I am once again posting my prequel (which at this point is less a prequel than it is book one) onto royal road this time with edits! I have the first chapter up and will leave that up to the masses to check out (like a teaser 😉) and will eventually begin weekly uploads once i have enough rewritten!

also hi everyone i saw the new httyd recently and loved every second of it and in doing so also realized that i found myself a reference for my wonderfully sad boy that i occasionally post about here but in case you don’t remember here he is sassing his sister

Text from WIP “Heavens,” she muttered, “what crawled up your shirt and died this morning?” “My patience,” he sighed. “Well, I hate to break it to you, but it’s not like I can hold my breath that long from your house to the building. I’d pass out if I did that.” Magic only shrugged. He turned his attention to the dried out bread roll in his hands and dribbled it between his palms. “That sounds like a personal problem.” “I’m not just going to stop breathing, Magic,” Mira huffed. “Unless you want me to put a buffer between my face and the microphone.” “That’s what I do—at least, in the wintertime. I like using a scarf instead of pulling my jacket over my face.” “It’s not cold enough for that, though. Don’t those things turn off?” “They do. But contrary to popular belief, I do like speaking to you.” Mira laughed, followed shortly by an eye roll. “It’d be nice if you acted like it every now and again. Sometimes I think you enjoy speaking to Mister Oreson’s bird more than me.” A rare smile twitched on her brother’s lips. His hair wavered in the slight breeze as he shook his head with a low chuckle. “Treble doesn’t sass me everyday or insist that I climb old buildings in my spare time.”

Not sure where this will go in the end as I cut it from its original spot, but I do like it! 🌈📚💙 🪐📚 🌈🚀💫 🌈✒️ #booksky #fantasy #queeradultSFF #authorsky #wip #amwriting #queerwriters #WiPSnips

As Elyan unlatched a window and rested his forearms on the sill, the chaos in his head began to dissolve into soft sand slipping through fingers. He hadn’t lied when he’d told Rathaliel it helped him sleep. Cool night air lifted the hair from his face like the sand of his thoughts, only lighter of course, because sand was a lot heavier than water. Or air. It was air on his face, he was pretty sure, though it was cold like water.

I don’t have “appall” but I have the next best thing: disgust Here’s some small town drama because small towns be like that sometimes #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #AmWriting

WIP Snip: Appall It should not have bugged her that the town was more concerned about her family’s personal business than they were the wellbeing of two of their own. Mira expected it, even. As far as she was concerned, that was all this town knew how to do: gossip. And yet, it disgusted her that strangers, who didn’t know the first thing about her family or the Coopers, were persistent in getting her widowed father to propose to Magic’s recently widowed mother. First, it made no sense. Benji and Amelia were friends. Had always been since they were kids—along with her mother and Magic’s father. Second, who in their right mind would pressure a widow into marriage?

The #WIPSnips word for January 26 is "appall" This word looks weird to me like this... I feel like I almost always see it as "appalled" or "appalling" and my brain has been playing tricks on me that it isn't a real word like this. 😂 #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
