Rachel is arrested for kicking the ass of a bigot who attacked Katie in a parking lot after one of their gigs. (A bigot who wound up being an off duty cop.) Katie calls her mother (a lawyer) for help and is understandably freaking out. walkerharris.net/phlqueens/eps/pq-014.html #WritingQ

I wrap my arm around my waist, hugging myself and let my index finger trace a belt loop over and over. My feet are tapping nervously but much too fast to be in sync with this awful hold music which aggravates me even more.

This shitty hold music cannot prevent my cacophony of thoughts the way Beethoven did, so it all bursts out in a rambling mess half at Kyle and half at the universe in general. “It is already mid-afternoon. If she does find a good recommendation, I have no idea if they can see us on short notice and then how quickly they can act. Even if they act quickly, what can we do? How much might bail be set at? Will we have money or will I have to ask my mother for a loan for that? What restrictions will Rachel be under? Can her job fire her if she is an accused felon but not convicted? Fuck fuck fuck!”

The gang meets one of the headlining bands and winds up Katie met (and made out with!) one of them at summer camp as a teenager. Aww, such a sweet start to a second chance rom... wait, no! That's not supposed to be her romance arc!😬 From Philosopher Queens, my rock romance/drama serial🎸❤️ #WIPSnips

“I cut my lip on your braces.” I laugh. “I had totally forgotten about all that. I cannot believe it!”

Rachel says, “So I just have to know, how far did you two wind up going behind that band shell? Oh my God, Katie, don’t tell me your first time was with Brody MacNeil frontman of the Knights of Future Glory!”

“No!” I say. “We didn’t do that much.”

Brody says, “Well…”

“Hey, all clothes stayed on. You tried to get handsy if I recall, but I did not let you.”

“I seem to recall you were the handsy one,” he says.

Screenshot of prose fiction text on a web page. At the top is an illustration of a white man with curly black hair rubbing the back of his neck, and he name "AJ" to indicate the POV character.

“Not sure if you want to use it, but it’s always handy to have a few extra tools in the toolbox. It can also help, if you don’t mind.” He puts a hand over mine and the other on my forearm. His hands are rough, but surprisingly warm. “Rather than doing all of the twist with your wrist, try to do about half of it with your whole forearm.”

He twists my arm slightly, indicating what he means.

“It’s gentler on the joints, and with practice it can be as fast as a wrist flick.”

His thumb caresses my arm just slightly before he lets go, and my gaydar immediately goes off. It was a tiny movement, and probably nothing. It sure seemed deliberate, though.

It seems someone isn't happy with her dad's just-a-friend/not-a-girlfriend.😬 From Philosopher Queens, my rock romance/drama serial and a mini-arc appropriately called "Autumn Transitions." (Which I'm way behind on since I'm trying something different & might need to pause to catch up.) #SundaySnips

Screenshot of a work-in-progress manuscript with the word 'turn' highlighted.

Wynne POV

The front door chimes. I put on my customer service smile and turn to greet—what is she doing here?
Katie’s face lights up as she waves excitedly at me. She signs, “Hello, Wynne.” She takes the time to finger spell my whole name and is getting decent at it. She must have been practicing quite a bit. “How is your day?”
I sign and say out loud in case she doesn't know the signs, “Busy. Also, just ‘WY’ for my name sign.” I always liked the way those two letters sign together and it’s an easier than fully spelling my name. I was so often in and out of the Deaf community as I transitioned that I was never really close enough to anyone to get a new name sign that stuck.
She cringes, shrinking down into her shoulders. “Oh, sorry. I hope that was not... I just was not sure if that was only for family... I mean...” She straightens back up and even wiggles a little squaring up her shoulders before signing, “Hello, WY. I want to take you and your father to lunch.”
She is being so sweet, maybe I have judged her too harshly. Although, honestly, no matter how sweet she is, that doesn’t change her age or Rachel’s influence. Those are my biggest concerns.

Title: The Philosopher Queens (Arc 1: Road to SunnyFest) Genre: Rock romance/drama serial Word count: 138,000 (this arc, the serial is ongoing) Funniest moment: 🤷 Maybe Katie & Kyle text conversation on either side of thin motel wall (see snip for start of it) 🔗: walkerharris.net/phlqueens/

An illustration of a man, Kyle, and a woman, Katie. Kyle is sitting on a couch with a bass guitar. He is rubbing the back of his head with one hand while the other holds the bass. He is looking away with a big whincing, awkward grin on his face clearly embarrassed by his playing. He has short, dark grey hair and is wearing a simple purple shirt and khaki pants.

