It seemed appropriate, during this season of Nobel Prize announcements, to discuss why I already know I'm one of next year's winners. #writingcommunity #authors #amwriting

From "Unifier: The Seven Labors of the White-Haired Woman"

#WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

It was an odd thing: once she was within the structure of the ship, she was momentarily able to hear the goings on inside. Soldiers, sailors, loyal subjects in service of their empire, screaming commands and readings at one another in their final seconds.
But their empire was not her empire, and their aggressive push into her territory had to be met and repelled. She pushed back against the proton generator at the core of the device that still assaulted her until one of their forces relented.
It would not be her.
The detonation of the warship sent out a single, mammoth pulse wave in all directions, knocking the other vessels in the enemy fleet out of alignment. As soon as their bearings could be regained, they turned and limped off.
Queen Valentina, sovereign of the Kaian Star Empire, drifted motionless in space. There was no sign of distress, though her wings were absent.
It was peaceful. With no medium to carry sound, and no nearby star to provide much illumination, she could be alone. Alone with her thoughts. Alone with herself. Just drifting.
Until the bud in her ear crackled with static.
“… queen, we can circle back and pursue.”
A small grouping of attack fighters, sleek craft, like hawks on a dive, entered her field of vision. They quickly darted past her.
“I’m sorry, have you been trying to talk to me?” she asked.
“Um… have you not been able to hear me?”
“No, I haven’t been able to hear you. Being buried in particle cannon fire tends to interfere with comms.”
“I was… unaware of that. My apologies.”

From One Bad Tuesday: Ch. 11 - No Shoulder to Cry On (coming soon)

In the curve of her brief sensory omnipotence, she perceived her rewoven form in the shining rippling dark.  She was as she remembered herself.  Before the…the…the thought slips away in the unformed space.  Only her reflection looks back.  Her soul, or spirit was just as it was.  The scars from Marak’s claws on her right arm.   The orange hand shaped burn from Mara on her left.  The eyes, black as the space around her save for the wavering read novas burning deep within them.

#LitHodgePodge | Day 14

Hold tight everybody, this feels like something where you'll decide I'm completely insane or a underrated genius. Possibly both - it's a thin line.

Here's a longer snip from The Road Worrier, and some one-liners will follow.

[Phil] looked across to see the wall of scrap cars shatter and fall as a truck smashed through it like an alien chestburster rendered in olive drab and six inch armour plating. Two or three of the cars exploded just to add to the effect, and Phil flinched as the bonnet of a Vauxhall Astra frisbeed over the Ambivalence and pinned itself into the grass verge beyond. Various oily bits clanged to the floor around them like autojumble sprinkles on a massive tarmac ice cream.

In this snip, Viv has just arrived at the hotel after driving for hours in a worsening snowstorm.

“Welcome to the White Birch Lodge.” The tall, younger woman’s voice faltered as Viv shuffled forward. “How did you make it up here?”

Viv’s mouth opened to answer, widening into an O when she followed the woman’s glance at windows dimly lit by struggling lamps in the blowing whiteness. Little eddies of snow swirled, settling just as quickly as they started. Her car, parked as close as possible, now looked like an unevenly burnt marshmallow.

Facing the dumbstruck woman, Viv said, “Stark determination of a reluctant maid of honor.”

Is arguing with the High Demons brave or just stupid?
