The poet exists in fragments, so does the poetry.
Shout-out to characters who don't plan to survive their stories! Heroes who think they can only atone for their failures through sacrifice, villains who don't think they deserve to live in the world they're trying to create. Gimme that passive suicidality baby, mm-mm, delicious.

Deep Water Prompt #3540
Walking through the graveyard at night, an angel climbs off its plinth to follow me. "The Chained One is restless," it whispers, as a second jogs up carrying my sword, like I could be out there for any other reason.
Text: Her familiar is a terrifying crane, towering over the heads of all who enter the tea house, its beak stained red with the blood of the unworthy.
(stumbling out of the document covered in blood) ok i wrote 100 words

helloooo it's been a hot minute. here are some updates if you're interested. it's long. i yap. enjoy :P
why've i been gone for...~a month? well, i had back injury stuff (mostly recovered now but still going to chiro), work headaches (UGH), and a sudden surge of events to plan/attend. also, i was grappling with the constant barrage of news about how many evil things are being done to our world (THE FOOD! the AIR! the WEATHER!!!!!).
thus, i've decided that kicking my tiktok habit was not enough, i need to drop IG reels too (which unfortunately replaced tiktok almost immediately). scrolling through it has proved really bad for my anxiety (yay heart palpitations) and fight against despair (there is so much evil and we are not shown enough of the good). also i was getting genuinely scarred by unexpected videos of murder, catastrophes, terrible accidents, etc. so no more of that!
it's a hard addiction to beat and being bored might feel painful but things that hurt are not always bad and also, it will pass. i have to retrain my brain to find joy and interest in things that are not shortform content, and it will take some time, and that is a-ok.
semi-related to this, i'm back into photography! i've forgotten a lot and never took the time to get to know the camera i replaced my old one with (honestly i regret replacing it---but i was depressed and impulsive and went through a phase of purging stuff). i would love to get my photography business up and running again. and if i can...perhaps that can be my main source of income? crazy to say so in a world poisoned by genAI, i know, but whatever.
also! my literary society is trucking along in a delightful direction! and i'm gonna help my mom with running her own podcast! (i've tabled my podcast idea and feel very good about it). writing has....not really been happening. but i've hauled myself back onto the previously on-fire wagon that is writing, and i'm tip-tapping away painfully slowly. it's fine, it is what it is. (<- totally not feeling fine about this at all but what else is new)
anyway! i hope y'all are good!
like the betrayal’s always going to be worse if they cared about you and it didn’t matter. someone discards you because they didn’t give a shit, then you can be angry about that, you can feel vindicated in that, you can get over it. but if they can look you in the eyes and say “I love you. I would make the same choice again.” You will never sleep peacefully again, is all.
“I thought they cared about me, but they were lying this whole time.” <- tired. boring. removes all the nuance of this relationship to make it easier to move on from.
“I thought they cared about me, and I was right, and every minute they were there for me, every time they said they were proud, every laugh we shared leaning against each other bruised and breathless, all of it was real. and they still left me behind. They could put their love aside. I couldn’t.” <- insane. will never leave you alone. reminds you that even the worst people are still people and can still care about even the ones they hurt the most and that undoes neither the harm nor the love.

WIP Intro: The Hunter, the Myth and the Cure
Procrastinating on chapter 3 revisions and tag games by making an intro for this WIP lol
Tales from Valaria Masterpost
WIP Masterpost
~~~~~
Title: The Hunter, the Myth and the Cure
Genre: High fantasy, dark fantasy, noir, gunpowder fantasy
Audience: YA-Adult (TV-14+)
Tags: #thtmatc #the hunter the myth and the cure #draven cozenson #octavian de silv #reese takari
Stage of the Writing Process: Revisions
Synopsis:
Valaria is in turmoil. An outbreak of lycanthropy has swept across the planet, halting trade and sending everyone into panic. The elves have closed their borders, the Draigo have barricaded themselves into their strongholds, and it is left to the humans to quell the plague before the infected kill or spread the disease to the entire population.
Ten years after the outbreak, the plague is somewhat handled. Draven Cozenson is an infamous lycanthrope hunter, someone tasked with tracking down werewolves and putting them down before they can infect others. While on a job in the vast forest known as the Fells, he discovers a strange elf trapped beneath a frozen lake.
Octavian de Silv has unknowingly been imprisoned for a decade, held in a magical stasis the likes of which are unheard of. Still reeling from events that concluded a decade before, he is forced to get his bearings in a world vastly different than he remembers.
Reese Takari is trapped. Not just by the walls of the place where she was taken, but also by the fear of what would happen to her father if she takes any opportunity to escape. And now she's trapped by her value as a subject for unknown experiments.
The search for an antidote or a vaccine against the outbreak is ongoing. Researchers are desperate, and ethics have long been tossed out the window. Magicians roam freely, no longer afraid of Draigo agents hunting them down for wrongdoing. Perhaps it will take a new---or rather, old---perspective to turn the tide. Or, more likely, perhaps not.

💘? :)?
oh hey its been a hot minute! how're you?
💘: give us a huge spoiler
ohhhh i'm so so tempted to be very evil. hm. how evil though? and for which wip?!?! (you will not believe how long i sat here, being stumped about which spoiler to give and how) In Oracle, Sage falls into a book and changes the plot by falling in love and saving someone meant to die. This is not the spoiler. The spoiler is that he never fell into a book in the first place.
ask me about my wips!
hey bebe! 💙 and 💔?
💔 did this one here!
💙 how has the idea changed between starting it and where it is now? sorta mentioned in a different post, but in more detail, it started out as a standalone idea. i'd never finished a first draft of anything (and still haven't lmao) because my brain always gets carried way and turns things into a series and it all just becomes a lot. so i thought, i'll try working on just one simple story and see if i can finish it. so, of course it turned into a series and i have yet to finish anything lol.
it started out with this idea: instead of true love's kiss or a vow of true love breaking a curse, the fmc makes a vow of love to herself and that's what breaks it. that's still very much the core of the story! but it's also about self love, accepting your past mistakes, letting down some walls and allowing your friends help you, and overcoming what other people think of you and accepting that your true self is your real power.
in terms of the whole series, there are four kingdoms and four types of elemental magic, so ideally, i'll do one book that focuses on a kingdom and a magic. (i still have a lot of planning to do here, so this could change quite a bit.) and then because of *the night veil* being part of the curse in the first book, there will be some kind of *veil* that must be torn down in the other books too.
