I wrote nothing today but I’ve had a few exhausting days at work. I’ll try again tomorrow.

I’ve wanted to give up writing at least a hundred times, but I hold words in ways so dear to me that I fear if I do let them go, I’ll break.

Okay, I wrote today. We’re at 453 words and counting. Small wins.

It takes everything in me not to begin a sentence with ‘but’. My best friend would be disappointed if I ever did.

#WIPSnips — spend

From ‘War & Blood’ (Book 1)

#writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompts #fantasy #fiction #author #amediting #amwriting
“Oberon sat in the back. Almost to the door like the insignificant figure everyone else thought him to be. He was most foolish to believe even a seat in the room meant a luxury for a man as him. His appearance had been requested only because the entire fleet escorting the princess of Euphesus to Itanos had been pardoned to a night of enjoyment. Even when the son of a seaman could only dream of living a life like this, there had been but one thing on his mind. Aleesia. How he yearned to leave this room to spend the rest of the moon with her.” — written by Shanice E. Wilson Excerpt from ‘War & Blood’ Book 1

I started a story today I know I’ll never finish. Maybe I should just compile all unfinished stories to make one. But then again…that’s setting myself up to write ANOTHER story. Ugh.

true crime documentaries and good snacks will always be my definition of relaxation.

Dhruv’s ‘Retrograde’ feels like a cool, windy day at the beach with just headphones in and nothing to worry about.

Taylor Swift’s last best album to me is Folklore. No skips off an album that feels like a hug.

I’m in the mood to start a new story.

I haven’t written since August…🙃 crazy thing is I don’t feel guilty about it nor do I feel I’ve failed.

#WIPSnips — dungeon

From ‘War & Blood’ (Book 1)

#writingcommunity #writesky #writingprompts #fantasy #fiction #author #amediting #amwriting
“Men who survived were either forced to work on the farms, fill their ships or tend to Queen Darya's needs. If they failed to comply, Darya displayed their dismembered bodies; each limb on a wooden spike at the centre of the courtyard, summoned them to the dungeon to starve long enough to chew the meat off their own bones then hung their rotting corpse along the alleyways of the city so their children and women could see. Either way, death would always be the end result.” — written by Shanice E. Wilson Excerpt from ‘War & Blood’ (Book 1)

As of tomorrow, October 1st, I will resume writing. Think this month’s break has done me some good. #writingcommunity

Side note: haven’t been active here with the prompts because I’ve taken a month break from writing. I think I really needed it because my WIP started feeling like a chore and not my piece of art. Anywho, I’m hoping I come back to it in October feeling inspired! #writingcommunity

I got a puppy! It’s still overwhelming right now though because he needs potty training and requires a lot of attention 😩. I could cry sometimes.

Meet Ollie!

Ah, don’t mind if I do. Red is a very prominent colour in my book series.

From ‘War & Blood’ (Book 1)

The red dress swept the pavement like it was blessed by it. Fluttering freely at her back as she gracefully made an entrance up the steps. Everything about her was intoxicating. Her voice, even more dreamy. Whether you'd seen her for the first time or many times before, her impressions always felt like the first time. Queen Rhaelle's beautifully braided trailed down her spine, reflecting the sun's light like it was its own. Adorned with little white flowers tucked behind the burnt ginger strands, she was never more grateful for her maidens for their time spent every day without grievance for fitting them in perfectly. Her sapphire eyes, rimmed in a light blue hue, replicating the depth of the Poseidon Sea, could drown you. Like brown silk, polished in beady diamonds, her skin was so delicate that even a stare could bruise her. For as long as the sun existed, she would keep absorbing its glow, returning the gesture.
