Oh, the Medusa story sounds incredible like all your ideas

Well thank you, girlie!! I'm pretty excited about it.

I have this weird weariness toward statues, especially as the sun goes down... so as I was staring at the statue my roommate has in the living room, trying not to think about how creepy it made me feel, the idea came to me xD

Sabezra week starts in some hours and I still have lots of unfinished wips LOL and actually, the ones ready are for the later days like mission you, reunion, kiss XD but I'll finish them today (it's already November 14th in my country's timezone). Yesterday, nov 13th, was the start of this new weekend and also my birthday! That's the reason I spent the weekend without actually being able to write XD also, college stuff at the whole noon at friday stole my time, but it was a exercise: wild life rescuing, triage, survey and releasing back to the wild capacity training. It was amazing helping those little ones return to the nature 🌱 I love biology so much🥺 but now, back to my bluebean babies!!

Hi! What are you currently working on? Can I have a random fun fact about the world or one of the characters?

I am currently working on a fantasy NA trilogy that I’ve been world building for ten years. It’s very much my brain baby and I’m constantly going between being super excited about the fact I’m writing it finally and wanting to throw up because I’m so nervous about it.

Some fun facts about two of the characters: Ingvir and Marja Suomi are sisters who live in the far northeastern realm of the kingdom of Earunne. Their favorite pastime is diving naked off the glacial cliffs in the winter and swimming in the frozen sea of the fjords. In summer they accompany their father and the other men on the traditional whale hunts of their culture and managed to bring in a narwhal on their own which earned them an unbelievable amount of respect. They also make jewelry and combs from whalebone and sew their own dresses from seal skins. Because of their affinity for the cold and the frozen sea, there’s a myth about the women of their family that they secretly turn into seals when the moon is full so they can swim farther out and dive deeper under the ice. They adhere to the same animistic religion and worship the land like other noble northern families, and their sacred sites are hidden coves and caverns along the coast.

oh, the next dress for Xiani in Ballads of Empires has me in a chokehold. She is about to become her true self and embrace her full heritage and rank and you all are not ready for it. And I mean alone the description for it. And I may add that the next snippet to post either will be violence or fluff or both.

favorite WIP you've written so far?

I’ve got four WIPs that I have something written for, as in some scenes, worldbuilding, something on paper that’s not just nebulous thoughts:

Note, all of these including the stuff I’ve written and more detailed descriptions can be found in my pinned post, right at the top when you click on my blog!

Circa Specturgia - My main WIP, the name of this blog, a high fantasy story set in a world with plenty of echoes of the ancient past, many secrets, and a hard magic system! A cast of varied motivations, goals, and an echo from the past that keeps growing louder. Travel across the planet to the different nations and beautiful regions, exploration of the reman ants and ruins of history long forgotten.

Prometheus - Sci fi/horror/psychological, I guess you could call it. The team of an experimental faster-than-light vessel experience an odd occurrence that lands them outside the observable universe, ie space beyond the threshold of what is visibly earth, with no known sway of returning home. A heavy focus on the team itself as they explore that alien space, the stresses of being so far from home, and the horrors to be found when you go looking in places where the universe would rather you not…

Lost & Found - Things are rarely as they really seem. Perception is a powerful thing, and what people see and what they believe are very often intertwined concepts. Those who find this truth are able to see the world in a different way, one that lets them see those things that are real and those that are just lies, and illusions, working to ensure that these don’t tip the scales. Lily Maradona had always been a part of this world, but only now does she step into it fully, and travels the world with those she meets along the way. Psychological, horror, character focused with some very weird paranormal/paranatural events and experiences…

Untitled WIP - The apocalypse was bad. Sure. But that was a LONG time ago. Sure, there are still some memories of it etched into the world, massive chasms, canyons, irradiated lands, bunkers overgrown with plant life, but the world has begun to heal. Nature takes back those places once scarred with war and death, growing beautiful roses from the red blood spilled in the earth. And what better thing for a group of teens to do than to drive a kick ass omniwheel car and scavenge the ruins of the old world for physical books? This WIP is based against a post I stumbled on and had a whole idea for in the span of a few hours. I link it in my pinned post, feel free to read my ramble there!

As for which is my favorite…? That’s a hard question, as there are elements of all of them that I adore, from characters to story to worldbuilding that I’m proud of, but I’d have to say that my favorite is Circa Specturgia, it’s my first and longest running WIP and just holds a special place in my heart ✨

Thanks for this ask @writersandpoetsunited! ✨

Finally finished my TaiBani artpiece for one of the events I'm participating (posting on October) and now I can focus on the other two wips. First of all, my original character from my current WIP. Jdnfufnfjgmf that one I can post. After that, I'll continue with "Barnaby's thirst" series.

Also, next weekend I have another destiel bang claim as an artist so more bang art is waiting for me! Yay!

[ilovedthestars]

there really are few emotions i find more compelling in a story than "you should be afraid of me. please don't be afraid of me"

every few months i remember how cool his design is

[moondust-bard]

Well, moonbeams, my series of interconnected romantasy standalones has a series title now! I plan to announce it soon in the wip intro. Until then, check the hashtags for a hint!

[writinginslowmotion]

Any lost girls fun facts?

Sure! Here are a few:

Jenny is the last of the Lost Girls to become part of the group

She has a very dark and messy past, and not even the audience understands how dark and messy until much later

Erica's mother passed away when she was young, so she and her father helped raise her (younger) twin siblings.

I took one more covid vaccine today, and it feels like I left my arm back into the medical healthcare center, for real😩 my arm is so heavy and sore, can't really lift it up lol but it's important to stay safe!! So it's worth the sacrifice of the pain lol. But!! I came here to show that I'm in the middle of my sabezra fic and OH MY, IT'S A LONG HISTORY

I was already planning on splitting up, but now it's more like a reaall need. I'll probably finish it today (I really hope I do!! I have other wips I already started for the other 2 days!) This fanfic was made by the prompt of day 1 (missions) and also today's prompt!! I'll try finishing quickly!!

Also, I was HEAVILY inspired in one of my oldest and FAVORITES MCU couples (injusticed couple actually 😩😭 they never really became canon for the suffering of my heart 💔)

I've been writing this for maybe 3 days (but it wasn't nonstop so I guess that's okay? 🤷🏻‍♀️) but anyway! Let me finish this!
