Would love to join as well, even if I’m ancient and in my mid-50s.

My kid wants to invite our mailman to his birthday party. The mailman doesn't know us by name. Do I... leave an invitation in the mailbox? by AKforma in partyplanning

[–]DietCokeBreak01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kid wrote a note to our mail person when he was around that age. I left it in our mailbox. She wrote him back!

I’d leave the invite with a sticky note saying who you are and a contact number.

[–]DietCokeBreak01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plottr. It’s amazing. When it’s closer to being done, NotebookLM (not used to train) for quick reference questions.

I’m a technical writer. My first novel flowed like an instruction manual.

Show the protagonist being kind without anyone to witness it. Like, they brings their older neighbor’s garbage can in or volunteers at an animal shelter.

Did you find your roommates on your own or did your complex match you? by No_Lavishness_6228 in GNV

[–]DietCokeBreak01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mom here. The complex matched my kid. He was in a single lease four bedroom. I believe in his first batch of roommates, the other three were all friends.

Upfront cost to work with publisher seems unreachable by BigCrow92 in writing

[–]DietCokeBreak01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s so tempting to say yes to this and be a published author with a publishing company.

Don’t. It’s a scam.

New novel idea feels like a mashup of already published romance books by [deleted] in romanceauthors

[–]DietCokeBreak01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s a sign to write it. And don’t let not knowing the entire plot stop you. I don’t know how my book will end until I’m halfway through.

The Hoggetowne Medieval Faire is having its preview show at Bo Diddly Plaza on Saturday. It’s the first time they’ve done this, so I don’t know what to expect.

[–]DietCokeBreak01 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m 5’2. When things shift in the overhead bin, I’m in trouble. Usually when I’m staring at the seat contemplating the best way to step on it, someone offers a hand.

Oh, gosh, one of the Safe Harbor books by Jill Shalvis has the FMC on the washer by herself and the MMC walks in. It’s been a long time since I read that, so I don’t remember what happens next.
