📚 Sport is actually an area of lore I’d like to expand on for the #RadiumAge but I’ve yet to do so. I don’t really know why but I could see Eddy being pretty good at football/soccer ⚽️ to the point she’d likely end up carrying the team 😅

The door opened just enough for the intern, Samantha, to slip in. Young. Nervous. Holding a tablet like a shield.
"There's a call on line two," she said. "It's… uh. It's urgent."
I exhaled slowly. "Everything's urgent."
She hesitated. "The receptionist said you should take this one."
That never happened, and my pulse ticked up.
"Who is it?"
Samantha shook her head. "It didn't say. But—" She swallowed. "It's a collect call."
I froze, and the nauseous feeling hit harder with tsunami force.
"A what?"
"A collect call. From… from a correctional facility."

#FirstDraftFall
Character building, specifically the 3 MCs that the story will be focusing on entirely. I have detailed character sheets to fill out, like I've done for previous WIPs, and it takes about a day to do one character

Tell me about your #AwesomeCharacters

Your character is taking up a sport! Any sport you can think of, real or fictional.

What do you think they would be best at?

Consider: solo or team? Speed, endurance, strength or accuracy?

This spooky season remember: Every monster is a metaphor for some deep seated anxiety or self-loathing.

But the monsters don't know that.

A good book always has just a bit of mystery. Show and don’t tell takes time to build for your readers and the payoff is worth it. #writesky #booksky

Always loved the jazzy #noir vibes for this one. It was a favourite of mine when writing ‘Gangs.’

Me finding out there are two more writing summits/conferences happening during THE EXACT SAME WEEKEND: 😱

I think, if you give my novel Aftertaste a try, you might like it as much as any of the 27 out of 27 reviewers on Goodreads who have rated it 5 stars, like @annlee14.bsky.social

#booksky #writesky #trans #horror #lgbt

"Aftertaste" is a transformative
achievement and takes it place among the pinnacle of the growing body of trans literature. Another impactful book I read this year is "Bad Habit" by Alana S. Portero, and I will be keeping "Aftertaste" in a place of honor next to it as a treasured literary memory. Remember, friends, you have to live. "Aftertaste" will help. It's a beautiful read that reminds us that we are beautiful too.

Raissa would give cuttings from her hair. She’s desperate to lighten the weight.

I’m writing a Galina x Mare prequel story where she gladly makes a deal with him trading away her firstborn, which they raise together. That was the night Gisela was conceived. 👀 🔥 #Octember #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

One of the copy editors of After Midnight here with a request for MICROFICTION!!

A #drabble (exactly 100 words), a dribble (exactly 50 words), or anything less than 100 words... Please submit it to us! We love to see tiny works. ♥ #writesky #poetrysky #booksky #microfiction

Subs close Nov. 1st.

@claragordon.bsky.socialOct 12, 2026, 8:42 PM

Raissa likes how determined (but not forceful) Ash is to help her escape the tower. Ash likes that Raissa doesn’t use her crown to be cruel to others.

Mare and Galina are a strong villain couple because they can match each other’s freak.

TFW you’re a witch working with the queen’s midwives to give the pregnant queen potions you think will curse the baby to be born an ugly monster, but instead just gave baby Rapunzel her long and occasionally golden hair. #WriteSky #AuthorSky #WritingCommunity

Quote from Clara Gordon’s book reading “ingredients like rampion leaves dipped in Firebird tears and fur ripped from a baby fox.“ Surrounding the screenshot is a mood board of all of these potion ingredients

The hardest part of revisions are the constant nitpicking and second guessing. It's necessary, but it's also stressful and exhausting. And totally worth it to know you've given the story all of yourself.

Have a wild urge to to be published in an indy zine because I like the way they feel in my hands. Zines just FEEL like art. 🫴📖

From the Vampire and the Vintage.

Kathian forces Jehani to make a difficult but necessary confession.

#WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #Writesky #Vampires #Romance

Before he could go on, they shook their head. “Don’t. I don’t want to hear any excuses for why you couldn’t care about all of them being treated like meat, not even the one you told me was your friend. I’m supposed to believe that it’s somehow different now? That doesn’t even make any sense, Jehani.”

They tried to make for the door and his cowardice nearly let them go. At the last second, he grabbed their wrist, oh so gently. He needed them to stop, but wouldn’t hurt them to make it happen. They halted without turning to face him. Fine, he could deal with that. “Please, let me finish, and I swear it is the truth of the matter.”

“Fine.”

“I had a change of heart. I met this new Vintage, a beautiful young mortal who was wild and recalcitrant and absolutely rude the first time I saw them.” The anger he could feel vibrating through them, hear in their rapid pulse, ebbed just a little and he tried not to hope too much. “I got to know you in a way I didn’t even with Terrence. Who you are, what you think and feel.”

He released their wrist and walked around face them. They were still mad enough to look away, yet when he laid a hand along their jaw and gently turned them back to look at him, they didn’t resist. Was that a hint of hope he saw trying to crowd out the anger in those beautiful eyes? He forced himself to go on.

“I looked at the past, and the realities the future offered, and saw both with new eyes. I have regrets I didn’t before, but it’s so much more than that. I can’t bring myself to subject you to any part of it. As for your blood, it’s yours to share, or not, as you wish.”
