Libra Winters

“So, see you next week?” Andrew said, when they had arrived at David’s car. “Yeah, would you-” David was interrupted by Andrew’s phone ringing in his pocket. He quickly fished it out of his pocket and groaned when he saw Jake’s name on the screen. “Sorry, I have to take it or I might lose my best friend card.” Andrew was joking, for the most part. “What is it?” Andrew asked, pressing the phone to his ear. “It’s an emergency!” Jake’s voice blared in his ear. “Stop calling not knowing what to watch on TV an emergency, Jake.” They have had this discussion many times before. “It is, though!” Andrew sighed. He would now have to listen to Jake meticulously list every option on streaming and broadcast to him, just to have Jake decide he would rewatch The Office for the millionth time.

Have another little snippet! I love me some unhinged friend dynamics 🙏🏻

Andrew and David were still grinning at each other when the instructors called on everyone to get behind their stations. They started off with some simple sides and snacks for in between meals again and Andrew never realized just some cucumber sticks with different dips could be this tasty. His cutting skills were still lackluster, however. “This one kind of looks like a heart,” David pointed at one of Andrew’s horribly crooked cucumber pieces. Andrew picked it up to take a closer look. “I think it looks more like a butt.” How he managed to cut something straight like a cucumber into such a weird shape, he couldn’t tell you. David choked on a laugh and Andrew’s face turned beet red. Why did he say that? “I never realized how similar these two things look, I guess.”

I finally finished chapter 5, yay! For some reason this one gave me a lot of trouble, haha

Have a little snippet to celebrate

Thank youuuuu 😭

I just hit 10k in my draft, wohoooo 🥳 I know it might not be a lot to some people, but this feels monumental to me 🥺

Help! Can you guys tell me some dishes you think would be easy to cook for a beginner, but still teach them some good basics? I swear this is relevant to my current WIP 😭

I am tentatively looking for published authors who would be interested in being a part of a second space horror anthology, the sequel, so to speak, to Astrophobia.

The funny thing about picking up writing again is that you start reading books with completely new eyes, like HOLY SHIT

All of a sudden I notice all those tiny things where I'm like "Oh, this reads a bit repetitive" and "I would probably rephrase that" 😅

I just finished chapter 3 and my draft is now at 7k words, jippie!!

I just hit 5k on my first draft, jippie \o/

A graphic featuring the following text "Who am I? Hey, I'm Libra, I'm a freelance illustrator and aspiring author from Germany. I'm ace and biromantic and use she/they. I used to write Metal Gear Solid fanfiction!"

I figured a little introduction would be in order :)

A graphic of a trope map for the book "You Beta Believe It" with the following tropes: MM romance, omegaverse, alpha/beta, cute courting rituals, oblivious MC, demi rep, insecurity issues, cooking as a love language, queernormative world

I made a little Trope Map for my WIP called "You Beta Believe It"!

What are we thinking? 👀

Thank youuuu, I gotta admit, I'm really proud of coming up with that title, haha

First draft of chapter 2 is finished, jippie 🥳

Me starting any new hobby: "Hello?? Why am I not a master at this right away?"

I keep having to tell myself that the first draft is gonna be bad and I can always make it good later 😩

I have 39 requests, can we get it to 50 by end of the month??? 👀👀👀

I just finished the first chapter, jippie!

That being said, would any of my author friends here be interested in doing an alpha/positivity read of the first 3 chapters when they're done? 🥺

Absolutely zero context, but this is now part of my current WIP, enjoy!

Thank you, I'm doing the thing 🙏🏻

I finished a very rough outline, jippie! \o/

Now I just have to write the whole damn thing, how hard could that be? 😬

I'm going to put all the fun romance tropes in my book and no one can stop me!

Not me going smoothly from first to third person without noticing 😅 Guess I'm writing this story in third person after all!

Not all my stories are going to be A/B/O, but it's kind of what I'm currently interested in 🙏🏻

For anyone curious, my #currentWIP is an A/B/O story about a beta who doesn't think he deserves an alpha and the sweet alpha who wants to convince him otherwise 👀

Hello, I might try this writing thingy 👀
