So how do you cope with dark things?
This is how Emia in Again copes in a nutshell. You can meet my dark-humored gremlin in two days. Woot woot. #book #indieauthor

Well, that was difficult. But I did it.
Anyways, anyone want to look into my next #book coming out? It's got murder and romance and dad jokes and time travel and everyone is a little twisted. So far it has 4.8 stars. Here's a link and a meme/plot summery.

I just realized Again comes out in 9 days.
My third book comes out in 9 days. Where did the time go?
Here's a meme, I guess.

Me reading my own book: Who the hell wrote this character? She’s a lil’ sassafras snarky gremlin and I kinda want to adopt her.
Oh. Wait…
Look sometimes I forget I’m reading my own book, okay?

This adorable floof has been in my life for one week. Slowly coming out of her shell. Now to convince her to eat all the food. #caturday

Am I distracted? Yes. Yes I am. But I think it’s deserved.
This is my new princess. I’ve known her less than a week and I’d die for her. #cat #catsofblsky

Full cover time!
Editing is taking more time than previously thought, but Again is coming. Had epic amounts of help from Sophie Edwards on cleaning up the blurb and art from Gavriella.
There's gonna be lots of murder in this book... and puns. #indieauthor

Is this how this is supposed to be done? #indieauthor #fantasy

My random word was break. This is the first instance of it in Again. My favorite use of the word was too spoiler-y haha. #writingprompts

Do memes speak to people? This one describes my #book "Again" and it's characters pretty well. #IndieAuthor #fantasy #crime

I’m under fifty for both of my books. Have good reviews, but not a lot of them.

I’ll do favorite adventure movies and video game. I love The Princess Bride (cliche who doesn’t), Indiana Jones The Last Crusade, and Shrek 2 (it counts). My favorite adventure game is Uncharted 4. So good.

So Again really is a mash up even in main genres. It’s crime it’s fantasy it’s science-fi it’s a comedy it’s a tragedy it’s a romance… it’s all kinds of dark and messed up. I basically tossed everything into the kitchen sink and decided it was fine.

Emia’s favorite place starts out as alone in nature, but ends as “home.”
The Grim Artist loves a specific place in space.
Officer Uly loves being with his wife Suki, wherever she is.

I almost always listen to something while writing. Usually music tailored to the project, but also shows/videos. Typically Bob Ross, Game Theories, AH Minecraft let’s plays, Krimsonrogue videos, or Hillhome Stardew Valley. Depends on my mood.

I have a couple indie books I want to read before the end of the year and a novella I want to finish writing by Christmas for my Ko-fi. We’ll see though.

#FantasyIndiesNovember 17 Transportation in Again is tricky. Aerik is a mesh of cultures. Space flight, teleportation (the science-y kind), and magic are all 'things'. Lots of old and new tech. The main modes in the story are self-driving cars and some magic. #fantasy

#FantasyIndiesNovember 15 Free day? How about ages for my characters in Again?
Emia Breda is in her mid-thirties.
Officer Uly is in his mid-twenties. (The baby/rookie of the story.)
The Grim Artist is right around forty.
PK Soma is almost fifty. (This is all if we don’t count time loops.)

Okay, but I was watching this show again and looking at this all I could think of was the difference between Uly and Emia in Again. It made me laugh. So here's some random insight on my characters.

I’m a planster. I usually pants my way through first drafts to allow for authentic character choice and growth. And then I go back and plan it and make it make sense.
November 14, 2024 at 5:24 PM
All these unhinged story posts going around and all I want to do is make unhinged memes about Again because it's perfect for it... but I keep spoiling things.

I know it’s hard to believe because I work nonstop. But I got to see sunshine today. And there was water and flowers and trees and I laid in the grass and walked almost two miles… I need to do more trips. This park was new to me and a ways away but freaking pretty.

(Am I too late for this?)
To make a choice, Emia hunts for all the information she can from every angle first to get a full sense of the situation. She’s decisive, especially when people are in danger.
If she doesn’t know what to do she talks it out with her people.

Just found a #book review site I’ve never seen before, and I checked if any of my books were on there for lols. I have three 5⭐️ ratings there for Listen. I’m crying.
Also the “it’s complicated” by diverse characters has me dying, because facts. #indieauthor
