Hello dear hearts,
I almost forgot to write today’s post.
This week has been a Lot, y’all. My sister had her surgery last Monday, the recovery is not going as planned. So I’m making an emergency trip to stay with her starting tomorrow for a little over a week as my youngest nibling also has surgery coming up on this Tuesday. It’s a Lot.
That’s not even including the Mercury RX rollercoaster, Michigan family happenings, health things, medication things, and creative things I’ve also been going through/am still going through/will continue to go through.
Feeling ready for therapy this week.
Introducing These Stubborn Hearts
A contemporary fantasy multi-chapter flash fiction series. Each chapter will be posted on my blog each Friday and will be 100 words. The chapter will be created around three random words from The Prediction - a flash fiction challenge group.
The fun thing about this series is I literally have no idea where it’s going. I don’t really know until I sit down to write it. So far I have introduced two main characters.
Taura, the eldest child who feel duty-bound to meet with her distant dead grandmother’s attorney to talk about wills. And Lysander “Les” Stacey, an easily annoyed, grumpy attorney who has an interesting job beyond just handling wills. I already love them both.
You can catch up here to read Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 on my blog.
Dark Academia Novella Updates
I’m getting mildly frustrated with this project, if I’m being honest. I haven’t worked on it in a while and the first story is not what I originally wanted. As much as I feel like I failed already, I’m going to save what I have, not delete, but start from scratch. Re-meet my characters and see what the hell is going on.
Also tempted to work on world building more and get an idea of where they are so that will help spark something. In the meantime, I think I’m going to dig up some classics to see what jumps out at me for more inspiration.
Latest Collage
And as if I don’t have enough on my creative plate, this collage makes me want to write a sapphic reaper romance.
Until next time,
