Been thinking about upgrading my Luminar 4 to Neo, but after testing Neo for a couple of days, I can't say I'm convinced 🤔 using the same editing steps, the Neo version looks less realistic. Also, the quality of the new generative AI tools doesn't compare to Adobe in the slightest. Heck, the old

#WritersCoffeeClub 23/10: Have you ever written a story-within-a-story?
The prologues of my 4-part coming-of-age thriller set in the world of figure skating are their own self-contained story that the characters are gradually discovering throughout the series.

Had a very nice chat with a Lidl cashier today who asked why I was wearing an N95 mask. Frankly, I don't mind the questions, I don't mind educating people. That's always better than stares and misconceptions.

I have a master spreadsheet and an additional word file that basically acts as my personal Wiki.

Initial feedback from my trusted alpha reader: she wanted to read one more chapter before heading to bed. Two hours later, she was still reading. I take that as a good sign!

Finished editing Book 2, now it's off to my trusted Alpha Reader for initial feedback. The question remains, what the heck am I supposed to do with all that free time I suddenly have on my hands? I guess I can always start writing Book 3 🤷‍♀️

I usually have a working title by the time I start drafting, though it might change and evolve as the story grows and I get a better feeling for it.

Do your story titles come to you right away or after you write a story? Most of mine come right away. Sometimes, though, they emerge after I’ve started the editing process #writingq #WritingCommunity

#WordWeavers 13/10: Who among your characters is the biggest risk-taker?

I should probably say one of my MCs, but the truth is, Yelena is the biggest risk-taker of them all. She stakes everything on one card, consequence be dammed.

#WritersCoffeeClub 10/12. Do you prefer to use real-world settings or to invent new ones?

I generally prefer real-world settings, though I'm not above making up places to better suit the story. My current WIP features two villages that do not exist in real life.

Mostly paperbacks and hardcovers. If Audible has a good deal, I listen to the occasional audio book as well. And if hyperfixation for a certain fandom hits, you'll likely find me on AO3

Happy Friday!! We made it!

This question is for #readers:

What format of stories do you read? (For example, paperback novels, novellas, short story serials, manga, audiobooks, webcomics, etc.)

Definitely enjoyed Thunderbolts more than Cap4. Not only were the special effects considerably better but so was the storytelling. Also, this must have been the first movie since Endgame that brought tears to my eyes
