#WritingLifeMonthly The secret antagonist of Love in Halcyon’s resentment built over time. They are viciously jealous of others’ power and would do anything to secure more for themself. Anything. #WritingCommunity 🌈📚💙 #AmWriting #WriteSky #WritingPrompts

#MarchWorldbuilders Every plant has subtle symbolism in Love in Halcyon, especially when a character gives another character a flower. I draw a lot of inspiration from Victorian flower language. 🌈📚💙 #WritingCommunity @kiraofthewind.com

#FantasyIndiesMarch Lindsey and Will have to reckon with their fated responsibilities and their informed responsibilities. How does one balance what needs to get done against what one wants to do? Can they ever be reconciled? 🌈📚💙 @chesneyinfalt.bsky.social @lvrussell.bsky.social

#QueerPrompts Oh, absolutely! Love in Halcyon draws much inspiration from old King Arthur texts, it just happens to be a little more overtly queer~☺️💖

#WritingLifeMonthly The secret antagonist of Love in Halcyon believes that powerful people should beget more power, and owe no responsibility to those more vulnerable than them. And they sleep just fine. #WritingCommunity 🌈📚💙 #AmWriting #Authors #WriteSky #WritingPrompts

#SpoonieAuthChat Most of my characters are named by feel and research. Sometimes, a name comes right away, and I’ll do a search to make sure it’s appropriate, or I may research historical figures or references I can pay homage to.

#WritingLifeMonthly While being discovered in their dastardly plans is hovering over their head, the antagonist of Love in Halcyon is more afraid of losing power than someone knowing their secret identity. #WritingCommunity 🌈📚💙 #AmWriting #Writers #Authors #WriteSky #WritingPrompts

#QueerPrompts In Love in Halcyon, which society trends towards being anti-discrimination, there are still folks on an individual level who may look down on others based solely on being different from them. Trent the Valiant is someone who exemplifies this towards women. (He’s awful.)

#MarchWorldbuilders There is a lone weeping willow off of the shore of the lake by the Teasdale’s cottage. Will takes time to be reflective by it, perhaps fishing, reading, or playing his ocarina. Lindsey will climb it. Good luck getting her down! @kiraofthewind.com

#FantasyIndiesMarch Hullo~! I’m Rosie and I’m an incurable romantic 🤭 My project is Love in Halcyon, a queernormative quasi-medieval realm where magic abounds. Will is newly knighted, and chooses the peculiar magician Lindsey to be his partner-in-arms. They had better not 🫢 fall in love!

#WritingPrompt Will likes to read history and of heroes past while Lindsey prefers mythology or anatomy books.

This seems like an appropriate time to remind everyone that I wrote a very romantic, very queer, slice-of-life fantasy about a former servant of evil starting a new life working in a bookshop & falling in love with a handsome knight & it’s out now! 💕 books2read.com/u/b5YEw1

#WritingPrompt Most likely a lone cabin in a forest somewhere, just to be together and fish in a nearby creek~💖

#FantasyIndiesFebruary Will spends most of his time concerning himself with the pressures of the expectations on him. He thinks if he lets up with training, he will inevitably disappoint someone. Lindsey has a breezy confidence. She is happy. 🌈📚💙 @chesneyinfalt.bsky.social @lvrussell.bsky.social

#FebruaryWorldbuilders Not so much a law as an established rule, but royal knights and their partners-in-arms magicians are FORBIDDEN from having romantic entanglements! Will and his magician Lindsey had better not kiss! Or 🫢 fall in love! #WritingPrompts 🌈📚💙 #WritingCommunity @kiraofthewind.com

#AskAnAuthor Love in Halcyon is not particularly subtle in the least 🤭 It’s overt in its themes of love, self-acceptance, individuality vs community needs, and coziness~💖💖 A hidden Easter egg? I’ve named a few characters after friends I’ve adored~! #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts 🌈📚💙

#WritingLifeMonthly Happily ever after, naturally~! Will will learn to love himself, and in doing so, love others. Lindsey will find that her confidence is justified. #WritingCommunity 🌈📚💙 #Writers #WriteSky #WritingPrompts
