Friday WIP Snippet!

Is this a real event? well, I just invented now, so it could be? I just wanted an excuse to share this snippet from my wip Entangled 👾

Transcript:

"So you two are…" He said pointing at the two. "There aren't many words that truly encapsulate the complexity of our relation." Exo stated and Faer seemed to be agreeing with every word. "We are close friends, colleagues, partners, but our relation is not bound by society standards of romance and sexuality."

Yes, Exo and Faer are canonically in a queer platonic relationship <3 Happy pride!

Around the edges of the river, near the left and right banks, a more gruesome sight was to behold. Long green eel-like fish sat unmoving with their mouth wide open just over the water line. Their bodies were covered in long bone and glass structures that anchored them to the stones and dirt below. They looked dead. And based on the readings of Exo and Faer's helmets, they emitted a smell akin to rot and decay. The two would have believed it was a sad case of mass death across this school of fish, if it wasn't for the occasional sudden closing of their mouths and readjustment of their position. Exo zoomed in the camera drone onto those peculiar fish and discovered something fascinating. "They are attracting flying insect with that smell and eating them. Similar to carnivorous plants."

Thanks for the tag, @winterandwords! I'm thinking of doing some editing of Bite Me, so here is part of the new chapter 1! Warning for dead body and blood.

And then...

She felt her knees give out.

Summer laid across the floor. She almost looked like a centerpiece for the hideous display, her throat leaking red. She held a knife and her head was haloed by blood. Her empty eyes were accusing.

You did this. You left her.

Melody had the faint sensation of arms wrapping around her, trying to get her to turn away, but she refused.

I'll tag, with no pressure, @aziz-reads, @space-writes, @chauceryfairytales, @ark-inkweaving, @ieppiq,

When they opened their main door out, the two were greeted by rich plant life and hard soil. Since it was right next to their ship, they didn't plan on taking samples of it right away. Scouting the nearby areas was more important. The two stuck together as they explored the plains around them, noticing a lot of insects and flora. They approached the rain-forest that surrounded them and began carving a way for them to watch through, yet still trying their best not to disturb things too much. The trees around them were thick and tall and heavy with foliage of a bright and saturated green. Some of them had spike like structures made of glass that seemed fused into the carbon-based bark - a very clear sign that this planet was carbon-silicon based.

I know advertising in pride month can smack of rainbow capitalism, but hear me out: I am not A Rainbow Capitalism. I’m a queer professional freelance editor with five years of experience, here to celebrate and polish queer stories throughout the fruitiest month of the year (and all year round). From now until July 1st, you can get 15% off any of my single editing services so long as:

a) you have a story that’s longer than 10,000 words, and

b) there is some flavour of queerness in there that’s relevant to the story (i.e, more relevant than the off-page second cousin of your main character being mentioned as gay in an otherwise cishet cast).

Rest assured that I won’t ask you to share or ““prove”” your own identity unless you want to tell me, because that’s none of my business and also gatekeeping sucks.

Plus, this discount stacks – so if you’re also eligible for one of my self-published author discounts of 10% (30,000–99,999 words) or 15% (100,000 words or more), you can get a nice 25–30% off.

I can edit:

UK or US English (+ I do my best to factor currency conversion into the rates for international clients)

Fiction – SF/F is my happy place, but all genres are welcome.

Creative non-fiction – e.g., memoir, biography, essays and essay collections.

Middle Grade through to Adult.

If you’re not quite ready for editing but think you will be within the next two months, you can secure an editing slot with this discount now and use it later (ideally before September 1st, but I do understand writing doesn’t always happen when you want it to; just be aware that if you don’t pre-book my services for a specific time or if you need to re-schedule the edit, you may need to wait until I’m available again).

If you’re interested (or just have questions), check out my services page and get in touch:

“Authors should not be ALLOWED to write about–” you are an anti-intellectual and functionally a conservative

“This book should be taken off of shelves for featuring–” you are an anti-intellectual and functionally a conservative

“Schools shouldn’t teach this book in class because–” you are an anti-intellectual and functionally a conservative

“Nobody actually likes or wants to read classics because they’re–” you are an anti-intellectual and an idiot

“I only read YA fantasy books because every classic novel or work of literary fiction is problematic and features–” you are an anti-intellectual and you are robbing yourself of the full richness of the human experience.

Your mystery question is here! :)

Rainbow: What is your character's preferred aesthetic and style?

Thank you for the mystery question!!!

I have to respond to this with Morticia, the MC of my beloved wip Project Soulstealer.

Her aesthetic style is a mishmash of emo, metal and goth as she is part of all three subcultures. But she's also a punk and an anarchist so that reflects in her style too. Most of her wardrobe is second hand or handmade stuff she put together from various different sources.

Morticia is the kind of person to go to one of those stores that sell construction materials to grab new chain necklaces for her and her friends (something inspired by my own experience lol)

She has a lot of band and political patches on her backpack, jackets and pants.

I really need to draw her in this style cuz it's so crisp in my mind but i struggle to fully put it into works (i know i'm a writer, my brain just ain't today)

Entangled Chapter 2 Snippet

====================

Remind me again, why do we have to kiss the academy's ass every time we write a report?" Faer groaned while fixing one of the survey equipments that the two would soon be using to collect data on planet LFD-0187. Despite her massive build and equally massive hands, her blue fingers moved swiftly and precisely, calibrating the machine and replacing the broken bits and bobs.

Exo let out a chuckle before stretching their bright white wings. "Ass-kisser-y is the only thing keeping researchers like us from being kicked out."

"Researchers like us?"

"Rebellious and actually curious about what lies beyond the explored galaxies. The academy, as prestigious as it tries to appear, was built on the labour of mindless androids who got recycled into rubbish the moment a rogue thought formed in their carefully monitored brains." They carefully rubbed one of their eyes with their feathers covered arm. "But hey, we do get away with a lot by not being synthetics. Imagine someone zapping your brains out just because."
