#Sniptober 27 Bit of a longer (& still rough) snip to get context and because it's a fun moment. Just a couple of gal pals doing some wound care after their first time in battle. Nothing to see here.🥰 From Felcrown, my upcoming fantasy adventure serial about a megadungeon that becomes a city.

Day 3: 1,042 words! Streak continues! Pushing thru on my main WIP on a section that's been an issue for a while. Tuesdays are my sucky, busy days, so we'll see what time I can find. But I'll try to at least hit my 100 word minimum to keep the streak going early.

Walker Harris 🫜‬@walkerharris.net

Day 2: 2,214 words! Streak begins! Felt great to have a good day of writing! It was spread across 3 WIPs but made sure to hit my goal on my main one that I was struggling with, and then let loose with some fun side projects. 😁

AI creates imbeciles. They rely on it for everything and switch off their brains. They lose empathy, the ability to think logically, and the ability to remember things. “What’s 1+2?” Let me ask AI. “When is my daughter’s birthday?” Ask AI. “How do I tie my shoe?” Ask AI. Then they brag about it.

First paragraph of the bonus chapter to whet your appetite: I stopped drying my hair with the towel and stared. There was a present, a white rectangle of a box with a deep green ribbon tied in a perfect bow, sitting in the middle of the bed.

#Sniptober 26 From Felcrown, my upcoming fantasy adventure serial about a megadungeon that becomes a city and the power of community in the face of evil. I keep telling myself: I will NOT get fixated on background characters. I will NOT get fixated on back--Blaine & "Skinny" have entered the chat.

Been down a bit lately so I haven't been writing much, plus I haven't been writing much lately so I've been down. Time to fix at least one side of that and see if it helps with the other. Let's try accountability again!😁 Day 1: 301 words Day 2: How much will I write today & get a new streak going?

Yay art! Here's a sampling of my OCs. First are the band from Philosopher Queens, my rock romance/drama serial: Katie, Kyle, Rachel, & AJ (ongoing now at WalkerHarris.net) Last two are Digs & Motayu from my Felcrown D&D-inspired fantasy adventure serial (premiering in January). #AwesomeCharacters

Thank you for the inspiration! I just managed 1,325 words on my special project I've been meaning to get to and completed a big chunk of it. Here's #SundaySnips from "A Katie Moon Cover Arrangement of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol" short(?) story. Freshly drafted this morning (so still rough).

If you spend hours replying over and over trying to convince everyone that trans* folk need to be thrown under the bus for the greater good, I'm thinking you're just a transphobe and are too much of a coward to admit it. * Or any other group, but it's the trans folk this time, as usual

This one comes out a week from today, so it's *kind of* my most recent release. Cover by @ethankocak.com. About: a Jewish, middle aged, enby graphic designer finds out the cheese monger they've crushed on for years likes them back. Oh, and it turns out he is actually a werewolf. Hijinks ensue.

With the Phl Queens serial, that's gonna be a WIP for another 3.5 years... Plus, I *really* want to get Felcrown serial out there in January... But I do try to mix in side projects to keep it fresh. Unfortunately, I can't keep them small.😭 Like a holiday spicy thing I might do. 1/2 #pretendpanel

Don't panic #pretendpanel - "I dunno" is an acceptable response to this (though don't feel like you need to post that!). But for those of you who wanna gush about it... October 24th: What comes next after current WIP/recent release? Why that? #WritingCommunity #Writers #Authors #WritingPrompts

Or I want to get one of my Dragonmeet Bay D&D/fantasy adventure romances out next year. Plus, this week a Dark Academia Felcrown story has been clawing at my brain. Not to mention my silly "blow off steam" projects... Ugh. 30 years pent up wanting to be a writer being unleashed is too much... 2/2

#LitHodgepodge 23 Fell off of prompts this month, but I got this one! For my Philosopher Queens rock romance/drama serial, the most reasonable merch would be fictional tour t-shirts for the Phl Queens themselves but also some of the other bands. My DREAM merch... actual albums of their songs.🥰

This post is unavailable.

