Thank you for your interest in ๐•ญ๐–‘๐–†๐–ˆ๐– ๐•ฒ๐–—๐–†๐–’๐–’๐–†๐–— โ€” itโ€™s been so motivating!
I stole the idea for the opening of my novel from Marie Corelliโ€™s ๐˜ˆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฅ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฉ. It all begins with an avalancheโ€ฆ
Rather apt, especially when I remember that I thought ๐•ญ๐–‘๐–†๐–ˆ๐– ๐•ฒ๐–—๐–†๐–’๐–’๐–†๐–— would grow into no more than a short story.
Iโ€™m now past the 50K mark. I think I have another 18-20K to type up, and Iโ€™m aiming for a final MS of 90-100K. 
Iโ€™ve posted the first few paragraphs in my story highlight, if youโ€™d like to read it.

I had fun putting together this collage sheet with I had fun putting together this collage sheet with Latin language ephemera. Iโ€™ve shared it in the Coterie on my website if youโ€™d like to use it. I thought it might make a nice file folder or TN cover? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ
I love the look and feel of paper. When we were emptying out my parentsโ€™ offices, nothing delighted me more than finding forgotten piles of yellowed copy paper and notepads. I hoard wrinkled tissue paper, and brown paper packaging, and calendar pages. And now, to top it off, Iโ€™ve discovered those tiny little vellum booklets on Aliexpress. Help! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

"Writing has never been work to me, even when it c "Writing has never been work to me, even when it comes out badly, I like the action, the sound of the typer, a way to go. And even when I write badly and it comes back, I look at it and I don't mind too much: I've got a chance to improve. There's the matter of staying with it, tapping away, it seems to keep mending together; the mistakes and the good luck until it sounds and reads and feels better. Not that it's important or not important. Just tap tap tap. Of course, in the typing it's good if something comes along that is interesting to say, and such things don't arrive every day. You've got to wait a couple of days sometimes. And you've got to know that the big boys who have been doing it for centuries really haven't done it too well, even though you have copied from them, couldn't have started at any beginning without them, there's still nothing to owe. So, tap tap tap..." - Charles Bukowski to John Martin (January 3, 1982)
I bought this book for a writer friend, but couldn't resist flipping through it myself. It's a collection of letters that Bukowski sent out over the years, mostly in response to submissions & rejections & (heaven help the recipient) requests for bios to accompany his publications.
I don't know that it will teach you much about writing, but it's definitely a fun insight if you like Bukowski.
๐Ÿ“š Do you have any writing books you'd recommend?
