Back on BlueSky after a lot of life went down

Hey I’m not dead! What’s Bluesky been up to lately?

Freshly moved and trying the new places! Also face reveal I guess lol

How I arrived on BlueSky

(1/2) I just saw the start of the Gaslight District’s pilot episode. It looks nice, but I do have to admit its premise has a lot of parallels to Graveyard Gretel. #writingcommunity #Artsky #Glitch #GaslightDistrict #GraveyardGretel

Every book is a self-help book if you overthink it enough #writingcommunity #booksky

Me: Eats literal dirt Me: Experiencing SYMPTOMS Me: Goes to Doc Doc: You’re probably gonna die lol Me: :O

Looking for Beta Readers! My 57K fantasy horror choose-your-own-adventure book Graveyard Gretel is ready for some feedback. (1/2) #WritingCommunity #BetaReader #Betareading #Fantasy #Horror

Samurai Jack meets a Weeping Angel #CartoonNetwork #DoctorWho #SamuraiJack #Samurai #Horror #WeepingAngel

The Balrog Durin’s Bane went on a fiery rampage because he wanted to sleep forever and people kept waking him up. I’m not going to say he was in the right, but I get it. #lordoftherings #lotr #sleep #tired

That moment when you realize dwarves being dwarves, grunts are about the size of a Shetland pony which means praetorians are only about as large as a horse. #deeprockgalactic #rockandstone

Me: “You like music?” Complete stranger: “Um” Me: *Screams at the top of my lungs”

Where do y’all go to for beta readers and editors? I’ve been burned by Fiverr before and am looking for alternatives #writingcommunity #author #writer #booksky

God, I love messy outlines. Give me scribbled notes, haphazard doc formats, and a quilt of 30 different trains of thought all slapped together with duct tape and glue. #writer #writingcommunity #writesky #Booksky #Author

Be honest. Have elves become cliche? #writesky #writingcommunity #booksky #writer #author

I’m debating if I should add illustrations to my book. They’d mainly be sketches of characters when they show up. Does anyone have positive or negative experiences when adding illustrations? Have your readers gotten anything out of it? #writingcommunity #booksky #amwriting #artsky #writer

Friends, life is full of missed opportunities. We’ll spot some and make others, but most pass us by in fleeting moments like dandelions in the wind. Don’t be afraid to miss opportunities. Wish them well and cherish the ones you catch. #author #writingcommunity #artsky #artist

Currently proofreading my 1st draft of Graveyard Gretel! I’ve never done a book quite lime this one, so I’m quite curious to see what people think of it! #amwriting #writingcommunity #writesky #writer #author

There’s something especially heartbreaking about a little girl trying to console someone who’s lost everything #writingcommunity #snippetshare #amwriting

I’m just now hearing about Substack. Thoughts on it? Is it basically Patreon 2.0 or something different? #writingcommunity #writer #author

A chance for Gretel to have a very interesting day. #wipsnips #snippetshare #amwriting #writingcommunity

There’s nothing quite like the eureka moment when you figure out a broken story’s issue and everything clicks into place. Thats the good shit. #author #writingcommunity #booksky

wtf Pinterest

#WritingCommunity #Snippetshare Quote or reply to share any snippet featuring the word "FOOT" Gretel’s encounter with Clicky. Spoiler warning.

Currently running on three hours of sleep and cannot be held responsible for any dumbassery I will get into by the end of the day. #author #writer #art #artist #coffee

Been rocking Haz 4 on solo for almost a month, then tried point extraction and suddenly got my ass handed to me on a silver platter. This particular mission had Golden Bugs on and by the time I lost the cave looked like a Crassus detonator had a gastric episode. #deeprockgalactic

The duality between these quotes in a future story is beautiful. #amwriting #writer #author #booksky #snippet

Don’t you hate it when you escape death and crawl out of your own grave and the only one around is some random kid? #artsky #artist #GraveyardGretel #horror

Even horror stories need their happy little moments :) #snippet #writing #amwriting #writingcommunity #GraveyardGretel

Between writing, art, and a full time job, I find I have to prioritize and make sacrifices just to make progress on anything. I’m not sure if anybody has noticed my not putting out art recently, but I have certainly noticed. #art #writing #artsky #writingcommunity

Writers who work on multiple series, how do you like to progress? Do you alternate between series each time you finish a book or do you hammer out one series before moving to the next? #writer #author #writingcommunity #amwriting

You know what? Here’s a poem. #writer #writingcommunity #poem #poetry #amwriting

I’d set my starship for Nirn, just to see what would happen

What I expected: A somber chronicle of the last human clawing for survival in a world forsaken by a dead god What I got: A goofy lil bean who goes on wacky adventures and (sometimes) survives

#WritingCommunity #WritingQuestion Your book has been made into a movie! The audience is being introduced to the main protagonist. What song is being played? And no not the filmscore. Mine is Gretel, a rambunctious little girl in a world that’s ended. Her intro song is Absolutely by Nine Days

So I just hit 75k on the CYOA book I’m working on and am still filling out the introduction. Maybe a little story restructuring is in order 😂 #amwriting #writer #writingcommunity #author #GraveyardGretel

Something I’ll throw out for newer BlueSky users: I love the different feeds here. Some are specific to interests while others are just for mutuals and people you follow. I haven’t used Discover in a long time.

Quoth the Raven: “F*ck, I’m tired.” #amwriting #writing #author

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

Holy shit guys I opened up an art app on my phone that I haven’t used in years, and the project it opens up with is this monstrosity! #art #artsky #memes

Anybody use semicolons anymore? #amwriting #snippet #author

My first #Snippetshare in BlueSky’s #WritingCommunity! It’s from my current rough draft and introduces one of my favorite characters!

I feel like seeing if I can’t incorporate some inspirations into my art style. Something cartoonish and simple yet impactful, like Secret of Kells/Wolf Walkers. Probably gonna try something out after work

Le Artshare!

It’s come to my attention that between the two stories I’m writing, I only have two human characters. And their vibes are… different from each other. #oc #ocsky #art #artist

Never play board games with demons #oc #ocsky #art #artist #GraveyardGretel

FYI on my pinned post: I don’t usually do commissions. It isn’t that I don’t want to, but I am both a digital artist and author on top of having a day job, which means I can’t be consistent enough for professional work.

Artist Challenge! If you see this share your program and art! Procreate because why not. Mainly I illustrate characters and moments from stories I write.

Yea, I like Penelope #oc #ocsky #art #artist
