Cannot thank @megwyn.bsky.social enough for drawing Artemisia and Mylia for me. Having character art is such a amazing thing. It's nice to see them happy and relaxed together after what I put them through :D #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #CozyFantasy

A little spooky, a little romantic, and a lot of fun. Two days until you can download this book and learn all about Reggie, the best skull friend a guy could have. Pre-order at the link. books2read.com/u/b61YR0 #Wrencer #Booksky #Books 📚 ❤️

#AwesomeCharacters Ooh I actually have a fun one for this! Artemisia is afraid of elevators. Really any mechanical devices. She finds ropes and cranks and pulleys and screws disconcerting compared to good old fashioned magicked items #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

#LitHodgePodge 28 I always struggle to find things like this because I think I kind of just vomit sentences out until I stumble upon something that sounds good, but I've always liked the juxtaposition of ways Mylia is and isn't like an ordinary elf in her intro scene. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

I don't know, I personally think this is the single best descriptive thing I've ever written. #writingcommunity #writingprompts #writesky

I love cars and hate everything to do with owning a car. That is all

I have an unusual stretch of 4pm sunday hockey games until like December and its really messing with my schedule. Usually I don't get to start playing until 10pm, leaving the house in the middle of the day to get hit in the head by pucks just feels weird

"I'm jected, I'm jected" I shout as my wife calls the psych ward

Y'all aren't prepared for how in book 2 we're going to finally leave the city of Pit's Burg to visit the recently established colony of New Hamp's Shire.

We have a real problem with the way we cling to things we like and are unwilling to try something new. I'm sure it's part of being human to seek the comfort of familiarity but companies have been abusing this for decades. Its why we get reboots and infinite sequels instead of greenlighting debuts

#LitHodgePodge 25 Advice on mitigating white room syndrome while you're doing dialogue heavy scenes? I feel this a lot lately because I think I tend to be a dialog heavy writer #WritingCommunity

#AwesomeCharacters Depending on what book is selected its either my normal childhood travel experience, I'm getting horribly brainwashed and gaslit, or I'm getting literally stabbed. I might choose the stabbing to be honest.... #WritingCommunity

Hello there! Please, if you are looking for someone to commission art of your characters or can help at all, I ask you to consider Megwyn. She is fantastic to work with, and has helped find the artistic vision behind my words on a page more than I can ever thank her. You will not be disappointed!

Virtual Voice counts as AI use and I would rather not have an audiobook than use it. And this is from someone who very much wants an audiobook one day. But I want an audiobook because Ai was to hear a person make it real, not just hear the words aloud. Hopefully this makes my position clear

Its actuslly gratifying when I see artists posting the most banger pictures and saying "yeah I'm just not very good at this" because by law of transference the writing I think I'm not very good at must actually be a banger.

I used to think getting 1st drafts out was hard. But now that I have a fully finished and edited book done, it turns out 1st drafts were easy compared to writing a 1st draft and comparing it to something finished

#pretendpanel I am officially 5k deep into first drafts of Hedge Mage 2 and 30k into my fantasy spy shapeshifter story. I would like to get one of those out the door next year. Which one is going to depend on a lot-if people really love Hedge Mage I'll probably prioritize book 2 #WritingCommunity

Better to not have an audiobook yet than to use AI. If you can't afford to hire someone, either learn the skill or wait until you can.

#LitHodgePodge 24 Here's a picture of Artemisia and Mylia together. I'd love a guess for one or both of them! Art by the incomparable @megwyn.northsky.social #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WriteSky

#FaveLineFriday I've been pretty slacky this week but I did kind of like this line from the newly started sequel: "All the tension in Mylia’s face drained away, replaced once again with that familiar smile that made Artemisia’s heart tell her brain to go stupid." #writingcommunity #writingprompts

#AwesomeCharacters Artemisia's father, Duke Lucio, is the most serious in a negative way. IE so serious and strict you make your daughter run away from home. Master Verum, the mage who denies her entry, is very serious but more in a chaperone style after the beginning of the book. #WriteSky

I suppose its on me that my son woke me up at 6:30 by singing Eurodance in bed at the top of his lungs...but they're all just such bangers
