i’ve been writing stories since i could write at all, but i’ve never taken on completing a whole novel. i decided to make this writeblr to hopefully get the motivation to finish it! so it’ll be a lot of me rambling and crying as i try to… u know… complete it.

PLUTO by Martina Santi — A WIP Introduction + Opening Lines

WIP TAG | CHARACTERS

A collection of horror stories set in the mysterious town of Fell Island, told by various characters in a small diner on the edge of town. To scare, or to entertain—at its core, these stories serve as a distraction from the fact that once they get past the entrance, they can’t seem to get back out . . .

Recurring characters include the grumpy (but secretly soft) owner of Pluto’s Diner; a clever, teen runaway; a cheery waitress with a secret; and many more. Send an ask/reply/dm to be added to the taglist!

A RECIPE FOR CHICKEN BIRIYANI (AND ARYA PANDEY) // ANCHOR-POINT

A companion piece to Anchor-Point, and a loose character study of Arya. I was inspired by Jessie Loyer’s excellent poem pimîhkân, which uses the framing device of a Canadian indigenous dish to comment on the nuances of contemporary Canadian indigenous identity. I tried to do a similar thing with Arya and her fraught relationship to her body/sense of self, and while it’s nowhere near as good as Loyer’s poem I hope it’s still an enjoyable read!! fun fact: the non-italicised portions of the recipe are actually directions for how to make my mother’s version of chicken biriyani, and it produces quite a tasty final product! Feel free to give it a try if you’re ever craving some Indian food, but don’t add in the italicised sections, as they are likely to cause headaches, dizzy spells and murderous impulses 😛😳
