#awesomecharacters Paulie lives with his parents & two little sibtwins & perfectly happy. As he gets older & annoyed at 'rents, his sisters move out to college. Then he lives with Gordon & his 5ish college roommates. How he feels is legit all over the place 'cuz reasons. After that is up in the air.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters What is your character's living situation like? Do they have roommates? Pets? Live with family? Alone in a mansion? On the road? On a ship? Other? Are they happy where they are, or striving for something else? #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

#LGBTQWriteAThon I think I did a little ramble but no outline… started day 1 of inktober but didn't finish it. And the rest of the days, I've been dealing with getting over a cold. I bought cold medication last night, my head feels weird from the sinuses.

#LitHodgePodge 3 This is my main antagonist Maya. Guess which character of mine hasn't been fully fleshed out yet? I'm totally not gonna use this to help me figure out what she likes to do besides trying to be a triple threat in acting, broadway, & watching old movies.

partial screenshot of ibispaint with a meme drawing with 6 squares, 4 are drawn in with my character maya

maya is a teen girl with shoulder length dark ringlets in her hair with straight bangs, a headband with two small bows on each side, a mole on her left cheek, & the meanest stare you can think of

under the 1st box, it says "vigorously trying to ignore someone who's trying to get their attention from across the room"

in the box above, maya is facing straight on, not particularly amused & a twitch in her right eye. she has an off-shoulder shirt on with a lace camisole underneath. it says "stare" above her to the right & in the background to the left there's a stick figure waving & saying "hey!"

under the 2nd box to the right, it says "trying to seduct (seduce) & make out with their favorite food"

in the box above, maya is slightly facing to the right & is gleefully eating a giant scoop of ice cream from a pint. she is wearing an off the shoulder shirt without a camisole

under the 3rd box to the right, it says "they have a song stuck in their head that they can't remember the title or lyrics of"

in the box above, maya is slightly facing to the left, but her chin is tilting up with a frustrated expression. her eyes are looking right. her bangs are pinned up & back & she has a star hairclip in her hair, no headband. has a thin tied ribbon necklace on with a low scoop tee

on a new line, under the 4th box on the left, it says "trying to read the instructions to a blender, which happens to be written in french"

in the box above, maya is straight on. she is looking down, her hands resting on the table & a piece of paper is in front of her. to the right in front is a blender. she is wearing a babydoll blouse & a star of david necklace. above her in a thought bubble, it says "C'est stupide! I should know this word. Je parle français!" (french: This is stupid! I speak french!) under that bubble to the right is a author's note box that says "…is a French 2 student."

#LitHodgepodge 2 Maybe Mean Girls or Heathers, but my mean girl would destroy the Plastics. My mean boys would wreak havoc with JD. My kinder kids, well… they probably wouldn't do well in either.

#LitHodgepodge 2 Who doesn’t love a good crossover moment? Imagine your story’s cast of characters got sucked into a TV show or film. What comes to mind as a world where they’d mesh well? Or one where they’d wreak (delightful) havoc? #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WriteSky

FRIDAY FLIGHTS OF FANCY

Prompt:
2 | The cast of your book got sucked into the screen! In which show or film would they feel most at home? Or which one would be most entertaining to see them in?

[Graphic of a talking crow]
Personally, I wouldn’t mind joining the cast of “What We Do in the Shadows.” Guillermo would take excellent care of me, Colin and I would have much to discuss, and I do believe I’ve a solid plan to steal Laszlo’s witch-skin hat.

Join tomorrow for Saturday Snap Judgments!

#queerwriterschat I don't have anything to share, maybe I'll post my drawings as I complete them here. Eventually, so keep as eye on my account if you don't follow me already for some artwork. Else, thanks for hosting. I'm a little calmer but still feel weird since I'm not used to taking the meds.

#queerwriterschat I definitely think so. I'm a very reclusive, can't drive, stuck where I am sorta of person, so I tend to write a lot of yearning and wishes. Like I've never been in a romantic relationship, I've noticed most of my characters end up in a happy relationship after their drama ends.

#queerwriterschat adam yearns to be less stressed and for someone to accept him & his disabilities luci yearns for a romantic partner. being from a not very openminded small town, he hasn't had much luck in the love department (lol just answering for this story means my posts aren't 5 posts long)
