Congrats! I see they listed MoKaM but in my heart it's for Cohaku!

And I wrote that her god's domain involves frivolity and revelry, so drinking and smoking are basically her religion 😅

My new #DnD character is a cleric who smokes and uses Cure Wounds to heal her lungs

If anyone? Tiell.

She was a grouch, but she was coming around. And she was the last one poor Shri could talk to

Yeah my wife picked up oil painting recently and this is a BIG warning for newbies lol

Yeah I think you're 100% right. Spice, like genre, is a marketing term

If you sold MoKaM as "spicy" you'd get torches and pitchforks from the romance readers

The singular "they" has been around longer than English has had codified grammar, so really, anyone who fumes about it can go fuck themself

Easily some of the most worldbuilding work I've seen in a long time, the world is rich and dense.

Speaking of dense, so is the story. The cast is endearing and expansive. I found myself wanting more time with some of them.

Good thing we have sequels!

HOT TAKE (not a hot take)

I finished book 1 of this series two days ago and it was GOOD

And I'm BUYING BOOK 2

Now that this draft is done, I:

A. Don't know what to do with myself until I'm ready for edits

B. Finally have an accurate handle. Joe has written BOOKS instead of One Book and Three Half-Assed Starts

Tyvm!

And with a brief wrap-up chapter complete, that's draft 1 of my second book DONE

Here I wrote my first romantic subplot (is it good? time will tell), my first horror novel, all in a 55k manuscript that needs to be fleshed out a bit in edits

Very happy with the work I've done though
