Future story so I won't spoil anything, but there's gonna be a moment where Ata says something feverishly which will break all of your hearts. At least I hope it does.

"Good news, everybody!"
🥰
I started a 5th story for #Raven+Bear. This prompt was from my sister-in-law who requested, and I quote, "how about a princess but she's not a princess".
🎭
This one is going to be so silly! So buckle up for this one!

Not too bad I've started writing the next story, it's going to be a very silly and funny one. Well hopefully it's funny. I have a hard time being funny so maybe not. I'm gonna try though!

I'm afraid #Raven+Bear doesn't really get too deep into the science of things. They're short stories so I don't often think too hard about it, but hey, maybe I'll do a parasitic monster soon. If you want my silly / political answer, I'd call England a parasitic entity.

For this #WIPSnips I have an excerpt from The Lake Hopper, my fourth story in #Raven+Bear. I'm really proud of this fight and the full scene is super cool. The monster is based on llamhigyn y dwr from modern Welsh folklore. Feel free to ask questions!

Happy to say I've not interacted with any people like that so far. I'd hope my knights have better taste than that. If you are one of the people described below though, you're banished. Get lost loser. You are not worthy of my regard. Avaunt cretin and caitiff, we'll have no words for thee!

Hello! Some cool stuff in #Raven+Bear would be spider silk. Pry, the doctor in Caer y Môn, uses it for binding wounds.
His name comes from Pry Copyn, which means spider in Welsh. I often put in jokes like that for myself.
That's about it, sorry.

No projects, though I have been considering a TTRPG for a number of years. It'd be a 4 stat system using a d100, with several types of encounters each with mechanical consequences to track during sessions. Though it's tricky to explain in a character limit.

Listen to the recordings I have out and ask questions. It helps me think of future stories. They're free as well, so diolch if you do.
Obviously compliments help too. I'm as vain a creature as any mortal and not immune to flattery. Tis my very hamartia.

Rest, recoup and read a book which has Victorian era syntax to make my brain chill out about my own writing quirks.
In this case it's Carmilla and boy howdy is it tough at times.
Good thing it's super gay.

I don't talk about this much, but it's a struggle to battle my compulsions. I can't let myself repeat words if they appear in the last few sentences. I often have to write around several issues like that which is exhausting. It makes me feel bitter about writing.

Proud! Also hyped for my knights to hear this fight scene from The Lake Hopper, it's the first time we see him lock in and it's badass. I'm also super excited to write "Of Dina and Dan", because the prompt for this came from my sister in law.

THIS, a thousand times THIS
If we can only have art from people who "aren't in it for the money" that means we can only have art from privileged middle-class dilettantes. Making art being a viable career is responsible for nearly all worthwhile art, and if it's not a viable career any more we will get drastically less of it.

Not started, still taking a break to read. Had some ideas though and done a little research on what I want to use for a castle in this kingdom. Can confirm the kingdom will be Morgannwg and the title will be Of Dina and Dan.

It's a happy one.

I'm afraid that Sir Corbyn would become a sensation. He wouldn't know about it, but he's a monster slayer with silver hair & a Scottish accent who is a very good dad. A skinny Geralt.
Ata would despise it because of people posting thirst edits of him.

If you want to cry, you can look up the story of that hero.
This #WIPSnips comes from Proof Heraldic, my second story in the #Raven+Bear collection. This is a real place in Wales and it's story is an interesting (if recent) part of Beddgelert's local folklore.
