‘For a great madness of rage was upon him, so that his eyes shone like the eyes of the Valar. Thus he came alone to Angband’s gates, and he sounded his horn, and smote once more upon the brazen doors, and challenged Morgoth to come forth to single combat. And Morgoth came.’

I’m very uncomfortable writing about food (hate to cook, eat to live), so I’m trying to improve. In the gem workshop, leftovers are vital cuz of the energy Rushak burns there. This is my most sincere try with food to date. It made for an intimate moment for Brother’s Keeper! #WritingPrompt

Finally finished The Jinxed Pirate and omg it was everything I was looking for in Book Two and then some! Walsh introduces some fantastic new characters, Krutch Leeroy has his worst week ever (which is saying a lot), and there was a ton of time w/ my favorite serial killer 😂 #booksky 🪐📚 📚💙

#FantasyIndiesMaytober 30. Stage Brother’s Keeper is in: developmental editing that still resembles carburetor parts spread out all over the garage, kitchen, back porch and driveway. And the Friesian mare in the backyard stepped on some of them.

Bakari & The Outliers coming soon! It was weird revisiting this section––I wrote it last Winter & my approach/style is WILDLY DIFFERENT. 🤯 Found myself shedding tendencies garnered from my history in academia. Had to inject some effervescence & warmth in this bih!! #BlackBookSky #WIPSnips

#WIPSnips #FlashFiction #WriteSky #WritingCommunity Oh gosh, I’m sure there’s a #dude vibe in Brother’s Keeper somewhere (I’ll look) but no way the word! Here’s a scene from a fantasy adjacent story about loneliness, set at a small renfaire.

#WIPSnips I have it in my horsy WIP. Beau and Finn are getting ready to go camping for one night in the mountains, and Finn is not happy to be out of his comfort zone and his English saddle, not to mention scared shitless of his own unruly feelings.

#WIPSnips 5/30 2nd day in a row posting a non-Neverland snippet. This one had to come from my superhero rom-com. We find comics artist & part-time superhero Quinn answering a call at an inopportune moment. #Fantasy #SapphicSuperheroes #WriteSky

kinda spoiler but i also rly like this scene, i think it's sweet and a pivotal moment in their relationship. also i'll take any excuse to write about 🍞 and baking, esp since vampires can't eat and you don't see much food related stuff in #besiegerwip a whole lot of allegory to food/hunger tho 🙂‍↕️🥐🍽️

From Moonfall. I didn't wind up using 'dude' in the final version, but I played around a lot with Virginia's speech patterns, trying to decide how much teenager-speak to give her. (Spoiler: she mostly rolls her eyes and says "whatever" a lot.) #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

In this scene, Scruffy befriends a depressed skeleton. "Fellow" instead of "dude", it was the closest I had! 😅 From an action-comedy novel about the adventures of a girl, a small robot, and the heist crew they call family. #WIPSnips #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #WriteSky 💙📚

#WIPSnips My self-imposed rules prohibit me from using 'dude' or even 'guy', so one of the closest words I can use is 'fellow' or the in-world term 'drook' (derived from the Russian 'drug' but obv I couldn't use that word spelled that way, and I didn't want to copy Clockwork Orange with droog.)

#WIPSnips #amwriting #amquerying #writingcommunity #writers #writesky I have ONE (1) solitary instance of "dude" in all of my wips. Believe it or not, this is from Book 3 of my #Atlantis trilogy. 🤣 I offer zero context for this. Only @khonri.bsky.social knows lol.

#vssfantasy #WritingPrompt A single touch … To put their hand in a hollow tree to be trapped or rewarded. It seems like folly but the heart of the forest is dead. At their touch a strange birth— A wing comes out of the wood with a long stretch and the tree spirits, longing, awaken again.
