#writeblrintro

not because you’re careless but because you already know what you meant

so your brain fills in the gaps without you even noticing

then someone else reads it and catches something you didn’t even see

what’s one part of your writing you don’t show people?

Not because it’s bad. But because it feels too personal, too real, or like it says more about you than you planned.

Every writer has that piece they hold back a little.

I want to hear about yours.

Hello there! I'm Cervus (he/they preferred), a pansexual writer who's from Brazil and has a big soft spot for romances.

I've been a writer for around 6 years now, but only in these past few months have I truly began to flesh my works out and write proper & consistent stories. I'd even dare say that's when I actually gained counsciousness! :'^)

However, I've never shared any of my works to anyone but my closest friends. There's many, many things I know I have to improve on, and I'm actively attempting to better myself at writing them.

Some of my favorite things to write about are historical pieces and detective stories. Though, there's also the dearest, occasional, fun little short stories between my characters that I write here and there. I also like dragons (and other mythological creatures) a very surprising amount. ^-^

I have quite a few works in the making, most of them being historical-inspired, angst-filled stories... I can't get enough of them-- guilty as charged!

Things that typically make me happy to see while reading are:

historical-themed stories.

dragons. quite obviously. '^^

girlbosses. though I do also like some soft characters here and there!

malewives & himbos.

Seeing characters be completely head over heels for their partners-- it's so sweet!

evil or morally ambiguous characters.

flower symbolism.

polyamorous relationships.

fantasy creatures-- but mainly centaurs, werewolves, and vampires.

lgbt+ characters, especially bi/pan folks.

romances.

latine culture representation.

a tiny little bit of soul-crushing, heart-wrenching drama.

I hope to have a fun time & meet lots of new people here! My social skills are a bit rusty, but I pride myself in being able to hold a conversation well, haha!!

Please shoot me a message if you want to talk. I'm always open to meeting new people and making new friends. I promise I won't bite! ^-^

Hi there,

My name is Sam (he/him) and I'm 31 years old. I used to float around Tumblr as one-man-drinking-games, but that blog is gone now. So here I am.

I've been working on my WIP for way too long and it'll be way too long before I'm done with it. But It'll be nice to be here and interact with other writers for support and inspiration.

I love fantasy in as many forms as I can consume it. There is a magic in reading and writing that I cannot find anywhere else, and so magic is where my heart is set.

I used to write prose and poetry, so I guess I'll be doing some more of that also.

In the time since I started my main WIP. I welcomed two children into the world, and quit drinking forever along the way. My progress is slow for those reasons. But please reach out to me, ask me questions about my world because I love it so much and I cannot leave this story untold.

Until then,

Hi everybody! I’ve been lurking on Writeblr for ages but, since I just finished school, I finally have time and the spoons to make my writeblr introduction! I’ve already reblogged a lot of reference, advice, resources, and inspiration posts on this blog, both for my own use and for anyone with similar interests, but now I’m going to post my own writing as well. 

I’m a queer, poc writer and artist working out of North America. My writing style tends toward weird fiction and fantasy, which means that I read and write a lot of horror, fantasy, urban fantasy, and speculative pieces. I’m most comfortable with short fictions (the shorter the better!) but am dipping my toes into long-form fiction with several novel projects. I also recently fell in love with writing screenplays, so that may rear its head sporadically here as well. I also run a short poetry insta (@un.tethered.dreams) and have plans for several blogging projects as well (updates to come)! 

Beyond creative fiction, I am also fascinated with the craft of writing, what it takes, why some things work and some don’t, etc. I spent some years going to uni for neuroscience in a different life so science, particularly biology, is an ongoing interest. I also draw traditional art and am learning digital art, so you might see some of that on this blog as well. (Can you tell that I have a problem with overcommitment yet?)

My current projects/priorities include:

The Walls Have Ears and Thorns (Working Title)

Genre: Fantasy

Length: Novel (series?)

Stage: Worldbuilding/First Draft

Set in the world of Chinese Wuxia novels with themes and elements from both Chinese history and Western high fantasy, The Walls Have Ears and Thorns follows Yinning (隐宁), our asexual and non-binary protagonist, as they struggle to reconcile past sins, political intrigue, and the possibility that, despite everything, they are deserving of love.

