June 18 Nods to Other Books:
I'm sure I'm influenced by everything I've read just as I'm sure my crafting a truly original story is hubris, but I don't consciously nod to other works.

#LGBTQWriteAThon June 17: Tingle Title

June 16: Weekly Goal
To write SOMETHING! I'm not picky; I'll settle for mediocrity.

#LGBTQWriteAThon June 15 Color Lines:
Small, moss-covered bogs pockmarked this sparse forestland strewn with gray, lichen-encrusted rocks and the weather-polished, silver bones of the forest’s ancestors.

June 14 Check in: No writing this week-working too many hours. #LGBTQWriteAThon

June 13: Flag Day Mood Board
All my MCs either misunderstand or deny their identity, with one exception-the MC closest to the two spirit concept. I don't believe sexuality is culturally dependent, but I'm not going to appropriate the two spirit flag.
#LGBTQWriteAThon #SFF #Queer #Pride

Interesting question. There are times and cultures where social issues have been better on one vector but not so much on others. I prefer to clutch at the belief the future will be better on all fronts. Self-delusion is the secret to happiness.

If we stop labeling, people might actually be able to see each other, and concepts like gender and sexuality would become unnecessary.

People's ostensible need to label in binary terms mystifies and frustrates me. Why must our lives conform to a psychological convenience? Tear down the whole system; there's nothing worth saving.

June 11 More Rep:
I'd like to see more exploration of the intersection of gender and sexuality. For example, NB queer people intimately relating to cisgender straight people in ways that foster a new norm.

June 10: Rep Importance
Shared experience helps us understand ourselves and others. Story is second only to life in sharing.
#queerwriters #writingcommunity #SFF #Writersky #Queer #queerauthor #LGBTQWriteAThon #Pride

I see internal sexuality conflicts on 2 planes: understanding and accepting. Some have shifting or ambiguous sexualities. I think stories with characters in touch w/ their sexuality help break the stereotype that we're all conflicted about our desires.

Your perspective interests me because it's opposite my own. I believe fiction needs conflict, so I'm wondering if your characters face only external conflict over their sexuality or no sex-related conflict?

June 9: Goals this Week
Get words on screen that I'm happy with. I want my writing to be the best prose I can craft.

You’re not going to like what you hear; but you will, after the telling, want to have heard what I have to say.

Awhile ago, I read or heard that writers must be good observers. Unfortunately, no one told me before I got hooked that the observation included myself.

My best thoughts happen when I'm not thinking.

June 7: Check In
My day job requires too many hours, but I did manage to get words on screen. For the story, though, I mostly just thought about themes and let my subconscious process.

June 6: Character Inspiration: the top erotic fantasy categories for straight women--specifically the eddyline between fantasy and reality.

Even if I knew how, I don't think I should do a mood board.

Day 5: Weird Comps.
You had me at weird. I chose to interpret "comp" as an aspirational work. My weird comp:

"First Fig" by Edna St. Vincent Millay

I aspire to write prose with the power of her verse.

Not sure if you intended this, but you warned about someone surviving torture, not about the torture itself, which I'm guessing some people would think is worse than surviving.

Good to know, thank you. My reaction is not a statement about the prompt, the WriteAThon, or the people managing it. Comps get into the business of writing. I'm focused on the artistic aspects to renew by passion. I own my response, but it's nothing more than a vent.

Day 4: share your book's comps.
Fuck that. That sounds like work.

My goal this month is to enjoy writing. I walked away from my craft for several years because the outlines, quotas, character profiles, etc. turned a joyous act into work. This piece is about returning to joy.
