#WritersCoffeeClub May 26 In your work, how much of an active character is your setting?

In an "MC vs world" story, the world *has* to be an active antagonist. It needs to get some hits in early, and continue to harass the protagonist, and frustrate their plans.

I think my world is a reasonably impressive antagonist, all things considered.

There's something *deeply* satisfying about holding in your hands a book that you wrote.

SECONDARY's also available on Kindle. But physical books are best. 😁

#TimeTravelAuthors 17: Crowds

The MC is not dressed properly for the alternate timeline he's exploring:

"The crowd mostly took less notice of me. No, that’s not quite right–there were a lot more people giving me dubious looks. Everyone took less… 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑟𝑛 about me, though. In the throng of pedestrians, I was ‘somebody else’s problem.’"

#TimeTravelAuthors 15: How complicated is your time travel?

It takes a nuclear plant and billions in special technology to generate enough power to move individual photons around. (The designer eventually figures out how to move roughly a grain of sand... so long as you're cool with a nuclear meltdown and maybe an explosion or two.)

Jim doesn't understand how it actually works... at all. Which becomes a major problem once the machine gets hijacked.

Finished a vague first chapter of this anthro/kinda furry story. Can I send it to anyone for a second opinion? Just as a proof of concept

#anthro #furry #furryfandom #furrycommunity #writing #amwriting #writingSFF

Making a kinda post apocalyptic fantasy setting where all the people are descended from animal-human hybrids made by a now extinct mankind.

Do I stick to just mammals? or have lizards, birds and whatnot?
