I've been getting stuck in over at Scribophile.com, and thanks to the critiques I've been getting, editing/rewriting has become a genuine joy for me! Here's something I made myself laugh with last night. #Writing #AmWriting #WritersOfMastodon #CreativeWriting #UrbanFantasy #DarkFantasy #OathSwornProject #OathswornTheNameless

The Nameless: Chapter 11 – Battle Plans

“Silver is anathema to them, like it is to most things that come through the breaches, so silver is how that flimsy little chain was able to trip that one up. The only downside is, it corrodes as soon as soon as it comes into contact with those sort of creatures; it’s a one-time use only thing.”

So I've been really, really slack at posting here - got a bit despondant at having to start from the bottom in terms of audience/readers. Decided to make a Wordpress site and upload the novel there! So here's chapter 4.

I haven't been to sleep yet so as far as I'm concerned it's still Wednesday so I'm allowed to do a little piece of worldbuilding: https://ko-fi.com/post/Worldbuilding-Wednesday-S6S4HS0SS

#NaNoWriMo2022 Day 26: 45,023 words at 11:45pm.

Yeah alright, that'll do for tonight.

#WritingCommunity #Writing #WritingLife #WritersOfMastodon #AmWriting #OathswornProject

Hey, #WritingCommunity? I did 2,005 words tonight. I've run out of steam and I'm still behind, but that's 2k words I probably wouldn't have written without your encouragement.

Thank you 💜

“I name you: wyrm,” Mother spoke, and her voice was so flatly calm that it scared Foxglove more than her change in appearance. The lizard seemed to flinch at the name, bringing flaming wings around to batter at the Queen even as she held it firm. She didn’t even blink. “I name you: Firebird.

Can someone bully me into doing some #Writing please? I'm 3.5k behind target for #NaNoWriMo2022 and the black dog seems to have hold of both my hands and is drooling on the keyboard.

#WritingCommunity #OathswornProject

Well, today was an excellent example of my compression gloves actually helping - I did one 20-minute sprint without them and oh boy, that sucked.

Still behind by about 2k words but I can get back on track for sure.
