#WritersCoffeeClub March ~ How do you "stress test" your work?
I change the font to a curly font set at 6pt and let my inner critic Orlando read it.

Please read her work. 💕

"I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naïve or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman."

#WritersCoffeeClub ~ How does your work compare to the earliest work in your genre?
I mostly write CNF. I haven't read any other essay sofa that resembles it in terms of the style. 💕
I would call the CNF I write therefore a trampoline. 🧲

It lights up my morning when I get a reply from a publisher that's not automated fluff. ✨
When finding the one you love, bridge the gap between you with a tender, physical connection. 💝
In case you haven't sensed it in the air today: you are adored, completely and truly. 💫

#ScribesAndMakers - How often do you go to art galleries?
To me it's similar to asking: how often do you go to shops? 🎨

#PhantastikPrompts - How do you create scenes?
I first wait for a full moon. Then I align the thesaurus with the grammar gods. 🥮
Very avant-garde. 💓

Thanks a lot. I normally write my own AltText but some arty abstract photos are too complex and I struggle to depict them accurately.
I'll use it for the next image. :ablobcatrave:

#WritersCoffeeClub - How many works do you have in progress at a time?
A lot. With the one I'm not working on and am procrastinating about, always seems infinitely more brilliant. :woozy_love_letter:

#WordWeavers - If you had to show that a character is a good person within one scene, how would you do it?
I would have the character walk into a room and immediately apologise to the plant there for not watering it the day before. 🪴
Or get the character to have a kitten or puppy, no other action needed. :neocat_astronaut:
