Kreig Durham#WritingWonders Day 19: What things from your world/story would you like to exist in real life?
The ability to ride on the backs of giant birds of prey would be pretty sick.
#WritingWonders Day 18: Does your MC have a love interest?
Meredith doesn't see herself as having time for love. She's far too driven by her need to prove herself. Maybe she'll get swept up in love unintentionally, but she tries not to think about things like that.

em writing queer myth ⛲️You can call me Em (they/any). 👋 My partner @dontdoitneil and I write stories of #queer survival and modern sorcery, inspired by action-adventure #anime series like Revolutionary Girl Utena, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Fate, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Devilman Crybaby, and Arcane: League of Legends.
You can follow the hashtag #ThoseWhoCreateAndDestroy to keep up to date on our grimdark-yet-hopepunk epic switchblade-and-sorcery novel. The complete Parts 1 and 2 are free to read online at https://readformandvoid.com, and Part 3, the conclusion, will be released this summer. (You can also download an ebook of the complete Part 1 here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qvka99my5qpmorx/AADmBqZirCshdOwFR0KJKlf7a?dl=0 📖)
My other account is @emrys (and that's the place to get in touch with me if I don't respond to you from here—writeout.ink has some bigger servers, such as mastodon.social, suspended). Here on writeout.ink, I share a lot of excerpts from my #fiction, thoughts on #gender, #trauma, #plurality, #MentalHealth, mysticism and radical thought paradigms, and occasional #poetry.
I came to #Mastodon with the October #TwitterMigration and have been amazed by all the creative and fascinating people here. I'm really enjoying getting to know you all, especially the many of you who are into kickass and deeply personal queer stories, and even creating your own! 🤝

W.M. AkersYo #writingcommunity! Following up on a post from @Monday, I would love to hear about where y'all get character names from.
When I need names from a specific time period I will often mix and match first and last names from contemporary baseball rosters and society columns. You get a nice blend of era-appropriate weirdness.
What about y'all?

Kat FirebladeFor myself, I suppose I'm a bit old school in that I have a specialized Word document I created. I usually have one per story and I'll keep track of all my characters in it, with a ToC so I can easily get to anyone's notes. It contains things pertinent to the story like background, magical powers, unique traits, relationships, etc. And I can add unique categories as needed.
I've shared it before, so if you're interested....
