This is such vile shit. If they're doing this shit to famous white people, you know they're doing 1000x worse to Palestinians. (Which Thunberg herself points out, as well.)

Totally. Sometimes if I find a good one but it's not 100% a fit, I alter descriptions a bit to make it work. And strategic cropping goes a long way lol.

The neverending debate about starting a new WIP or sticking with your current ones.
Both my current wips are a bit more plot heavy, so maybe one that's more just vibes wouldn't hurt to have on the table?
But also maybe I should actually finish something first??

My MC is Noemi (Noe for short). She grew up in the poorer district of the Abyss and became a seamstress' apprentice, eventually catching the eye of the king. Now she wants to earn being queen to be his equal but people keep getting in her way!
Here's a sketch I did of her #lgbtqwriteathon

A sketch of a round-faced woman with dual braids. She has big eyes and full lips and looks somewhat tired.

I have a good idea of what I want, but it depends on what stock photos I can find (I do my own covers), sometimes that changes my vision haha

So there's a font family called Lucida... But for the longest time I thought it was Lucinda.... I only realize now the error of my ways.

FINISHED LE MORTE D'ARTHUR 💪 I started it roughly a year ago, so considering my usual pace, this is pretty good 😅 Now, to continue reading The Once and Future King to keep the Arthurian party going 💙📚

I read more books with similar content to get a feel for how other writers approach it. I don't tend to write anything too heavy, though.

The people in the surface tribes and settlements are indigenous to the area. The people of the Abyss are descendants of those people. There was a period of travel and trade when the weather was better in ancient times, so they have some outside forces in their culture like (cont) #queerprompts

Sybel is waiting for her in the corridor, dressed similarly to the first time Noe saw her. Her armour is different, less weathered and newer, but the style is similar. #lgbtqwriteathon
