#ScribesAndMakers Spending a week in a book.

"Is the Order a Rabbit?"

A chill vacation drinking tea in neo-European cafes; watching young people have fun; petting rabbits in the park; and chatting with fellow writer Midori would be great.

#PennedPossibilities 1021 — Have you ever co-written a story before?

I have been given credit for co-writing, but all I really did was edit the story to be more understandable in English.

I have co-written poems. The last one was Saba Dreams: with @extraspecialbitter

Others with @MarkBrigham

Anyone interested in doing #rengay can join us.

#WritersCoffeeClub – 22nd May. How well would your current WIP work as a play?

Not well

  • Characters are always on the move, so many set changes. Though something surreal might be used for a general set.
  • It is very much 1st person POV driven. That doesn't translate well to the stage.
  • Lots of bit players, with foreign names. Very confusing.

Streamline to a few scenes per volume, and it could be done, but the multilayered plot would be lost.

#TimeTravelAuthors Char. meet any relatives when they time travel?

Bijou meets herself at two or three stages of her life, and her father, which is something she isn't willing to own up to.

This option was presented to reader votes and never scored high.

#WordWeavers May 21: How do you make your MCs likeable or relatable in the first chapter?

I am more focused on setting up an interesting story & characters than focusing on "likeability". I mainly just avoid them doing unpleasant things

#WritersCoffeeClub – 21st May. What targets do you set for yourself? To what frequency?

I have daily and weekly EP schedules. A short < 3K character EP per day and 1-2K word per week EP.

#PennedPossibilities 1019 — Has your SC ever been bullied? By who, and for what reason?

Ther are also scenes of MC's being bullied. Lots of my work is tagged that bullying appears in it. I don't shy away from the subject. It would be pretty unrealistic, given my characters are queers. I also don't wallow in it.

#WritersCoffeeClub May 20: If not your current genre, what genre would you write?

I sometimes play around with straight psychological horror. Or, if I decided to go for the top online genre, I would go back to erotica. Magical Realism or Weird Tales are other possibilities.
