Tess and Liam from Rising to the Occasion have loved other people but their first love was shared between them in their youth.

Both went into the world, grew, changed, experienced joy with other people, and ultimately chose to reunite as adults.

Today's random #Lovember #WritingPrompt for the #WriteSky #WritingCommunity:

Would your character(s) still fall for their first love(s)?
If it doesn't make sense to answer for romantic love, you can talk about some other sort of "first love".

Folks, it’s almost December.

USE. YOUR. BENEFITS.

Book a massage every day. Go to the dentist. Get your glasses. Talk to a therapist god knows you need to.

If you don’t use your benefits the capitalists are stealing from you.

USE YOUR BENEFITS.

Hi y'all I very prematurely closed my old gfm and I've started a new one. Things are quite dire and it's looking like I'm going to need to hire a lawyer which I can't afford. Your help would mean the world to me truly.

The challenges and impacts of cluster "headaches" can't be overstated.

They are brutal and will shake you to your core. The day that they stop will be beautiful.

I heard there was a Cohen song,

And all the Christians got it wrong,

But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?

‘Cause you see its about getting laid,

It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,

But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I need an actor who is:
1. Talented and with good comedic timing
2. Has experience with/is able to work with puppet characters seamlessly alongside human actors
3. Able to also *voice* a puppet character 👀
4. Is willing to play

Which narrows the list down to one person, in my mind.

#LateNightWrite Do you have any face claims or voice castings for your main characters in mind?

*SPOILERS*
No Strings Attached would best lend itself to a short series. It will obviously require some structural fires, which is its own undertaking, but the physical piece of the story I want to see brought to life is the morally flexible puppet character with a love of the flame.

I would like to write both for television and movies. What I've done so far has been on a small scale, primarily for others.

However, I think it would be good fun to write for a strategy or narrative-based game or a radio play. (Bernice Summerfield, I'm a'coming once I learn more!)

Hello there, #LateNightWrite! I'm Kate and I'm working on a WIP about folks finding safety, both physically and in each other, in spite of society falling apart. Learning to love as the world burns.

But! Tonight I'll be talking about the puppets and pyromania of (working title) No Strings Attached.
Happy Saturday and welcome to another #LateNightWrite! Let's start with Introductions, tell us about yourself and your WIP(s) in any way you like.

I miss Link too and want to see his account reinstated. The entire debacle is infuriating and unfair, to say the least.

That said, please stop using the old PFP that Link chose to change because it was created by an artist who is an accused rapist who has a history of harming women and femmes.

In Rising to the Occasion, Tess and Erin are both very affectionate with each other and their family, in addition to being warm with others.

Liam is very affectionate with Tess and open with his family but is more guarded with others.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

How does your character feel about physical touch?

Are they fans of a handshake, hug, pat on the back, etc?

Do they prefer to keep their distance?

Does it matter how close they are to the other person?

May have to consider making a pivot to watchmaking! Another gig just dried up, which is disappointing but it opens up room for something new. Right?

I am *so* damn tired.
I tell you what, if you or someone you know is looking to go into a skilled trade, consider watchmaking. I just dropped a watch off at Ben bridge and they’re scheduled 3 months out. “Everybody’s interested in watches now. Horology school students are getting job offers before they even graduate.”
