Is it possible that I am teaching myself this #ragtime song because I wrote a #scifi story about an immortal who loves him some Scott Joplin? Yes, yes it is. Hope you enjoy the first third of Maple Leaf Rag. #piano #scifibooks #debutnovel #hopepunk #writing #writingcommunity #music #nanowrimo
Wow, I played MUDs for years! Arcadia was the server I loved. Met lots of nice folks there. What's the setting for yours?

Also, you're up early! 😁 Going to bed now so I can get a little sleep before the write-in! Hope you enjoy your Saturday morning!

Love the website! Very professional. Subscribed to the newsletter! Thinking of hopping on the Discord.

Lounge pianist, hmm? πŸ’– 🎹

And wondering, with the text-based games, did you ever happen to play MUDs?

But now I really want to know what the cargo is πŸ‘€

Welcome to #WIPSnips! 😊 πŸ’– πŸ”₯

That's absolutely my feelings about it too! (Which was funny because some of my beta readers agreed, and others were seriously freaked out about the idea of being around telepaths!) I've never really had anything to hide though.

Do you have anything finished with telepaths that you'd want to share?

Hello, there, Sam! Nice to see you back! (Saw you took another brief break; good to do that when needed!) Yes, finally gave AwesomeCharacters a try and dove deep into introspection 😁
Glad you like Damien; he's my favorite too 😊 Now to get it published...
Feel free to come visit warm Colorado! 😁

πŸ’– πŸ”₯ πŸ’– πŸ”₯ Amazing!

When I was a kid, we had a family friend who was an opera singer. We got her to sing at my mom's 40th birthday party. I'll never forget it. Such incredible power.

I did choir in middle school, and, um, I can butcher every Beatles song! 😁

Bravo to you! πŸ”₯
February 14, 2026 at 3:27 AM
Right there with you. I'm still trying to finish editing for my first book...
February 14, 2026 at 3:22 AM
To be honest, if you hadn't said it here, I might not have noticed! The onion is most likely for me because I've grown those for years. Because they thrive on drought and neglect 😁
February 14, 2026 at 3:22 AM
Sounds like our stories have some things in common but I can't share because of [spoilers]! Oh boy. But we should try to stay in touch!

I found it very interesting trying to write characters who are telepathic, so great to get a different view of it here!

But now I need to know what he did πŸ‘€

So timely for Valentines day! πŸ’– πŸ”₯

Just looked her up on Spotify and, wow, you must have quite the voice! That's like nearly opera singer level! Very fun and lively music. πŸ’–πŸ˜Š πŸ’– πŸ”₯

I come from a family of software engineers, so I get it! I'm a full time scientist myself. Wish you all the best in making writing for media become your primary income source - sounds like a great goal. πŸ’– πŸ”₯ (I secretly dream of being a bestselling scifi author, but it'll take much time!)
February 14, 2026 at 2:28 AM
Just listened to Nils on Spotify - very nice! Love the soft classic style piano with some electronic. Very calming. (When I was in high school, I used to love techno, which I'm pretty sure is just OG EDM 🀣 so I appreciate electronica in general!)
Nothing wrong with a steady day job!...
February 14, 2026 at 2:28 AM
Well, I started lessons at 8, but had exposure before that b/c mom was a piano teacher. Honestly, I wish I'd waited b/c I couldn't do the octaves, & I remember wondering if I'd ever be able to, which felt demotivating. Made me feel like lots of classics may be forever beyond me. But they're not!
February 14, 2026 at 2:17 AM
Uh oh. What body? πŸ‘€
February 14, 2026 at 12:50 AM
For your self-insert characters, do you ever find yourself giving them your own problems so you can help them figure out how to solve/fix them?
February 14, 2026 at 12:28 AM
Hah, yes, I see them 😁
February 14, 2026 at 12:05 AM
Oooo, how does the telepathy work in your story?
February 13, 2026 at 11:03 PM
Yay, I did it right! 😁 🀣
February 13, 2026 at 10:53 PM
Yes, certainly... not bringing... trouble πŸ‘€
February 13, 2026 at 10:00 PM
I mean, the aliens are the infamous Atlanteans. Of the lost city of Atlantis. They've been here before.
... But doing what exactly? πŸ‘€
... And why did Atlantis fall? πŸ‘€

... And when Lexi finds out, will they remain loyal and dedicated to helping Athena?

Damien's helping too. But he has his reasons.
