#QueerPrompts In #TFTNG, there's quite a few altercations with Junior, Cypress' longest friend and first bully. Also, Nekane, the main antag towards Cypress, and François, the main antag towards Acanthus. In #s3, Winnie is Rebecca's bully, but Rebecca stands up for herself in court.

#QueerPrompts October 14: National Stop Bullying Day: Bully/villain confrontation in your story

Hello! Shall I reintroduce myself? I’ve been around for a while but also absent for months. 😅 I’m Vanessa, a spec fiction writer. I’m currently working on a dark folkloric fantasy. And a dark pirate fantasy that needs extensive revisions and will come after the other project.

I’ve been MIA. Appointments, writing, health stuff. And now starting grad school. But I finally started meds after numerous tests etc. And I daresay I’m starting to feel slightly better? It’s kinda a process of elimination. I’ve got more appointments lined up but.. is that hope? Reprieve? Maybe?

I’ve a book coming out this month! It’s a fantasy novella about a bridegroom who brings an unwelcome guest to his wedding. It’s full of snow and massive animals. Perfect for this time of year. It’ll be available as a pocket sized paperback too, complete with my illustrations. 📢📚 #Booksky

Cover by 100 covers for Snowmane. It shows a snowbound landscape and a young woman with dark hair in a red dress walking across the snow. She is holding a large wooden staff. In the sky are the images of a white owl and wolf, both with yellow eyes.

Oh, I’ve been MIA. But for those who have followed my whining about my health… I did finally see endocrinology. Next week, I have my thyroid checked again since hashimotos is a bitch. But also checking for potential Addison’s. I’m supposed to get a salivary gland biopsy to also check for ⬇️
