#Critterary In The Night Garden series, everything about the Supernatural world stems from the same magic. The world isn't aware of this. Werewolves can develop magical powers if their bloodline was susceptible to that type of magic, vampires can join packs, witches are long-lived... etc. (1/2)
Day 12
Time to pull out the lasagna, it's Free Monday!!
Fun, weirdness, whatever creature-adjacent stuff that might be on your mind today, come share!!

#JanuaryWorldbuilders Oh, so much. Inequality and near extermination of a species, forced labor of certain supernaturals, sanctioned black markets via the power structure ("We'll turn a blind eye if we get a share" vibes), and a hidden in plain sight society that leaves people stranded.
Howdy, #JanuaryWorldbuilders! What's plaguing your fictional world's society? (Remember, just pick one or use the MC's society if you have several). Is there classism? Racism? Misogyny? Queerphobia? Is the government run by greedy tyrants? Or are things going relatively okay right now?

The World of Shadows tends to be very formal with each other. They bow and have titles, as well as work through treaties and ordinances. Think regency era vibes. This breaks down a bit in The Night Garden, because they're trying to change it.

#JanuaryWorldbuilders! Tell me more about your fictional society. What are some gestures or actions that are considered good etiquette? If you're writing about non-Earth societies, do they have any such actions/gestures that we don't use? Alternatively, do they have *rude* gestures?

#LoreOutLoud My main series has two ace-spectrum nonbinary leads (Acanthus is gray ace, Cypress is demisexual). Nearly all of my main characters are queer in some way. I've purposefully written people who are either immortal or older than 25 to show there's life later on and it's possible.

Lately I've been experimenting with structure. I love experimenting with voicey elements, too, and I'd like to play around a bit more with that, especially with surreal elements in horror.

#JanuaryWorldbuilders gender roles don't really apply here, at all.
Good day, #JanuaryWorldbuilders. This week I'm asking q's about the fictional societies in our fantasy/sci-fi worlds. If you write about many societies, pick one you think has an interesting answer, or the MC's society. How are gender roles handled in this world?

#LoreOutLoud It's a lighter hurt/comfort yearning set during Christmas, so it's a wooden cabin in low firelight with tinsel, holly, and boughs strewn across the walls. Cozy furnishings, and a great big fluffy bed, with papers and maps and a pirate coat strewn across the chair at the desk.

#JanuaryWorldbuilders There are two MCs in The Night Garden series - Lemon Balm is published, the rest of the series is not (yet ;) ). Acanthus is a vampire, so they're bottom-of-the-barrel as far as the "polite society" is concerned, but they're also the founder of the Night Garden, so they - 1/3
#JanuaryWorldbuilders, tell me about your MC's (or another important character if you don't do MCs) role in society. Are they upper or lower class? What job/tasks do they do as part of this society? Are they even a member of a society?

#JanuaryWorldbuilders There aren't really social classes in The Night Garden, so much as caste systems based on what faction of supernatural you are. Because the wolves have controlled the government for so long, vampires are kind of the scum of society. Witches are the middle of the road, (1/2)
Welcome to the second week of #JanuaryWorldbuilders! The theme of this one is SOCIETY. Again, relatively broad for now. We'll delve into more weeds later in the year. Today's Q: Talk about social classes. How are they handled? Do they have hierarchies? Nobles and commoners? Or is it classless?

#HorrorWritersChat It again is dependent on the character, for me. A lot of my characters are either starting out as supernatural, but others are transitioning from human to supernatural. The transformation comes with physical changes that are pretty obvious.
You spring out of your den, gliding between trees. You follow the winged figures. Your kin. Your home.
Your past has left its icy trails behind.
Becoming a new self also often includes a physical transformation. Do your characters change physically? In what way?
