RKMORIYAMA's WRITEBLR INTRODUCTION
An introduction to me, my writing, and a select few of my projects
Hi, Hello! My name's Alex. My pronouns are she/her or they/them; it doesn't really matter to me. I am in my early 30s. I have a long history of writing and coming up with stories, and a large part of my youth was spent writing short stories or roleplaying with online friends. My stories fall into the categories of fantasy, sci-fi, horror, and thriller, and most, if not all, of my stories contain something supernatural.
MY WORKS IN PROGRESS
a selection of projects I am working on, these are the ones I'm focusing on currently.
IN THE DARKENED SKY dark fantasy | english
In In the Darkened Sky, we follow Senka, a daughter of none, raised in an isolated valley by Sylvain Astavau, a retired captain of the King's Army, and later also the dragon Nithe, who hatched while in their possession. But their idyllic, slow life is promptly interrupted by the arrival of soldiers and the message they carry. Sylvain Astavau has been called back to serve, and Akresia is going to war.Â
Senka and Nithe are thrust into a structured, military life, forced to follow rules they don't always agree with, and are tossed into a conflict they have no experience with.
VARGABLOT contemporary, swedish folklore | swedish
In Vargavik, the most important tradition isn't Easter, Midsummer, or even Christmas; it's Vargablotet. Mid-September each year, shortly after the start of the school year, the town of Vargavik assembles in a field just outside of town to offer food or riches in a fire to appease the folkloric creatures roaming about in the ancient forest around Vargavik. But when staff and students of private school BergenstrĂĽhle start going missing and the police can find no clues, it becomes clear that this year, Vargablotet didn't work.
Four local teens take to investigating the disappearances themselves when the police fumble for a reasonable solution and find a still-operating secret society that's planning for a second Vargablot, one made with human sacrifices.
UR ASKANS MINNEN contemporary magical realism | swedish
Signe's gap year is coming to an end, and she and her friends have nothing planned for their last summer before starting university. Something that doesn't sit well with Signe. A surprise phone call from Signe's uncle Magnus opens up an opportunity for the girls to work with horses all summer long. How could three horse-interested girls say no to that? Come June, they arrive in the deep forests of the middle of Sweden and the manor Angermanns gĂĽrd. Here, they will help out during the summer's riding camps and tour riding. However, as they settle into a comfortable routine, strange things start happening on the manor grounds. Come July, the past walks the manor grounds again, reliving their last summer one more time.
... and a dozen more exist that have been put on hold for the time being.
