Literary Fiction with a Magical Realism Edge
Literary Fiction (in my best description) is typically defined as stories where “The Character” takes precedence over “The Story” as well as a penchant for wonderful writing. Magical Realism (again, a...

Taking a breather from the short fiction and submissions, and I'm getting back to the novel I'd put aside a while ago. About half way through now and it's feeling good!

I really enjoyed Sunset Park. Not as analytically submersible as New York Trilogy, but a really beautiful book.

So proud of my little story! It does exactly the kinds of things that I personally love discovering in other fiction. Some sadness, perhaps some misguidedness, and a bit of magical realism. Check it out!

I recently got over a very long bout of writer's block (it was a year of not doing much more than staring at my WIP). But I'm now back on track, and the secret was this: JUST WRITE. Who knew? Hope you get back on track!

For all UK folks, posting this early. The next book, out very soon. "In 'Reality But More Fun,' Swann gives the reader a vibrant, surreal, and nightmarish romp through a collapsing reality. A book filled to the brim with menace and mirth." -Tiffany Morris, author of "Green Fuse Burning"

I had a Novella released last fall with @emergejournal.bsky.social, and I would love to give it more attention. It's Literary Fiction and only ~40 pages. I'm also happy to send an e-copy to anyone who's maybe a bit strapped, in return for an honest review. Thanks!

My 2nd novel is written this way. Mostly 3rd-person, but an omniscient 1st is sometimes used, as this story about a group of New Yorkers is being told by the city itself. It can be done!

Any #writers and/or #boardgame designers out here who might be looking for a collaborative project? I've got a game design based on writing a novel that I'm looking to re-evaluate, and a partnership might be just what I need. Reply here, we'll go from there. #authors #gamers #collaborate

Definitely. Maybe top 5 for me. That screenplay inspires so much of my own writing.

LOVED this book more than I thought I would. Quirky enough and unsettling enough to really get me into it.

R. Tim Morris @rtimmorris.bsky.social · 14/02/2024
Totally. My current WIP is SIX main characters, so I'm definitely finding difficulty in "becoming" all of them to get this thing written. POV's change chapter-by-chapter, and I'm considering just writing ALL of one character, then moving on to the next.

This all sounds VERY MUCH like myself and my own writing. I don't edit much, but the actual writing takes so long.

Not new, just a bit dusty. This is a book I'd started in 2022, but barely touched last year.

The process is not making dent for a calendar year and then flying back into the WIP in 2024 and kicking myself for not getting my shit together sooner. Trust the process.
