#SeptemberWorldbuilders #Fantasy #Writesky #Moviesky #Magic #Witchsky I've been revisiting a classic. Bedknobs & Broomsticks. I loved it for the magic & whimsy, but now I love it more for its anti-fascism. And IMO Eglantine Price is a better witch character than any created by JK Rowling 🧵1/?

#AwesomeCharacters Bethany starts as a stroppy, sulky child who perceives herself as persecuted Heroine from a Fairy Tale. Though a victim of the small town's gossip & judgmentalism. A flawed outcast. It's not when the story goes on does Beth's perception change & mature as she accepts the truth 🧵

#WritingCommunity #Writesky #WhimsicalWriters #WritingPrompt I have a tale of an English, partial Witch who dreamed of an Otherworldly army invading the continent. To prevent the doom, she recruits a slick street magician & 4 plucky children to find the great spell to put an end to the invasion

#LateNightWrite #WritingPrompts #WritingQ #Writesky In my world of Nequinum, the people warn their children of the Cacodemons Demonic nature spirits in the form of minotaurs, ghouls, hags, sirens, harpies, redcaps, bodachs, ogres, etc. They are usually the minions of the supernatural villains.

#TBBChat Let's just say the folklore surrounding the season has helped shaped my writing. As well as piqued my interest. I have an autistic fixation on folklore, fairy tales, myths, fantasy, and legends. Been that way since childhood.

#TBBChat In the context of my story, Summer & Winter Solstice is when all animal transformation curses are neutralized. Cursed people revert to their human form, for the whole day. This is the only time the Heroine can be with her family in their human form.
