i'm at the point where i've done the first quick edit of Splintered World and realising that it's in MUCH better shape than i thought, and now i'm excited again about it going out to readers

cheers to the reader who caught the Silence of the Lambs homage in Splintered Mind; the Hannibal ref in Splintered World is just between the two of us ;) (the Martial Law/Grace Chen one is there for all of us, though)

i always love overturning tropes, and this time i'm having fun upending the "he can heal her trauma" and "she can fix him" tropes this is turning out to be a fun and profitable foray into romantasy

i do not need to be writing about a suicidal princess and the prince who kidnaps her for political expediency and now needs to try and keep her alive

welp, Thornbound is now a healthy 5k and growing. a reminder that this is not my wip. this is a rage-write that came to me yesterday. i already have two wips that need to be finished this month and next month respectively, plus a third i'm just beginning scribblies on

this is bc ai is one of the biggest modern cons, and like most cons at some point, they need to buy time it's literally in the con manual they're buying time bc it's still not working like it should, and their emperor is beginning to be seen to have no clothes

W.R. Gingell @wrgingell.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
right, so like with all other cons, the ceo is bidding for time and desperately trying to make his product workable time is what he's after. the rest is smoke and mirrors

Aussie gothic in a Tea House that has layers between worlds, but make it where she's a sensible woman with sciatica who sleeps in pyjamas and he's a manic pixie madman with a zest for life and a talent for death--

they both look so extremely modern that it wouldn't work for me personally, but i would absolutely watch the heck outta Supergirl X Daredevil (also jealous of everyone who has already seen the movie!) (would have also said the same about Dakota Johnson & she's LOVELY in period stuff, so ignore me!)

being a chaos goblin auntie is all fun and games until two accusing pairs of eyes are on you while they ask what you had for breakfast and you have to say ginger biscuits and sour worms and the youngest one says in a very firm, kindly voice, "THAT IS NOT A HEALTHY BREAKFAST AUNTIE WENDEE"

that there's a nearby tree w/two eagles in it, and that i purchased a zoom lens for my camera, is CAUSATION that i prefer short kings, and that i wrote a feral Aussie short king who occasionally wields stock whips and faces off giant crocodiles, is CORRELATION* *that you can prove, anyway ;)

W.R. Gingell @wrgingell.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
writing Aussie urban fantasy is THE most fun bc what do you MEAN i get to do scenes with giant crocs and cattle whips and still look people in the eyes and tell them i'm a full-time author
