If you’re an early Christmas shopper, don’t forget to support small businesses!

Like self-published authors!

Everyone likes getting books for Christmas, especially books they’ve never heard of that are right up their alley!

Also you can gift copies on itch and elsewhere & send them on Xmas Eve 🎄

#Bookvember

My favorite genre by far is fantasy. I love all the subgenres as well! Some of my faves are The Spear Cuts Through Water, The Starless Sea. Silver in the Wood, Legends and Lattes, Lord of the Rings… the list goes on!
I think it’s always just captured my imagination!

#Writevember

My progress is pretty good! I’m at 29k/50k which is right on track!

I’m a mix of a plotter and pantser, but I did a little planning out of some key scenes in October.
#Writevember Week 3

Okay, *maybe* space fantasy isn’t my usual, but I absolutely adore Name Her Holy by @clericofthevoid.bsky.social

The scenery detailing is just phenomenal and I *really* appreciate how interconnected all the characters are with each other, not just the leads

I'm almost to 30k on BanditWIP! I could probably get there tonight if I'm motivated for another writing sprint later!
I'm having so much fun with this story.

#Lovember

Micah of Sweet & Wild loves both the town of Roseyard and the forest surrounding it.
Both of them love him back, the town grows to love him, but the forest loves him from the moment he first walked through the tree line
Today's random #Lovember #WritingPrompt for the #WriteSky #WritingCommunity:

What's a place that your character loves?
Do they feel loved back?

#AwesomeCharacters

For Galen, I think it might be a day of rest where he knows someone else is taking care of his responsibilities so he can actually rest. That, or a really good dessert with cream.

Sasha, it might actually be cheese.
Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

What tempts your character?

If you had to convince them to do something they didn't really want to do, like getting a dog to take a bath using cheese, what would you use?

Would it be cheese?

#Bookvember Day 15

The Spear Cuts Through Water was a fantasy book that stole my breath away. Its narrative style is so unique and compelling, and the story itself ripped out my heart in the best way possible.

I can’t believe that it’s now less than a week until I’ll be at PAXU! I’m so excited to see my friends and play games!

Thanks everyone who has helped fund this, the response has been overwhelming. 🥹💜The hardcover proof is almost here, fingers crossed it should be this week. If the print comes out well, then it's just waiting for the edits 💜

Instead of working on drafting more tonight, I reread what I have written for BanditWIP since it’s been a few days and damn. Not to brag, but I think I’m really cooking with this one.
Going to get back to writing in earnest tomorrow!

#QueerWritersChat A5: I would love it if folk checked out the Aven Cycle: Historical fantasy set in an alternate ancient Rome with elemental magic.

Available in ebook, print, and audio, and if your library doesn't have it, ask 'em to get it!
