For those that don't know me, I'm Rich! I'm a freelance illustrator and comic creator. I've been dabbling with prose and for #FirstDraftFall I'm working on a sequel for the manuscript that I wrote last year, #HeatAndHighwater. I have a lot of ideas and time to cook. 🐉

Hi #WeeknightWriters!

It's your girl, Andi, making it in for the chat! (Oh, I write SFF, short and long)

I don’t have anything new out. I’m in a bit of a drought, but I’m really trying to push through and finally finish a first draft of my sci-fi noir while sort of keeping up with #firstdraftfall, so support in that would be amazing
❤️😬

Also tell my spooky cat he’s cute

I think I'm going to work on Saltskin for #FirstDraftFall. I've been wanting to focus on this WIP for a while, and this is the perfect reason to do so. And I have plenty of ideas for it, so there's a ton of inspiration and motivation to finally get some words down. #WeeknightWriters

#FirstDraftFall

I’m going to try and finish the first draft of The Bird and the Blade! It’s a MM fantasy romance in which a noble on the way to be married (an arranged marriage) is accosted and kidnapped by bandits! Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, the noble comes to realize that life with the

I'm a little disappointed to say the same goal I had last year 😔

To finish AnimalsWIP (which is a first draft).

But this time, it's more realistic because I'm much closer to the final word count!

Sometimes books take as long as they take.

I wanted to give Hedge Mage some space before writing its sequel, and I wanted something that I was as invested in as a couple other book ideas I really want to make work. A standalone fantasy spy adventure seemed perfect.

Greetings!

The working title is Fragile Loyalty. Marga, an investigator of smuggling cases will be in charge of a case for the first time. 1/2

It's time... last year I released season 1 of "Jevin Darke: Transgender Fluteblade Assassin."

It's time to finally get going on season 2.

I've outlined the first two (of six) episodes so far...

This #FirstDraftFall, I'm working on Fealty Among Bastards!
This challenge was incredibly helpful for me last year, and I'm hoping to keep that momentum with this year because this story may be a major undertaking 🥹
I'm really excited, though, I've been thinking about it for MONTHS! ❤️ It's time

Pitch set against a foggy forest background. To the left is a text block with the pitch.

Top Caption: Fealty Among Bastards (WIP)

Pitch Text:
After an assassination attempt on his coronation day, King Sebastian is told to flee northwest to marry his queen and ensure the Kingdom of
Ailovell's security. The only one hired to protect him is Captain Darin Wallace, the soldier that broke his heart years ago.

Darin himself, scarred both physically and mentally from war, knows he must keep his feelings for the king a secret, for revealing them
would only hurt them both.

Everything that could go wrong on this journey goes wrong, and it leaves them both with questions they hope to answer.

Will they survive the journey?
Was this assassination attempt planned?
Can King Sebastian weather the inner turmoil within his mind?
Is Darin truly willing to do anything to protect his king, even if it breaks his heart?
And once their feelings reach a fever pitch, can Sebastian and Darin keep their hands to themselves?

To the right, there are a set of loglines above four moodboard images:
The Loglines:
A Traumatized King,
A Soldier's Undying Fealty,
A Conspiracy Threatening to Destroy Them,
& A Love Affair That Will Cost Them Everything

Image 2: A hand flippantly holding a crown.
Image 3: A couple intimately leaning close to kiss.Background: Aerial view of a dense, coniferous forest covered in a layer of fog.
Top Caption: Fealty Among Bastards (WIP)
"They Say that Vengeance is a Dish Best Served Cold.
But Did They Say It'd Leave a Bitter Taste?"

Pitch blurb (on the right):
To say that Seamus Garrett hated Ailovell's Royal Line is an understatement. After a devastating plague led to the death of his infant brother and left his family in financial ruin, he hoped and prayed for the day that justice would be served.
So, when he's hired to kill the newly crowned King, Seamus is chomping at the bit to do it.
But what he never accounted for was the life he had built with his two dearest friends. Nor did he ever think that exacting his revenge could potentially lead to him losing them before he could ever tell them how he felt.
Will avenging his brother at last bring him peace?
Or will he find that killing the king won't be worth the risk?

@clarislamauthor.bsky.socialOct 1, 2026, 7:41 PM

Currently SLOWLY writing the first draft of a supernatural mystery book because I think it'll be really fun! But I have a lot of actual worldbuilding and plotting to figure out first.
