#QueerWriters #CheckIn

I have been focusing on art this week, and before that honestly wasn't focusing well on writing.

Revised 1 chapter in Fire, Skin, and Bone, and about half a short story. Added 600 words

I did a little writing today. So far I'm good. But I'm nervous & anxious about the upcoming Midterm elections. I worry that it might backfire like in 2024. Or what danger might happen in the Right-Wing/Maga world if a blue wave happens?

This week, I focused on beta reading/feedback letters for people in my writing workshop, as well as writing housekeeping (applying for contests, sending out material to presses!) #LGBTQWriteAThon #queerwriters #lgbtqwriters

The week has been good, albeit slow on the writing. I can get soooo sucked in on the creative promotions and making things like playlists and mood boards that my week gets side tracked. I MUST RECOVER!! /j

Writing men who are chronically emotionally immature is so easy and fun for me because at some point it just becomes a stream of consciousness.

#LGBTQWriteAThon October 3: Check in day!

Considering I'm over juggling chickens & chainsaws over here (two books, two newsletters, moving to Italy at the end of the month, learning Italian) - yeah it was a good week. :)

Been fighting off a cold this week (hazard of working in a school) so sadly the brain fog impeded writing. I was able to let my mind wander and fill in some side character back stories though.

You know it’s bad when Cory full-names himself in a pep talk

#WIPSnips "petal" from SmokeWIP
#WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #lgbtqWriters

Excerpt from SmokeWIP, a sage Owen romance novel wip. Text as follows:

Cory hit highway speed, turned up the radio, and screamed.

It began as fuck at top volume and deteriorated into a guttural, punishing howl that left his throat raw. The cigarettes probably hadn't helped, but he'd needed something to poison the hand and mouth fixation, to rewire his brain's connection that smoking would taste like marijuana and flower petals and Matthew's lips.

He gripped the wheel until his knuckles cracked, shook himself, yelled until he was panting, wrung out, more tired than pissed off, more hurt than angry.
Then he kept eyes on the road, let his hand skim radio stations until he found something he could sing along with. He had to put his skin back on. He was Corwin Grant Mercer, happy go lucky son of a gun, bisexual menace and charmer and cowboy. He had a university degree.

He had eclectic taste in music, loved his family, and was not about to have his equilibrium permanently shifted by some pretty man with too many problems who hadn't appreciated him.

Here's a pic of Jimmy the MC of my book Waterspout. Someone called him a "slutty little twink" but he's also a talented painter.

If he could master a new hobby in one day, what would it be?

A2: In No Sky Like Midnight, my FMC Paige yearns both for safety & for someone to see her fully. My MMC Leo yearns for a world where everyone is left alone to live as they wish, & for someone he can trust to be real.

Deep in edits for book 1. I'm targeting June for release and I'm being "extra" with this so I've a lot still to do. this is the mood board for that. I have to fix the quote because i think i changed it recently, but it's the same idea.
#LGBTQWriteAThon #queerwriters #writingcommunity #lgbtqwriters

Mood board
Top left: wheat field
Top center: trail through grassy field with forest nearby
Top right: old books
Middle left: cenote
Center: "Sometimes one must do things they aren't comfortable doing to proceed forward"
Center right: Mayan temple
Bottom left: cavern dwellings
Bottom center: back of a woman with long mint hair and a fancy braid
Bottom right: grand palacial hall

I changed the quote in editing, I'll have to update this at some point.

@laurenpburka.bsky.social Oct 3, 2026, 12:11 AM

Uh, well, I've got projects. Lots of projects.
Currently I have an ARC up for a sequel. I'm also taking a break from writing fantasy novels and writing a SF novel. When I finish it, I'll write the sequel to my last fantasy novel.

Ongoing, untitled WIP is follows a middle-aged Leather Daddy who also loves roses. "D" (for Daddy? 😆) finds his life turned upside down as the true nature of his relationships comes into focus.
