Is Hell a place, or a state of mind?

This companion novella to ALiCE further explores Mickey's history with both Woodrow Children's Asylum and Wonderland, and the role Christopher played in making these places equally bearable and torturous.

WHiTE RABBiT is now available for preorder! (I'm using the Amazon link for ease of access, but if you understandably do not want to purchase through Amazon, WHiTE RABBiT is available anywhere you can buy ebooks.)

Currently reading The Devil in the Woods by @earlronove and uhhhh REALLY wanting to know what happened in those damn woods (I'm on page 45ish?)

Also Charlie/Vivian and Felix/Jaden are top tier but right now my main ship is Felix/A soft blanket and a good night's sleep.

Thank you for using writeblr library services!

Browsing: What's something your character is looking for? Will they ever find it?

@did-i-do-this-write I completely forgot this was still in my inbox. I could have sworn I'd already answered it. Whoops! Anyway, I was going to do a die roll and answer this with one of my currently existing characters in my stories. But instead of that, I'm going to go with my current story hyperfixation MC, Minna.

Minna, also known as Clone 3 of my 12 Dancing Princesses retelling (here's my post for the summary and current poll for it), is just looking for her purpose. There has to be something other than being an experiment, than being the disappointment of her family, than being her sisters' secret protecter. She just wants what her friends from school have, the freedom to go out and discover who they are.

Someday, she'll get her wish. Buuut, it is a whump story, so it'll be a while till that happens. :)

Mydite’s twin brother abandoned the family as soon as he had the opportunity, and her older half sister has been missing for decades. She hasn’t felt sibling love in ages. She’s been desperately searching the mortal world for her brother while keeping an eye out for her sister.

I’m not far along enough in the story to know what will happen with Mydite, but I’m going to try my damn hardest to give her some happiness.

Hello hello! This is the writeblr library's librarian with some questions. You can choose to do question one, question two, or both! (and there's no time limit btw <3) Have fun!

-will be reblogged onto the writeblr library

What inspired your WIP? Was it another piece of media? Multiple pieces of media? A certain genre? Tropes? Parts of your life? A hyper-specific random thing?

What environment gives you the best ideas for your WIP? Do you have a playlist? Do you go for a walk? Do you get ideas at 3am and have to write them down NOW otherwise they disappear? Do you write anywhere and anywhere? What gets you in the mood to write?

Hiya! Since is for the Writeblr Library I'm going to be answering for Midnight Madness (as so far it's the only one I've added to the library)

For Question#2, the best environment for ideas is...literally anywhere, lol. I can be doing almost anything and then suddenly IDEA. I can be reading. I can be playing a game. I can be staring at the wall. I DO have a playlist I've been trying to curate primarily around the characters themselves, as music will often help me. Sometimes the songs themselves give me the idea.

And it's funny you should mention 3AM as, as it stands, Midnight Madness was called that because I think it was going on 2AM and I couldn't sleep, got an idea, and decided to write it down. It became a snippet that got some attention, which encouraged me to flesh out the whys and hows behind the moment itself (which was also primed by a song on repeat). That led to fleshing out Lyra as a character and I'm...still working on the rest of it, lol.

I actually have specific spots to write. I've got one setup in my room, and one in the living room by the front windows. The one in my room is sort of a catch-all space for anything on the computer, while the one in the living room is specifically set up for working on writing.

And as for mood, I really have no idea anymore lol. Things that help, tho, are the right music (usually loud enough in my ears to drown out noise from the mental "literary critics" room), the scent and taste of coffee, and oftentimes burning some incense. Also helps when it's nice enough outside that I can open the windows. Ahhh fresh air.

But most times getting into the mood to write isn't the issue. It's figuring out which project I want to work on, what it needs, if I can give it attention, and of course, where I want to start on the scene I've just sat down to write.

Your face is a masterpiece and your heart is an experience.

And when they asked me how I knew it was love, I simply told them; I craved for your company more than I craved for my solitude.

Wanna' come back to my place? I was thinking you might pierce my heart and spill its blood in a frenzy of barbarous delight.

Father Ardelian has been summoned to a distant, secluded island to perform an exorcism. What will happen when he begins to suspect his host — the mysterious, nocturnal lord of the manor — of wanting him for another reason entirely? Will the piously celibate priest be able to resist the monster’s diabolically seductive charms?

What Manner of Man is a queer gothic romance novel about a priest and a vampire, inspired by Dracula Daily.
