I’m a fantasy writer, video game player, nerd who thinks way too much about fiction and good stories

I realized I'm really bad at describing sound effects in prose, anyone have any tips on how to make these sound more natural sounding? #writingsky #writingcommunity

Forgot to mention I’ve finished my 2nd draft of my novel 🥳 edits only took 2 years, but the next round or two should be much faster! #writingsky #writingcommunity #creativewriting

Todays word I found while editing that doesn’t exist is apparently “uncomfortabilty” #writersky #writingcommunity

In this one chapter alone, I used the words “subservient”, “billowed”, and “brittle” all wrong 😂 #WritingCommunity #WriterSky

Re-reading a manuscript is somehow the most laborious thing I’ve ever had to do. I’ve finished this *2* years ago and editing my novel is just super exhausting 🙃

It’s kinda hard to be creative and artistic when the world seems to end every single day 🙃

I’ve been quiet, keeping my head down and editing my manuscript but my god is this the hardest part of writing for me 😂

My gut reaction is to say Elder Scrolls, because it’s so deep and detailed and so much goes on in the background without the players input or presence. As far as novels go, I really think KingKiller Chronicles has some of the most fascinating mysteries and world in written contemporary fiction.

Is it hard for you to think of a favorite anime or do you not watch it? I’m just curious!

Life’s been busy, and I’ve been recovering from Novelember. I’m hoping to edit Book 1 soon!

Thanks! Without getting too much into details, Zei is a former assassin who has to save someone instead of killing them for once. His mistakes and guilt over the past prevents him from being the best he can be in the present. Vysandra, on the other hand, is forced to make a terrible choice in war.

This is a super interesting question! For Zei, it would have to be the first step to embracing the future is letting go of the past. I think for Vysandra, it would be that the expectations of others are not her burden to hold. #FantasyIndies #WritingComminity

Persona is probably my favorite game series of all time, and you’re one of 7 people who knows what trails is 😂 along with Final Fantasy, inspired this novel series I’m writing!

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

Definitely not 😂 I still have two more drafts to do, editors edits, and to find a cover artist

Not yet, no. I’ve finished writing one that I’m actively editing, so hopefully that’ll be out in the world soon once the pieces fall into place

Thank you! This is the second book and I’m still editing the first one, so it’s unfortunately probably going to go on the back burner for a bit longer 😅

If you haven’t watched Arcane, Jayce and Heimdinger are pretty not evil and they make incredible leaps in technology. In One Piece, Vegapunk is the world’s greatest scientist and he’s not evil and neither is the scholar islands. In term of video games, the Mages in Dragon Age aren’t evil either

#NOVELMBER Zei wants forgiveness and repentance above all. Years ago, he did something terrible in the name of honor and now he has the exact same opportunity again, but to do the opposite. He owes it to himself, his friend, and the people he’s hurt before.

#NOVELMBER Some of my plot twists surprise me, especially because I come up with them on the spot. I’m also surprised by how I manage to tie together things that I didn’t initially intend to be connected or relevant later

Zei stands to lose his honor, and most of all, his redemption if he fails this mission. Someone is depending on him to find the truth and in turn, he’s counting on the truth to reset the past.
