Accidently over rode an entire novel where I wrote an AU to a romatsy story where the other, more chaotic, Deep Dwarf sister of the original MC was exiled to the surface and met the human gardener instead. Who knew chaos gremlin energy and human farmer worked so well? #Romantasy #monsterromance

Looking out my windows to a land of snow Dill in brine floating all alone I am warm inside my house, know I must go. Pickle stolen from its glass throne. Coat on, into cold I've known. #poetry #poem #winter #writingcommunity

I often wonder in my moments alone, do the authors we read realize what they have inspired with their work? Do they ever stop and go, 'I wonder how many people picked up a pencil today because of me?' Or does it never cross their mind as they think of their next project. #writingcommunity #writing

Does anyone else ever stumble upon a new story that pulls you away from your unfinished work and demand you run away with it into the sunset? If so, how do you handle it when it happens? #writingcommunity #writing #romantasy #monsterromance

Meet Mara Magtusk, 26 year old urban Warchief. Powerful, decisive, strong when eyes are on her. Alone at night: watching her favorite anime, playing Fallout for the 5th time, reading epic fantasy about princesses; wishing she could share this with someone without ridicule. #Romantasy #MonsterRomance

Meet Mara Magtusk, 26 year old Orc Woman. By Day: crane operator and Union Warchief for Milwaukee's Orcish construction workers. Brutal, efficient, uncompromising, powerful for all Orcs and Humans who deal with her. By Night, when no eyes are on her: .... #MonsterRomance #OrcRomance #Romantasy

Growth can be painful & slow. Going from 1 Win and 1 Bye to 3 Wins in Autumn 2025 story is huge, but it is clear I still have a ways to go in craft. It was wonderful to see so many loved my prose. Thank you all for the feedback. #writingbattle #Writingcommunity @writingbattle.bsky.social

"I See You, Warchief" - A steamy 18+ novel set in the union halls and streets of Milwaukee. Mara Magtusk, orc union warchief, and Tristan Oier, human librarian from the Far North, fall in love. Traditions, strike violence, and culture threaten everything they're building. #Romantasy #MonsterRomance

In pitch dark Flee the blast Headlights stark Escape fast Far from last. #writing #writingcommunity #poetry #mentaldoodle #poem #northernwinter

Before me rests a blank paper. I need to write these cursed words Each moment thoughts turn to vapor Prose flees into the air like small birds My brain is too full of thought curds. #Writingcommunity #poetry #writing #poem

The homes of urban fantasy monsters and characters do so much quiet storytelling and worldbuilding. Orcs have special smoking racks for bones to crack. Lizardfolk have counter top meat fermentation pots. Centaurs have low and slopped beds to lay down and lean their torsos on. #Writingcommunity

Most romantasy treats culture as decoration—fancy gowns, exotic food, maybe one taboo for spice. But ask who can wear what, who can eat what, who can touch whom, who can pleasure whom. Material conditions, not aesthetic details, create depth. #Writingcommunity #Romantasy #Writing #fantasy

Water drips off my spoon Into coffee like a diving loon. Out of my tired eyesight, Then forever staining pearly whites. #Writingcommunity #borealforest #poetry #winterpoems #flashpoetry

Brain Fog [1/2] Fog on playground deep and thick Freezes on metal locked in place. I am inside, like a tick. How I long to run and give chase To run and play on that cold place. Yet I am firmly stuck In a job I Can't buck So I watch without luck.

Upon the cold wind they dance Grey and brown leaves dead Like dervishes in white they prance From grey branches to winter's bed. #Writingcommunity #poetry #winterpoem #romanticpoetry

Hoar frost drifting to the ground White silver all around Glittering in winter sun Promising endless fun. #Writingcommunity #poetry #romanticpoetry

We need more fantasy fiction where humans are not the dominant species, not the oppressed minority within the world; just existence in a world where the story follows characters and their living. Not oppression or subjugation, but shared existence. #Cozyfantasy #Writingcommunity #Romantasy

In a world inhabited by a range of fantasy creatures how is it decided what the size of doors are in public spaces? Is it the simple average and no one fits comfortably? The largest to accommodate for size? Simply which population is the most populous? #Romantasy #Cozyfantasy #Writingcommunity

The mundane actions of romantasy is what makes the genre sing. Orcs and omelets, Centaurs and cappuccinos, Medusas and mimosa. It's the everyday magic that grounds the epic. #Romantasy #Writingcommunity #CozyFantasy

Why is it that working on the Frameworks, Story and Character Bibles for a long form story seem so much more rewarding than the prose itself? #writingcommunity

For my first ever writing contest I have to say I am pleasantly surprised. I look forward to doing more @writingbattle.bsky.social