Katie is kneeling in the ground leaning on his leg laughing and dropping several sheets of music. She has her head in one hand and has her eyes closed. She has long brown hair, and is wearing a long sleeve green shirt with the sleeves rolled up to reveal a tattoo of music instruments and notes on one arm.

Illustration by Nush https://nushdeco.carrd.co/

Screenshot of prose fiction on a web page. There is a purple background graphic on either side that includes hearts and music instruments. At the top is an illustration of a smiling white woman with long brown hair and the name 'Katie' to denote the POV character.

I am thankfully distracted from the passionate noises from one side of the room by a loud thud, a clang, and a string of agonized grumbling from Kyle’s side of the wall.

I pick up my phone and hold it far too close to my face so that I can read it without my glasses and message him.

Katie: Are you ok?

There is some fumbling noises, then several footsteps towards the wall.

Kyle: I’m good. Just kicked a table and knocked over a lamp.
# of unbroken lamps: 1
# of unbroken toes: 9
Sorry to wake you. Guess the walls are pretty thin or I was louder than I thought.

I chuckle at Kyle’s messages.

Katie: I presume # of broken toes is 1 or is that an old war injury? 😉

From revisions, 2 contrasting reactions Katie (& her ND) has to 2 guys. 1: awkward reaction to hot guy 😬 2: calm with cute, kind guy 😍 Quirky Katie is my favorite Katie.😅 #FaveLineFriday

Screenshot of a work-in-progress manuscript.

I stand up from the picnic table we were sitting around and gather up our trash. Brody pushes himself up and those thick, muscled arms flexing definitely gets a reaction out of my body even if my heart and mind are yearning to get back to the campsite.
My overwhelmed brain shifts to worry mode wondering whether a simple goodbye works or if I should say a more personalized parting. Rachel is still annoyed and not picking up on my confusion.
When Brody flashes that, admittedly, really hot smile, I stammer out, “It was a pleasure meeting you again and, uh, it looks like your braces did a fine job!” What the shit fucking shit was that? Maybe I should crawl into the trash can and disappear from this world.
Thankfully, he laughs genuinely and not in that “You are so weird that I do not know how to respond” manner I am used to hearing. “Thanks. Hey, no more cut lips.”
“Good to know!” At least my hands are full of food wrappers, cardboard trays for fries, and precariously balanced empty soda cups so I cannot follow my instinct of flashing a dorky double thumbs up. We stand there smiling at each other for a few beats too long.

Screenshot of a work-in-progress manuscript.

[Katie & Kyle are laying opposite directions in the grass with the faces together, cheek to cheek]
I could try tearing the pretzel in half, hoping it does not annoy me if I do not use a knife to more accurately cut it. However, a better, bolder idea comes to mind. I reach up and hold it out in front of his mouth.
He takes a bite. Then he hums softly and I feel it as much as hear it. “It’s still warm. And I agree. This is all very lovely.”
I take a bite and ask, “So have you just been staring at the sky this whole time?” Part of me recoils at talking to him with a bite of pretzel in my mouth, but that part is easy to quiet. I first met him by apologizing with a mouthful of cookie and every day since it has grown easier around Kyle to simply not worry about so many things that normally clutter my mind. I do not stress about following scripts of how I should act and how I should talk.
With Kyle, I can just be.

Here's the little cliffhanger from this week's episode of Philosopher Queens, my rock romance/drama serial. The band meets one of the headline groups and lead singer Brody surprises them by claiming to already know Katie! What's going on? Find out Monday! walkerharris.net/phlqueens/ #FridayFling

Screenshot of a prose fiction text on a web page with the word 'grounds' highlighted.

At the top is an illustration of a smiling white woman with long, brown hair and the name 'Katie' to denote the POV. Along the sides is a purple background graphic that includes hearts and music instruments.

I blurt out, “That sounds fabulous!” Then I catch myself and look at Rachel as our manager to get her advice. “Sorry, I mean, what do you think? Your call.”

Rachel points a finger at Brody, “In my day job, I edit HR training videos, so I have explained quid pro quo so many times and in so many ways that it gets into my dreams. As long as we are clear about that.”

