#WritersCoffeeClub JUL-16 Theme> Is there an overriding theme to your WIP? What is it?

In a way, #SubconsciousMind is about #FoundFamily and mutual trust, and that we don't always find that in the people we expect it to.

#WritersCoffeeClub JUL-9 Is your WIP's first chapter indicative of the whole work?

Mostly, there's not that much difference, but in #SubconsciousMind, the first chapter is nothing like the rest of the story, very abstract, keeping, what's happening shrouded in mystery.

"Darkness. Floating. Nothing. Was he, or wasn’t he? Time did not exist. Nor did feelings. But somehow, he knew, he was inside himself. A prisoner of his own body without a way to communicate with the world outside. He hardly understood the meaning of β€œoutside”. But then he noticed something else … A lightβ€”a glowing spotβ€”and somehow, he knew, it was different from the darkness surrounding him." - #FirstFewWords of #SubconsciousMind #ZuriStories #WritingCommunity #WritingDiscussion #WritersChat

#WordWeavers JUL-02 What is the biggest sacrifice your MC is ready to make?

In the end of #SubconsciousMind, Gareth decides to ditch his toxic family and former best friend as well as break up with his boyfriend who can't be true to him to start his life from scratch somewhere new and finally be free

#WordWeavers MAR-06 Are there characters or events that challenge your MC's belief system?

In #SubconsciousMind, Gareth meets Stella, not knowing that they have met even earlier and both Stella and the event that sets the hare running make Gareth question if what he did in the past, was right. His retrograde amnesia (clichΓ©, I know) helps him see things more unbiased.

#PhantastikPrompts APR-03 Welche Location aus deiner Geschichte gefΓ€llt dir am besten & warum?

#SubconsciousMind spielt in Alaska, was an sich schon mal ziemlich cool ist. Lieblingsort wΓ€re wahrscheinlich das Writer's Block. Die AtmosphΓ€re dort ist einfach sehr herzlich und man kann dort Stunden verbringen.

Und das Lokal gibt es auch in RL:

The Writer's Block Bookstore & Cafe – Community, literature, music and arts venue with beer, wine, food and drinks in Spenard, Anchorage, Alaska.

#WordWeavers APR-06 Does your MC feel understood? Why/why not?

Gareth is lied to by his parents and girlfriend. His boyfriend is more committed to his reputation than to their relationship. So, no, he mostly doesn't feel understood. Except for Stella, maybe.
