I’ve never shared what my WIP is about. I shouldn’t call it WIP but it is still nurtured before being queried or, who knows, self-published. If you’re curious, this is a thread 🧵 that will help you decipher better by #WIPSnips 😁 opinions about this blurb or other thoughts is welcome.

I'm finally done. Book 8 of the series.
Took me more than a year to finish. It's about 113k words. Among all those words, my personal favorites are...

"Call when you need us. I'm happy to punch Nazis at any given time.”

I buried myself in another revision and disappeared from socials. Now the manuscript is back in the hands of some readers for feedback. Always scary. Exciting. Scary. Did I say scary? #writingcommunity #writesky #queerauthors

Oh this is nice. The in-between in my world is white. Multiple levels of realities are separated by barriers only few can cross (duh, chosen ones blah blah). Between the barriers there’s pure white, absence and calm. Except for scary Guardians that linger in there.

Hello, #NovemberWorldbuilders friends!
We're in COLORS week! Tell me about something in your world that's WHITE. Have you used it symbolically? Any special white clothes, rocks, animals, or magical artifacts you'd like to talk about?

I ended many sides of me for fear of not succeeding.
Most times it happens for fear of rejection and need for control.
If that ever stopped your creativity you need to fight that voice otherwise it will always win.
Be creative 😉 you can do whatever you want!

Anyhow here is something dark and spooky for spooky season.

Short snip because holy shit, spoilers. But I don't have many hats in my wips & this one is iconic (to me 😂).

To be clear, this is NOT a normal outfit here.

From #Tenement, my dystopian mystery about people living in an infinite building.

G'morning #WIPSnips. Got a bit of hat play for you here from clipper, as Sam is still adjusting to his new environment in this particular early scene.

What’s the most unhinged talent or power you’ve read in a story?
In my story, Elp’da exist to influence realities with knowledge for shared growth.
They can swap bodies with people from other dimensions. But if that person dies, they stay with that face forever.

They were very similar to pines, their base was of a dark green that could be mistaken for blue, and then they shaded towards violet, purple and finally a glowing pink tip.
More in alt.

Hi!

I am trying to open a conversation where more characters can be used. Writing Divergently is about a neurodivergent and queer perspective about topics like… the barber shop 😅

Have a look if you’re #gay, #queer, #neurodivergent
