I think based on my answers to question 2, that I happen to draw on a sense of home quite often, but it's not always explicit. It's often presented in ways the characters interact with space and place.

Look on the bright side, Lucy, at least it's not the frantic Norwegian yelling about Bear stars and sons...

βAt least Iβm already icing my injuries,β she joked weakly. Jacqueline offered a strained smile and resumed her shaky scooter pushes while Shannon matched her pace with small, controlled strides. Jacqueline thought it was almost enjoyable, if she forgot the crowds, the ice, and the growing bruise on her tailbone. βIf this keeps up, I might need you to check it for me,β Jacqueline said, then immediately rolled her eyes at herself. βYour butt?β Shannon wrinkled her nose. Jacquelineβs blush was instantaneous, and there was no chance of hiding it. Instead, she looked away, suddenly very interested in the lights around city hall. βWhy, Ms. Lamont, are you blushing?β Shannon teased. βIf I didnβt know any better, Iβd say you were flirting with me.β βIβve done no such thing,β Jacqueline said, finding an even tone that didnβt entirely betray her. βWell, thatβs a relief. Iβd hate to think you skate better than you flirt.β Jacqueline came to a wobbling stop, stood as straight as physics permitted, and lifted her chin. She looked Shannon squarely in the eyes. βIf I was flirting with you, Nurse MacCartney, youβd know it.β - Wishing You Knew, Chapter 16
#lesficfri - forgot
I don't think Jackie or Shannon will know if they're flirting with each other. They might need to spell it out for each other...

There are many places where Julie embraces the fake it 'til you make it mentality, but at least with music, there's no need. Her confidence is well placed.

Lucy was writing a new chapter, and needed a synonym for "soft." One thing led to another, and, well, mistakes were made with a thesaurus.
It has been confiscated now!

I've shared this before. The answers to Jackie's question are: [spoiler] and it was still *relatively* new to Toronto.

#SapphicMoon - 1 April (but late)
From WIP1. I wouldn't say Izzy loves pink, but she likes the sunrise.
This also fits really well with #QueerPrompts today which asked about how characters deal with stress.

Usually one small detail about a character pops up in my head. Once I have that nugget, I'll start building their backstory & weaving them into the plot. I usually find vibes for them until I know them inside out

Three things I need for a good writing day...
1. Music - often needs to jive with the scene I'm writing. I've been known to replay the same song for hours *just* the right vibe
2. headphones - so if #1 happens, my wife doesn't kill me
3. a thesaurus

Poor Lucy (aka: Pipsqueak).
Good news, this plan works out best for everyone involved.

I honestly think Jackie spends most of WIP2 feeling some level of foolish, though she doesn't admit it. Shannon feels foolish for wishing that the flowers she found abandoned on the ground could be for her

I guess Alexis is the most cheerful in WIP 1, but that's saying something because she's fairly pragmatic, kind of sharp and cunning, and is usually calling Izzy on her bullshit. But she does it with a smile (1/3)
