✨️ Currently editing my contemporary fantasy novel - Lights of the North ✨️ 🦖 Story/art enjoyer (reading/watching/playing). Writer. I post story sketches/neat art I find, review stuff, take raw photos, yap about animals/creatures. 🦖

Had a rough day yesterday, hoping today will be better. It'll be a "sit on the couch & catch up on shows/movies day" trying to recover. I at least made some notes just now of a new (one day in the) future story idea, based on a dream this morning. It's some writing at least! #ScribesUnited

Good morning #ScribesUnited! I don’t see a morning post so I’ll step up and make one. How we all doing today? Whats on the agenda today? I hope you are able to make time to write on this beautiful Saturday! #WritingCommunity

I love when the seasonal bats come around in late summer-fall ☺️ Hearing those excitable "pii-piis" is always a treat. Go fill your bellies with bugs, lil guys! Just... wish they were easier to see. 🦇

I got half of my music project done, but I wanna wait to get some PC fixes in before I finish up. I fear another blue screen while using my backup 😶 Also hoping this cold goes away fast so I can get back to my edits! Tomorrow's another day I s'pose. #ScribesUnited

Hey #ScribesUnited! It's 6:30pm Pacific Standard Time. So how did everyone do this Oct 1st? Personally? I got nothing done. I had a rough counselling session. Good but rough. And I've been processing ever since. But that's allowed! How'd you do? #WritersCommunity

Oh hey #ScribesUnited started! Don't have any brain power today for any writing, but wanted to find a project to pass the time and get me through the day. So today I'll be cleaning up and sorting a bunch of music I ripped from CDs recently. Been meaning to find the motivation to work on it.

Good morning #ScribesUnited! It's a new day. What are you working on? Check in as you see this! This is a prompt I'm helping run with @ddwardiswriting.bsky.social

Thanks for hosting this was fun! Got to hear a lot of neat song inspos for others, discover new music, & I was able to use a good number of songs from my Lights of the North playlist (which is still very much a WIP with heavy editing). #SongsOfSeptember

I'll redo "side char". When I first heard this (also my intro to the singer), I couldn't help but think of my own Aurora, & how appropriate it would be if she was the one singing this, referring to a certain someone 😅 #SongsOfSeptember youtu.be/cgM1K48shdI

Feel free to answer any question one more time!

“I’m through accepting limits, ‘cause someone says they’re so. Some things I cannot change, but ‘til I try, I’ll never know.”
(Lyrics from Defying Gravity from Wicked)

One thing I've learned in my writing journey, is how challenging it is to write 1st person well. I feel like there's often a connotation with 1st person & using it only for a young demo. Me starting with (a more mature) 1st person + featuring an introverted, insecure MC, has def been hardmode 😅

Digimon Beatbreak This was a very slow-paced series, before it started to find its footing. Some of the most heartfelt, emotional background stories, even for the side cast. They really upped the maturity of the story, surprising me. Oh, & it also has the first canon queer couple too! Good stuff! 😌

A poster for the anime Digimon Beatbreak. It depicts the main human and Digimon partner cast from the show during sunset by the sea, sitting on a pile of rubble in front of their home with a "GLOWING DAWN" flag raised above it.

I still think of this as the 'closing credits' song for Lights 😅 The lyrics are incredibly on-point for Aurora's emotions & determination. While it's an upbeat, hopeful song, there's still a sense of unease during the choir portions. For the translation... 🧵 #SongsOfSeptember youtu.be/zdY1CSKP7uw
