Haven't #ShatteredSun posted in a bit, but I'm making real progress on the draft (this time for real). I also found a perfect way to implement a fun idea I had scrapped because I couldn't figure it out! I've also decided on a set of three chapter naming schemes depending on the mood.
Welcome back to #ShatteredSunDay where I share nonspoiler worldbuilding and character info for my upcoming novel #ShatteredSun. There's a quote chain of the other threads included, so I'd highly recommend reading those first.
This week's topic is the Gods' Domains and what happens when they break.
#writinglifemonthly
Complicated question for #ShatteredSun because there are multiple antagonists and who is an antagonist or protagonist shifts a fair bit.
That said, my main antagonist is perceived as an existential threat with entirely selfish motives. A monster that cannot be reasoned with.
#writinglifemonthly Day 20
I'm a lil late but in #ShatteredSun
The Council of the Cataclysm is made up of Champions who use their power to oppose Altai.
The deceased gods can still manipulate their Champions into doing what they want. They rely on their authority and lies to get what they want.
Oh hey I hit 500 followers! Thank you all! Can I finish draft 0 of #ShatteredSun before I hit 1000? Who knows!
I hope today's thread was interesting despite not offering any truly new content for #ShatteredSun (except maybe the Council of the Cataclysm's composition). I promise to get back into worldbuilding and lore in the next installment, where we'll talk about Gods' domains and what a "breakage" entails!
Local bimbo doesn't prepare #ShatteredSunDay thread ahead of time, decides to wing it.
So welcome back to Shattered Sunday, where I talk about my upcoming novel #ShatteredSun. Today's thread is going to be a bit more meta than previous ones, which are all quoted below!
Let's talk about influences!
2. My current WiP is #ShatteredSun a fantasy novel set in a world where a cataclysmic event killed the gods and the sun was shattered like its goddess was. The MC is a descendent of the Sun Goddess and the Chosen One destined to restore the sun by resurrecting the Sun Goddess. I have threads on it!

The villains in #ShatteredSun are all spoilers, but burning the world down is literally what they're trying to do. No survivors.
My main villain has no remorse and will go lower than it takes to win.
Her right hand is merciful in that he minimizes the pain of death.
I'm Jenn and I write fantasy stories! My current WiP is #ShatteredSun. If you like dark fantasy with dead gods, transformations, fighting, and a protagonist who manages to be lighthearted and chaotic through it, you'll enjoy it! I have a few lore threads for it under the hashtag #ShatteredSunDay!
Welcome back to #ShatteredSunday where I dump a bunch of thoughts about my upcoming novel #ShatteredSun every Sunday. Last week's thread is quoted here, so best to read the earlier ones first! @goddessblade.bsky.social wanted a character thread and I am a people pleaser so...

Good morning to everyone except me, who just realized the nightmarish way Deittech must work within the rules of #ShatteredSun idk if I'll ever make it public knowledge, but it's a lot like sausage in that knowing how its made makes it less appealing. I never intended to figure out how it worked. D:
It's #ShatteredSunDay, so we're gonna talk about #ShatteredSun! I'm going to share updates or loredumps every Sunday until it's published. For those just happening upon this, the story vibes are Megaman ZX x Elden Ring x Mistborn! Today's thread will be a bit more cohesive than past threads.
#SFFChat
There's a lot of answers to this, but I think the most interesting one in #ShatteredSun is the broken state of reality itself. Fire can freeze in place, time can flow any way it wants to, even the title alludes to how broken reality is. After all, how would a ball of plasma be shattered?
#SFFChat
For the book I am writing right now, #ShatteredSun, the main influence was Megaman ZX. While ZX is SciFi and part of a huge timeline, I wanted to do standalone fantasy with similar story elements and a new angle. Some characters were designed as tributes or analogs to some of ZX's cast.
Venus - From a series I have called Shattered Sun, nothing about it is out yet, it’s new.
Venus is “Friends” with Saturn, they just kiss sometimes. She’s considered pretty boring by all the other planets.
