#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 18 If I could have a mythical creature as a pet, I would want a griffin. It would be awesome to admire its beautiful wings and to feel the fur of a lion and the smoothness of an eagle's feathers on the same creature. Plus, going for rides would be epic!

#vss365 Everyone was grappling with the magnitude of events happening. Our breakdown of society had crept in so gradually. Reliant on technology, critical thinking began to atrophy. Creativity and education no longer in demand. Suddenly our lack of #purpose we couldn’t

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 22 My urban fantasy WIP #BeingRed is nearly in the beta reading stage. I almost finished the first round of major edits yesterday and expanded my initial draft to over 85k words. Soon, I plan on more edits and getting feedback so I can make final tweaks!

#vss365 My eyes? They are glimmering wells effervescent memories bubbling to the surface, shiny copper wishes turning green as light touches water. My smile? It’s a safety vest inflated at will to keep me from sinking into a pool of self-pity, to keep me from drowning in a sea

#FantasyIndiesJuly Day 24 In my urban fantasy WIP #BeingRed, the friendships shift throughout the course of the novel. Initially, Red is very close with her team of hunters who have worked together for years to eradicate werewolves and the danger they pose to humans.

#vss365 A dew drop of #violet hue, on a grey day, washed from view. Rising waters Raging stream Muddy gasp Roaring scream. Nature’s fury sent waves of pain. The dew drop transformed: to tear—to blood—to rain. The storm did pass, and the sun broke through. The lost dew drop

#vss365 She passed through the narrows of disaster like a single silken thread. She'd learned silence the hard way. No one could guess her soul's motive power would #hum like a finely-tuned engine every morning just as the sun broke over the edge of the world.

#vss365 Day to day— a melody of contentment, gentle, #humdrum tempo: home... work... home... measured in breaks— coffee... and lunch. Weekend, a refrain of obligation: chores... and stores and friends. Back to the weekly rhythm— “Good morning.” Day after day. Smile after smile.

#moonmystic #vss365 She wasn't sure what she wanted in a relationship, but #mischief wasn't it. Neither was perfection. She wanted a partner, not a project, someone who could be a work in progress alongside her. A man whose joy could be tapped just by #catchingraindrops.

First went the lights. Then- humanity. A simple #scowl could now land you 6 ft under. Most astonishing was how quickly it all turned. Who'd thought that, a mere 34 days after a global blackout, that human decency would have a shorter shelf life than fresh milk. #vss365 #SatSplat
