On this Trans Day of Visibility, Ashrah wishes to remind all her trans sisters that they are powerful and beautiful and that she always stands at the ready to defend herself and them against each and every bigot who would threaten them because of who they are.

#ScribesAndMakers 30. Do birds ever feature in your work? Give an example.

They do! Especially in Edenia and Vaeternus. In the former, birds are seen all around, charmed by all the nature and flowers, and many shops actually put out food and plants to attract them and make them feel welcome.

Kitana, one of the MCs, has a fighting style and Breath (aka magic) manifestation connected to birds. Here's a snippet with her:

#WordWeavers 30. How do you keep track of important info related to your characters, world, etc.?

Scrivener for the win!

I have a folder for characters (this further divided into main, major and minor SCs, and antagonists), one for world-building (this one divided into each realm, and... a lot of stuff inside each ๐Ÿ˜…), and one for places.

She's so beautiful ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’ž

My guild in Where Winds Meet started a little virtual photography challenge in three parts, each having its own theme.

Here are my submissions for "cat," "spooky," and "sunset."

#ScribesAndMakers 20. Self-promotion day. Shame optional. Boost away!

World Without Love is a dark fantasy, slow-burn lesbian romance saga set in a post-apocalyptic world caused by the Goddess of Love, Aphroditeโ€”yes, as you can tell, it's inspired by Greek mythology!

You can get the first two books in a variety of stores, including Payhip: https://linktr.ee/NicoleHidalgoAuthor.

#PennedPossibilities 957 โ€” Does your MC have or wear a signature colour?

While these aren't the colours we meet her with (her colours have character development, too!), the white, gold, and purple palette becomes Ashrah's signature.

Here's a drawing of her plus two video game AUs showing her wearing that same palette :3
