The Somewhat Wicked Witch of Briggandale by C. M. Waggoner was great fun! It has the spirit of Dealing with Dragons and Pratchett in it

The way I come up with fictional settings is like... I imagine a real place, and then unfocus the eyes of my mind. Let it blur out, shift, funhouse-mirror distort. Everything 1.5x larger than life, like remembering the house I grew up in. Let the failure to reconstruct build something new instead.

My #AwesomeCharacters tend to stay confined within their stories - I don't generally think about the "after" or the "in-between" because I already said everything that needed saying. The other parts are for the characters themselves, or for the readers. I've meddled enough.

Hanging in there! Been a stressful time at work, preparing to do field geology abroad among other things. My summerly re-listen to The Worst Idea of All Time's "Sex & The City 2" season is helping. because no matter how bad things are, at least I'm not watching SATC2 52 times in a row.

Love a #WIPSnip game! Show a snippet of your MC talking about their childhood. (High school counts as childhood by the time you're in your 30's, right?)
A screenshot of text reading: “Yeah, but you’re the worst liar God ever built, and Nat gets smarter every 20 seconds. It’s going to blow up in your face someday.” Her eyes flicked to Emma’s scar and off again like touching hot coals. “Or, uh… Sorry, I meant—”
“No, it’s fine, that’s not even what happened,” said Emma, turning her face away. “Some mutophobic asshole threw acid on me in 10th grade. Cool, now you know the Scar Story, can we drop it?”
“Oh, my God,” Reina said, horrified. “Did you—”
“It’s *fine*. Can we drop it?”
“Sure. Of course.”

So the zine making presentation was lovely. It was more about just making fun zines. I made a simple 8 page one and ran out of space, so I may look at making a 16 page as opposed to having multiple parts. Here's the first and last page.
A folded zine that reads "Why gen-AI sucks and you shouldn't use it." There is a small smiley face with X's for eyes and a tongue sticking out.Back page of a zine that reads "The future is and always will be human. Stay tuned for pt. 2!" There is also a stick figure surrounded by green and blue.

My short story, "The Maze," is in this anthology! It's good! I'm super proud of it!!
The cover of the "Wild and Full of Marvels" anthology with the short story title "The Maze" and author S. J. Ralston called out. A trope cloud surrounds, with the tropes "Weird West, Trans Character, Body Horror, Messy Relationship, and Eldritch Creature."Text reading: "Didn’t nobody talk about the Maze, and Merle couldn’t for the life of him figure out why not. It was a source of endless curiosity, a tangle of twisting stone corridors buried slantwise in a hill outside of town, a pickax gone cancerous. And yet, nobody else took an interest in it.
Merle was only 11, but that didn’t sit right with him. Mysteries wasn’t there to be mysterious. Mysteries was there to be *found out.*"
