Snippet from An Impossible Dream
Paperback, ebook, & KU: www.amazon.com/dp/B0C7GN6QWD/

There proved no better medicine for Henry than Fra’s exhausted babbling. “And why’s that?” The echoes of pain radiated from his feet, but he couldn’t seem to help himself. “Stop,” she mouthed to him, but he gleefully ignored her. “Hallucinations are rather lovely when it’s her,” Fra murmured into his pillow, burying his face into the feather down. Sare bit her lip. “Hallucinations, huh?” Henry’s attempt at grinning grew. “Puck!” He was living up to his nickname and had no intention of stopping anytime soon. “I’m warning you!” His eyes seemed to question just what she might do to him. “Almost makes the King’s sword fighting worth it,” Fra’s slurring became progressively worse. “Say she were here right now,” Henry wiggled his brow at Sare who smacked her forehead. The moment he was up and running around again, she’d twist his ear something awful, mimic Hayworth perfectly. The little shit! “What would you want to do? What would you want to say?” “Not stutter.” Fra yawned. “I know that.” Henry rolled his eyes. “Not that she cares about that. For what it’s worth, you’re doing pretty well, right now.” “You know what I mean.” “Come on, Fra. What would you say?” “I dunno. That she’s not just pretty. She’s radiant. Maybe kiss her. Just once…” His voice tapered off and his breathing began to even out. Photo of page 585 An Impossible Dream Ellie Lieberman 2023

“No need for your puppet to speak for you, Leon,” a second man called out.
Fra's jaw set. “I called this meeting and…”
“And who are you to call anything?” Challenged a third. “Last I heard, you don't even wear the crown yet.”

I feel like either Auntie Patchet from my Be Series or Maeb from A Dance of Bow & Blade would be the best option. Both are pretty wise & witchy & already guide the characters a bit.

One downside is Maeb likes to lead a character to an answer in the form of what often feels like a riddle at times.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Which of your characters would you turn to for advice?

Does it matter what the advice was on? Relationships? Money? Career? Other?

Is there anyone who's advice you would always do the exact opposite of?

Happy Cloudflare Outage-mas! It’s one of our favorite holidays over here on Bluesky.

On this day, we should remind you that almost 20% of the internet uses Cloudflare, despite years of reporting covering their platforming of white supremacists.

Maybe it shouldn’t have such a large market share?
How One Major Internet Company Helps Serve Up Hate on the Web
Cloudflare, a prominent San Francisco outfit, provides services to neo-Nazi sites like The Daily Stormer, including giving them personal information on people who complain about their content.

In the Be Series, there is a lake in the Southernmost point of the Southern Kingdom and the Northernmost point of the Northern Kingdom that are believed to be connected, like a portal between the two.

Welcome to our third week, #NovemberWorldbuilders! This time we're talking about important RIVERS or LAKES in our world! But, tbh, any sufficiently important body of water will do. Also, don't feel obliged to answer; sometimes I cover niche topics that aren't for everyone!

Many of the characters in my Be Series love the Queen's room in Midgrim's castle. It is a sanctuary of love and warmth in the midst of the castle's (and really the whole kingdom's) coldness and violence!

Here's a snippet from An Impossible Dream & paper art fan art by The Enchanted Wren!

She whipped around to Sare, drawing herself taller. Everything about her before that scared the girl she became. Monster enough to keep her safe from the true nightmare lurking in the shadows.

The stranger lost his scarf around the last corner, making quick progress in long, frenetic strides. Now, they could better see his wild eyes, his wild curls, better hear his wild cries, only adding to the menace of his towering frame.
