Quote: What held my attention was one red glass ball hanging on a bottom branch.

#PennedPossibilities 151#Writing Are you proud of your MC? Have they accomplished anything worthy of that pride and satisfaction?

I love my MCs more than I am proud of them. A growth arc is part of my story, so if I think about it I am proud of them growing up to be strong, loving, queers who are proud of themselves.

LesFicFri: Stare

From: Kaori’s Song: A Women's Eyes

There she was. I had found Kotohime again. There was no mistaking that glorious ginger hair. I went part-time to the same university she did, so finding her hadn’t been too hard. I had tried to be patient waiting for her to call me, but she hadn’t. So there I was in the cafeteria, waiting to see if she ate lunch there.

Mother is finding old letters I sent her when I was 17 and in the hospital with anorexia. This one is dated March 28, 1988.

This is part of the reason I write books. So nobody has to feel as weird and alone as my 17 year old self did. Friends, there is no such thing as normal.

The cover of We All Fall Down by Rose Szabo has a shield in the middle and is split diagonally by two crossed swords, the top quadrant is a young black man with a halo surrounded by knives, holding the hilt of a sword, the bottom quadrant is a young black woman, with tentacles, her halo is surrounded by waves. The left quadrant is a gender ambiguous white youth in a flowered shirt looking over their shoulder, halo surrounded by branches, right quadrant is a muscled white woman, in a tank top, halo surrounded by flames.
A screencap of text "It was the woman from that morning on the riverbank. Not the one who had left the body, but the one who had found it. She'd taken off her jacket now and was wearing a white undershirt and a gun in a shoulder holster, the muscles of her shoulders straining hard against the weight of the water as she pushed it away behind her. She was rowing badly, but it didn't matter, because she was stronger than the river. Bending it to her will. Turing thought, once again, of the picture of the knight she'd gone looking for. But a different image came to mind as the woman got close enough for her face to be visible. She looked like a statue of a young Apollo, with a sloping nose and soft lips."

It took a while, and three different major design changes, but I think I have a solid draft for the What You Will: A Queer-er Shakespeare cover.

A small reminder that I've created a discord server for queer fiction writers looking for support in their writing excursion. It's invite only, so check out the post below, and if you're interested DM me for an invite.

ETA: The server is for those 21+, but a case by case exception is made for those in the 18-20 range.

Gonna make a pinned toot for this just in case someone needs it. I've created a #Discord server for #QueerWriters who are looking for a little support in their #writing journey. Primarily for fiction writers.This is for those needing motivation, bulldozing through their writer's block, steady kicks in the ass to get through your editing, and whatever else that's preventing you from completing your WIP or hindering your progress.

It's invite only at the moment, and just me, but I'm excited for others to join. So DM me for an invite. While this should be obvious, but some people are obtuse, this is a trans-friendly server. I'm using the term queer super loosely.

The hard part about writing a serial that you're not sure anyone else is reading is that there is no one to cackle with about the ridiculously large and chaotic family in one book.

Three adults navigating a triad, a whole bunch of foster kids, one child by blood, a spare adult who is not a ghost and yet appears out of darkness, and a random adopted aunt who likes to help people kick their frustrations out.

Found family is my kryptonite.

Planting Life in a Dying City (Kolchais, E1: the Fog)

Kolchais trudged through the market, doing eir best to ignore the thudding pain accompanying each step, each breath. Ey couldn't take day work like Lefeng and Tsouchm, could barely help clear the debris and prepar the ground to build their new home.

But ey could do this. Little as it was...

As I'm reading the anthology He Bears the Cape of Stars, I finally reached my own story. And I reread it for what feels like the zillionth time.

I'm pleased to say that while I'm still sick of reading it, I also still love it. I still love Ellis and Sasha and I hope that somewhere out there is a reader who loves them as much as I do.

Just finished Ben Winshaw's performance of E.M. Forster's "Maurice" on #audiobook and... it was freaking lovely. I haven't re-read that one in decades, and I'd forgotten so much of it.

