Sticking with the band cuz I know them best: AJ - anti-stubborn, easy-going, wherever life takes him is fine Katie - has ND fixations especially if a goal she is excited about, also ND habit of "changing scripts" and moving on from things far faster than others understand 1/3 #AwesomeCharacters

Would people be interested in submitting to a sapphic dark romance anthology? I've done two sapphic anthologies so far and I've had a lot of fun. This one would be due around the end of May and release July/August. 🤔

Monday #snippetshare I like letting my bbs laugh with each other, so I had a few scenes to choose from, but this is one of my favorites ❤️ Context: Ru'ul is training Kena to fight, and Mireia happened to walk by & see them sparring, and suddenly got attacked by ~feelings~ 😂 #Atlantis Book 2

Katie would accept it in stride and ask what the music is like out here. Kyle would point to a few specific events and ask "Seriously?! Why do you hate ME so much?" But I'd point to Katie & Rachel and his kids, AJ & Wynne, and he'd shrug, smile, and say it's worth it. 1/2 #AwesomeCharacters

Here they are out to dinner before a gig and having far too much fun. Rachel (the POV) was already teasing Kyle about Mandy the waitress flirting with him. Despite all evidence to the contrary, my characters are actually adults. 🤣 (Unedited WIP) #snippetshare #writingq

I really like both and use both depending on the story. So far, I have only had little slip ups switching between tenses as I work on different stories, but my biggest issue is if I start second guessing rather than just trusting myself, it slows my writing way down.

Here Katie & Kyle are at a park and she is telling him about breaking up with her horrible, cheating ex-fiance and how she couldn't even confront him. (And it's a lovely spring day here! Probably not going to plant, but it'll be ice to see green again.) 😁 #SundaySnips

Describe your plot in five words or less - if you dare. Dragon lady falls for cephalopod.

Brief today since will be offline with all-day #DnD game today but… Corpses are limited at any given time but steady supply. With arcanium, there is a definite worry about depletion but not slowing them down. They’ll study where it’s been found & make a creepy discovery. #Marchistics

EEEEEEEEE #AwesomeCharacters it's an art day, yay!! First the gorgeous art I've gotten from others: - Mireia & Kena by @nushdeco.bsky.social (my first commissioned piece! ❤️) - Mireia by @megwyn.bsky.social - Noah & Cassie by @sarkastiklover.bsky.social - Clara & Mem by @nushdeco.bsky.social 🧵1/?

#AwesomeCharacters Character art, yay! Meet my book babies, Spencer Thorne and Wren Bower. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #Wrencer

I actually do have art of Lia and Roman! I drew these myself back in 2024 when I was feverishly drawing vampires. The left image is a quick reference sketch, though the height diff. is off (Lia is supposed to be a bit taller), whereas the right image is a hypothetical fancy party (he'd never go).

Time for an #AwesomeCharacters parade 😅 I think you've seen these picrews, which are the only thing I have of my characters, but here we go. Jack is tall and rather thin, well-dressed. About 40. Platinum hair, dark blue eyes. Often looks serious, stoic, or dour, but can soften up sometimes. 🧵 1/5

This is from my little story for Monster Mash Madness by @hookandquillpress.com. Nicademus is on the receiving end of a D&D Sending spell (25 word message to someone anywhere in the world and they can reply immediately). Super useful spell but also gut-wrenching when this happens.😬 #FavLineFriday

My original thought for the corpse processing in Felcrown is that it's just dissection of the parts and nothing special. But when there's a dull answer to a prompt, what does that mean? Moar worldbuilding!!! The people who had most of the corpse harvesting are the Quolihiim. 1/5 #Marchistics

Skipped yesterday because the ideas I had applied to today. Also going to do 2 separate shorter threads this time. First off - arcanium ore. I liked the idea I had chatting with Cori that arcanium absorbs ambient magic and can have weak but unpredictable effects when uncovered. 1/5 #Marchistics

Had an awful dream last night of watching some Peanuts cartoon but it was all these ugly GenAI art monsters breaking everything while poorly drawn Snoopy and Woodstock freaked out. 0/10 No stars Two thumbs down 👎👎

Testing the waters, so give a like or a reply if this is something that interests you or you would like more info about: You are: - sapphic - not a terf - not a swerf - anti-genAI - creative (artists, writer, game dev, musician, etc) You want: - A blog / newsletter that you don't really have to

I normally don't do this but my family is in dire need of help! My stepfather passed away last week and we immediately need money to not only cover his funeral expenses but living expenses as well for 5 kids and both my mother and I are disabled. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Yes? Generally I try to write in order but if a later scene hits me hard, I'll at least get an extremely rough version down so that I can clean it up later. Also, I sometimes skip scenes that stick for me so that I can keep things moving but I should stop myself from doing that. 1/2

She's a cigar-chewing ratling veteran reporter. He is a wet-behind-the-ears drow intern. Together they are going to blow this story wide open! I don't know how much I'll use these 2 reporters from the Unified Felcrown Register broadsheet but they are a fun pair at least for this vignette. #WIPSnips

