What is #museinks?
- #museinks is a Twitter hashtag for writers working on projects such as novels and screenplays that require a significant time commitment. This wiki explains Twitter hashtags, how they work, and why they are useful (and fun).
- #museinks is a “slow chat” hashtag (a coffee break type of exchange that you can tune into whenever you please or feel the need).
- The focus of #museinks is: 1) what keeps you pumped about your writing? and, 2) your surefire methods for overcoming writer’s block and/or procrastination .
- Here are some of the things you are invited to share via #museinks: What inspires you to write today, at this moment? Blog posts? Online bios? The accomplishments of fellow writers? Also: quotations or thoughts that keeps you focused on writing . . . tips on writing, overcoming procrastination, setting and meeting goals, staying pumped. And, last but not least, humor related to writing, and sticking to your writing goals.
- The tag is drawn from a play on the words “muse,” “musing,” and “ink” – which somehow seem to belong together!
- It’s a way to take a break from your work, step back from it and refresh your commitment to it.
- It’s a way to connect with other writers.
So consider yourself invited to join in. Post several times a day, week, month or year – it’s up to you. Here’s wishing you happy #musinks!