S'funny how the memory misremembers plots. I'd have sworn Clive all but exits after a quarter of the book, but, uh, not so much? ;)

The afterword still resonates in today's world, which... Well. Yeah.

Day 12: Are there any themes that pop up a lot in your writing?

Found family is probably the biggest. Self-discovery or self-exploration is another one. The understanding that being different isn't being broken. Finding coping mechanisms (and apparently grounding techniques, but I didn't know they were that until recently).

I really love exploring non-romance relationships a LOT.

On the left is Kao-san, a woman with long black hair tinted lavender on the ends. She is dressed in black with the Bandmaid logo peeking out from behind a black leather blazer.

On the left is a title and quote:

My Girlfriend Almost Got Me Killed, so We had Wild Sex
Chapter 18: Black Butterfly

By: Nara Moore
Art: Mai-sensei

“Do you love ME? I love you so desperately. You love how I look: my hair, my eyes, my mouth, but do you love ME? Do you love the mixed-up girl who quotes songs, sees ghosts, only studies to please you, the woman who stalked you, and brought evil into your life? What if I dropped out of uni? Would you love me if one of those things scarred me, or left me twisted?”

I tried to shush her, but she went on. The heat had gone out of voice, and instead, she seemed distant. Her eyes were unfocused, as if looking at something I couldn’t see. “He comes to me at night, in my dreams. He tells me he loves me and that you don’t. That you will tire of our games and find someone normal. You will marry and forget me! I try to not listen, but if you left, I don’t know what I would do.”

Took a break after the first book to read some manga/graphic novels including: The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese and The Carp on the Chopping Block Jumps Twice by Setona Mizushiro, Give volume 7 by Natsuki Kizu, and Zero at the Bone by Jane Seville.

Jules looked up, looked straight at Rory, his black eyes almost pleading. “I don’t want to have to watch you to go down this fucked-up road, period. Do you fucking understand?”

Rory held his breath.

“And it’s not because I’m ‘such a good guy.’” Jules made exaggerated air quotes. “I know you think that’s all I care about, doing the ‘right thing,’ and I guess that ought to be a fucking compliment, but it just makes me feel like you think I don’t have my own stupid feelings like a normal stupid human being. I want to protect you because I fucking want to. I know I said that one time I’d never ask you for anything again, but I guess that was a lie, ’cause I asked you to help me with Max, and now I’m asking for this. And I think I’m entitled to it. ’Cause God knows, Rory Navarrete, you will never stop owing me. And if that’s not a good enough reason for you, then I guess you’re right—you’re not the person I thought you were.”

Rory was silent a moment, letting this soak in. “You really don’t think I’m a lost cause, huh?”

Jules’s only answer was a shrug.

“Just so you know,” said Rory, after a long pause, “this is a pretty weird not-friends thing we have going on here.”

Jules side-eyed him. “Human relationships aren’t always easy to define.”

A woman, Miyazaki Shirohime stands to the left. She has ginger hair fastened in a French braid, blue eyes, and is wearing a gray blazer and greenish pants. Title and URL for the story are in text.

On the left is a quote that reads: “As I got ready, I looked in the mirror and saw I looked better than I felt. There were black smudges under my unusual blue eyes. Did I see reproof in those eyes, or was it just my imagination? I took the moment to examine my face, trying to imagine what that woman saw in it. She said it was cute, while I saw an average face. It was a serious face, the blue eyes and ginger hair marring my otherwise Japanese features.”

Does anyone have contact information for nonbinary writer Mattie Ganson, living in Chicago (at least last I've heard)?

They deleted their twitter and I'm wondering if they are somewhere in the fediverse now.

I would like to contact them about a story they had in Foglifter a few years ago.

First book of 2023 is the Rainbowcrate edition of How to Bite Your Neighbor & Win a Wager by D.N. Bryn.

This edition is gorgeous (even without the cover) and the story is fun so far.

While this is not the absolute newest book on my TBR it is really close and it’s going to count for that slot since I feel slightly guilty for letting it jump the queue!
