I've not written as much as I wished this month either. Meaning nothing, aha... ha

Swedish. It made sense for the setting, but because I want to share it online I have to re-write it in English

Hello! I'm Aurora, a fantasy writer writing a series. Current WIP is set in a high fantasy world with three friends going on an adventure.

This is the 1st draft a 2nd time because I'm re-writing it in English. It's difficult but I persist #FirstDraftFall #WeeknightWriters

#QueerPrompts

It depends on the reader's take. The narrator is like 1, the friends are a 10, so it depends on what you take from it.

It is part of a series, so it won't have a satisfying ending for the characters,

A setting #moodboard for my #WIP. Trollbyn is where we start our adventure. It's a village in the woods near the mountains in the east of Birke, a land inspired by Nordic folk tales.

“She makes death taste like chocolate.” Picture of a girl in a white dress in a dark lake with her arm over her chest and white roses over her torso. “Grave of flowers by Dua Ceren Ay”

Grave of Flowers by Dua Ceren Ay Opening Lines: Every sane person knows better than to paint their walls eggshell white, but electric blue? That had to be a crime. Like whoever decided on the color scheme of this place was avoiding the topic altogether; yes, we were all crazy in here, and yes, we all knew they wanted to avoid the clichés. So, no straitjackets, no padded rooms, no dull hospital gowns, just rooms and rooms and rooms of color until we bored ourselves to sleep or knocked ourselves out from the overstimulation. We had Kelsie the high schooler folks who had become regulars around here liked to call Iron Fist—to thank for that demonstration. It was just that the windows didn't open from the bottom, everything had a soft edge or lock, and the nurses had a way of always smiling at us as if we birthed their children. It was the little things that poked me. So it was even more ridiculous that the early morning hour made the place seem... peaceful.

Comps. A Flicker in The Dark by Stacy Willingham: past repeats itself, small town, investigation. The Midnight Library by Matt Haig: Depressed MC, Magical Realism, Healing and new beginnings. Anxious people by Fredrik Backman: dysfunctional group of friends, social isolation, hope

Tropes: found family, unreliable narrator, treasure hunt/investigation, lost memories, small town. Themes: second coming-of-age, feminism, identity, overcoming trauma, friendship

On an island quietly haunted by ghosts of grieving women, a depressed chocolatier teams up with five strangers—with scars of their own—to find their killer. Of the six, only five are really alive.

#QueerPrompts

I wrote one chapter in wbw. That's one more chapter than existed before!

My disney/fairy tales inspired D&D campaign is going swell. Group is great and engaged,

Creative wise, a good month!

#QueerPrompts

"Don't think too much about it, or it will break."

#QueerPrompts

In WBW, schools aren't too common. Our MCs live in a small village where it's common one inherits their craft. A family of blacksmiths, cobblers, witches, etc, with some travelling outliers.

#QueerPrompts

That would be Jake with the most crushes. He's one of the few characters who's not aro and will have two crushes throughout the series.

Most other characters are both ace and aro, so there's little of that.

#QueerPrompts

I'm very loose with goals due to easily being burnt out, but I hope to build a consistent writing habit. Maybe once every other day or once a week? I'd love to finish wbw within a year.

First draft! I'd love to finish the first draft within a year!

#QueerPrompts

#QueerPrompts

Birke has five seasons, and the story starts in the season between Winter and Spring.

The five seasons are from old norse with two winter seasons.

#QueerPrompts

Wendy has had peace her whole life and longs for adventure. She grew up hearing about the life her aunt had and wants the same. Adina is from another land and doesn't live in the village, but visits whenever her travels bring her there.

Oliver is just. There

#QueerPrompts

WBW is set in a land where nature is sacred, so they all would.

Oliver would be keen on helping animals, Wendy would help the fauna, and Adina would drive out what is hurting them.

#QueerPrompts

I grew up a girl and I like feminine things but don't like gender roles and shiver at being referred to as a woman. I want to be a dad not a mum, I want to be a bride not a groom.

Found ace at 18. Thought I was lesbian at 25; was not. Thus, ace queer.

#longstoryshort

:O amazing

#QueerPrompts

Adina's biggest love is herself. She knows her worth and won't allow anyone to step over her. She stands by her principles, bails when she isn't treated right, won't allow anything to stop her from achieving what she wants, and will murder anyone attacking what she holds dear: friends

Hello! If you followed me for a #steddie post I recommend my tumblr where I post short scenes and have a tag for my #steddiefanfic pluttskutt.tumblr.com/tagged/ninni...

#QueerPrompts

My book has a main cast of ace and aro characters, so this rep can not be found in my series.

I apologies for changing pfp every time I come on here. It will happen again

#QueerPrompts

WBW starts in Birke, a land inspired by old Norse culture and legends. Two of the MC's are part of that culture. One of them is descendant from a bloodline of blacksmiths, and the other is from a bloodline of witches.

can't decide on a pfp for the life of me. every time i go on here i wanna switch it up
