My power went out an hour or so ago. I'm about ready to go nuts. I have a chair lift and it keeps insessantly beeping because there's obviously no power. I KNOW, CHAIR. I KNOW. JUST CALM DOWN. 🤬

#TipsyTales 4 — What’s your SC’s favorite drink?
Junk loves both his beer and grunk, which is a homemade liquor, something skin to moonshine. It would be a toss up between either of those two things, I'd say.

I've had such a wildly long day. I'm headed off to bed now that I've done my nightly prompt for you guys. Either sleep well if it's nighttime or have a good day if it's daytime where you are. I'll get to my replies tomorrow. There are so many things to respond too, so that'll be fun. Heh.

I really wish Mastodon would make the character limit for alt-text a bit longer. It really upsets me when I'm posting a screenshot from my story and I can't even fit the whole text, so I just have to say that it's an excerpt from a story of mine. Add some more character space, please, I beg you.

@npub1k7w…emzr You deserve all the happiness! Enjoy it. 💚

2024-08-06 04:29:30

Sorry I haven't been around much, only for posting prompts for my hashtag. I took some time away for a bit of a mental reset. I don't like being called "abled" in subtoots by a fellow author when I'm clearly disabled (and have explained that), and it really bothered me. Mistakes happen and that's that. That's life, man. It's no big deal, and it's really not that deep.
Sometimes you just need some time away from social media, you know? It's good for the mind and soul, I guess.

@npub1acq…0tnv Funny because as I was reading this, I am, in fact, drinking chai tea. It's always so comforting, isn't it? I spent some time away, just need a reset and some time to relax. People piss me off, sometimes.

So, fun fact for the #PennedPossibilities community, I've spent the last few days coming up with a ton of new questions for the future. There will be some interesting prompts coming. There's random little things as well, maybe some things you haven't thought about for your characters, and that's always fun to write. I find it's helpful, sometimes. The little details can be just as important. 💜
Happy writing!

2024-08-03 14:57:23

If someone makes an honest mistake (because they're half asleep and miss part of a toot) and sincerely apologize for it, then you should accept it. Don't subtoot about them. I'm definitely not abled. I'm ALSO disabled, but alrighty. Moving on. Sometimes you have to soft-block for your own piece of mind.

#WordWeavers 7.31 — Which of your characters would be the last survivor in a horror movie?
Either Ethan or Lachlainn would be the final one left standing. I can't decide which of them it would be. They're warriors, true to who they are, and they fight on, regardless of a tough situation or who's gone around them. They've lost friends and lovers in the past during wartime.

#WordWeavers 7.30 — Which of your characters would die first in a horror movie?
Oof. Caorall (pronounced Coo-rull) would die first, I reckon. He's a soft-hearted man. Physical battles aren't his strong suit.

#WordWeavers 7.29 — Are your MCs conflicted with their religious beliefs?
This series is a #romantasy one. In these fantasy stories, while there might a few different Pagan religions, our MCs (Lachlainn and Elspeth) never question their religious beliefs. Their faith in humanity, however, is constantly tested. Religion, not so much.

#WordWeavers 7.26 — If your antagonist and MC had to civilly eat together, who would find it harder?
Ooh, this is a tough question for me. I'm not entirely sure who would be at the other's neck first with a butter knife or fork. It would all depend on who opened their mouth to speak first, really. They, being whoever spoke, would no doubt be the victim in this circumstance.

Drinking is a natural thing in this universe. Both Caorall and Ethan do drink, as well as make their own whisky and ale at home.

I think Lachlainn would absolutely adore anything green or black. Either black Pansies or Dahlias, or green Mediterranean Spurges, Dianthus, or Carnations. I can totally imagine any of them in a vase in his home. They're his favorite colors.
