The Crown Prince, in my WIP, he was just supposed to be a background presence with more of a role in the 2nd book - but he's getting a slightly longer and sassy part.

That's one thing that Nova Scotia has going for it lol the land is beautiful and full of so many ecosystems, mostly wetlands of some degree.

We have so many, it was hard to pick just one.

Decided to go with the one I spent the most time in and around growing up.

RT this with your home river.

Life is settling down I think.

My classes have started, so let's see if I get better at marketing myself or not. Either way, it's been a week and I am loving the Business Admin program.

Progress is made in different ways. Currently re-doing character sheets, so stay tuned, I might share Percy's.

The cover mockup for Descent Into Despair. It features a purple color scheme with a crystalline city rising into the star dotted skyline.

After some delays (life is life), I have resumed work on Descent Into Despair. The timeline has been pushed slightly but I feel comfortable announcing preorders around February 1st. Please look for my little dystopian novella to appear on most platforms around that time.

Made some major plot changes that don't change the whole story but does set it up for a duelology.

So that's fun.

Also changes my main pairing. BUT ALSO makes Conri the mc of his own book and a different love interest.

This week I've managed to get a lot of writing done, fixed some holes in my world building, and completely rearranged my magic system.

Today, we're dusting off the ps2 and playing Rogue Galaxy.

I've been convinced by friends, in a group discussion, to write a "Why Choose Reverse Harem (1 omega x 3 alphas)" - so that's where all my energy is going between now and classes starting.

And of course it'll be MMMM!

Imagine writing a forest, at the 30% mark, and the best flower description is still within the first 10%.

Fix it in the edits, as they say.

better yet, consider unsubscribing from HBO/Max the week before her show comes out (& if you rejoin, wait until the HP season is over). it's not enough to *not* watch it – HBO needs to know it will hurt their bottom line if they continue producing it

I used to ghost-write contemporary romance, and while it taught me a lot, I'll never go back to it.

I would rather be stressed out because of my own deadlines and the OCs I love than someone else's projects and writing the same het-sx scenes, just different names and scenery.

If you want some fun practice doodles, may I offer up my OCs - also rude to open your comms back up and not tell me.

(And before internet comes at me. They are my actual IRL sibling and yes I pay full price for comms lol support family[you care about] folks!)

"Just a little farther, Percival."
I didnt move, even as the patience strained in his voice. My own, inner voice - the years of training- finally screamed in my ears.
No.
The high pitched ringing only grew louder as the door behind Roland opened wider. Figures moved about in the light of hundreds of candles lining the walls. I pull my hand away and reach for my sword.
Only to grab air. Right. I dont have it. It's sitting in its case on my desk, waiting for tomorrow's ceremony. I had no reason to bring it with me to the ball - most of the squires left their blades for the evening.
I wish I'd been one of the few who hadn't.

The beauty of indie trans lit is its diversity.

There are always books people talk about a lot, for good reason, but there are so many hidden gems.

Just for the heck of it, on the last day of Pride, I want to shout out some of these lesser-known books.

You might even find your next read! 🧡
