Please try to remember, the 1st of #Octember! We'll be hosting a ridiculous, nonsensical prompt game for October for drunken party game bullshit questions, and including various insane interludes of our skeletal host, Satchel Cumberland. #WriteSky #WritingCommunity

#Octember

A month long series of non-sensical
promps abou your characters and stories!

This is deliberately unplanned nonsense. Expect drunk party game questions about things like how your characters would take on Godzilla, what a monster would employ them for, what fae creatures would find them hot... Etc.

Yes! And have you seen some trad published book covers? I used to work in a book store. Half of the covers are just a stock photo with a san serif font title. Or... some public domain art with a serif font title.

Potentially hot take, we need to let go of the "Authors shouldn't make their own covers" mentality if we are going to fight back against AI "It will never look as good as a trad cover!" So what? Open canva and fuck around a bit, you can make SOMETHING, it doesnt have to be the most amazing ever

#SongsOfSeptember Day 29 (for real this time) 😅 This is a repeat answer with a twist since the song fits the protag, the antag, and their duet together! This one is for Fish and his estranged sister Dannine (again). Both lost children with scary powers, but their paths go opposite directions.

#WIPSnips Sept 25 - "nation" Synonym: "tribe" Working on the concept of the different nations in A Warlord's Desire. This is a very rough scene far in the future! Just working on the plot details. #⚔️⛓️🖤

“What about the rest of your tribe? Those who weren’t warriors? The children?”
“You will find them here,” Karlan replies, “if you look. In the tents, mostly. Living with the warriors. The truth is, many of our weaker members did not survive the journey across the desert. In particular, not many children.”
Ash is aghast. “They wouldn’t let you take supplies for the crossing?”
“We had to leave our herds behind. The cousins allowed us only our horses, to carry us away, and whatever else each mount could carry on his back. Most household possessions were left behind. People carried the children who were too young to ride on their own, and food.”

#AwesomeCharacters I'm gonna say Nico, but especially Nico from much later in the saga when he's 38 and has the build of a full-on grizzly. 🐻 Of all my characters, he's possibly the one who gets knocked around the most & will take a punch for the team. 😬

Panel 1:
A post from “kavishj9611” that reads:

“All the people who are anti-Al or want to slow Al progress, I have one question:
If Al disappeared tomorrow, could you still get through an entire workday without ChatGPT, Claude, or any other
Al tool?
Imagine Al was suddenly banned.
Would you actually be willing to give it up?”

Panel 2:
And Orange Guy and a Pink Guy are standing in a room that has two pipes in it. Both pipes are pumping raw sewage into the room. The characters are waist deep in it.
Orange Guy says smugly “Ok Mr “I don’t want to be in a room that’s filling up with raw sewage” let me ask you this”

Panel 3:
The sewage has reached their chests. Pink Guy is gagging. Orange Guy smugly continues “If all this sewage disappeared right now, could you get through the day without it?”

Panel 4:
The sewage is almost up to their eyeballs. Orange Guys says “Look at that shit floating past your face. Are you willing to give that up?”

An erotic digital illustration of my OC, the Broker, caught in the tentacled clutches of @fruitwhale’s OC Onych. Broker is a grey-skinned, black-haired, humanoid entity with long skinny limbs, sharp teeth, no nose, and one big green eye staring up at their captor. Onych is a giant, angel-like creature with two or three pairs of fleshy wings, armor full of eyeballs, and a white cloth draped over what is presumably his head and face. He has two pairs of arms, all of which are involved in holding the Broker, choking the Broker, and pushing into the star on the Broker’s chest. He also has many fleshy tentacles, three of which are joining his hand in penetrating the Broker’s chest. Another tentacle is wrapped around the Broker’s pair of tentacle-like dicks. The Broker is biting the finger Onych has put in their mouth, and gold blood is dripping down their chin.

A close up of the previous image to focus on the characters’ faces, and the penetration of The Broker’s chest star by hands and tentacles. Also their leaking dick.
