Today's #WIPSnips? #Trail. I chose a long snippet, because #Silenus doesn't deserve to have the stage pulled out from under him. He joins a scene where Erik's reality truly steps from the shadows, unveiling itself as something... different.

Today's #WIPSnips is #spell.
Erik's hard-won vacation time is disrupted when he finds out demonic hit squads are coming for his loved ones. Meanwhile, unrelated, equally murderous and vengeful sirens are out for HIS blood. Rough vacation. 😮💨

Today's #WIPSnips word is #gradient.
From my #novella WIP, "A Proper 'Goose Pilfers." The delightful, #nonbinary Aussie thief #Goose meticulously plans their next hair color decision. Priorities!

The #WIPSnips for the day is #charge.
Here, Erik and his brother meet with a contracted #Mythical, a #Hound. She's a tracker who has cornered #Wolfe's tormentor, Katerina. There's a complication, and this mama bear could die on her hill.

Today's #WIPSnips is #second.
In this scene, #Baku, the being who first heralded the changes in Erik's life and his future as #Wolfe, is about to offer an #accord. Erik cannot delay and consult with #Lykaios. It is his decision to make.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today's #WIPSnips word is #ultimate. In this scene, Erik is on his way to meet the #Keepers, and Anna is teaching him about them. Normally prim and proper, she seems to have unchained a wild and silly side that Erik finds he likes very much.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today, the #WIPSnips word is #push. We meet Erik's next-door neighbor, a quiet ex-military man with a rose garden, who harbors more #secrets than a video game guide in the '90s. Erik needs to find out what the man might know about #Wolfe.

The #WIPSnips post for the day centers around #hope. Here, a violent battle was fought by a vanguard of the #Organization, while Jonathan, Anna, and Erik remained a relatively safe distance back. When asked how such battles are covered up...
#Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
#WIPSnips of the day is #welcome. My #UrbanFantasy universe of #Mythicals has a governing body all supernatural entities are beholden to: The #Keepers. Erik sets out to meet them for the first time, with the flirtatious #seer Anna acting as his guide.
#Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
#WIPSnips of the day is #Prize. From my #UrbanFantasy, Begging Your Pardon, Mister Wolfe:
Puckish #Lykaios has some strange coping techniques for her fear of flying. Erik finds insight into her sudden change in behavior, but isn't sure how to act on it.
#Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today's #WIPSnips was #dungeon. Synonym: #prison is my chosen word.
Here, #Wolfe's 'pack' has seen glimpses through Jonathan's smokescreen of plausible deniability. The 'gangsters' out to get Erik have become too convenient in Kenna's eyes.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today's #WIPSnips is #safe.
In this #scene, Anna and Erik are headed for a swim when a suspiciously timed disaster strikes. Erik decides to take a big #risk, subtly displaying #superhuman powers to save a life. Anna briefly chides him.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today's #WIPSnips word is #miss. Erik and his brother Jonathan are both reflective, but for different reasons...
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today's #WIPSnips is #store.
#Wolfe is adrift after a series of misadventures. Erik is reflecting on what amounts to trust born from desperation, as an odd pair of allies help him try to find his footing against the rising tides of fate.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
#CONTENT WARNING: NUDITY🌶️
Today's #WIPSnips is #hunt. I chose a #snip from my 2nd #book in the #Wolfe series. Here, while Erik sleeps, he learns more about his enemies from a frustrated and annoyed #Lykaios on a dreamscape tropical island.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
Today's #WIPSnips is #salmon. As predicted by the OP, none of my works in progress have the word. I went with #fish.
Jonathan, accustomed as he is to #Mythicals, is still disturbed by Prima's demands. Erik has already dismissed them.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
CONTENT WARNING: LOW-DETAIL GUN VIOLENCE
Today's #WIPSnips word was #river. The inexplicable presence of an operative calling himself John Doe provides a little clarity (but even more questions) when a would-be Fatalis assassin is thwarted.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
I can't lie: chasing this dream feels like a very stupid move, some days. I know I wrote a compelling story, and I know my planned universe is expansive and interlinked in a delightful way, but ... I wonder how many people will want to experience it. So far, it's less than ten.
🐺
#BYPMW #OftDTftW
Today's #WIPSnips is #paw. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that the word is present in a book with #Wolfe as a main character.
Within his dreams, Erik transforms into a wolf for the first time, racing #Lykaios, overwhelmed with pure joy.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
🐺
CONTENT WARNING: VIOLENCE
Yesterday's #WIPSnips was #bear. #Wolfe is beset on multiple sides by un-aligned aggressors. Erik needs to get to the ship's bridge control center. Unfortunately, armed opposition stands between him and his goal.

#WIPSnips from yesterday: #ink.
Deja vu? You probably saw this before. The original was unprofessional, so I'm re-posting it.
Here, 2 of the Fatalis demons hunting Erik's friends confront him, parking their #Ferrari at a highway rest stop.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
#CONTENT WARNING: GRAPHIC VIOLENCE AND BLOOD
Today's #WIPSnips is #swift. No time for quick #edits on it—it's as raw as when it was initially #written. Here, #Wolfe takes on the first Fratelli assassins sent to claim the lives of his friends.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
#CONTENT WARNING: #VIOLENCE AND GORE
My #WIPSnips, #mire, had to slightly expand to #quagmire.
Here, #Wolfe has been engaged at a highway rest stop by 4 #Mythical assassins, to the fierce delight of #Lykaios. In contrast, Erik feels harrowed.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
With the word of the day, #absorb, #WIPSnips brought us to one of the most #iconic moments in my entire universe so far—the 'rebirth' of #Wolfe in Begging Your Pardon, Mister Wolfe.
Erik should be killed in the explosion. Instead, he's reborn.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
I know what I need to do.
*stares at his 90,000-word manuscript*
I need to reduce the droning normalcy in the first two chapters of Begging Your Pardon, Mister Wolfe.
I just need to summon the strength to give it the scalpel.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
#WIPSnips for today is #leave.
Here, Lykaios paces a small desert island's sands, shocked/offended at the audacity of the Mythicals who pursue Erik, now that he is Wolfe. She explains the reasoning for going on the offensive against Fatalis.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
Today's #WIPSnips word, #skill, pulled a continuation of an earlier entry. It expounds upon Anna's 'curse' of precognition and Erik's physical training with Lykaios in the dreamscape to become a better martial artist.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPMW #OftDTftW
Monday's #WIPSnips came at me in a #flurry. Here, we have 'Goose displaying their alacrity as they take the reins in a tense situation. Erik's brother Jonathan was kidnapped and his life is in danger. The brash thief spurs them all into action.
#UrbanFantasy #Supernatural #Thriller #BYPWM #OftDTftW
Ah, a Saturday where I actually post my #WIPSnips! Today's word is #obvious. (🤣)
Lykaios meets Erik in his dreams every time he sleeps. This time, atop a desert sandstone arch for a precarious picnic. He muses about danger & nudity.
