#WordOfTheDay : Callithump

A boisterous or boastful parade.

"The missus leads the callithump."

#PennedPossibilities 920 — How does your MC feel about their childhood home?

Rosie didn't come from a stable home. Her family kept moving for work, and her Father left when she was quite young. She has fond memories of him though.
She communicates with her mother, but only about once a week.

#WritersCoffeeClub 2/3. What signature marks your work as definitively and effectively yours?

I write my own kind of feel-good stories where the characters go through a lot but end up happy and in a good place.

Oh, and I can do my own translations. Not that I do that often.

#PennedPossibilities 920 — How does your MC feel about their childhood home?

For a long time, the Owl House was the only home Moon had. Which means it felt normal and safe - except it wasn't safe.

Moon escaped, and is gradually realizing how awful and manipulative her life in that prison was. It is terrifying to see a childhood in a very different light.

It's a process all my Winds & Pillars go through, in varying degrees, dealing with trauma.

Em-dashes? (joke)

I'm not sure there's anything I do that's uniquely me, and I'm not sure it matters.
