#FantasyIndiesMaytober 22 Monsters (ours included) have long been used as an allegory for otherness in storytelling, which is why a lot of people look to monsters as relatable and a comfort. We're looking at hard topics in our current world and telling it through a lens that is easier to —(1/2)

#QueerPrompts May 22 -- Queer leaders in your story Acanthus is one, and Azalea in some fashions. Cypress, after a spell. Other than that, our story is real-world adjacent so any queer leaders that exist in real life, exist in the novel. #tftng #lemonbalm #queerwriters @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#WIPSnips Prophet. There's not mentions of prophets in the WIP, but Acanthus is a strategist, so this has the vibe of looking to the future. #writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompts @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#FantasyIndiesMaytober 21 Anya's main goal is to keep things the same — Vampires classified as a dangerous monster in the World of Shadows and hunted to (the brink of) extinction, Wolves at the top of the food chain, and Witches forced to help the Wolves for "protection". @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#QueerPrompts 21 — Cypress isn't taken seriously by anyone, really, in Lemon Balm. They're written off a lot. Acanthus, however, has a ton of respect in 95% of spaces. #writingcommunity #queerwriters #tftng #lemonbalm @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#fantasyindiesmaytober 20 Anya depends on her pack, in such a way that authority cannot be questioned in her mind. She relies on the other members of the Big Five to uphold her authority as one of the strongest Alphas. #tftng #lemonbalm #writesky #queerwriters @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#QueerPrompts May 20 Depends on what the villain has done and why. If they're morally gray in a way that makes sense if you squint, then sure, redeem them. But, if they're irredeemable, then I love to squash them. It's cathartic. #writesky #queerwriters #tftng #lemonbalm @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#QueerPrompts 18 and 19 18 — Our world is real-world adjacent and the World of Shadows is hidden from human eyes, so it'd just like a normal museum exhibit. 19 — I don't necessarily think we have any agender characters. Abyss may be agender, but she's newer to me; I haven't thought enough — (1/2)

I spent the weekend dissociating into Balatro but I'm back! #FantasyIndiesMaytober 18 and 19 — In Lemon Balm, there are many moments of failure. The main one, I think, is when Cypress isn't quite fast enough to warn Acanthus about approaching Hunters. This is also a scary moment in the WIP. (1/2)

#fantasyindiesmaytober 17 Arturous narrowed his eyes, a thinly veiled anger making him set his shoulders up high. "This is a place of peace, but not by choice. You'd do well to remember that, Acanthus. It wasn't so long ago that you were ready for war." #writesky #tftng @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#queerprompts May 17: Do your characters confront homophobia, transphobia, or biphobia? Cypress does. One of their "friends" dial in fiercely on masc pronouns when he comes out as nonbinary. Cypress doesn't mind masculine pronouns, but Junior's malicious. #writesky #tftng @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#queerwriterschat Cypress' POV Despite the black outs and lapses in memory, I did my best to keep to my routine and work schedule around the medical appointments; distracted, exhausted, and in a fog most of the time. #writesky #queerwriters @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#queerwriterschat Absolutely. Acanthus is constantly thinking of the past, stuck in memories, and tangents. I use flashbacks a lot with their POV. #writesky #queerwriters @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#QueerWritersChat #writesky #writingcommunity #queerwriters @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social Acanthus' favorite memory in Lemon Balm is probably when they bring Cypress to meet Azalea for the first time, despite the direction circumstances.

I lost track of time, #QueerWritersChat! Nice to meet you, I'm Vamp and I'm working with @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social on a Lemon Balm, a book about vampires, werewolves, & witches, of all orientations& genders, navigating through life and finding themselves in the process. And dealing with scary change.

#FantasyIndiesMaytober 16 A recent 5-star read is Don't Let The Forest In by CG Drews. One of my favorite things about horror is how surreal you can get with the descriptions, and the botanical horror descriptions in this book are chef's kiss @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social

#QueerPrompts May 15: What would your character(s) say makes a family? Acanthus would say that a family is composed of people that you can rely on at any time of the day or night. Cypress would probably say the people that you love and want around you are family. #tftng #lemonbalm #writesky

#fantasyindiesmaytober 15 Out of those four, I think a TV show would be what I'd like to see. Especially if it was animated with 2D animation. @lyfeisgr8.bsky.social #writesky #writingcommunity #tftng #lemonbalm
