Game of Life is one of my favourite kinds of books: both so detailed in its worlds and characters it rewards close reading, and also so engaging and fun to read it pulls you in. (And also: furry!) I'm only a day in and I'm hooked.

I feel deep, deep gratitude toward every single person who takes a couple hours out of their busy lives to be a part of this movement to get money out of politics, put money in pockets, and pass Medicare for All.

#TBBChat: 5 From #ADragonForDarius Vol. 4. There is a great deal of humanity but we're going to go with monstrosity here, since I'm on that kick now. CW: Drake is having a very bad day, captured by the All Father and subjected to psychic torture. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

The attack fell on him so hard that it cut off all thoughts. Searing flesh beneath his scales started to bake, burn, and char. The pain of the dragon spear poison flared as his powers flared, involuntarily trying to ward off the attack. Drake thrashed against the bindings, succeeding in snapping one of the straps over his shoulders. Voices and movement around him gave him an outside sensation to focus on. Somewhere to crawl, mentally, as his flesh continued to burn. It’s not real, Yu! It’s just in your mind! Do you think I can’t bake you for real, wurm? You’re immortal. I will slice off dragon steaks for my Host every evening, and every morning you will heal. And we will dine on steak for a month. And when we tire of steak, we will explore other delicacies. Pain lanced through Drake’s guts as mental fingers brushed over his liver, his stomach, squelched through the intestines, pulling on them. Drake sobbed in response.

#TBBChat 4: I think the best monsters are the ones who believe in their hearts that they are the good guys. My current monsters saved the world. How could they be bad? To them, the real monsters are the MCs and their shortsighted desire to topple a generational power structure. #WriteSky

#TBBChat 3: Self-doubt and questioning their place in the world and the decisions they make are common for my characters. I have others who believe their own press articles and then find out they're actually not all that amazing. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

#LitHodgePodge My hero Darius from #ADragonForDarius What three things would you use to bait a trap for her? My personal answer to follow...

A young woman with pale skin, blonde ringlets, dark eyes and dark lips. She is wearing red, holding a map, and has a backpack. She is wearing a collar with a pentacle engraved on it.

#TBBChat 1: The monsters I write represent excess. Taking more than they need, demanding more than they are owed, etc. Selfishness and all the darker parts of the soul. Or at least, that's what I try to convey. I'm getting better at that as I write. #BookBazaar26 #WritingCommunity #WriteSky

Happy #FaveLineFriday! This is from A Dragon For Darius, Vol. 4. Darius doesn't always trust Cal. "Her frown grew, moving from concern in her head to a sudden distrust on her face." BQ: The furthest Darius has been from home is Sydney, Australia. (9,235 -ish miles) #WriteSky #WritingCommunity