Arcanium ores are all the variety of usual metals but with magical properties. So there's arcanium iron, arcanium gold, etc. I still need to figure out if they affect different metals differently, but at the moment I'm thinking they cause the metal to basically be a magic sponge. 1/10 #Marchistics

For Red's walking chair, I originally thought only the chair would be intermediate since the rest of it she assembles from raw parts. (And I had an idea for the padding coming from 12' tall, two-headed extraplanar sheep, just for fun.) But I realized bones are intermediate parts. 1/2 #Marchistics

Bit of a longer snip, but here Katie is sitting on the edge of a stage talking with an unnamed character I haven't snipped before about an upcoming performance. They open up to each other and actually talk about vulnerability (so it seemed apt!). #snippetshare

YOU FOLKS! I was out for most of the day today and I come home and check - and we're at $600?!? That means this is definitely happening, definitely getting published - and we're *already* getting some bonus art à la the classic Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew books! I'm so excited and so grateful! 😭 <3

Fresh from last night! A Felcrown bonus story featuring 2 side characters for Monster Mash Madness by @fromtreetobook.bsky.social! Here Hope (tiefling mother to Digs) visits an old minotaur friend. FYI this #WIPSnips is 100% SFW but MMM is a 10k monsterotica story challenge, so.... 🔥🌶️🔥 😈💋🐃 🔥🌶️🔥

I'm having a lot of fun with Monster Mash Madness and it's only the second day! Joining the Trackbear leaderboard also provides a fun sense of community, as long as you don't take it too seriously.

I’m going to be an awful tease, but both Felcrown and Philosopher Queens will involve serious, permanent injuries. (Felcrown sooner) In both cases, the person involved comes out stronger and others appreciate their time with them more, not wanting to waste any more time together. #AwesomeCharacters

Wow, that headline is a gut punch. Yikes! Are they saying when a parent has chronic, undiagnosed depression, it is actually NOT the obligation of one of the kids to smooth everything over and cheer them up every time? But what if the kid gets really good at it with an entire childhood of practice?😬

Laying the ground work so not a lot of detail yet, but the two final products I am looking at are: - Resleeves's walking chair - she is a gnoll artificer born without legs and builds a walking chair using the bones from 2 sets of ogre arms. Might look at other body part machines. 1/2 #Marchistics

Ok, time for some accountability posting since I've been slacking: March writing goals - Complete Shipwrecked familiars - Draft next 3 episodes of Felcrown - Revise first 4 episodes of Felcrown - Post on Felcrown ttrpg dev blog at least 4 times - Write Monster Mash Madness 1/2

It's HERE!!!!! Happy Monster Mash Madness day, everyone!!! Get out your monsters! If anyone wants to join in on our Trackbear to follow along with our progress, please join here! trackbear.app/leaderboards...

Who dat?

I have 2 supply chains to possibly detail for Felcrown ( #DnD fantasy adventure serial about a megadungeon that becomes a city). In both cases, I have raw materials but doing this will help me think of the final products. - arcanium ore that's useful for making magic items - corpses #Marchistics

Working on revisions for my shipwrecked familiars romance with the grumpy sprite and sunshine imp. Here Daryus assesses his vile enemy, Phraxxiz. I'm sensing some conflicting feelings here, perhaps. I dunno, I could be imagining it.🤷 #SundaySnips

It's funny that my favorite #DnD class is bard yet I never play them as musical. Had one that summoned spirits or this character in my story that is a hype-bard who gives inspiration by talking you up. From Felcrown, my fantasy adventure serial about a megadungeon that becomes a city. #WIPSnips

#Febchantment 28 One of my favorite magic scenes from #Atlantis Book 1 is the moment Kena finally uses his crystal for the first time, after struggling for a long time to get it 🧡 THE GODS OF ATALANTIS will be coming out early this year! Sign up to be an ARC reader: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Fiction writer: Summer of 2024 when I managed to write not only more than a couple thousand words but an actual complete story. I had the feeling hit of being an RPG writer the 1st time I had something published. In my mind they feel different since I still struggled to write fiction for 20+ years.

I’m not stoned again by the way but my advice to people is to stop waiting around for someone else to put out your thing and just do it. You can do another one after who cares. I just invented this concept.

CW: Corpse & body parts As usual, I was too busy to fully keep up but I'll still be using these prompts as I write my story. Thank you @professoremily.bsky.social, it was a wonderful set!! Here, Redsleeves shows how she can use scraps with latent magic in them to craft useful items. #Febchantment

That awkward moment of seeing your attractive friend is even hotter than you realized. 🥵 Although this is Kyle feeling extremely out of place, Katie started her very similar awkwardness with Rachel a couple years ago. In both cases, it's Rachel's turn to be oblivious to their drooling.😅 #WIPSnips

Anyone finding this thanks to the lovely @professoremily.bsky.social and @kiraofthewind.com please make sure to read the thread to better understand the intent of this prompt game. Particularly posts 3 and 4.
