I know Boat Trip is cinematically not precisely a masterpiece but I loved it anyways. Hilarious film.

Three of the 4 Ominous Books were locked thousands of years ago in deep places inaccesible for the average victim. Pretty much the entire conflict of the series is how the sole free book manipulates mortals to release its dying siblings.

Spaulding is a rare dual water and fire mage, so I could see him feeling comfortable with a 3 and 3 water-fire pokemon team. Ideally, one of those fire would also be a flying type like his phantom beast familiar.

Uhhh... Spaulding causes 3rd degree burns on his best friend's neck, knocking him out around halfway of book 1. He is already wealthy, wouldn't need the cash.

I printed the centralest part of the Coris game board at a papelería, uhhh I don't know how to say that word in English. I didn’t print the middle and external wheel but I could draw them on scrap paper, I just need a physical board to play the pieces for the Haptic book's final arc showdown.

Just made those final 2 edits and sent the story. Will know in November if it gets selected. And if not, well, I already have a nice cover idea for the novelette. Would involve bright saturated colors, which seems contradictory for a vampire sci fi.

Does a finished draft currently 40% into copy edit revision count for the #storysky challenge? Since it is for an anthology, if it ends up accepted, it won't be published until June 2027, sooner self pubbed if it is otherwise rejected. Has insect vampire romance. 👀👀👀

I keep on writing my Haptics wip's accelerated higher stakes final arc. Funny how the words appear like magic once I start a character killing spree with the sole purpose of luring the hero to an obvious trap. 😈😈😈😈😈

I don't like those writing mantras of write everyday if you're not inspired. However, it is great to see I did srite 380 extra words for my Haptics wip. Almost at 88,000 words! Already going to start speed running the final arc. When things in my books move fast, they move FAST!

Wrote another 3000 words of my Haptics wip. After not working on the wip in a month, I feel the wait was a good idea. I would have written sludge if I had not given it the rest it needed.

Nancy Foster 😼💉🇲🇽 @drafoxter.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

With how strong the Mexican peso has gotten lately, getting an audiobook for at least some of my shorter work is feasible. I'd need greater interest from readers to make the plunge worth it and narrators that are a good fit for the voices.

Nancy Foster 😼💉🇲🇽 @drafoxter.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Whew! Just finished writing my spicy space vampire story at a well... bit long 13,000 words. Going to celebrate, fix lingering typos and see if the anthology requires text to be edited prior to submission or sent as is.

Nancy Foster 😼💉🇲🇽 @drafoxter.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

I probably should go write that steamy spicy scene so that I can finally get my short story delivered for an anthology. And if it ends up rejected, it would still make a nice & fun standalone novelette.

I might deviate attention with subplots that will eventually weave into the main storyline later, I also like to have unreliable narrators that aren’t even sure what they are talking about, which will also leave the reader quessing.

Sadly, it is likely the full size drawing I drew of Lord Spaulding 8 years ago is forever lost when an old laptop fried. I wanted to salvage at least the only part of the drawing I miraculously had as a blurry screenshot.

Spaulding doesn't mention favoring a specific season. He does complain patrolling forests during the brutal winter sucks and hates being forced to wear endless layers of clothes during the oppressive summer official ceremonies.

Ok, there are some moments in Spaulding's life during the story where he is doing ok. Maybe dirt poor like at the final 3rd of book 1 but he has a home and enough food to survive. No issue swapping then. If I swap during his suffering in prison in book 2, that is going to be a hard pass.
