Thomas pressed a hand against her forehead. She grabbed his wrist, digging in with her fingernails. He didn’t flinch. A sharp, lancing pain shot through her skull as the whole world was abruptly thrown into sharper focus. Penny bucked, kneeing him in the ribs as layers of spellwork peeled away. There was a sudden, terrifying, nauseating awareness of her brain as a collection of cells, a folded, fatty mass. The NDA had nestled in every crevice of cerebrum and cerebellum, and the Dragon of Loss tore it all away with the energy of a man rip-starting a chainsaw.
The clarity was so pure and so painful she almost came.

Sebastian and Joey do drugs and discuss their philosophies of business

He released the air in his lungs through is mouth, sighing as everything clicked back into place. The tension in his shoulders released as the overload of psychic pressure drained away. Joey Fitz regarded him with mingled amusement and interest.
“Thank you, Joey.”
“Yeah, no worries man. Call it even for me being late today.”
Sebastian shrugged. “If you insist. I’m not fussed about it. I’ve always admired that about you, actually, that you’re so invested in your people.”
“Hey, man, you invest in people and they invest back in you, know what I’m sayin’? You want people to treat you right, you gotta treat them right. Shit, that’s what’s wrong with half the world today is that folks in charge forgot how to treat people. The bigger you get the more people you gots to be kind to.”

aaaaaaaand it turns out the answer to "how TF did some guys with a ladder steal the French crown jewels" is "cuts to arts funding mean the Louvre is massively understaffed"

Niamh had a really bad day once and she's still not over it

##WIPSNIPS #urbanfantasy #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting

Such is her desperation that she barely feels the first ballista bolt. It pierces her left wing membrane and embeds itself three feet into the rock of the mountain. She tears free and the second punches into her abdomen, shattering a hip and pinning her to the cliff face. She strains against it, ignorant to the pain, focusing entirely on calling for her child.

“No!” She screams to the merciless sky. “Don’t hurt him! He’s a child! My son! My baby! Please! I love you! I love you! I love-“

The final bolt goes through her eye

Me at a writers retreat having other extremely skilled authors fix my draft in a way that will make the work flow: "Yes! This rules! Hahaha! Yes!!"

Me realizing that I have to actually apply those edits to the document now: "Wait. No. This sucks. What the fuck."

Relatable in a way that makes me kind of angry tbh

Della the Angry Goose @derlakernlins.bsky.social · 3d

Look, Thomas, not everybody hears 'soul-devouring death vortex' and thinks 'oh neat where do I get one'

#WIPSnips #urbanfantasy #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting

Thomas laughed. “Your magic court does trial by combat, doesn’t it?” He asked. “Two of us fight, one gets a lethal wound… we take out the whole pack of ‘em in one go. Distraction and weapon all in one tidy package.”
“I have people I care about in this city,” Niamh snapped. “I’m not suiciding for this.”
Thomas shrugged. “Suit yourself. Detonating is a perfectly reasonable solution, in my experience. These bodies start to go to shit once you hit 40. Shuck ‘em off, start again.”

Kimmy goes on an adventure with Joey! (adventures are fun right up until theyre horrible)

Whatever negotiations Joey thought they were going to get into were not going well. The captain didn’t seem to acknowledge the gun at his head and spat on the deck next to Joey’s feet. “How about you go fuck yourself.”
“For real?” Joey’s drawl was more bored than surprised. The whole scenario seemed small and unimportant to him. He’d done things like this before. Kimmy was surprised at the envy she felt. Niamh had always been so careful, there was a whole life out here that Kimmy could be living. More dangerous, sure, but… maybe that’s okay. Maybe that’s better than stagnation.
Instead of answering the man dodged to the side, making a bold and probably suicidal grab for Joey’s gun. Kimmy steeled herself to see death.

Did you know you can just book a house, invite some writers, and have your own writing retreat? Strange but true!

I have not yet had that problem yet because the only one ive listened to so far is The Power Of Myth, which is just two old professors nattering on about ritual and religion for four hours...

So ill let you know when I hit a spicy book on the audio list

Sometimes you go into a prophetic trance while holding a shotgun so you read the future in the shot spread and your own blood, nbd, real casual stuff

#WIPSNIPS #urbanfantasy #writingcommunity #writesky #booksky #amwriting

“What do you see?” John asked once she’d stopped mumbling and swearing.
Niamh made to put her hand on her forehead, then thought the better of wiping blood through her hair and rested her wrist there instead. It took her a minute to gather her thoughts and form them into words that might make sense to anyone else. “The big pattern just says secrets revealed, but that’s not necessarily us,” she said. She gestured at the tear she’d pointed out before. “That says it is us. Not just dragons in general, but you and me in particular.”
“And the blood?”
She grimaced. “Sorry about that. It’s a high drama sort of specialty, prophecy.”

While on my morning ruck I saw two wood ducks, a drake and a hen, sitting on a log and saying "beep, beep, beep" to one another very quietly. Birds are good.

Della the Angry Goose @derlakernlins.bsky.social · 7d

Yeah, I have to remind myself that when they act like something minor is the worst thing to ever happen to them, it may well be. They haven't had that many things happen yet.

I can say having a daily Up And Out routine has been great, especially for the older adhd one. Fingers crossed for yall

Della the Angry Goose @derlakernlins.bsky.social · 7d

Man I feel you. I get touched-out so easily and I have two extremely cuddly kids and by the end of every day I want to peel off my skin. There isnt a solution other than "have someone else do the work for a while," and lol, lmao, there isnt anyone else.

“Hey old man,” he chirped as he slung his backpack off his shoulder and lowered it gently to the floor. “How’s it hangin? Anything hangin at all these days? I’m not sure how you vampires do, you don’t gotta screw to make more of you, maybe you ain’t got a dick no more.”
Cassius’s eyes were bright with rage. The corded muscles inside his shoulders tensed and flexed, his hands grasping in little spasms.
“Boy,” he rasped. His fangs were fully extended now, causing the unattractive lisp that afflicted so many blood-drinkers. “Demon-ridden. Free me. I don’t care what lies this whelp has told you. Free me. Free me and I’ll owe you a thousand debts. You and your master.”
