They follow a knight & his page on cosy, whimsical adventures through the kingdoms of a post-apocalyptic Cymru.🏰

So, question thread time.

I write my stories in English and I've included nonbinary characters before who use they/them. However, this new story has a character using neo-pronouns. I was thinking about using nhw/eu which are non-gendered pronouns for Welsh.

Truthfully, I don't feel like a winner.
😔
I don't want to measure by the number of listeners / readers I have, but a storyteller with no audience is a lonely thing. Still, I'll keep the fire lit for people to gather around.

Since it's transgender awareness week, I should probably remind y'all I'm trans as are many characters in #Raven+Bear.

Sir Myrddin, the grandmaster of the Order of Branwen.
🏰
I won't spoil too much because he appears in Caer y Môn. However, this lovely grandpa definitely enjoys birdwatching.
🐦
I often use inverted magical realism in #Raven+Bear to emphasise certain things and he is one such recipient.

This #WIPSnips is a loose interpretation, but it is Sir Corbyn looking to the past. Plus it talks about stars! :3
🌃
In #Raven+Bear I use inverse magic realism to emphasise the importance of some people/events/actions. Here, Sir Corbyn imagines asking his late father for parenting advice.

I'm cackling at this ask.

The first story in #Raven+Bear is a custody battle between Sir Corbyn and a side character called Queen Ifon.

It's called The Knightbane's Prize and it's on youtube. I'd love to chat about it, so please reply with questions!

Well it got interrupted when I fainted and nearly hit the back of my head on a glass table. But I got a little editing done.

Hoping to get more done and edit part 2 of Caer y Môn.

Once I do, I'm going to write part 2 of The Lake Hopper.

More #Raven+Bear for everyone!

In preparation for Caer y Môn, I need to warn y'all about the spectre of tragedy which looms over Welsh literature.
⚰️
Welsh tales are melancholic, "Branwen ferch LLŷr" is a good example.
⛈️
Caer y Môn delves into the sombre past of Sir Corbyn, so you might need tissues. Sorry.

#Raven+Bear has deuteragonists.👨‍👧

Ata can be a brat sometimes, but it's hard to consider that her flaw when she's not even ten. She just a baby.🥺

Sir Corbyn's flaw gets explored in Caer y Môn so I won't spoil it. I'll only say he tries to find blame for himself too often.⛈️🌊

Being a chronically ill writer is wild.
🦓
You tell someone you fainted, nearly cracked your head open on a table, your left leg has hurt all day and you feel dizzy.
✒️
Then add it's been pretty good, because you got a little writing / editing done. They'll pull the funniest face.

Getting misgendered by a family member after a long time of it not happening really sucks. It feels like a betrayal.

#WeeknightWriters #FirstDraftFall Having a designated writing space can help you get into the right mindset for writing. Where are you writing this First Draft Fall?
November 17, 2025 at 5:26 PM
If I finish editing part 2 of Caer y Môn today, I'll jump back to writing The Lake Hopper. I had some ideas after chatting to my friends about stuff they'd enjoy seeing in the story.🥰

This is a snippet from the final draft of Caer y Môn. Enjoy!🌳