Brody throws his hands in the air. “Absolutely, ma’am! I would never!” He actually takes a nervous step back.

Rachel laughs. “Alright, that’s cool. Just gotta make that shit clear. So what did you have in mind? Want to wander the grounds and hear some of the other bands?”

“That'd be perfect,” Brody says. “Although, to be completely transparent, we should make one disclosure.” He looks at me and raises an eyebrow. That look usually means someone expects something of me but I am clueless here.

“What?” I ask.

“I didn’t realize that was you until your intro, but it is wonderful to see you again, Katie. It sure has been a while.”

What the fuck?

The video call with the news anchor ends and he lets out the biggest sigh I have ever heard from him. He types a couple things in the chat with Noor and Vincent, and then closes it.
Turning to me, his face brightens in a smile. “Hey, how’s your day been?”
“Uh, good. Sounds like yours is more exciting,” I say.
“Nah. Nothing much exciting here. Just burning bridges on nation-wide cable news while trying not to open myself up to a defamation lawsuit. I’m thinking pizza for dinner. You eat yet?”

I pull myself away from watching them to see a thousand people or more rocking out to our music—bouncing and waving their arms in unison. It is so much fun I cannot believe it!

Until there is a flash of bright light from the other side of the stage, immediately followed by a teeth-grindingly loud buzz, and then silence from Katie’s guitar.

No! I prepare to threaten God for the second time this week if either Katie or Rachel are hurt.

Thankfully, they both appear fine but Katie’s pedals are sparking while she stumbles back, startled. Rachel manages to yank the cord out of Katie’s guitar without missing a note of her singing. A member of the tech crew hustles towards them from off stage, as well.

In Philosopher Queens, the entire band (4) are POV characters. I use 1st POV so it's clear who is POV. Year 1 focuses a lot on Katie & Kyle's romance arc, so they get most POV scenes. I use AJ & Rachel POV a lot, as well, to either get another perspective or for subplots. 1/4 #AwesomeCharacters

Things get pretty hot between Katie & Kyle while dancing. She considers taking things further but worries how she would handle it considering her past trauma responses due to The Shithead, her ex-fiance. I wonder what the plans she refers to are?🤔 (Find out in 2 months!😉) #WIPSnips #Romancelandia

Screenshot of a work-in-progress manuscript with the word 'meltdown' highlighted.

I feel like the predator now but do not like the feeling of Kyle as my prey. I do not want to terrify him. I want us to devour each other. The look on Kyle’s face is a mix of hunger… and worry.
Without him pressed against me, my thoughts begin to clear as well. What if we tried to cross that line tonight? Would he even want to? Would I even be capable of that without a meltdown?
I know if we tried that path and I did freak out with a panic attack, he would be understanding. But I do not know if I could recover from that. Either way, he would be gentle, but do I even want gentle? I am still nervous about my plans for the rest of the night, but I am also desperately needing to follow through with them. Aching to.
But a good song is a mixture—moments of intensity and moments of calm.

For them.” I look across the stage at the brightest part of this past summer as she adjusts her guitar and directs that beautiful smile at the gathered crowd. Even standing here alone, I am afraid to speak it into the world, but I softly whisper, “For Katie.”

With my Philosopher Queens rock romance/drama serial, most of the characters presume their saddest moment is behind them, but that doesn't necessarily put them on an upswing. (Also, some of them are wrong and their saddest moments are yet to come because I'm a mean author.😈) 1/6 #AwesomeCharacters

Don't normally snip too far past Year 1, but here's a sneak peak of AJ meeting Daniel (his soon to be Love Interest) at the start of Year 2 of Philosopher Queens - my rock romance/drama serial. (New episodes every Monday!) #SundaySnips

I am happy to announce that "Magica Riot" is this year's Indie Ink Award winner for "Best Light Read." When I started this series I had no idea of all the places it'd take me and the amazing works by my peers it would stand alongside. So many thanks to the judges & my readers! 💜 magicariot.com

If you're in the US, I really suggest checking out the Queer Liberation Library. Digital collection, readable with Libby!

Absolutely poignant and lovely blog post about the vulnerability and challenge of goals in writing. I bet we can all find something in here that resonates with our experiences, and Paisley captures it well. (Also, go pre-order her next book! Go!) author.paisleyrosebooks.com/books/get-lu...
