Good morning #ScribesUnited It’s 5:48am EST and I’m off to work. I haven’t gotten much done, but I’m hoping for good news about my car from the mechanic because I can’t take another catastrophe in 2026 🫠 Writing wise, I hope to continue editing todayy

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

#AwesomeCharacters Characters I love to hate generally are morally ambiguous assholes or have some fun, redeeming qualities or do have lines they wouldn’t cross. Quick wit is also a plus. A true, irredeemable villain is someone that has truly hateful intentions, punches down, is cruel, etc.

Tell me about your #AwesomeCharacters Today feels like a technical question day! What separates a character you love to hate, from one you just hate? A villain you may not feel sympathy for, but enjoy nonetheless? Which do you like to write? #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

He has no redeeming qualities. He is abusive, as well as bigoted. He has caused harm towards many people, especially his most devout followers. And to acknowledge all those things as fact but simply not care about the harm he’s caused is what makes him a character you just hate.

Characters I want readers to love to hate have a strict moral code and have some fun qualities. They’re usually an anti-villain or a soft “a” antagonist. The only character I’ve written to be truly awful, everyone should pray for his downfall, is Reverend Pryce.

Reverend Pryce is a character who does have a moral code his religion follows, but he himself doesn’t follow it. He is cruel for cruelty’s sake. His own bigotry and hatred for people that are different from him fuel his decisions.

As artists and fans of artists, fandom participants, fic readers, we still have work to do on closing the gap we've created in our heads between us and sex workers. I was admonished the other day for "spreading misinfo" over the uk censor law because it only applies to real people, not drawings

#AwesomeCharacters Oh god 🤣 Reverend Pryce sitting right next to me sounds completely awful. 0/10 I'd honestly just be sitting there like this and hope that he doesn't proselytize to me. He will.

Tell me about your #AwesomeCharacters Hypothetical day! You have just settled in to your seat for a 12 hour flight when the person assigned to the seat next to you arrives. It is one of your antagonists. Who is your seatmate, and how bad is this? #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

And to specifically call one person out: comparing your character to Draco malfoy IN THE BLURB ON THE BACK OF THE BOOK is why I didn't buy your book. You're literally an author Your job is to describe things. Actually describe your character instead of using transphobic shorthand

The whole world no longer smells like cigarettes.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

We're trying this again. Me attempting to write this damn story in a way that's fun for me. #threadfic 🔞 t4t MM couple In which Isulf has his dom awakening with Askel.

Gabe 🏳️‍⚧️🦇@theeldervampire.bsky.social

Because bronchitis has left me exhausted and bedridden, unable to sit at my desk, imagine my plight of just wanting to write Isulf dom tf out of Askel for the first time, but my immune system literally said “No.”

#SFFChat I like working with polytheistic pantheons that allow the followers of these gods to pass on in a sanctuary for their faith. The cruel and monstrous wouldn't get such luxuries, their eternal punishments best fitting of their crimes.

#SFFChat Q4: What “afterlife” would you like your work to have? Interpret how you so choose!

#SFFChat One character in one of my stories actually DOES get rewarded in the afterlife with another chance to live. Iykyk One character that'll be greatly punished, meanwhile, would be Reverend Pryce. Greed, lust, pride, wrath, plus an intense avarice and a penchant for cold-blooded murder.

#SFFChat Q3: Your MC finds themself being punished and/or rewarded in the afterlife! What are they most likely to be punished and/or rewarded for? Feel free to use the seven deadly sins, if you like!
