Good month. New Short and chapter for One Bad Tuesday should be ready by end of October if we plug away at it like we have. In the #Septopolis tag we created the next big city for the series.

Was there ever a doubt that El would make it past the guard?

Have a good time with The Big Timer! tinyurl.com/5xk4s5aa

In this month we created a new city in the vast country/contient of Sehore. One we only "knew" was there but is now a fleshed out and different space only a week or so drive away from (1/3)

I love to see subversion of old tropes but done respectfully to the cast, reflective cultures (Queer, BIPOC, Disabilities), and without excess cynicism or no-hope. Gotta keep hope.

Myself and @rustraven.bsky.social
we write an urban fantasy series, Licorice and Mint. Set in a fictional version of Seattle, exploring musical subculture, magic, trauma and queer life.

Lune’s lovely face bent into a sneer. She cracked her knuckles. “A lovely little girl, playing bodyguard. Not exactly the meal I was hoping for - men are easier -  but you’ll still keep me full. And you’ll scream prettier than they will.”

This week: A look at UK releases on Elton John's Rocket label which is a treasure trove of lost pop music.

Whew, wrote almost a 1000 words in one sitting. Where did that come from?

(Was writing a chapter with a smut scene, that's where)

#WIPSnips from Monah Bk. 1 -- using "guardsman" -- The Ancients have an army of guardsmen who work magic for and protect them. They have been working with Invelisians to help rebuild after the last war. Radomir is the angry recruit here.
#writesky #writingcommunity #queerwriters #writingprompts

Josef’s calm shattered unexpectedly when one of his hardest workers threw his shovel to the ground and turned on a guardsman who was chanting near him. 
“Would you just get off my back, man?”
Josef recognized the angry young man as one of their newest recruits, and despite his hard work, he had been giving them the most trouble. 
An ancient guardsman halted his focus and slowly turned his head toward the agitated recruit. “I said nothing to you, young man.”

My friend made this lovely book poster and put me in some stellar company - as she put it: Too queer? Too bad!

#WIPSnips 30. "Guard"

Ashrah doesn't approve of the Monkey Style.

#ChroniclesOfTheRealms #SayaAshrah #NetherTouchedSareena #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters

“I sense doubt in you.”

It is just that not all Nether-Touched succumb to the temptations of the Abyss.

“Oh, this one has, trust me. I can feel it irradiating in every metallic fibre of my being.”

The Nether-Touched wrapped the chains of her sickle around a tree and swung across the clearing, kicking a marrkal in the face before falling onto her back and rolling away from another’s sting. Rather than retaliate while the demon had its guard open, the Nether-Touched sat on her haunches, knuckles against the ground, and hooted like marrkals themselves did.

Losing what wits it had left to outrage, the marrkal flailed claws and tail at the Nether-Touched, who laughed as she dodged one impalement after another. Whether with illusions or with that outlandish way of moving, she never faced them head-on. Cowardice, too, was a sign of corruption.

From WIP 1 - These Words Remain Unsaid

As a follow up to yesterday's WIP snip...it's still not going well

#WIPSnips #QueerWriters #WritingPrompts #ATWRU #SapphicWriters #sapphicauthors #WriteSky #Sapphic

For a moment, it looked like Izzy was finally letting her guard down. Maybe she believed her. Maybe this was the first step towards repairing what Julie had broken. A flicker of something warm and familiar appeared in Izzy’s eyes.
“Julie…” Izzy began.
The soft, unguarded way she said her name made Julie’s heart and hopes lift.
Then it was gone. Izzy blinked, then straightened, and the warmth vanished, leaving only a cold emotional distance.
Julie felt the words before they were spoken, and her heart sank.
Izzy shook her head. “I don’t think so.” Her eyes lingered for a heartbeat too long before she turned away and continued packing her bag.

While I'm still working on the first book in the #duology I'm writing, there's no harm in teasing some of the vibes of the second book. Unlike The Canary, The Cage is set between the 80s into the 90s giving the story a more classic summer horror vibe.

A 9 panel mood board of images for the sequel to my current novel WIP. The images are described top to bottom, left to right: two girls kissing in the sunlight, a payphone on a dark street illuminating the space with amber street lights in the background, claw swipes on a grey locker, a person loading shells into a shotgun, a movie caption screen from the 70s or 80s in yellow lettering reading 'Summer of Fear', two girls with their backs to the camera in high contrast flashlight photography in the dark one is blonde wearing a brown hoodie and one is brunette wearing a black leather jacket, a dark hazy corn field with a full moon above, a brunette girl facing a sun shower with a ray of light obscuring her face and part of the image, a disturbingly isolated white steepled American Christian church.

Just assume all my characters are queer unless stated otherwise, ok? <3

An odd boy remembers that he was a nightmarish villain in his past life, and everything goes to hell from there. It's a slowburn urban fantasy psychological horror where everyone's a little mad...

The #WIPSnip Word of the Day is 'guard' and oh boy this is where my readers will want to guard their hearts. A moment of rare frankness between Katie and Bekah sheds light on their unspoken devotion towards each other, and perhaps more.
#WriteSky #WritingCommunity #QueerWriters

The WIP Snip Word of the Day is 'guard' - the following is an excerpt from my novel WIP Canary featuring the word of the day - "Do we mix?"

"Don't we?" I asked rhetorically.

Bekah looked like she wanted to correct something but Amber, Rhys, and Lucas came around the corner to the tune of Amber's booming laugh. Craning my neck, I saw them raising their plastic glasses of punch and dancing together in our direction. I looked back to Beck but she had turned her head away, like the timing caught her off guard. A whisper of intuition made me wonder if there was something deeper in the meaning but I had to remind myself that my favorite pastime was overthinking.
