The fun part of writing #historicalfiction: research. Also, trying to get a photo before my #cat Mirri knocks over all the books. This one is going to be a #renaissance #crimenovel set at the papal court of Alexander VI Borgia #noir with a physician as the unwilling hero.

Maybe this is a stretch because the statue has a name plaque, but Pica doesn't need to look at it. ✨Vibes?✨ From Royal Magpie's Lament #WIPSnips #amwriting #writingcommunity #writingprompts #queerwriters #transwriters

I was going to write this word in today’s session, but I thought I’d go for the synonym instead. From “Holo-Mon: Beast/Bird”. #WiPSnips

@octopus.energy "while you're waiting for an agent to assist, we have some music we think you'll like..." Skirling is a word that most of us get to use maybe a dozen times in our lives. It's what bagpipes do, when they're playing Amazing Grace. Fortunately, the agent answered after <8 bars. 😱

So who might my readers be for Teardown? Well, it's about a band, and music. So if you liked Daisy Jones and the Six, or Espedair Street, then it might be for you 1/
