When your governmental leaders are a joke, sometimes you have to just treat them like the whining, tantrum filled two year olds they are.

Any man who pointedly ignores his wife's request NOT to be humiliated, potentially hurt, and doesn't want her hair/makeup/dress ruined...um...shouldn't be married. Frat boy crap, caveman dominance crap. Idiots.

Watching YouTube. Guy smashes wife's face into wedding cake after she begs him not to. Guy knocks his bride down to smash cake in her face. One word: Divorce. Actually three words: Divorce, assault charge. Violent lack of respect, and considering cakes often have dowels, endangerment.

Major pet peeve: people, it's not a "fiction novel"...a NOVEL is by definition, fiction. According to @merriam-webster.com: an invented prose narrative that is usually long and complex and deals especially with human experience through a usually connected sequence of events.

The magnitude has been further refined to M8.8. It may seem like 8.7 and 8.8 are close, but the difference actually means about 40% more energy released. Logarithmic scales will do that!

If you want your writing to come to life--figure out what you love about it and pour yourself into that. Learn how to write characters who are three-dimensional, who have quirks, flaws, strengths, and who make mistakes. Whether they're a wolf shifter, a tree nymph, or human--make them relatable.

I love using disparate elements that shouldn't go together, but actually do. I love making the gods living, breathing entities who walk the earth beside us. I love making vampires rule the financial systems (it tracks, to me). I love the Shifters forming unions, the witches bring magic to life.

Yasmine Galenorn @yasminegalenorn.bsky.social · 09/07/2025

Why do I write urban fantasy? Because I love it. I love the whole family of choice element that's in almost every one of my series. I love the underdogs fighting against the Big Bads. I love the reluctant chosen one. I love the contemporary setting meeting the fantasy elements. I love what I write.

So, y'all know I was trad pubbed for 20 years before I went indie. I made the choice to go indie when my then-publisher asked me if I could change an idea for a gritty urban fantasy/PNR series to contemporary erotica. I walked away because no, I could and would not. 1/1 #writingtips

Medicaid keeps children alive and rural hospitals open. Senators should listen to the individuals who will be impacted before voting on these devastating cuts. Tell them why their healthcare is getting cut to give tax breaks to billionaires.
