This book has been such a passion project of mine, and I hope that you all love it as much as I loved writing it. #WriteSky #BookSky #DebutAuthor #AuthorSky #WritingCommunity

It will be available through a few different platforms: Apple, B&N, Bookshop org, Everand, Fable, Kobo, Overdrive, Smashwords, Tolino, and Vivlio.
It's currently in a small limbo because I'm waiting for D2D to verify my tax info, but once it does, TPotH will be LIVE!
I hope you're all excited
Soooo...guess what yall. I know I've been away for quite some time. But I wanted to let you all know that my debut book is FINISHED. (and I'm no longer publishing through KDP, but we'll get to that...) Yes, it's FINISHED! Edited, formatted, double, triple, quadruple checked...DONE!
Y'all. They Prey on the Haunted will be out May 1st of next year! I am so so excited for this book to be with you all and for you to read it. Pre-orders will open in the next few days. I'll keep you updated!
idk if anyone's on Threads, but feel free to find me on there as well? @ / evictormay
going to a play today. so probably not going to get any writing done. oops
All the "you"'s in my story. literally i think i just need to name my main character at this point rather than just keep her as "You". I get that i was trying to make her more relatable to the reader by BEING the reader but idk if it's working at this point lol
out there, and just let anyone read it. I am not rich by any means whatsoever, but I feel like I don't need to make money off of my writing for various reasons. I dunno, Am I the only one thinking this? What's everyone's thoughts on this? #WriteSky #Booksky #AuthorSky #WritingCommunity
I'm sure a lot of writers/authors AREN'T like this, and would love to make money off of their writing, which is 100% valid. I am not trying to say that we as writers and authors SHOULDN'T be making money off our work if we want to. I'm just saying that I personally just want to put my work (2/?)
I feel like I'm very much in the minority when it comes to this, but when I AM ready to publish TPonH, I want it to be free for all to read. I don't want to make a single cent off it. In fact, I want ALL my books to be that way, no matter how many books I publish. (1/?)
I have so many book ideas floating around in my head. I'm genuinely trying to ONLY work on They Prey on the Haunted rn but like, I wanna write all the girl kissing books lol
Gosh now I feel lucky it's 10 degrees here! may you stay warm!
(Bit late to responding but) I would like to improve my actual like, writing time? I had a goal of getting my first book out by Halloween, and well. that failed. Now I'm aiming for sometime this upcoming Spring maybe? I'm trying to give myself grace...and actual time lol
The #WIPSnips word for December 14th is "line"
#WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
Morning came with the expected bright red sea sunlight through the windows, making the round living room gleam like the inside of an industrial smelter oven. Vela rolled over in bed and savored the sun a little. It would stay sunny till noon if the low pressure cell stays stable through the morning blaze. She finally hurdled herself up, stretched and begann to dress. Padded pants and a red top for the bike ride later. The ledger displayed the approximate position and slowly plotted a path best suited for the bike on the sand-colored faux-paper map. Vela eyed the dotted line while gnawing on a protein bar she had (re-)discovered on the table. A small warning sign popped up - (!) Rough terrain. Remember to wear a kinetic barrier - "Yea yea" Vela mumbled, closed the tome and slipped it into a clunky backpack. The bike stood propped up in the small plasticrete cellar below, one wall to the slope was exposed with a rolling gate, and the embedded AI core and powersupply in the opposite wall. Vela grabbed the kinetic barrier from it's mount on the core, a small round white handsized device, and wedged it between her back and pack. She started the bike and its hybrid engine hummed to life. The gate opened and she drove out into the flood of orange light over whisping seafog.
My snip of today for the word: line
Rodario's first flight on a serpent. They are heading to Veltharyn, City of Dragon Riders

Black text, green background, “line” highlighted blue Finally, Elise emerged from digging through a cabinet with a snow globe. She sighed. "If only we could find an eligible young rooster with this thing." Shin snorted at the "eligible" and "young," but covered it with a sneeze. "Sorry, Shin's allergic to feathers." "You're in the wrong LINE of work, young man," Odelette said, as Elise turned the snow globe over and over.
Odelette, one of the three French Hens, probably has a point. After all, Shin’s job is to look after the animals of Christmasland

Not exactly "line" but "masculine". My current project is a prose poetry book about sapphic love and monsters <3 #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
So if anyone has DM'd me, and I haven't gotten to you in 2 months I PROMISE I wasn't ignoring you, I just never got around to age verification lol.
Also book updates soon. Be on the lookout.
WOW. so...hi everyone. I haven't been on here in. 2 months? Tbh, I just kind of forgot about Bksy? I saw that I had to do age verification for my DMs and I was like...I'll do that later, and then just, never came back to do it. But I'm back. And I'll do that so i can get to my DMs.

I'm doing daily vlogs now if anyone's interested in watching lol
(4/4) it's just something that's always been a goal of mine. I am an artist through and through. And I am determined that this project WILL be my first published work. I want it to be perfect for my readers, and so, if it takes more time than i initially anticipated, then so be it.
-Vic.
(3/?) before Halloween. Which sucks. Because it's set around Halloween time and i was really hoping to get the book done in time for it. Luckily i'm self publishing so it's not like i have a set deadline or anything, but it sucks still.
I've always wanted to say I'm a published author. (cont)
(2/?) no, it's more like...a novella? A poetry novella? It's taking a lot more time than i ever imagined it would take. The story itself is so much more in depth than I thought it'd be. There's layers. It's not just poems, it's a journey.
I'm starting to think this thing won't be done (cont)
I thought this project was going to be a small chapbook style poetry book. I thought that it would be done BEFORE Halloween. (and by done i mean written, edited, published, EVERYTHING!) I thought it'd be 20 pages at the most.
I'm still developing the story. It's not quite like a chapbook...(cont)
"Allison.
Your heart would beat faster,
If it still beat,
But now you just felt a haunted feeling,
In your chest,
A flurry of ghosts within what remains of you.
You couldn’t let anything happen to her.
You knew you had to help her.
You knew you had to haunt her."
