Honestly, I'm excited to write Dt. Megan Deer, but not because of my love of noir. Deer is a complex character who represents the difficulties of honoring the true self and the things you must do to survive in a hostile place that you'll always call home.

Yes, there's going to be one POV change. It won't be for a while chapter though. At least I don't think so. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

I've missed a few days of #LitHodgePodge and #FirstDraftFall questions. It's been a LONG day today and my brain is not braining so. Hopefully I remember to catch up with the conversations tomorrow!

I’m excited for Mel, my POV character. This is the first time I’m consciously and intentionally making the MC autistic.

I wasn’t diagnosed until grad school, and I think I needed a few years to sit with it (and spiral over it) before feeling ready to write a character like this.

I'm excited to write about the evil(?) god. Trying to write an inscrutable being with godlike power (when I am most definitely not that) is really going to stretch my writing skills a lot.

Honestly, I'm excited about our main trio. Watson (my fully human cowriter) is really good at pushing me to consider all aspects of our characters lives, backstories, and arcs. She points out inconsistencies with curiosity that inspires me to get to know the chars better.

Honestly, i'm quite excited about all three MCs, i'm gonna make the childhood friends trauma bond after their village gets wrecked so they'll basically become one single fighting entity.

I think this shows how twisted I am, but I can't wait to start diving in to my villains scenes. 😈

They are such a monster, and I love every little twist and turn of their life.

Honestly all of them in a way, as I improved a lot and can't wait to see how I'll develop them with the skills I didn't have before ^^

#WeeknightWriters #FirstDraftFall Of all the characters in your story, who are you most excited to write about?

I'm planning to make a doc in which I keep track of character stuff in case I forget some things (which I will)

This week will be developing more flora and fauna and making sure that's all in place and I need to go back through Maya's book to make sure I'm not missing anything from there and that I'm keeping that continuance.

#FirstDraftFall

perhaps surprisingly, no lol. MarthaWIP is only from Martha's POV. although perhaps that's unsurprising bc my omni or multi POV stories don't get working titles based on a single character

I think Auri and Damián are co-msin characters and in this book it's just them. As the series goes on, though... #FirstDraftFall

Well, I shelved one of the drafts I was working on while waiting to get going on Luminhaven so I will probably do some student building for Luminhaven this week. #FirstDraftFall

For me, it's figuring out where I'm at in the current state of drafting so I know what to focus on next. 😅

#FirstDraftFall

My ambitious plan is to get to the ‘All Is Lost’ scene. Could happen.

#FirstDraftFall #weeknightwriters #writingcommunity

I have no concrete plans other than getting more words on the page.

I do know that the Falcons are about to go full Star Fox mode in a bit.

Treat us like pets, will you?

I am going to do big picture planning. There are opening scenes I know for sure I want, and a general shape of the story is already in mind. I want to fill in some more details, which might include a timeline for how long the story is. Does it take place over six months? More, less?
