#QueerPrompts Day 17: show or movie like your story I can't think of anything that resembles my book. There are shows where some aspects make me think it, like House and How I Met Your Mother. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip #wipwednesday
#QueerPrompts Day 2: summer writing plans/goals I do plan to get back into editing book 1, now that I'm not sick. However, fiancΓ© is on vacation this week, & we have his first appt with a neurologist tomorrow regarding his MRI. So editing may be slow for a little while longer. #WritingCommunity

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 17: MC's favorite place One of Braelyn's favorite places is the bakery that Jace introduces her to, called "Sakini's Sweet Dreams". It is owned by Mr. Pebbles, who named the shop after his wife. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip #wipwednesday
#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 2: historical fact from WIP In present day Asloria, there are 4 continents: Vrucira, Krigori, Buasiphor, and Akmende. During the First Age (roughly 2.5 millennia ago), Krigori and Buasiphor were one continent, called Matania. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #writer #fantasy

Had a bit of a stressful morning. Arya was supposed to get a lion cut along with getting a big skin tag removed, so fiancΓ© had to schedule a half day because our vet requires us to bring her in during the morning. Well, we got there, our vet says we don't *really* need to groom her, and he'll- (1/?)

"I'm not obliged to say anything about any subject at all" has been an extremely freeing mantra. Said this in an interview once when asked about some drama or other: "I don't know enough about that to comment." It COMPLETELY took interviewer by surprise. She didn't know how to respond 🀣

#QueerPrompts Day 16: how do you choose character names? A lot of the names came from name generators πŸ˜… my fiancΓ© also came up with a few for places & rulers, though I'm not sure what his process is. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 16: do your characters believe in science, magic, or both? Magic is very obvious on Asloria, so yes. There are some cities/regions where science plays a major role in society, so yes. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#QueerPrompts Day 15: cold drinks Depending on where the characters are, they can have access to chilled alcohol, tea, juice, and water. The chilled alcohol is mostly reserved for the nobility, and everything else is common. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 15: magic system in WIP My fiancΓ© is still helping me flesh out the magic system for Asloria. There are different types of magic throughout the world, some of them divinely gifted and some gifted through bloodlines. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy

Welcome to Week 44 of #WIPSnips I know I usually post these words on Sunday, but in my post writing conference haze, I definitely forgot. Whoops! Here are your words! Hope everyone's Monday is lovely! #amwriting #writingcommunity #writers #authors #writingprompts

#QueerPrompts Day 14: your feelings on flashbacks I love flashbacks! We don't always get to see the full extent of something that happened previously, so flashbacks are great for that. I have a few flashbacks in my series! #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 14: societal expectations It depends where you are. In Celestine (on the continent of Vrucira), the rules are less strict than, say, the Salbian Empire (on the continent of Akmende) or Behdsi Nasamar (on the continent of Buasiphor). #WritingCommunity #amwriting #fantasy

Copying over from Twitter, also stolen from my friend Nicole: If your MC got married, what would their ring (or symbolic item) look like? Braelyn's ring would probably look like picture A, and Mathius's would probably look like picture B. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy

#QueerPrompts Day 11: easier or harder to write during summer? Definitely harder during the summer. It gets way too hot in my office, even with a fan aimed right at me (I don't have central AC in my apartment). #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 11: what would a newspaper headline say in your WIP? There is a headline mentioned in book 1 that annoys Mathius. It is β€œPrince of Tavarria and His Sweetheart?”, referring to him and Braelyn. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#QueerPrompts Day 10: celebrity your MC would admire (or hate) I think if my series took place in the modern day, Braelyn's favorite would be Jeremy Renner or Orlando Bloom. Not sure about Mathius. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip #wipwednesday

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 10: lore in WIP My fiancΓ© and I have come up with so much lore for Asloria over the years. A lot will come up during Light's Rebellion, so I won't share it here. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip #wipwednesday

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 9: money in WIP There is a moment in book 1 where Braelyn finds a bag containing 50 platinum coins in her father's closet, and she is blown away by how much money that is. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#QueerPrompts Day 8: would your MC survive the apocalypse? Depends on the apocalypse. There's actually a point in Braelyn's story where something like this happens, so I don't want to give away my true answer. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#QueerPrompts Day 7: how would swapping your MCs sexuality change their character? Considering that Braelyn and Mathius are both demisexual, nothing would change. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 7: plants in WIP I haven't thought much about the plants on Asloria, aside from something I made up in a later chapter of book 1. There is a thing called a moonberry bush, and people can use its fruit in pastries. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy

#QueerPrompts Day 6: how would swapping your MCs gender change their character? I don't think much would change. Braelyn would still be a child of heroes, and Mathius would still be royalty. Their friendship would also stay the same. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amediting #writer #fantasy #wip

#QueerPrompts Day 4: how independent is your MC? Braelyn had to be independent after she fled Ellienne's home. She spent a few years on the streets, fending for herself. Her independence didn't change much once she started living with the wood elves. #WritingCommunity #amwriting #writer #fantasy
