I'm planning to resume working on the full story of "Speak Again For Me" in November. Which- depending on development, could potentially move the estimated release date somewhere in 2027.

I'll fix it up when I make a proper announcement. I was kinda rushing it to get it posted on time, so everything is very admittedly messy. Do apologize for that.
Just realized after I got some proper rest I mixed the title up- fUC-

I try to space them out if I repeat them, and no more than three depending on what that word is
When do you cut repeated words in your WIP? I try to catch some in the early editing stages, but it’s when I’m nearly finished revising that I take my list and do word searches #writingq #WritingCommunity
characters can and should be wrong. they can and should be unreliable narrators i don't just mean misunderstanding tropes, either, where things are weird for a bit and then resolved and they know everything. characters can and should have biased and what could be termed as "incorrect" perceptions
#wolqotd but for the writers What writing tips have you learned that helped elevate your writing?

Their whole “we’re democratising art” “stop gatekeeping art” are very clearly bullshit when you see it’s always been about attacking artists, nothing more.
Hey so as a heads up. This. Is. All. Commissions. PayPal is DREADFUL to work with. Do not mention the word. Do not censor the word. Please just pay the invoice. If you do the artist you commissioned WILL get in trouble.
STOP ADDING COMMENTS IN PAYPAL STATING ANYTHING THAT WHAT YOUR PAYING FOR IS A COMMISSIONS ESPECIALLY A NSFW COMMISSION!!! THESE FUCKING PROCESSORS WON'T STOP PUTTING THIER OWN DISLIKES AND MORALS ON WHAT WE FUCMING BUY!!! Spread the Word!!!!

I’m reaching a point with my story that I feel like its shit and nobody would like it, and I hate it Trying to push through to at least get the teaser draft finished this week, and start the editing process Think I’ll have to extend when I finish this story to like- December 2026-January 2027
The intro draft of my entry for “The Kinky Aces Jam” I will be releasing this by the end of the Jam (August 31st), either as a sample size or the completed version depending on how this month goes on progress If unable to complete it by the end, then the full version will release by September 30th

Almost finished with my novella’s synopsis’ How y’all feel about a novella inspired by ALIEN, Dead Space & TLOU, that has parasitic fungus aliens that reproduce both through hosts/taking over plant life. And the sequel is a dark romance where the love interest is a zombie alien plant.
Question: Should I change Amalthea’s name? Yes, she is a self-insert, but a separate from the sona I present online. Their appearances are vastly different, and have different last names (Sona: Amalthea V. Burgundy, OC: Amalthea Eve) I like it, but I wonder if it would be better for reader’s sake?
Explain your @ I.V was a reference to my old @, Ikari Veadric Even tho I changed my online name to Amalthea I still kept the I.V, cuz honestly I.V sounds better then A.V or V.A And Burgundy is a reference to a street I grew up on
Explain your @ I can't fully remember, but Veadric sorta came out of nowhere that I used as a demon half for my sona When I first made my @ I went by Ikari, which I used for a Warframe when I was into it Then I changed it to Amalthea, cuz it was almost my birth name inspired by The Last Unicorn
Given all of the recent genAI discussion, I wish to repost this.
“Veinguard - Veinguardian A mostly invertebrate-type fungus species, sharing many similar traits with the Ophiocordyceps genus” (Comments down below) #TheVeinguardArum #Veinguard #writingcommunity
Arkos, Arum and Aidoneus were all characters that expanded way past their original ideas. Arkos was a one-off alien, now human & the MC for Veinguard Arum Aidoneus, previously Drirosis who’s character was just Amalthea’s hub Arum is practically the reason I’m making this story in the first place.
Do any of your characters evolve beyond your original plan? Mine almost always do, especially when it comes to backstory expansion #writingq #WritingCommunity
I want to be able to explore mental deterioration, co-dependency, and tragic villains as well that aren’t redeemable.
What does your genre allow you to explore that other genres don’t? I guess for me, it’s the chance to vicariously explore fears and trauma #writingq #WritingCommunity
Arum: “Saving” people from dying, giving them a home and “family.” Soh’vhet: Not being like his father, or others in his “level of hierarchy.”
What would your antagonist say is his or her greatest virtue? I tend to create a lot of antagonists who are narcissists so mine would say being handsome 😎 #writingq #WritingCommunity
Finally completed “The Genesis Station” section of my world building And then added a few more sections to the whole world building sheet in general. hAHAAAAAA-
The Waste Bin of the Vanguard existed before Arum came about. The original antagonist was also Arum’s first offspring, before Arum- again- existed.
What part of your story’s world existed before the story did? I came up with Little Sicily first and then the characters who live there #writingq #WritingCommunity
