Good morning all! the draft for act 1 is coming together, little by little. My #WIPSnips today is from a chapter-within-a-chapter that may or may not involve the origin of Frogbo's galaxy. How mysterious! 🐸🌌

Duels of Blood (repost of the boys getting caught in a snow storm)

A storm rolled off the North Sea. It brought with it the promise of fall and a whisper of change. As the faint sound of thunder rumbled in the distance, Ætheren knew something was coming and whatever it was electrified him. As the winds picked up, Ætheren hurried about the camp, checking the tent moorings and securing any loose ends. The glowstones did their job, the little blue stones illuminating the pathways from tent to tent in an iridescent white light that sparkled all the more as a light rain fell. It was time. Performance night was finally here.

Performance night has finally arrived for our circus crew just as a storm rolls in… #WIPSnips from TMF for “storm”

Black text, green background, “storm” highlighted pink I realize the wooziness I'm feeling is at least partly because of the elevator descending. As soon as the doors open, Jesse speeds out. Then stops. In front of the doors that lead out of the hotel, Bug stands on a luggage cart, blocking our way. He holds on to the golden frame, breathing fast. Rain floods onto the street behind him. Lightning illuminates him from behind. "You can't go out there," he says. "Bug, what?" I say, but then I realize he's not even looking at me. He stares down Jesse, taller than someone for once, and his mouth is set like he'll challenge Jesse to a fight if it comes to it. "I have to get Evie to Caroline," Jesse says. "You *can't*. If you go out now, you'll lose your powers. So will she. And so will..." He shudders, then says again, "Can't let you take Evie out there." "She needs help." "Bug..." I stop to catch my breath. "You're working for [BigBad]?" He keeps his eyes locked on Jesse. "I can't let her go into the rain," he says through clenched teeth, "but I'll help you here. Whatever you need." The concierge is running over to us, waving his arms, and I have a feeling he'll push us out into the STORM if we don't clear out of the way. Or possibly call 9-1-1 on Jesse. I close my eyes to fight a wave of dizziness that passes over me. "Guys," I say weakly.

I ❤️ this scene because there’s no way Bug’s taking Jesse in a fight, but he’s so resolved. Also the imagery of the storm behind him as he stands on that luggage cart & blocks the way!

Context: Evie (via BigBad) was just stabbed in the gut

Either imagined or real are both perfectly valid interpretations, honestly! Maybe it can only be real after it has been imagined first? Now I'm getting confused 😵‍💫

Now I'm hyped, too! The Moonlight Storm wearing its battle scars proudly like trophies is so cool. Befitting of such a battle-hardened vessel!

Rain rain go away. Channelling my sodden feet into this snip which involves too much rain courtesy of a storm! Grio thinks why it’s not the best idea to make a bargain with this particular god. #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingPrompts #WritingCommunity

The anticipation will only make Nicholls taste of payback (or rather crossbolt) all the sweeter 😝

Most of the "storm" in EF comes from the Moonlight Storm, so... here's Nitara getting hyped.

Vida could use more help: she gave birth and has a disease that will necessitate a kidney transplant in medium term. The meds for said disease aren't cheap and there's the cost of family plus work she can't do right now (babies eat time!)
Please check out her fundraiser (gofundme doesn't work in PH)

As do I look forward to yours! ❤️

Oh my goodness, thank you so much Laken 🥹 It's energizing to see accomplished writers such as yourself take notice of the vision I aspire towards. I'm really looking forward to reading Star of Shalik. TCT is next up on my to-read too! Thank you again!

You caught me! 🙏 I want to make this part feel ancient and weighty, but still in-line with how out there the world of the story is. It's been a tricky thing to balance 😅

Might be the shortest snip I've shared! Couldn't include more because this happens quite late into the book, so spoilers.

Here's a scene where we get to see Sam's anger shine. A core part of her character is her anger issues.

G'morning #WIPSnips! A shorter one from TLC today.

#WIPSnips | storm

Kinda spoilt for choice here, since most of Silver in the Ashes takes place during a multi-day storm (also apposite given the weather outside right now), but here's Mortimer taking a brief moment to consider the current situation

My stars, Maqine is so badass 🤩 and Nicholls such a creep! Such excellent vibes!!

Even though storms play a major role in #Ellamir in later volumes, those aren't written yet, so it's vibes today. Maqine storms Mrs Knight's school to rescue Hannah from the clutches of Brother Nicholls

A bunny drives a snowplow down a road covered in snow. Next to him, a second bunny is attempting to shovel the sidewalk, carving a path through the snow (which comes almost up to the bunny's eye level.) The bunny with the shovel has accidentally made a meandering path, cutting into the grass next to the sidewalk

Daily bunny no.3211 is forging his own path

Good morning #WIPSnips!!! This week I'm focusing on bridging the gaps in the first act of my story, starting off with a literal bridge... or rather, staircase 🐸🐰
I truly hope everyone has a wonderful week!

🥹 Everyone is just so lovely! Your snips are so deftly written and well-realised in each aspect, from the setting to the dialogue to every word and their arrangement. I really do think highly of your work, so your encouragement means a great deal to me. Thank you so much, I'll keep it up! 💜

"...the route seeming to have been carved by a demon fleeing from a predator." Love this passage, I feel like I can see it! This entire snip is so evocative.
