow it!
