Writing is fun.
Writing is hard.
Writing is emotional.
Writing is frustrating.
Writing is like conquering worlds.

My characters actually *did* run a stand at a farmers market in the book...

I'll just leave it at that.

Your original character is running a booth at a farmers market! What are they selling? Is it pricey?

Good start to #5amwriters club this morning, but had an even better writing session this past Sunday at a local indie coffee shop.

Rain outside and warmth, tears, and writing inside with a cup of chai? Yes please!

Writing snippet: “Are you hurt?” she asked, pulling down his collar, searching for the source. He shook his head, and when Lennie caught his eye, she saw the fire dying out there, a ring of red around the irises, fading fast. “Not his blood,” Micah muttered, still scanning the trees.

Here's Macsen about to talk out of Tova's mouth #WIPSnips #WIP #AmWriting #WritingPrompts #Writers #Writing #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #Fantasy #FantasySky #DarkFantasy #Necromancy
When Tova looked up again, her face had undergone a subtle change, so subtle I doubt I would have noticed it if I hadn’t understood her nature. Her jaw hardened, and the intelligence in her eyes was overtaken by something of equal authority, but different character. Her remorse turned shrewd. Her amity slipped into enmity.

#AwesomeCharacters

🧵1/8

Deuteragonist, like secondary characters? (I had to look this one up)

I'd consider Sam and Mitali to be the MCs and Tara and Kavish to be the secondary characters. Let's take a look at each of them, starting with Kavish.

Deuteragonist day!

How did they meet your protagonist and/or get involved in the plot?

Was it a chance encounter or planned? Was it an ordinary day for them?

Was getting involved good for them, or a problem?
