Wisteria's Garden

I'm Wisteria (They/he), or Wist for short! I'm a neurodivergent 21-year-old Political Science major whose main passion is art. I write everything from poems to short stories to novels. I love both nature and architecture photography. I largely consider myself a jack of all trades type, dabbling in whatever makes my queer little heart happy. I also love D&D, urban fantasy, queer romance, astronomy, and whimsy~ On this blog, you can expect to see posts related to mental health, writing, fantasy, romance, and any other interests on my mind that day. Feel free to send in asks related to my WIPs, politics, or anything whimsical and fun! @theheartofsanlobato is my dedicated WIP blog!

The gays! The story takes place in a universe where accidental time travel was commonplace because of rifts and holes in the space time continuum.

There are thirty-one of them so I’m not going to show you all of them because that’s honestly just a lot but here’s the graphic for wisteria!

The Something about Monsters narrator is a celestial, who takes on the role of observer of the Universe and knows absolutely everything. Well, absolutely everything except anything to do with death. They’re a bit of a tsundere (constantly complaining about humanity but then showing unavoidable fondness for us) and are pathetically pining over the celestial Death (who probably has the coolest design out of all of the Celestials in my head.)

Haha yeah! The Revolutionaries was the series I always thought I’d be known for. I worked on it all of high school and a bit into my first year of college. It’s a side state of affairs, really. I took on way too much outside influence for the story and it ended up just not working how I wanted it to no matter how many times I tried. I still have so many draft attempts, world building stuff, and character information. A lot of it doesn’t hold up today though because I just wasn’t that good and did not do the groundwork required for the type of story I was writing.

All listed? Okay!

The Werewolf’s Steeple: Cash is heavily based on the character Jim from Our Flag Means Death. He’s Puerto Rican because of Vico Ortiz.

Something about Monsters: The first third-person POV story I wrote. It barely counted because the Narrator was a character and had a lot of opinions.

The Revolutionaries: This was supposed to be my magnum opus until The Heart of San Lobato and the Werewolf’s Steeple.

Lost to Time and Out of Place: The first mlm story I ever wrote. My roots <3

All the Things that Started with the Letter Maybe: I made all the graphics for it myself in Canva.

Rules: Share the names of all of the WIPs in your WIP folder. Those who find any of them interesting can send an ask about them based on the name alone! I don't have as many as I've seen some writers around have, but here are mine:

You can ask questions about the synopsis, the characters, or you can ask for lines!

Across any of your stories, what's the piece of worldbuilding you're most proud of?

Happy very belated Worldbuilder Wednesday!!

That's an incredibly tough question to answer because, even though I really only write urban fantasy, I take great pride in integrating fantasy into the real world. I suppose the piece of worldbuilding I'm the most proud of right now would be the vampire lore for my WIP, The Heart of San Lobato. Full explanation under the cut for those who are interested!
