This month, I'm participating in #AuthorLifeMonth, a photo-based game in which writers from all walks of life post pictures on Instagram in response to the daily theme. There's a different theme for each day of February. The rules are simple: post your photo and a description and include the hashtag #AuthorLifeMonth. Today is only the third day and I'm already having a lot of fun with it.
The themes are as follows:
Day 1: your books
Day 2: Your author photo
Day 3: Your last 5-star read
Day 4: Your WIP
Day 5: Comp covers (the covers or images that inspired your cover art)
Day 6: Fan art/edit
Day 7: Writing music
Day 8: Awesome moment
Day 9: Challenge overcome
Day 10: Non-author photo
Day 11: A fave review
Day 12: Killed darlings
Day 13: A fave book in genre
Day 14: Fave of your covers
Day 15: Swag
Day 16: Where you write
Day 17: Where you relax
Day 18: Research
Day 19: Your critique partners
Day 20: Fave chapter ending
Day 21: Your muse
Day 22: A dedication page
Day 23: Bucket list item
Day 24: Bucket list item done
Day 25: Pimp a pub-sib (support another author or book published by your same publisher; if you're self-published, just support a fellow author!)
Day 26: A fave book outside genre
Day 27: Your signature
Day 28: Fave event outfit/accessory
And since February has 29 days this year, Day 29 is a free day!
Come join me on this journey throughout the month! Look for my #AuthorLifeMonth posts on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook.
