SABakelar - A Dragon for Darius on Backerkit

@sbakelar.bsky.social

Thinker of thoughts, writer of dreams. Gamer, teacher, author, just trying to make it through life...it takes a certain type of insanity to do what I do. |She/her | sbakelar.com | https://linktr.ee/SABakelar

She had no homework and no #tests tomorrow, but she couldn't sleep. She was in his house. He was down the hall at this very moment. In his bedroom. She wondered what he was doing, trying to stick to G-rated possibilities. Probably flipping through a magazine. Not that kind of magazine. #wipsnips

The image behind the text is a border that is dark blue with gold stars with a black background with neon blue border. An illustrated caticorn holding a pencil and writing in a book with a rose behind one ear is in the lower right corner. A different version of the same illustrated caticorn is curled up writing in the lower left corner

#WIPSnips | test From #ADragonForDarius vol. 1 "The third [stream] was swifter, wider, but, when Drake tested it, was no hotter than a good shower. Splashing across brought them to a thicket of dogwood where they stopped to survey the next section of the plain." #WriteSky #SciFantasy #BookBazaar26

My #AwesomeCharacter Cal will be the one on the news. Probably most recently for stealing an airplane. Or maybe a speedboat. Basically, he's a GTA Crime Spree waiting for a chance to happen. The headline would read: Man, late 20s, eludes capture yet again, last seen boarding a zeppelin. #WriteSky

#AnthropolgoyAugust 9 Mountaineers The closest I have is a high mountain village of avian semians (half bird-half human). It's currently ruled by a human warlord but an avian princess is next in line for the throne and I think she'll make a fine leader. They live there because it's easy to defend.

Sorry for the late post I have been all over the place #anthropologyAugust Does your world have any mountaineering species or cultures? Do you have any groups that specifically live in high Mountains, and what kind of advantages does that give them? Species to live in mountains also count.

Day 9 : does your world have any mountaineering species or cultures? Any groups that dwell in high places?

#AnthropologyAugust 10: Desert Dwellers. The one species I've explored most who live in the desert are the sand goblins. They're a nomadic tribe of goblins somewhere between the traditional cultures of Bedouins and Mongols. #WritingCommunity #Fantasy #LadyWarriorSaga

#AnthropologyAugust Today let’s talk about a species or group that lives in a hot environment. Do you have any groups that live in hot climates along the equator? Or maybe magically hot environments potentially. Do any groups to have a resistance to fire? How does the heat affect daily life? 

Day 10 : Do you have any groups or species that live in hot environments?

#WIPSnips | admit From #ADragonForDarius Vol. 3 A debate about risking death with white-eyed Astaroth, Drake, and Pahaliah. This scene is one reason why I love this story. I can't wait for y'all to read it. Help support its publication on Backerkit. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s... #WriteSky


“I am not afraid to fall.” The quiet truth in his voice pulled everyone back around to the white-eyed devil. “I have never been afraid. Do not be afraid on my behalf.” 

Is this why we lost? This willingness to sacrifice? Was it too rare a gift in the throes of the Evernight? Aloud, Drake added, “You should let him do as he chooses, Priest. I admit I say that as one he fed when I was hungry, saved when I was lost. We were miserable before Astaroth’s car.”

Fluorescent fish are used as light sources in more affluent areas of the city. Sometimes I wonder how the bowls are cleaned. #SundaySnips #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WriteSky #HQpress

Long lanterns of fish lit the way upwards. Each of them a mass of white that illuminated the journey as natural light became a luxury. Grio resisted the temptation to create his own bloody beacon and followed the fish. Up ahead was Raion walked confidently. Even when Grio stumbled forwards and fell onto the upper steps, Raion was firm footed. As if he'd sprouted from the stairs.

There seemed to be no end to these stairs. How high were they travelling? The windows had now stopped and only the fish survived. Grio stared at one as he passed. He'd never been this close to one as their globes always hung from a great height. They were round with bulbous eyes and fan-like tails that floated delicately and cast shadows over the walls. Their scales were pearlescent with shades of pale blue and purple underneath the white. Like living jewellery, he considered, and imagined a shirt of the same colours.

Welcome to #SundaySnips! A once-a-week prompt game for writers hosted by myself and @hookandquillpress.com Whether it's at the ocean, a river, a lake, or a pool there's nothing quite like floating your troubles away. #WritingCommunity #Writingprompts #Writesky #HQpress

A graphic advertising the Sunday Snips hashtag, a weekly blue sky writing community tag. The word for August 9 is float. Share a snip from your WIP featuring the word of the week. Use #SundaySnips and don't forget to include alt text. Synonyms, vibes, and variations on the word are welcome! Hosted by woodenvelt.bsky.social and Hook and Quill Press. The background is bright blue pool water. There is an image in the bottom left corner of a yellow octopus stuffed animal wearing sunglasses and floating in a pink inflatable pool ring while holding a turquoise drink tumbler. In the top right corner there is a graphic of a flamingo pool float and a pineapple pool float.

My Lady Warrior Saga has a whole species of #AwesomeCharacters who are cat people. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the warlord king, Palo, who is a water mage, and scary powerful (but insecure). Most of the cat people are water mages. Palo is a snow leopard.
