#WIPSnips June 1st - Staggered Snippet from Sigils of Redemption (Book 3): My redactions are probably paranoid. Someone who hurt Thalia is asking for her help and she's taking a dangerous chance on helping him. #WIP #Snippet #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #SFF

Maybe this is a bit spoilery...but honestly, maybe not. Either way, I just love this bit between Tennyson and Emmanuel - although Tennyson clearly needs to get out of his own head 😂 From Tennyson's arc of The Atlas Brothers Break the Multiverse #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #AmWriting

Hi, I’m L.M. but Martin or GNU is fine. My WIP is called Tides of Sourcery, for which i have an agent's guide on my pinned post. It's a mix of fantasy genres surrounding the premise of an intergalactic fantasy empire causing the apocalypse and then invading Earth 10 years later #FantasyIndiesJune

Had you made a bet with me that I had today's word, I would have said 'no' and I would have lost. I had TWO! Here's the first one... The #WIPSnips word for June 1 is "stagger" #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

I apparently haven't used stagger once in the first 20k words I've edited and so I present instead: stumbled XD #WritingCommunity #WIPSnips #WriteSky

This is from the opening chapter of my #WIP - the event that is the catalyst for the story. The 'It's' looks like bad grammar, but I promise it's not!!! #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIPSnips

A snippet from Mechanical Advantage, book two of the urban fantasy series Origin Key. Connor tries for the smooth dismount and doesn’t quite pull it off. In his defense, he’s had a hard few days. #amwriting #WIPsnips #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #fantasy 📚💙

No occurrences of ‘stagger’ in ‘The Silence of Numikès’ (Book 6 of The Shattered Moon, due to publish in August), and just one of ‘stumble’. This snippet is from Chapter 33. #wipsnips #books #writing #WriteSky #writingcommunity

#writinglifemonthly #writingcommunity #amediting #amwriting #writesky Not to toot my own horn, but I did incredible this month! Blasted my word count out of the water revising my second draft. 25k new words written, only about 5k words copy pasted from the first draft.

May 31 #WIPsnips – “chance” It’s December 31, 2007, but Jenny’s not thinking about the impending economic apocalypse. She’s wondering: is it wrong to think the guy who just graded my Romantic Poetry exam is hot? (Yes, yes it is.) A snip from my #WIP “Surface Tension.” #amwriting #writesky

In the square, there were people cleaning the rotten vegetation brought by the crowd. Under the gallows was a pair of older men that were loading the two bodies into a cart of hay. Grunt workers often would get chatty and this was likely his best chance. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
