PB update: after many pages of notes in longhand, backstory, snippets of dialog, lists of possible illos, and lots of staring into space, the story is finally coming together. Time to move on to a first draft . . . where it will all fall apart again, lol. #process #amwriting #picturebook #kidlit

He snatched her wrist, stopping her hand in its tracks. “You think I saved you for the rest of my three months?”

#QueerPrompts Day 2: obscure fact about your MC

#FantasyIndiesMaytober Day 16: bad decisions in WIP
Braelyn worries if she's making bad decisions a lot. It'll get worse further in the series 😅 her friends try to reassure her that she can't make the right decision every time, but y'know.

#FantasyIndiesMaytober Day 2: introduce your villain(s)
It'd take too long to introduce all the villains. I'll stick with Velimiar, the second-born son of the demon king Seithenin, and Mathius's twin brother. He is desperate for his father's approval and hates Braelyn immensely.

inventingrealityediting.comAcademicSky, a quick poll: when you're writing about historical people, do you use first names or last names? I keep running face-first into the "Jane Smith Jones Robinson" multiple-married-surname problem, and wondering if it's too informal to just say "Jane." #amwriting

Was writing a scene where someone is talking to a Babbage Engine and getting the Engine’s dialogue from ELIZA, but then I decided that even that was too much AI content, so just wrote something ELIZA-like.
