Peace in 6/8

!! Thank you for for the editing, I've been lost without one. Swapping out ampersands soon as!

And thank you two times! I can't stand the bastard but i do love writing him rambling

Sitting on it a whole day, I'm almost positive I chose the wrong 'snippet' too. 😔 isolating is hard!

According to Miriam-Webster, a 'snippet' is a small piece snipped and/or cut off from the whole. I'm not sure two-point-something pages counts as a 'snippet', but fuck it! It's my story I can share as much of it as I want.

From Chapter One of Aurelia's Epitaph,
The Liar's Last Drink.

I think you're getting it!

Deal! All three coming soon, with The Liar's penance up first.

I've been swerved by my own writing before, yeah!

Always a little uncanny to see, but the reinforcement that I'm actually not bad at it is incredible each time

Actively and unapologetically disgusting! I can only hope that person gets a paper cut on their tongue

I thought it was normal
1/2

For those of y'all that stuck around after the din was sounded, who's perspective would you prefer in a story snippet I'll post later?

The perspective of the sword wielding princess?

The perspective of her warrior-queen grandmother?

Or the perspective of an eldritch prisoner being prometheus'd?

Well! If t'is true that the pen sits mightier than the sword, would it not also be true that, like a sword, there's a difference between carrying one and wielding one?

!! HEY !! You're a hero. The world needs more black everything, especially in print!

I didn't put it in the initial post, but the girl in my story and her family, thus, are black.

How's your works coming?

You're a light from above, thank you!! I'm adding these to my timeline right now

Absolutely. That's pure romance! And the second ever wave of things written by human beings were notes of romance.

You're on the team!

You are my ally & I see you.

No need to JK at all, that's the vibe!

She's a musician princess at heart, almost a Disney character, until she finds out 'singing a lovely song' doesn’t cut it against the auldest rot clinging to reality's framework doesn't like to dance.

And thus? Has gotta be sliced & diced.

Absolutely, you're one of the bravest in the corps! What kind of typewriter, I've been looking for one myself

She does! Not sure how I want to format it, yet, but there's going to be a little notation giving the reader song details during each combat scene.

Tempo.
Style of music (waltz/tango/metal, etc. etc.)
Notation.

So the reader can actually listen to/play along with her if they're able.

The beacons were lit. Who could deny Gondor's call for aid?

That sound empowers her to play more powerful, almost magical music from proper instruments or augment her sword (shaped like a sharp tuning fork) to do the same.

Guitarrista or Guerrera, she's got a song in her heart and its gonna hit, one way or the other.

The first two mainly, the third only kinda happens (spoilers! at the end of act two, after the dark night of the soul)

There is a force of cosmic harmony radiating from her, obtained alongside her grandma's sword. The 'sound' that celestial bodies make, but we don't hear 'cause space is a vacuum. +

Oh, my days?

Hail & well-met, comrades-in-arts! This post got all the way away from me. I can't reply to everyone & keep up with it all, but it means a lot that y'all formed up on me like voltron!

Gonna mute this, but stick around! Let's keep up the community. We've work to do together, yeah?

Hey, Alyssa! Thanks, I'm just a huge fan of the genre (women doing cool shit) so I felt I had to give back to the genre that gave me so much.

What've you written? Anything I could pick up today?

Bless! I'm for sure gonna start posting snippets here within the next week for sure!

INDE! EXACTLY!!

There's been a massive lack of big women with bigger swords lately. Someone's gotta feed the masses!

Whassam, comic book writer! I'd absolutely wanna chat with ya, thanks for showing up

You know what i mean!! Its a recipe for a hell of a stew! I just gotta lock in on the delivering aspect.

Any tips you could share as a novelist that reached the finish line?

The world could use more bardcore space operas and its my job to deliver, I fear.

PLEASE tell me what you've got in the chamber!
