You should be concerned about the rate of authors leaving publishing. Especially from marginalized communities. This year I have seen so many authors just pack it up and go. And it's only getting worse.

I can't wait to talk more about Iapyx, he shows up in book 1 but doesn't recognize Icarus. We'll see more of him in book 2 and beyond 👀👀👀

Art by me, lyrics from Look Like Him by Tyler, The Creator which def isn't apt to his character arc or anything 👀

Andi is 🏳️‍⚧️ RE-DRAFTING DESECRATE 🏳️‍⚧️ @andromedaexists.bsky.social · 3d

ooo! i never get to talk about Iapyx!

Iapyx is Icarus' little brother & replacement in the Elysian Program. He's not as much a fighter as Icarus was, but very gifted in healing for ATLAS

He's also got lots of issues that come to a head when he meets Icarus 10 years after his father killed him.

a photo of a person looking into a mirror with green lighting that's been drawn over to show Iapyx looking into the mirror and seeing Icarus looking back at him with the lyrics "So do I look like him?" written on the wall.

a comparable program that's natively compatible with linux is manuskript, but i've already got so much in scrivener that it's gonna take a lot of convincing for me to switch over lol

Andi is 🏳️‍⚧️ RE-DRAFTING DESECRATE 🏳️‍⚧️ @andromedaexists.bsky.social · 5d

i think for me ghe difference is in organizational capabilities and not having to write in one long document or keep track of multiple docs. since each scene is a standalone document within the scrivener file, you only have to keep track of one thing on the backend!

Andi is 🏳️‍⚧️ RE-DRAFTING DESECRATE 🏳️‍⚧️ @andromedaexists.bsky.social · 5d

LibreOffice is a really good word substitute but I don't think I could use it for anything longer than a novella. Scrivener's more of an organizer with doc writing capabilities imo, this is my current scrivener set up for writing:
