Morning #ScribesUnited! It's a bit after 8am my time & I've got the day off for long-awaited dr's appointments. In the meantime, I'm still noodling on the story that grabbed me by the throat yesterday & hope to finish a draft today.

#scribesunited My plan for today is writing, writing, writing. I've finally gotten past a particularly grueling section to write and a weekend of mulling on what comes next has laid out a nice path for day's work. Now I just have to get it down on paper.

#ScribesUnited My brother found a copy of Lord of Scoundrels by Loretta Chase, an old romance novel that I originally read back in high school, so I decided to reread it for my Bewitched Book Challenge for the Rosemary prompt. Tomorrow is my dad's birthday.

#ScribesUnited (23:31 JST) I did what I set out to do today! Audiobook version of ToLaC Gwyn is wrapped and uploaded to YT! Now I have a different problem of waiting for YT to "process" 5 hours and 45 minutes of video so I can actually get the CCs in and schedule the dang thing. ._.

#ScribesUnited Monday is laundry day, so the first load is on. I have product descriptions to write, shop admin, washing up, and some WIP notes to collate as well as writing. However, I aggravated my back while sleeping and woke up really anxious, depressed, and in pain, so we'll see how we go.

Morning #ScribesUnited. It is 7:10 here on the Pacific Coast, it is cloudy and a bit foggy. Today is my start of my work week and I don't wanna. My plan for today is to weave in some editing where I can. I need to get fancy and schedule marketing posts. That will not happen today.

5) MC at a costume party I think Renard would find it very funny to pretend to be somebody's pet at a party and then shock people by talking to them. The looks on their faces! #FantasyIndiesSpooktober
5) What would your MC wear to a Halloween party?A drawing of a fox with blue eyes, wearing a white bandana.

4) Ideal happiness Renard (fox): his dream throughout my first book is to be a dad. He wants a family of his own. His version of happiness would be that: a mate, family, and quiet life at home with them. Killer (Deinonychus): She would say her ideal happiness is to be left alone! #LitHodgePodge

#ScribesUnited I'm awake, but both the body and brain chose violence today, so that might have been my first error. I have some shop admin to do, product descriptions to write, and a snippet to find for SundaySnips. Hopefully the rest of the day will be split between writing and making jewellery.

4) Definition of Bravery My definition of bravery is the same as Mark Twain or Nelson Mendela. To paraphrase: courage is not the absence of fear, but the ability to act in spite of it. Renard would agree with me, and maybe throw in some Dune "I must not fear" as well. #FantasyIndiesSpooktober

Good morning #ScribesUnited I wrote the first scene of Siren WIP and then excitedly told my husband about it. He pointed out that my character is basically magic roofie-ing people… which I had to have a sit and think about for a while. I guess this project is gonna be a little different.

2) Crossover My cast would be amazing Phantom Thieves (Persona 5). Stealing hearts, stylishly. Speaking of crossovers though, I did write a stupid crossover fanfic where two of my characters teach the "Wings of Fire" dragonets how to play D&D. Shenanigans definitely ensue. #LitHodePodge

2) Spooky recs Confession time! Although I do love spooky season, I don't like horror, so that severely limits my spooky media consumption. I can handle spooky but not scary! So I'll go with "Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf." Or "Scooby Doo on Zombie Island." #FantasyIndiesSpooktober

2) Why do you write? Honestly? I feel compelled. There are stories in my head that demand to be told. There are characters i my head that demand to be let free. Loudly. They have unionized and they have demands. I have always been like this, even when I was a child. #PretendPanel

Guard Jeri the botanist spends her first night in a Zadan forest. It's noisier than she expected! #WIPSnips
"Is there... something out there?"
She heard the fox yawn. "Define 'something.'"
"Something that's going to eat us!" she hissed.
"No, there's nothing out there we need to worry about."
"How can you be so sure?" Jeri demanded. "It's so loud!"
"Okay. Sit up for a second." Jeri did so, curling her legs under her. "Reach out your hands, please." Jeri did, and flinched as she felt Renard's furry paws grip her fingers. "Okay, now, take a deep breath." Jeri just looked askance at him. "I saw that! Deep breath. Humor me." Fine. Jeri did, taking a deep breath in, and out. "Now, let me tell you what you hear. Insects, night birds, small mammals, frogs, bats. What do all these creatures have in common?"
"They're really noisy?" Jeri guessed.
She heard the fox chuckle. "That, sure, but they're also small. Small and vulnerable. And yet they feel comfortable making all that noise. Why do you think that is?"
"Um... they feel safe? Because they know there's nothing dangerous out there?" She suddenly felt rather foolish.
"Correct. They're doing their normal things. Looking for food, guarding their territories, calling for mates. They wouldn't be making all that noise if there was something lurking around that was likely to hurt them. A noisy forest is a safe forest. When the woods go silent, that's when you worry. Make sense?"
"Yeah. It makes sense. Sorry."
"It's fine. You're out of your comfort zone and things are scary. That's why you're here: to learn. It's okay. I'll be listening for danger. I'm a light sleeper. If the forest goes quiet, I'll notice, and I'll wake you up. For now, you should sleep."
"Right, okay." She lay back down. She wasn't sure how she was going to get back to sleep with all this noise!
