Heyo! I'm The Legendary Hero BraveLeaf! I also go by Ayanda, a black, and low vision (Keratoconus) author with a desire to put diverse faces at the front page of stories I tell, and every page after. I grew up wondering why people like me weren't in the media I consumed. I want to change that.

I was 100% not prepared to the whole moderate to severe pain this eye disease brings. The snow storm has obliterated my eyes...but I still write on

Well I had a thought and then whoops new chapter. This makes up for me not uploading as much as I wanted to last week, and gave me a chance to disassociate for a few hours! #RoyalRoad #WriterSky #Chapter #Writing #AuthorSky www.royalroad.com/fiction/1482...

Chapter Seven - Ties that bind - Eldyr Chronicles Act 1

Altrean Carsus I never imagined something like this. I was at my desk—a desktop with three monitors, next to a laptop I'd typically take with me. The office aboard the ship was small compared to the...

I want The trauma my characters carry to feel real and charged, I struggled for years until I started putting two characters with conflicting pain in the same room. It felt natural in a really vulnerable way. Anyone else have strategies to make depth feel earned? #WriterSky #BookSky #Autjors

I finally edited today. I did a chore i was procrastinating on for ages. I should be proud of myself. The self doubt that lives in my mind is voracious. It feeds on every achievement, every moment of joy and demands more to consume. I'll be damned if I let it win the war. But tonight...u got it

I feel ready, ready to just confront the world and all of my problems, ready to change and be enough for myself. I'm tired of looking in the mirror and thinking so harshly of myself. Writing characters that embody confidence has made me so strangely motivated.

Well nothing like losing your job on a monday! Interrupted my flow a bit but we're back at it with another chapter, I won't let anything stop me! www.royalroad.com/fiction/1482...

Chapter six - Iron Promise - Eldyr Chronicles Act 1

??? “Rise, ye’ bunch of bastards.” A few dozen feet stood in no particular rush. Some coughed openly, others whispered laughs to each other. It had been raining for six days in Caedril, a nonsto...

Whether you draw, or paint, or compose, or mix - whatever form of art you choose to create, make it exist. Bring it to life. Create it in a tangible form that can be enjoyed. It need not be perfect. It might need work. It might serve as practice. It might even remain unfinished. Just create. 😁

On days where I just can't muster the creativity to write or draw…I'm thankful I can still edit.

THE LIFE OF INK

Ink's mother, Drew, has always had the ability to imbue inanimate objects with life. She just never showed it to anybody before. Not until one Sunday afternoon, when she spilled a bottle of squid ink ...

Eldyr Chronicles Act 1

Balance is a fickle thing. In a world where heroes don't exist, evil won long ago. All anyone can do is focus on what matters to them most. Some seek to find themselves; others seek the light that lef...

I got my first comment on my royal road novel the other day, and gosh, it was initially pretty rough to read. But I was so happy at the same time. Someone cared enough to write that. It means the world as a new author. #writing #author #royalroad

Ok, being low vision and running into those wacky-ass captchas is crazy sometimes. I'm not a robot, I'm just disabled. Please stop coagulating words into a series of monochrome spaghetti and just let me click on the elephants instead of the lamp.
