I try to boycott stuff whenever I can, but sometimes its just not feasible. I love After Eight mints. I fucking hate Nestle. I no longer buy or eat After Eight mints, but my cats eat Purina. Maybe next year I can wean them onto something else.

Yeah, I miss my characters from The Cruel Gods. I'll definitely visit them again in the future. For now, they're having adventures inside my head.
Do you ever miss your characters after you finish a story? I always do. I spent so much time with them and then, just like that, the story is over #writingq #WritingCommunity

My sky story is about a rocket knight that betrays the empire and tries to stop them from going after an ancient (and alien) technologically advanced race of plant people by teaming up with a sky pirate from a bird race, the enemies of the empire, and forming a crew together.
Tell me about a WIP you haven’t started or just started drafting.
What’s the premise and what makes you excited about it?
