IMO the expectation for novels to get to the “action” within the first 3-5 chapters often comes at the cost of fully fledged character arcs. first acts should be allowed to simmer more❗️

Stop letting your characters "sigh" or "smile". Stop letting your characters moan and gasp, too. Don't even let them grip the bedsheets. Tie them up. Gag them. Stop letting them peak so easily. They have to earn it.

my most important writing tip is you gotta be horny for every part of it. not even sexually, but emotionally. you should be drooling for your own worldbuilding and the way you reveal the plot twist should have you trembling idk
the number of mouthwatering, filthy, "bad" queer rep books my peers are working on atm has me on my knees, like we're about to enter a messy queer renaissance that turns religious trauma into kink and "wholesome" rep into cannibalistic romance

I have been trying to process my feelings since first learning about all this. This is someone I considered a friend, confidante, peer, who I collaborated w/ on several occasions. Whose books I blurbed and enjoyed immensely. I cannot express how deeply this has impacted me--
Secrets are kept for a reason. Whether it be Taran mac Delbaith's truths or the cruel history of Morrígan Academy, perhaps exhuming centuries of buried blood is exactly what Saffron needs to protect the people he loves most.

“You will be made my caller of the shore,” the humming, growling voice spoke between their mouths, making Alba’s heart race. “My bride of the salted air, my brine witch."

Hello! Got a ton of new followers in the past week, and I wanted to thank all of you, and everyone else who reached out, for the gracious outpouring of support.
While I have been reluctant to comment on what happened directly I do want to use this moment to point out that (1/4)
when the angry merrow is forced to play nice so the wickie does what he asks, and through it learns that some things should be treated gently, then further realizes he doesn’t want to be just another act of cruelty in the wickie’s life 🧜♂️🌊💀 >>>>>>>
I really got tendonitis drawing all these gd leaves and berries back in january and never posted it??? there are some parts I wanna fix but it might make a nice print...

he’s a sunflower , and the most known thing about them is they point to the sun and when there’s no sun they point to eachother, yet he ended up looking at the moon. i love him so much
something quick for saffron's birthday today 2/28!! cylvan made sure to give him every luxury including a long night of being worshiped all over 🎉🎂💗💐🍓🍾🍰💋✨
forever reminding people worried about low-ratings on their books that such things add legitimacy to your work 🙏 it means you're reaching audiences who have no obligation to praise everything you do--and this is a good thing!!
Sharing creative work with a wide enough audience to find your ride or die fans necessitates exposing your work to people who deeply dislike it and, sometimes by extension, you! This is a feature, not a bug.
A fey lord who refused to dance.
A human tricked into replacing him.
