Turns out page 25 is right where the first fight scene starts, and the first time we get to see magic used for violence instead of utility #writing #writersky #theSoulofWar #amquerying

"it must be nice to be a man and make boring music just because you can now don't get me wrong, I'm a fan you're my second favorite frontman" Such an insane line, the new Florence material is giving me life

Nameless Vampire WIP has a romance between our lead, Tilda the barmaid, and her lovely friend Millie the bookbinder. Or it will once I write it, it's just in the outline rn The vampire isn't involved in the romance because he's 200 and that's weird 🙃

Was a big AC fan back in the day, and I always thought Black Flag was where they totally lost the plot on the modern-day stuff 1-3 had a story and character throughlines. Then 3 killed Desmond for some goddamn reason, and they never knew what to do after that Black Flag is better off without it

Recent reads: Alchemy and a Cup of Tea by Rebecca Thorne - an excellent conclusion to the cozy Tomes & Tea quartet, has all the drama and wholesomeness the series excels at, 5⭐ Tears of the Maelstrom by Timothy Wolff - this trilogy started good but here it got great, already started book 3, 5⭐

100% worth it, even if it wasn't free

"Not now I'm #writing"

I'm planning on actually sharing my work again, so before I post my website up here I'll say this: None of my work was done using AI. Not for writing, editing, or proofreading. I'm 100% natty #writers #writersky

Recent reads: Platinum Tinted Darkness - Enjoyed it! Def stayed for the characters, charming little dudes right there, 4💫 Starter Villain - laughed more than once, fun plot and characters, 5💫

Every Thursday

From the unpublished short story "Daughter", inspired by Cassandra by Florence + the Machine Would you turn into a monster for revenge? This girl would Transcription in alt text

Had this one preordered, can't wait to read! Only downside is I just started Starter Villain soooooo 😬

Christoph Waltz instantly makes whatever he's in twice as good

This is something I actually have outlined (even if I'm not actually following the prompt) In the culture of the Silvered Plains, the dominant religion is not theistic/god-worshipping, rather they espouse a zodiac of 8 Virtues, each represented by a constellation and associated animal symbol

And here it is! The cover to my upcoming WIP, The Chosen One Con, about a contest of celebrity mages to find a prophesied chosen one... or is it all just an excuse for some TV to distract the masses from rebellion? Many thanks to Jamedi for hosting! Please check out his blog!

We're trying to figure out how many ads I have to block before Google gets the picture that I *really* don't care about Javvy coffee It's been at least 12

Or be like me, and tweet at the author that you're eagerly waiting for book 2/3/5 🔥

If post-apoc eldritch sci-fantasy sounds at all appealing, give these a read. And the author's other stuff too, he's one of my favorite finds in the past few years

I haven't looked too closely at this woman's chin but I hope it's Brie Larsen just because that would be the funniest possible casting for Supergirl

The unification of the various tribes of the Silvered Planes into a single (precarious) empire Between fighting each other and their effective use of their Infusor mages, they're already the most militarily advanced, now they're a menace to the surrounding nations

This is the face of a child who got caught destroying the blinds Her defense it "I didn't do it" and ngl it's pretty airtight #catsky

Last week I finished The Cruel Gods trilogy by @trudieskies.readindiefantasy.com What an intense, heartbreaking ride, with an absolutely insane ending. I've rarely been so simultaneously frustrated with, and enamored by, characters like Kayl and Quen. Looking forward to reading more! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'll buy a french bread (usually to go with something I cook, but not always) and tear off a chunk to eat plain as a snack One time I paired this with a cheese stick and my wife told me I eat like a medieval peasant

No bingo, but got majority, that's good right? for The Soul of War, the epic fantasy I'm querying #writersky

An actual picture from my current WIP notes Yes, I am productive (sarcasm)

Halfling Wizard, Order of Scribes Halfling is mostly for backstory/flavor, but rerolling 1s is always great. Turns out Scribes Wizards just turn your wizardyness up to 11 so been having a great time there

I post this in my party's discord every time someone mentions rolling a 1

Technically the 3rd POV character is an antagonist 👀 Realistically, among the 6-person team chasing our intrepid MC, only the leader is a "villain." The rest are just soldiers, chasing someone they think is a dangerous traitor (they're mostly right tbh)

I remember mostly because my ideas are simple as: DnD character backstory What if a sword could talk Scene of a vampire hunter but it's a bait & switch and the vampire is the protag

Misunderstanding/misheard conversation (this is the worst part of Shrek) Also "this guy is super evil so to make sure you know he's evil we made him a sex criminal"

Me and my wife except it's me yapping about fantasy books and random video games and her yapping about art community stuff and other random video games

It's Friday 13th. Buy a book with thirteen in it. mybook.to/TheThirteent...

Helfnir is 100% asking Rhea, he assumes she's had to do this before Tilda just made "friends" with a vampire. She'd hate herself, but would have no idea who else to ask

I put words down for the first time in a bit over the weekend. It wasn't much, but I changed and then finished the chapter I'd left hanging this whole time We've left a placeholder for the next chapter

Tech (and therefore warfare) is largely tied to the history of an area, as well as its preference toward different societal species and breeds of magic users Pashne is a small human country in the middle of a swamp. They have no military, and you're hard pressed to find a weapon that's not just/

The squad (Vries, Rhea, Odom, Ried) found our intrepid MC (Helfnir) dying in an abandoned house in the middle of the swamp He got better (he was dead af if they didn't show up)

"Cassandra" by Florence + the Machine inspired a short story. The title, "Daughter" makes way more sense in context of the song than the story itself

I got to see them twice when I was younger, but man what I wouldn't give to see Rush again RIP Professor, it was marvelous to watch you work

One of my favorite parts of cozy fantasy is stakes creep Yes we started off just wanting to run a cafe in the countryside, but really how can we help wanting to fight dragons and overthrow tyrants? They draw me in with these characters and their simple desires, and now I'll watch them do anything

This if me & Rye if I ever get famous

Somebody got let go at work and wife's response was "don't get fired... or do, and go work for (old company) again" Idk why but this feels like the ultimate show of support ❤️

I haven't watched Andor, but I've watched "I'm Han Solo" 100 times and you should too

I read the first one of these and it was hella good (already bought the 2nd!)

If I had to pick a perfect joke from a movie it might just be this one

1. this barbeque place in Broussard, LA that I went to once. Place was dead quiet, we sat at the bar and chatted with the owner, the food was delicious. Place closed soon after 2. Taco Bell's Triple Steak Stack. Best thing that's ever been on their menu Also being able to eat at T bell for $6

The city of Fannyl is built into the side of the valley, and that valley is the staging ground for the siege that occupies the last 60% of the book From The Soul of War
