Can humans have Scars that other don't see? ... My theory is that we are the sum of our moments. Some are so intense that they form a brand. Not a Fellen Scar, made with a dolsten blade, but one that forms the same pattern within. — Nihlen Lokke, 1880. #CampRevPit #CRPnessie

The 20 Weak Words to Cut! These two videos have really changed the way I write. I enjoy my own writing a lot more because of them. Shout-out Abbie Emmons: - youtu.be/q-fTxypPFRU?... - youtu.be/a7E1eItC-30?... #CRPnessie #CampRevPit

The goal right now is to improve. Write with purpose. I have a plan and routine. But if I got this WIP published it would probably land next to The Last Contract of Isako (which is out next week but it is Cyberpunk Fantasy which is what I'm writing currently). #CRPnessie #CampRevPit

I mean... DRAGONS! No fantastical beings on my current WIP, but the previous story has magical beings based on Alebrijes, which are colorful Mexican folk art sculptures depicting fantastical, hybrid creatures. #CRPnessie #CampRevPit

I'm newer to writing so I haven't encountered this too much yet. But I really believe in doing a writer's brief so that I know what I want to accomplish in the day. - Goal of my writing - What will make this scene someone's favorite? #CRPnessie #CampRevPit

Coming over from #CRPnessie. Japan, 1600. Lev is a Ronin who missed out on the battle of Sekihara, looking for the legendary names of samurai to face. He aims to establish a new style of sword and pistol to dominate the Edo period. #CRPCabinRaids #CRPDryads

Uuuu. I'd love to send Lev to Scadriel (Mistborn Era 1). He would be excited to test his sword and scars against Mistborn and would most definitely set his sights on a fight against Inquistors and eventually the Lord Ruler. #CRPnessie #CampRevPit

I give myself time to build as much of an encyclopedia (with entries that read as a madman's ramblings). My favorite part is how lost I get with it, once I find a thread I just pull and it goes. I love having a plan before writing, but open to discovery in the process. #CRPnessie #CampRevPit

Writing with a playlist is a gamechanger. My go to is Delivery, inspired by Death Stranding's soundtrack. For this work, I have been interchanging that with the Tron Legacy soundtrack for more cyberpunk vibes. Cyberpunk 2077 and Blooborne are also in the back of my mind constantly. #CRPnessie

Finished up the prologue for my WIP yesterday! Excited and inspired. Lev is more an outdoors person. He loves riding his bike in the rain. His special skill is his ability to be relatable to others, regardless of their background. In a city that has clear socieconomic divisions, that is rare.

Bit late for this one, but Mara would hate a s'more from Lev. She would take it from others tho. Lev eats whatever is available. Ramen, check, burgers, check, a dodgy market stand, it will do. He would share snacks, after all buying food is not a problem for him.

Hey #CRPnessie! I'm Rodrigo Salazar Ortega and I am an SFF writer. Super excited about #CampRevPit. My current WIP is a trilogy of novellas set in a Cyberpunk world with fanatsy and slight cosmic horror elements. The books I'd take on a trip with me would be The Hobbit and The Final Empire.

I submitted for #RevPit last night. Honestly the feeling of finishing something like this novella is still unreal. Thank you to all the editors for taking the time and for answering so many questions from myself and the other authors. Congratulations to everyone who submitted!