#LitHodgepodge 23 Thinking about Felcrown, my fantasy adventure serial, sure action figures would be awesome (can I get a "Hell Yeah!" for a non-skinny action figure of Digs?!), but the fun idea that popped into my head is fast food Happy Meals. Don't know why, but I can actually picture that.😂

Snip from Jessica's latest - "Getting Hairy" available for pre-order now and coming out next week! A perfect HOWLoween treat for next week! 🐺❤️🐺 Go pre-order now before you forget! (link in the comments of the quoted post). Their characters are so fun and their stories delightfully sweet and hot!

Without warning, I was pulled into Kai’s lap. I loved how much stronger than me he was. I was not small—in fact I’d frequently referred to myself as a ‘rad fatty’—and yet he moved me around with no effort. I shivered, then pressed myself against him as hard as I could. #FridayFling

Went to put my lunch in one of the office microwaves and shoved my hand in a pile of clear goo.😩 Maybe a cold pack broke or something, but clean up your mess! (Unless it's an extraterrestrial substance that interacted with the microwave radiation & my skin to give me superpowers, then we'll see.)🤔

But always fun to feel your hand get wet, think it's just water that spilled, but then see it slowly ooze off your fingers... Nope. Nuh uh. No way. Definitely washed my hand and that glass tray a half dozen times. I'm not taking my chances with unidentified gelatinous substances.

From my rock romance/drama serial, the Philosopher Queens, about the lives & loves of an indie band and the family they form along the way. 🎸❤️ First story arc only recently wrapped up, so it's easy to catch up! Free on my website! walkerharris.net/phlqueens/ #FridayFling #Romancelandia

Exhibit # 578 of Middle-aged man gets confused when he sees a neurodivergent meme that describes one of his "quirks" perfectly. 🤔 Is there an ND parallel to trans egg-cracking? 😂 (Or maybe I'll do my usual routine of presuming they mean something else because I couldn't have gone this long, right?)

Oregon 🕎🎲@oregonthedm.bsky.social

This totally isn't true (it is)

Doesn't everyone's 1st draft of nearly every email include parentheticals and then you just edit them out before you send? (Exhibit # 579 is I took 30 minutes working on panel 2 because if the text is 3 lines it either overlaps panel 4 or covers her mouth & then her voice would be muffled.) Huh.🤔

Is it just a photo taken from my backyard in Moca, PR? - Yup. Is it also a sunrise in the Enclosure? - Oh, you'betcha. When I picture Angie trekking through the setting with her new-found friends, this is what I see. Pristine, primordial, wildly fecund. #OctoberWorldbuilders #WriteSky

#OctoberWorldbuilders, hello friends! This week could either be very easy or very hard 😆 The theme this week is "aesthetics and vibes" so I'm looking for vague, broad answers. Today: Share a mood board or artwork of something related to your story

And now Private Equity has killed BioWare. Private Equity is a bane on business and livelihoods. I sure wish I could buy stuff and make the people I’m buying it from pay me for it. That’d sure help with groceries! Only in the fucked up world of high finance is that not considered insane.

Katie is a sweet, awkward musical genius. Kyle is pure kindness & acceptance, except for himself. Rachel is more extroverted than other 3 combined, and isn't shy in making friends (or casual lovers) that she's ride-or-die for. AJ coasts thru life chill & taking it as it comes. #AwesomeCharacters

Kept waffling between 2 snips with different vibes, but here is Katie having a moment. Between her ND bothering her about proper etiquette at the 1st funeral she's attended, being in a Not-A-Relationship with someone, and 1st person she sees is his ex-wife -- Katie needs a few minutes. #Sniptober

@dinzmeria.bsky.social I just replied to you, but then realized you probably won't see it. 😂 I'm wondering if maybe you have certain pronouns set to "Hide" is why you can't see my posts. (Not that I blame anyone for wanting to hide men's posts. It's warranted all too often! 😉)

Walker Harris 🫜‬@walkerharris.net

Huh, that is weird. I just unchecked them to see if it helps but don't know how long it'll take to update tho. Also, I did a quick test and selected Hide for "They/Them" and it hid your post. So maybe you have certain pronouns set to hide? (In which case it apparently hides the person?)

I've never been on a plane before. My grandfather's health is rapidly declining and I need to go to Florida with my five-year-old, who also happen to be autistic, from Colorado. I need advice on which airlines are good and how to actually do this.
