Trying to decide which outfit to wear to pirate weekend at the Ren Faire this year and I showed one of these photos to an online friend who only ever sees me on camera (not IRL.) Any guesses which one I chose in the end?

Flat lay photo of clothes arranged on a bed to form an outfit that looks pirate-y. Including a blue hanfu, black corset, grey and black striped bloomers, grey and black striped scarf, a wooden katana and a hand fan. A black cat is sitting on the bed near the head of the outfit.

Flat lay photo of clothes arranged on a bed to form an outfit that looks pirate-y. Includes a gold silk vest with a hood, a short, black and gold ruffled silk skirt made from Indian silk, a bustle with 3 tiers of ruffles in black, gold, and teal made from Indian silk, and long black bloomers. Also pictured is a chatelaine with a bosun whistle and magnifying glass, and a necklace made of what looks like 3 layers of gold coins.

Includes a flowy, grey shirt with pirate-style sleeves, black corset, grey and black striped bloomers, grey and black thigh holster, grey and black striped scarf, and a belt made of 3 tiers of silver chain link chains. Also pictured is a black and grey striped head scarf and a parasol with wooden structure and black fabric.

It includes a military-style coat made with black silk brocade and silver military buttons over a long black skirt made from Indian silk with a beautiful embroidered design done in gold thread that covers the entire skirt from top to bottom and about a third of the skirt wide. Also pictured is a silk brocade cravat where the neck would be.

24 ~ The overall vibes of the forest in books 1 & 2 is isolated, remote, quiet, peaceful. Most people in the country have never stepped foot in one because they're far away from civilization. The ones further away are older. Closer ones were wiped out & have regrown. #JulyWorldbuilders

Friendships are thicker than blood in my WIP. In the past, the MC couldn't have friendships that lasted more than a few months. So she's used to friendships that aren't very deep. That'll change & she'll hold onto friendships like they're more important than her own life. #FantasyIndiesJuly

Oooh, just found this & LOVE these questions! 😍 23 ~ book 1 mostly takes place in a port city, but most of book 2 is outdoors with some forests, & most of book 3 is in a jungle. My WIP MC feels most alive and is most in touch with her unique skills when she's in the forest! #JulyWorldbuilders

They LOVE her of course! (Mostly...) 😉 Like life, my WIP focuses on the people she develops deep friendships *and more* with. Sure, she's got bullies, enemies, & antagonists. They all share the spotlight in the story, but most don't become side characters. #FantasyIndiesJuly

She interrupted our game of Scurvy Dice, so of course i had to snap a pic...

I think about #16 so much that sometimes I wonder if the story SHOULD be written from another character's POV! But I stick with the MC because she's the one character that ties all the different people and locations together. #FantasyIndiesJuly

Starting late, but starting! #FantasyIndiesJuly Day 22 My WIP is back in the planning/plot stage, but with many, many scenes already written. I really need prompts like this to help me talk it out more, so I'll be doing catch up posts. Hosts: @lvrussell.bsky.social and @chesneyinfalt.bsky.social
