Aspiring author and writer of fantasy!https://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3lfe424vm3k2qWow, it’s been a while since I’ve been back on here… Threads was nice for a time, but how quickly they decided it too should be like Twitter, where I deleted my account. I hope this site takes off, but don’t forget, the guy who originally created Twitter came up with this!10 Jan 2025 02:03 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfe424vm3k2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3ks2phuge5d24I know I’ve been quiet on here, but I’m hoping people will help. This link is to help overturn a local council banning books here in Australia. I won’t see that kind of censorship happen here. Please share where you can, copy and paste the link if you like. https://equalityaustralia.org.au/our-work/areas-of-work/cumberland-council/09 May 2024 13:25 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3ks2phuge5d24https://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kmpuzqty3f2iDecided to pop back here now that the floodgates have opened to see what the app is actually like now. That and my Threads feed is one post, then dozens of scantily clad women advertising their onlyfans in the comments. Twitter is a dumpster fire, swirling the drain of its own mediocrity.02 Mar 2024 15:00 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kmpuzqty3f2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kmpu67sjsv2iIt’s 1:27 AM, I’ve just finished my #FuriousFiction submission and after writing a second entry, decided to go back and rewrite the first one. If I get showcased, I’ll post the first draft of it, so folks can see how far this story came. Editing is alchemy! Lead to gold! 😅02 Mar 2024 14:44 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kmpu67sjsv2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kfjfuub7cq2s‘Tis the season! The xmas hat is back and I’m celebrating owning my own small second hand book shop for a whole year! #winning01 Dec 2023 23:16 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kfjfuub7cq2shttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kdnumvefug2rGot my first oral storytelling 1⭐️ review, live too. After explaining away the seagull poo on our car with a whimsical story of a baby pterodactyl who couldn’t hold until he got home, my two year old immediately said: “That was a no good story, Daddy. Never tell it again.” 😭08 Nov 2023 07:00 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kdnumvefug2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kdi33gckpg2a#NaNoWriMo progress is coming along! 20% in 5 days is happy progress!05 Nov 2023 23:40 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kdi33gckpg2ahttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kddjh6tyvk2x#NaNoWriMo is on track thus far and today is excellent!04 Nov 2023 04:14 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kddjh6tyvk2xhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kdahhp3bnh24I wanted to get to 5k, but my brain devolved into a potato around 11:30 pm so I’ll settle with 4166 words after two days of #NaNoWriMo! Also, I have to avoid the temptation to work on it at work. I have enough work to do there… but also… 🤔02 Nov 2023 23:00 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kdahhp3bnh24https://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kd4ybekjsy2bIT BEGINS. #NaNoWriMo01 Nov 2023 13:50 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kd4ybekjsy2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kaiiltfoaj2eExcellent work here! 🎉 [contains quote post or other embedded content]28 Sep 2023 23:26 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3kaiiltfoaj2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3kaiijevhl227Over on hellsite, Orbit posted the below!

Feel free to share this as I’m looking for all my Twitter friends who have made it here!20 Sep 2023 10:12 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3k7syhxaupf2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3k7sxvt6hf72mAs more and more of the #AusWrites crowd come across and hashtags are coming, I’m just getting in early! Folks, it’s so good to get away from that hellsite.20 Sep 2023 10:02 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3k7sxvt6hf72mhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3k7ok37szkh2vWell, that was unexpected. The short story I just wrote for a competition decided it wanted to be told in second person POV. It feels right, but also oh so wrong. Not sure if I should torture my writing group with it… after all they think I should be editing, which is fair. 😬18 Sep 2023 15:43 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3k7ok37szkh2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3k5pk5u7cov2eI have a few days until my fellowship application needs to be in and I’m crippled by self doubt. I have read and reread my letter, synopsis, and first 10 pages that many times I’m going crazy. Tonight I stared at the screen and played with words. I’m going to sleep on it. 😓24 Aug 2023 14:27 +0000at://did:plc:qyfdf4fany3hxigfki4gapuo/app.bsky.feed.post/3k5pk5u7cov2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/thetjedwards.bsky.social/post/3k5ff6fq4xr2sI’ve been rethinking my 1, 2, 5, 10 year goals. Best one for each year: 1 - Finish this rewrite on The Magician’s Curse 2 - Finally Find a Publisher 5 - See the end of this Trilogy Published 10 - Be welcomed to an author panel with @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com anywhere in the world.
