Finished editing To the Sky! Gonna send it off to the second round of beta readers and not think about it for a lil while

My cover artist asked me for information on the flag of the pirate ship. I coincidentally just finished writing this scene~ #WritingCommunity #amwriting

I've decided to push the publication date of To the Sky to September 2026 so it can go through one more round of beta readers. I'm currently on chapter 23 of 35 for applying the first round of beta notes. I'll be done by the end of the month. I heard from my cover artist today, too.

Been working with my artist to bring the To the Sky cover to life! I can't wait to share it with everyone~ #WritingCommunity

My friend released the 2nd book in his series today! It's a dark fantasy about a magic system driven by love/hate and the MC who works through his hatred of his enemies I adored it. Even better than the 1st book! I'd check it out~

one of my writing buddies published a book this week! Check it out~

This was a chapter in my Vampirates story. I decided to remove this snippet from the final work, because giving Petra a point of view in the narrative takes some of the tension and surprise away from the reader Enjoy! izzyking.com/index.php/20... #WritingCommunity #amwriting

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 4: Favorite books growing up I was a huge Goosebumps nerd as a kid. I read so many of them. Probably a big reason why I wrote dark fantasy/horror now I also really liked those scientific books meant for kids about snakes, dinosaurs, and other creatures

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 3: Animal friends! I don't have many animals in To the Sky, but I did just add this good boy

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 2: MCs, side chars, or villains? I am a villain fan through and through. I love both villains with purpose and villains that are just evil to be evil Though in To the Sky, I like the MMC more than the villain. James is very dear to me

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 1: Intro! I'm Izzy! 33nb. they/them please! This month, I'll be talking about To the Sky: my princess x sky pirate story. It's a fantasy with romance (very slow burn) with a focus on adventure I'll be publishing it March 24th 2026, so keep an eye out! #WritingCommunity

Got the first 1/3 of the 1st chapter coded for #yaoijam2025 I'll be using Unsplash images instead of art, so we'll see how that turns out

Anyone wanna be accountability buddies for quarter 3 this year? I have so much planned, and I'd love someone to hold me accountable for it #WritingCommunity

I finished reading Out From Under by @bobdattolo.bsky.social. It was a great book, and I def recommend picking it up My next book will be Remnant's Bond by @rochellemyles.bsky.social, which drops on July 8th. If a scifi why choose sounds good to you, check it out! www.amazon.com/dp/B0F8JRZJZZ

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings or Marvel.

I got my 2025 Quarter 3 goals written down. Now let's see if I stick to them What are your hopes and plans for Quarter 3? #writingq #WritingCommunity

Anyone else do their best writing when everyone else is asleep? I stay up to hit the 5am Writers Club instead of waking up early #WritingCommunity #5amwritersclub

pitch your story with nothing but your MC's pokemon team #writingcommunity Mine's Rueben from my dark fantasy: Serenity

I'll be participating in this jam~ I've outlined my Interactive Fiction game that I'll be building in Ren'py all by myself! Wish me luck 💪

I got this comment on my first chapter of Sandalwood, an urban fantasy about a witch who's investigating the murder of other witches while falling for the King of Hell. i've been picking at the chapter for a while and really needed this today #WritingCommunity #amwriting

I might have a cover for To The Sky in July/August. I'm hoping to publish it in March of 2026, so I've got just under a year to get it read. I wrote the blurb for the book a while back. I wanted to share it here for anyone who's interested in a sky pirate/princess story

I am looking for just a couple more people to be part of my ARC team! I'd love to hear from you! #booksky #indie #writingcommunity 📚💙📚🪐📚 Info on the books in comment

I haven't updated my pinned post yet, but I did start querying in January and got a full request in March! I took a small break in April, but I'll be back to it this month now that more agents are open for the summer For now: I'll have a minor heart attack every time I get an email, just in case

My favorite is Dakota bc they're driven, loyal, and laid-back They're also a witch who falls in love with a demon, which is always fun to write

I'm doing a reverse outline for Sandalwood, and i'm covering CWs so others can read it. it got me wondering: What sort of content warnings are in your story? How do you handle content warnings? do you put them in the book, on your website, nowhere? #writingq #WritingCommunity

my friend is giving our ARC copies of his second book if anyone is interested in a dark fantasy read! it's just over 100k words i believe i personally beta read it and loved it. lots of twists and plenty of fun characters to root for

I've been slacking on everything, but I received a full request for Serenity on the 15th. There aren't words for how I felt seeing this in my email instead of a rejection~

What does your editing process look like? #WritingCommunity #WritingQ
