Update!! My feed may have been quiet, but a lot of work has been happening behind the scenes. 🚧

Over the past several weeks, I've been overhauling Writing Games to improve accessibility, UX, and performance. One big change is that the site moved from .com to https://writing-games.org.

Please update any links or bookmarks! 🙏 And if anything appears broken or weird, do let me know. There's always a chance I missed something.

More to come soon...

#ScribesAndMakers If you were to retell one of your novels from memory, how much do you think you would miss?

I'd love to make a "nebulos recounts empath & augur from memory" - see how I'd hack it as an oral storyteller. I'm sure the pacing would be off, and I'd doubt that I could manage to get all the nice wording I'd put into it, but it's a separate skill, one that I do have some interest in building... who knows, maybe we'll see it as a promotional activity once this publishing train gets rolling?

#WritersCoffeeClub Should anything in fiction be off-limits? What?

Funnily enough just went on a ramble about this yesterday about another fanfiction-turned-commercial-fiction that has some truly content-warning worthy content. I think ultimately though that's due to non-existent disclaimers and the reviewing body not being clear enough that it's a work of kink/gratification.

More generally though, I suspect that "off-limits" may be a hard way to discuss this topic. More useful might be to say that people should be prepared to deal with the consequences of writing fiction - and tackling the systemic inequalities that protect certain groups from consequences while preventing others from enacting them...

Let's pick something mildly controversial, eh?

I don't like ensemble casts lmao. I feel like I always end up only really liking one of the ensemble, and invariably the one who gets the least amount of screen time, thus leading me to spend the whole time getting my hopes up for ensemble roulette. So in my own writing we get 100% queer-coded guile-hero deadpan-snarker protagonist time!

#ScribesAndMakers Share the last sentence you wrote in your WIP

The last thing I did was finish a short story, so

"The noodlemaker and the roboticist looked to their counterparts, then each other, and bowed."

#WritersCoffeeClub In what ways do you see yourself reflected in your own work?

I think part of the reason my "niche" changes so much is that my writing is very much reflective of whatever is going on in my life, which in turn is always changing. When I presumably, eventually, stop writing as much for my own processing purposes, maybe I'll start to be more consistent. But until then, it'll be a merry-go-round of genre, voice, style, etc.

#WritersCoffeeClub What's your niche?

Definitely the "once fully explained, becomes even more bizarre and inexplicable" niche. Extremely marketable, I know.

#ScribesAndMakers What's the lowest number of readers/viewers/users of your creative work that you would consider cause for celebration?

Been finding that one thoughtful comment about how my work touched them is incomparable to any amount of numbers, to be honest.
