A few seconds later, Jahnari comes wandering up the road. She’s carrying a staff that’s about two feet taller than she is and she has a basket on her arm. 
She sees me and pauses.
    “Chi … chicken legs,” I stammer.
She whips her head around and looks back at the house, as if she’s startled by the accusation and is checking to see whether it does, indeed, have chicken legs.
    “So?” she demands. 
    I point stupidly at the house. “Why is it on chicken legs?”
    Jahnari shrugs. “In case I want to move.”

Soryl's been robbed, I guess she's going to have to accept the dead girl's job now 😬 #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #FantasySky #DarkFantasy

I don't use this word much so unfortunately I'll just have to post this very mediocre snip from Death and the Dreamer. #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #FantasySky #DarkFantasy

I've used this one before but I'm short on other options for "dodge." In this scene, Sunday is fighting a man with a deer's head. #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #FantasySky #Romantasy #AmQuerying

My goal with Death & the Dreamer was to create a romantic relationship for my two antagonists that is more dysfunctional than Elen Hutter and Count Orlok #WritingQ #booksky #writesky

Macsen was a disembodied spirit for a couple hundred years, so he's about as patient as they get. If he had hands, he would rub them together and cackle manically about the virtues of patience. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

The people believe the soul can't leave the body unless it can see the stars, so bodies are left in open graves for a couple of nights before they're buried. #worldbuilding #storydevelopment #writingcommunity #writersky #writingprompts

Ha! Well, the antagonist in Death & the Dreamer is an incorporeal necromancer who has already been dead for a couple of centuries, so he can't really be killed, only contained. #WritingCommunity #Writers #Authors #WritingPrompts

When I wing it I end up with something unwieldy and rambling so now I'm at the opposite extreme ... I have a detailed outline with rough word estimates for each section that I copy into Scrivener and I write directly in that. It's a bit over the top, really. #WritingQ #WritingCommunity #writesky

From Death & the Dreamer: Soryl can get inside people's daydreams. In this snip, she's sharing headspace with Gerald the guard and is pretending to be a cat so he won't notice her. #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #FantasySky #DarkFantasy

And you know you've got a great snip in there somewhere but it will take you way too long to weed through all the generic incidences of the word to find it so you have to settle ...

Here's one of the millions of uses of "might" I have in all four WIPs. This is from Opus Eternal, wherein the chickens are acting stupider than usual #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #FantasySky #Romantasy

I had to answer this question because the most famous band my small town ever spawned was called Vomit Launch and it is worth telling you about because, well, it was called *Vomit Launch*

I had way too many options today ... settled on this one from Death and the Dreamer. Spoiler: Soryl cares a bit more than she's letting on #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #FantasySky #DarkFantasy
