Wow! So many amazing creative treats are available to bid for as part of the 'Creatives 4 Sudan' auction. And the money raised will be used to help people escaping the terrible situation in El-Fasher. See app.galabid.com/creatives4su...
Thanks to @raafaye.bsky.social for the design.

It's tough to narrow it down to just 3. Let's see...

Historical romance
Fantasy romance
Gothic romance

I'm sensing a pattern lol.

Caribbean writer's scrapbook

10. Free Friday

Going to share my first ever mood board. I'm not great with technology but I had fun making it so yay.

My WIP is a Caribbean inspired & Viking/Arctic inspired fantasy romance. The couple follows an enemies to arranged marriage love story. #FantasyIndiesJanuary #WritingCommunity

I use notebooks & Word.

I was wondering out loud why I do both & Mr. Fraser was like, 'you grew up before computers were standard but you were a teen when the internet came out - that's why you do both.' It's his nice way of saying we're old 😅

Wld love to learn abt all the apps writers use

In light of new anti-trans policies from Meta, divesting trans publishing from centralized Big Tech platforms is more pressing than ever. 💻🏳️‍⚧️ In this article, I’ve laid out what a post-social media trans lit landscape might look like.

Trans authors, link your newsletters so peeps can find them! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

8. WIP fancast

For my romantasy WIP I was thinking that Lovie Simone looks like the mystical, magical princess and Leo Suter looks like the shape-shifting dragon king.

Going to use some inspiration from that last reskeet & do a thread abt names in the world I'm creating.

For my fantasy island culture, ppl's names are European inspired which is similar to names in the Caribbean. This is the case for real life Caribbean ppl b/c of colonialism. #worldbuilding

What's in a name, but WHY is a name?

Why did you pick the names you did for your characters (or even places)? Is there a particular meaning to each name, a backstory, for them or yourself?

I'll 🧵 mine throughout the morning, I need coffee and a keyboard.

I haven't published anything yet, but I want to finally write all the Caribbean inspired things I've been too scared to write.

Right now I'm worldbuilding and plotting a Caribbean inspired fantasy romance/romantasy. I think it's going to be a winter throne vs. summer throne type thing. #SFFChat

Ok going to introduce myself. I spent years writing what I'm "supposed" to write. However, I always wanted to put a Caribbean spin on things so I decided to finally go for it! Hoping to use social media to focus on:

✍🏿 My writing journey
✒️ Connecting w/ the writing community
🌴 Caribbean history

I needed this ❤️

Still in the worldbuilding phase (I swear I'm not procrastinating lol) so will try to finish some basic character backstory of the new romantasy project. *fingers crossed*

I don't like change, but even I have decided to slowly leave The App Formerly Known as Twitter.