Translation/retellings of Chinese history/myth/folklore (taking suggestions for a better title)

Genre: non-fiction

Length: undetermined, one-shots

Stage: planning/testing

Translations and retellings of stories from ancient Chinese history. These will come out of both Chinese history/reference books and from my own childhood. I'm currently gauging interest in the project and planning how it will work with Patreon and/or Ko fi (because I am currently unemployed and want to build toward self-employment in the creative field). More info here. First sample retelling here. Second retelling here. More details to come.

Herbiary Tarot

Genre: fantasy, reference

Length: Book + card deck

Stage: research

Almost done my research of tarot cards and their interpretations based on the decks I have and reference books. The vision for the final project will be a series of linked drabbles related to each card that lead the reader on an exploration of an imagined realm masquerading as the mundane, rather like how bestiaries look to us now. I’m still undecided whether the drabbles will segue into a plotted story told in snapshots. Next step is deciding whether the deck will be high fantasy or urban fantasy.

Trouble (Working Title)

Genre: Urban Fantasy

Length: Novel (series?)

Stage: Worldbuilding/First Draft

When her aunt Cynthia disappears, leaving only a mysterious voice-mail message, Selena must abandon her life as a university student and bookstore clerk and embrace her heritage as one of the Morriganna, ancient prophets of war and doom, in order to stay alive and save her family. Her first task: decide if she can trust the young man who walked into her bookstore, the latest heir and black sheep to a family of Morriganna hunters.

Daily Flash Fiction

Genre: flash fiction, micro fiction

Length: self-contained

Starting next week, I’ll be committing to writing six pieces of flash fiction a week (one per day plus a rest day). The goal is to get into the rhythm of writing regularly. I’ll be posting these works on my blog and cross-posting here as well. For inspiration, I’ll be working my way through Wikipedia’s list of phobias.

writeblr introduction

hi there! I’m Chiara and I’m starting this writeblr to try and get back into writing as well as to put my thoughts about stories and rp’s somewhere!

about me

🍃 24 years old

🍃 she/her

🍃 biology major in my last year of my bachelor’s degree

🍃 I’ve been writing a lot when I was a teenager and kind of stopped after that, only writing the occasional fanfiction. I’ve been rping again for a while now and that has kind of refreshed my motivation to write, so who knows, maybe I’ll actually manage to start writing again, or work on the comic I’ve been planning for a while now. 

about this blog - what I’ll post about:

🍃 screaming about my oc’s

🍃 ideas for stories/rp’s/comics

🍃 probably some art/sketches of my oc’s/comics

🍃 lgbtqa+ / diverse content

if you’re a writeblr please feel free to like/reblog so i can follow you!

Hey y'all!

So I've been using this account for about a year now, mostly to post or reblog writing things, but I've never made an official introduction...

So here we are! My name is Annie *waves*, but I write under the pen name Elle Winters. Currently I'm tackling several projects. My main wip is a historical fiction spy thriller set in Berlin during WWII, and on the side I've been working on a YA fantasy and a few short stories. I hope to compile said short stories into a collection, eventually... but we'll see how it goes ;)

Since these are still works in progress, I'll just refer to them by initials instead of their titles.

RNF is my spy thriller. My main characters are Hannah Rössner, Kurt Lehmann, and Nina Spiegel (and they all drive me insane). I'm about halfway through and looking to finish it up (hopefully) by the end of the year! Here's my synopsis:

--

In 1939, all she wanted to do was escape Berlin with her family. But when the rise of Nazism cuts all remaining ties with the safety of the world outside, Hannah Rössner finds herself seeking out the most unlikely allies: a wealthy—if eccentric—baroness and her government-employed nephew.

Armed with little more than sheet music and spite, Hannah’s goal transforms into something far more desperate, far more dangerous. A goal that will drive her to risk anything and everything.

Survive.

--

If you ever see me complaining about my wip, it’s 157% likely that it’s because I wish Hannah were real so I could punch her in the face. (I swear, I have no control over this story at all. She is the captain now)

I’ve tagged a few writeblrs I follow for help and inspiration, and also because they’re just flipping amazing. Thanks to @heywriters, @the960writers, @bookishdiplodocus, @brynwrites, @she-who-fights-and-writes, @writing-prompt-s, @thatwritergirlsblog, @bucketsiler/ @theliteraryarchitect, @the-modern-typewriter, @michaelbjorkwrites, @neil-gaiman, @chocolategate, and the hundreds (if not thousands) of other writeblrs out there. You all are incredible and such a source of inspiration as I’m starting out on this writing adventure :)

Anyway! I'd love to get more involved in the writeblr community, so if you're a writeblr let me know and I'll follow your page!

May the odds be ever in your favor, fellow writers!
