i don’t know how this was the only instance of the word original in my entire draft but i’m not mad at it #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts #WIPSnips

I glance up into his dark eyes, so full of concern and pleading, and know that I can trust him. Magnus may work for my mother, may have originally been tasked with guarding me, but over the years, he has become my closest confidante. And shame and regret wash over me when I think about how I've taken him for granted all these years.
"Flameheart," I choke out. "The Flameheart is coming."

#WIPSnips tfw you don’t appreciate or understand your mom until after her death oh and also the dragon you’ve hated your entire life becomes inextricably linked to your soul✌🏻

Though we have only been in each other's minds for a few days, the loss of Vorvuth's consciousness alongside mine feels as if some vital part of me, a lung or a limb, perhaps, is missing. I had always judged Mother for her unwillingness to part from him, thinking it an overreaction or an excuse to not spend more time with her human family, but I understand now. This pain is unbearable and I curl in on myself, thankful that my bindings have been removed, as I try to hold my body together while it in turn tries to collapse in on itself.

#WIPSnips running is actually sort of a…running theme throughout the story for my MC shafira

Her hand is sun-warmed when she places it on my cheek, hot enough to burn the spot where our skin makes contact. I flinch away and Mother frowns, hurt flashing in her eyes. "You can't run from this forever, Shafira." Her voice is cold, dropping the loving mother act she had tried to put on not even a minute before.

"Refusal is not running," I remind her. This is my standard line in this argument, the expected line in a play neither of us agreed to be in. "If I wanted to run, I would have done it a long time ago."

#WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity just wrote this today and even though it’s first draft quality i like it a lot

You won't live long enough for it to matter."

"You keep saying that. And, yet, I'm still alive."

He stops his pacing and plants himself directly in front of me. He crouches down, elbows resting on his thighs, hands under his chin. The hard steel of his gray-eyed stare steals the breath from my lungs and turns my already weak muscles into gelatin. All I want to do is wither and die, just so he can't look at me anymore.

He's conquered so many people, I think. How many of them died with his face as the last thing they saw?

#MelsNoWriMo wish i could say there was a reason i chose this snippet but there’s not. i think it’s pretty good though 😉

Still, I flop onto a secluded stretch of sand far away from the fishing boats. The movement hurts, but soon my body relaxes into the sand. I stare up at the cloudless day, the sky a blue too brilliant for the turmoil roiling inside of me. All this trouble and nothing to show for it, I think pathetically before a laugh bubbles up in my throat.

Once the first laugh breaks through, I am powerless to stop the ones that follow. None of this is funny and my aching muscles beg me to stop, but I just keep laughing. How foolish I am to think that, even for just one day, I could be Sasha again. Sasha died five years ago when she was returned home to the palace, dressed in the finest silks, and called Shafira again.

#NovemberWorldbuilders the dragon. the dragon is blue. he’s the only one left in the world (or is he?) and he’s my favorite thing ever

The massive dragon stands at least forty feet tall and has deadly black spikes dotting his iridescent blue scales, making him look like water in motion every time he so much as flicks his tails or shakes his head. The only one of his kind remaining, Vorvuth is equal parts feared and worshipped.

no parties just taking the niblings trick or treating in what i hope isn’t rain but that’s still a better time than my MC from my wip DRAGON’S FLAME is having #WIPSnips #WriterSky #WritingPrompts

When I try to yank out of his grasp, he digs his thumb painfully into my cheek, forcing eye contact. "I should kill you now, daughter of Grimli." His eyes flick upwards over my shoulder to where Vorvuth is still knocked out and chained to the metal deck.

"So why don't you? Then you'll have my dragon all to yourself." I taunt, hoping he can't hear how nervous I am, how deeply in my veins the fear I have while looking into his eyes runs. As if on cue, Vorvuth grumbles and groans as whatever they did to tranquilize him wears off. I smile, knowing that even if the Archmarshal kills me, he will never control Vorvuth.

