MC's new roommates hope he learns to embrace his psychic gifts, he's seen them as an inconvenient at best, a curse at worst.
As far as romantic yearning? Not my wheelhouse so the romance is minimal. Despite the Three's Company living arrangements, they're not into one another

Charlie- Meaning to her life. Justice for the downtrodden and neglected. Truth/reality.

Jack- For his work to matter. A legacy. Time with his loved-ones. (And dont tell him, but... Charlie.)

Steady- Love, friendship, and anything at all to quiet her self-doubt.

Tharaiyelagh is pretty good at yearning. He yearns to belong, to be worthy, to be loved.

Baleirithys moved beyond yearning into tragic resignation.

Tempest does not yearn.

I write romance, so yearning is my specialty. Cole and Ezra have a long history of it. They yearned for each other when they were teen best friends. When fate separated them, they longed to be reunited. And then they tried a casual relationship but yearned to love openly.

Nick: closure with his father
Adam: to feel like he's wanted
Maria: not be the mom friend
Jacari: prove that he's a great inventor
Amy: to be loved (besides Kanta)
Kanta: be understood

What do my characters yearn for?

Individuation, safety, security, belonging, affection, love, adventure, friendship, fulfillment, identity, etc. etc.

#QueerWritersChat Yearning is among my FAVORITE romance elements, so there's a LOT of that going on within romance arcs and relationships 😅
But I also like writing characters that yearn for something better. I love a good "I want" song LOL

For Hailey in SaY, to get to live a happy normal life as a trans girl. And be seen as who she knows she is.

For Helena in Vit, to feel safe. To be free of the destructive and abusive forces in her life, and find some small bit of calm.

Hii #QueerWritersChat! I'm Gabe, and I write MM romance and dark fantasy
I've been rewriting my t4t erotic horror novella, Raw. And I've been slowly chipping away at writing Fealty Among Bastards

Nadezhda starts the story wanting nothing more than to prove herself. She wants to be a fighter, and to see what life is beyond the walls of her home.

Khyr wants freedom — at least, at first. Later, he just yearns for Nadezhda. #QueerWritersChat

For SL WIP, it's all Cara and Emilia yearning for each other, given their forced separation due to the curse placed upon them. All they want is to see each other again as each other.

Lux yearns for stability. They've been on their own for so long and just want people to be with.

Its me!

Current projects are a few novellas. One or two are for my Mudlarks Paranormal series, (DeadmanWIP and ShepherdWIP) the other is part of a sci-fi collection set in a cozy dystopian intergalactic empire (TugboatWIP.)

First off, each other. My stuff is usually fast-burn but I wound up writing a book where every kiss gets interrupted!

Sunny longs for a fresh start. A way to redefine himself without the word 'loss.'

Tarasu isn't quite ready yet to dream and would claim not to want anything

#QueerWritersChat Q2

Raquel yearns for acceptance (including self-acceptance) and a home where she can feel safe.

Nina yearns for control over herself after being controlled by her parents, and unconditional love from those who actually care about her.

I'm working on editing "Hell Is Work", as always.

While as @zekecaliban.bsky.social, I am working on drafting "Blow Me Down," my Pirates of Dark Water inspired pirate adventure erotica.

Hiya, I'm Jubilee. 🎇 Current project is a fittingly spooky dark fantasy/horror novella called Vitrified. It's about a woman trapped in a loop of dreams, who tries to find a way out ... by astral projecting herself to another realm, seeking help. Things get very weird from there.

#QueerWritersChat

A2: Ness yearns for a sense of belonging. She wants a safe place where she and those she cares about can be happy.
