✨SEEKING BETA READERS!✨ I'm currently finishing edits on my cozydark adult LGBTQ fantasy, THE KING IN THE MOUNTAIN. Complete length will be around 110k. It is VERY queer and neurodivergent. Pitch attached. Please comment or DM if you are interested! #WritingCommunity #LGBTQWriters
EMILY WILDE x BURY OUR BONES

A century removed from a catastrophe that nearly destroyed humanity, Silas, like everyone else, is living on borrowed time.

But rather than spend his life researching renewable energy or farming the land, all Silas has ever wanted is to discover a coven of vampires to study.

When he finally gets his wish, however, he is only allowed to stay on one condition: their leader, a former king by the name of Nicholas, tasks him with researching how vampirism works… in the hopes of learning more about the mysterious death of one of the coven members, centuries prior.

But when the prime minister shows up to the manor with a smile and a mission, Silas realizes that there is more to the coven than meets the eye – and that Nicholas is only one of many historic leaders being preserved through vampirism for a time when humanity might need them.

Out! In 1hr of drafting I am probably working on 3-4 different parts of the book. Pro: this is one of the few times in my life that my ADHD gets to run rampant and actually get a good result (autism usually drives this bus 👍) Con: when I get to the last leftover bits it kinda sucks. Brain goes 😫

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

My favorite part of reading is when a book gets so good you have to set it down, (finger marking the page), and just let your mind be blown for a minute before picking it back up again.

#WritingCommunity #WriteSky Working on the last bits of The King in the Mountain this week! Started off today by adding a little polish to this scene. It's one of my favorites: Silas' first interview with a real actual vampire! Ansel doesn't give him the answers he's been hoping for, though.
“Besides,” Ansel continues, “We barely kill any more these days. That guy they found in the swamp was asking for it, but on the whole his majesty likes to keep it humane, and that’s fine. I’m not about to complain. It’s not like any of us ever loved killing. It’s not fun, it’s not sport. But that’s how it goes. Humans kill to eat. So do we.”

That’s certainly one way to look at it. It’s a way of making sense of their existence, and it doesn’t exactly disagree with the stories, just frames the distinctly human perspective. No trapper sees themselves as a monster, but if rabbits could tell fairytales all of the villains would probably be human.

“Right.” Silas says, ticking down the bullet points on the page.

“All that to say,” Ansel says, “We’re not all falling apart at the seams or brooding in dark corners lamenting our miserable existence, or whatever. I’m sorry to have to be the one to tell you this — but eternal life is just life, but longer.”

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie. An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough. So finish the thing.

Here’s why you shouldn’t pull your punches as a writer: A big part of the appeal of a book is how dedicated the author is to their idea. That crackling energy only comes from compulsion, the true driver of creativity. Restrain it at your own peril.
