For The Zodiac Asks, Could You Do Capricorn And Aquarius Since Those Are Our Signs?

for the zodiac asks, could you do capricorn and aquarius since those are our signs? <3

capricorn: what does your writing schedule look like? how often does it take you to write a chapter? I love you to bits Briar, but this is a bad question to ask. To tell the truth, I have none. I’m trying to though, with the April prompts, but they’ve been a panic before midnight so I don’t think it’s working well. And chapters? I used to do them over a couple of days since I posted the first draft, and they were all relatively short. I’m definitely going back and rewriting them because I’d like to think I’ve improved

aquarius: what is the most unique thing about your current wip?

I think the powers that my trio have (not that I can elaborate on that much because it’s still not introduced in my book and I don’t want to spoil anything. But maybe people want to hear about them? Let me know? No pressure) since I made an effort to come up with something I’ve not seen before. And also possibly the fact that I killed off most of Earth’s population in the prologue. Yeahhh

That’s one way to vent your frustration, Aspen

TSS Snippet: Card Game

AKA ‘Let Aspen Say Fuck’ Scenario #1:

Emry tossed his cards onto the table with a sigh.

 “I’m all out. Aspen, it’s up to you now.” He leaned back in the chair and crossed his arms. “Please, defeat Cal at least once before her ego gets too big to fit in this room.”

 “Is it my fault that you passed the wrong card three rounds ago?” Cal murmured through a smile from across the table.

 “Yes, it is. The sunlight hit your face a certain way and it distracted me.”

Cal rolled her eyes and played a card.

 “I thought we needed to deflate my ego, Mr. Karic.”

 “I’m fickle.” Emry nodded to Aspen, who was hunched over their cards and frowning deeply. “Aspen, it’s your turn. You have anything that beats a ten?”

Aspen looked at Cal’s card. Looked at their hand. Slumped.

 “Fuck,” they said.

 “Aspen!” Cal’s wide eyes snapped to Emry, who raised his hands immediately.

 “Hey, I didn’t teach him that!”

 “Then who did?”

They both looked to Aspen, whose green eyes flicked up from their cards.

 “Georgie,” they all said at once.

zodiac writing asks!

aries: when have you felt the most confident in your writing? when have you felt the least confident?

taurus: how long will you spend on a story or scene before you give up?

gemini: how often will your plot change throughout the course of writing?

cancer: how do you write emotional scenes? do you ever feel what the characters feel?

leo: what things will show up in every book you write? do you ever feel like a one-trick pony?

virgo: are you very critical of your own writing? how much do you find yourself editing (either during the writing or after the fact)?

libra: how do you balance writing and life? do you ever feel overwhelmed by the amount of writing you have to do?

scorpio: how much research did you have to do for your current wip? what was the weirdest thing you had to google?

sagittarius: do you find your writing humorous? do you have any comic relief characters? what do you do if a scene gets too serious?

capricorn: what does your writing schedule look like? how often does it take you to write a chapter?

aquarius: what is the most unique thing about your current wip?

pisces: how do you visualize scenes? do you see it like a movie in your head, or do the words just flow?

This is brilliant. A side WIP maybe??? For an assassin grandma?

Okay, but consider:

You absolutely roasted Councilmen in the beginning and I was not ready for that

TSS Snippet: Garden Fire

Aka, ‘Let Aspen Say Fuck’ Scenario #2:

Emry was on the cusp of drifting into a lovely nap- on a sun-warmed couch and just after having a snack, no less- when the smell of smoke jarred his nose.

For a moment, he considered ignoring it. He hadn’t touched the fireplace recently, had lit no candles. Surely everything was fine, and these cushions were just so nice and warm-

 “Fuck!”

He jolted up and fell off the sofa.

 “Aspen?” His head whipped around for the source of the curse. He couldn’t hear any footsteps inside the house, nor an echo of their voice in the halls- they must be in the garden. With a groan, he scrambled to his feet and sprinted outside.

 “What’s happening- Aspen!” He skidded to a halt at the back door.

The rose bushes were on fire, and Aspen was darting between them and the birdbath in the center of the garden, cupping water in their hands and tossing it onto the burning leaves. The splashes fizzled and smoked with all the effectiveness of a Councilman’s thoughts and prayers.

Oo

1. @pagesofcursive and I are working on a true love triangle for a short story type thing that I came up with ages ago (that ends like the clue movie because we're both incredibly indecisive)

2. I found out the perfect words to describe Fera's aesthetic: bi pastel plant mom

3. My main trio have two levels to their powers, and only one of them will use the second "tier" by the end of book one