DRAGON'S FLAME (a #GhostPit guide) what happens when the person who killed your parents turns out to be your long-lost best friend? - childhood friends to enemies to lovers - stolen memories/brainwashing - dragon (yes, singular) - "i think i know you." / "you used to." #W #F #RF #YA #LGBT

left hand side: text reading With the help of her new dragon companion, eighteen-year-old Shafira hunts down the legendary assassin who murdered her parents in front of her. But things become complicated when she discovers the assassin in question is the best friend she was forcibly separated from five years previous...and that she may not be working of her own free will.

right hand side: a picture of a grassy hill in front of a fog covered mountain overlaid with texting reading Elevator Pitch

left hand side: covers for Fireborne by Rosaria Munda, the movie Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and So Let Them Burn by Kamilah Cole over text of a bullet pointed list. the list reads: childhood friends to enemies to lovers, found family, stolen memories/elements of brainwashing, war is hell and everyone loses, i think-i think i know you, you used to, grumpy old man in the form of a dragon, nobody is processing their trauma and everyone needs therapy

right hand side: an image of a night sky with stars and clouds overlaid with text that reads Tropes and Comps

left hand side: text reading excerpt above text reading:

A chill that has nothing to do with the cold wind coming off of the Hungry Deep washes over me, settling into the marrow of my bones, as I realize what I am seeing:

Mairi is the Flameheart, the assassin that was more human than myth.

Which mean that Mairi killed my parents.

right hand side: an image of what is presumably a female body clad in black fantasy-esque armor that covers everything, including the face. the figure is holding a sword in each hand and has a third strapped to their back

from my #YAFantasy WIP that’s basically if Steve/Bucky from Marvel was canon but they were teenage lesbians and also there’s a dragon #WriteSky #WritingPrompts #Romantasy

text reading "I needed to see you." The Flameheart's voice sounds detached, as if it is coming from somewhere other than her body. With an effort I didn't know I was able to muster, I push my hair away from face to get a better look at her. Able to see her clearly, I notice the way her eyes go in and out of focus.

uma is a character that only showed up in this draft and idk how i could ever do this story without her now #writingcommunity #writesky #amwriting

When she finishes with a pat to my uninjured shoulder and a muttered “Now that oughta hold for a while,” I am dizzy and nearly panting from the pain. The knuckles on my right forefinger are bruised and purpling, the indents of my own teeth deep and prominent. Uma helps me settle back onto the bed, taking care to make sure there is extra padding underneath my newly-wrapped wound. “Now, where is that boy?” she says to herself once she is satisfied that I am comfortable and safe from tearing my sutures open again. “Maddox!” she shouts to the room and I startle, wondering how it is she could both know Maddox’s name and be so familiar with him that she speaks to him as though he’s a young boy about to get a scolding from his mother.

when you meet your endgame and don’t even know it and also he doesn’t know what he’s doing because his evil brother is controlling him with blood magic #WIPSnips #writingcommunity #writersky

“You aren’t as inconspicuous as you think you are, Jewel.”

I turn on my heel to face the boy, to demand how it is he knows not only who I am but knows enough to call me by that Etherdamned nickname. But, he’s no longer standing behind me. In fact, he’s nowhere on the street at all.

He simply vanished, as if he never existed at all.

Acutely aware of the world and my place in it, I trudge back the way I came. The interaction with the strange boy has soured my desire to be in Terein a moment longer and, for once in my life, all I want is to be behind the safety of the Citadel’s walls.

taking some……creative liberties on the word “scene” 😂😂 #WipSnips #WriterSky #WritingCommunity

Terein is loud and it’s provocative and the combination of alcohol, human sweat, and waste that I hope isn’t human makes the air so foul that it’s difficult to breathe. And, yet, I keep returning. I’d live here if I could.

The man who shoves past me with an obscene insult muttered under his breath doesn’t know who I am. The vendor who insists that a pretty thing like me needs the almost certainly fake diamonds and rubies she’s selling doesn’t know that within the walls of the Citadel I am the Jewel, more priceless than anything she’s shilling.
