ty for the ask @fearofahumanplanet

20. preferred place to write (i.e., in a note book, on your laptop, sketchpad, post-it notes, etc.)?

I prefer to write by hand in a notebook but it's not always convenient. The final draft however, is always on my laptop.

23. strange habits?

There's an endless list for that lol.

96. desktop background?

Here is the ask game.

anyway! i love stories about disillusionment and bitterness and resentment and casual cruelty and senseless betrayals and festering grudges and lost causes and unhealed traumas and unbreakable cycles and all-encompassing and all-consuming conflicts that have been going on for so long that no one can even recall how they actually came to be. and also divorce.

 Dirtsaint's Writeblr Introduction

— hiya! my name is zack knight. i'm 23, i use he/they/it pronouns, and despite having a tumblr account for nearly a decade this is my first foray into writeblr as a community. i am american by birth, irish by heritage, and aotearoan by citizenship.

you can find more about me under the cut!

— ✦ about me

i enjoy writing, reading, and video games! some of my favorite books (at the moment) are Gideon the Ninth (Tasmyn Muir), Project Hail Mary (Andy Weir), and How to Kill Gods and Make Friends (B. Berry). i also am a huge fan of horror, both movies and books! my favorite movie is either Psycho or Bullet Train.

i am also queer, & disabled. i won't get into the specifics, beyond that i am autistic, but these things both have impact on my writing and the way i write things.

what else really is there? i'm an aries, i play a lot of d&d, i was (and honestly still kind of am) a big homestuck fan. that's me! feel free to shoot me an ask or message if you have any questions, or just want to chat!

— ✦ my writing

CHARLIEVERSE — UNNAMED WIP genre. urban fantasy, horror pov. third person limited content warnings. death, body horror, necromancy, suicidal ideation, discussions of religion (real & fictional), graphic depictions of violence

— synopis. after years of rejected applications, Damaris North is ecstatic to finally be joining the Low Guard; a coven of witches dedicated to protecting Los Angeles and the surrounding realms. When she's apprenticed to Charlie Sanchez- a reviled necromancer and cursemarked witch -she thinks her career is ending before it begins.

However, when a strand of killings tear through the city, Damaris finds herself following Charlie deeper and deeper into LA's magical underworld. As the killers circle ever-closer, she finds herself having to choose who she is- who she wants to be.

DREAMSPACE — ISEKAI ADVENTURE genre. isekai, high fantasy, adventure, lgbt+ romance pov. third person limited content warnings. death, graphic depictions of violence, depictions of mental illness, discussions of fictional religion, suicidal ideation

— synopis. Chess has been living in a video game for the last two years.

She's made her peace with it, for the most part. It took her a while to learn that she couldn't leave, and that no one was coming to rescue her- she was simply part of the game now, like every other NPC. She lives in a routine carefully crafted to keep her sane.

When siblings Pax and Lovelace come crashing into her life, claiming that they're stuck in the same way she is, her routine comes unraveled, and Chess is forced to reckon with her own situation for the first time in years. She pledges to help Pax and Lovelace escape the Dreamspace, only to realize that means she might have to leave it, too.

Masterpost

Hello, Avra here.

I’m just a writer, trying to get words out of my brain and onto virtual paper as coherently as possible. I love sharing bits of my WIPs through asks and tag games and I never get tired of talking about my OCs. I also love seeing all the amazing things other writeblrs are doing. Everyone here is so talented. 

So send me an ask or shoot me a message. Tag me in anything. Spam like my posts. All of it makes me happy. If you feel safer just lurking that’s okay too.

Blorbos are welcome here whether they are from your shows, brain, or whatever. I love seeing people excited about the things they love.

Enough about me. I’d much rather talk about my WIPs:

Beyond the Darkness

speculative fiction, dual protagonists, multiple POVs

After escaping from a Military research facility, Thea is in hiding with her brother Kai. After a run in with a Military Peacekeeper and a former Syndicate member, she finds herself caught between two factions on the brink of reigniting a decades long war.

This story has special abilities, mysterious dreams, Secrets™, found family, a multi-generational war, and a whole lot of sad backstories.

Tags: beyond the darkness | btd snippets 

Characters: Thea | Nix | Gram | Kai | Lucan | Kaori | Ryu | Military | Syndicate | Misc

Nightshade

Beyond the Darkness prequel

Kaori spent her whole life trying to prove herself to her father—only to be cast aside, replaced by her younger brother.

Gram finds 17 year old Nix injured in an alley and risks his own future to keep him alive.

Ryu is left to pick up the pieces and try to hold his clan together in the aftermath of the Military raid and his father’s death.

Nix just wants to be left alone. Instead he finds himself being tracked by a Military Peacekeeper and embroiled in another one of Kaori’s schemes.

Characters: Kaori | Nix | Gram | Ryu | Lucan | Military | Syndicate

Merpeople and Space Angels

This one is still very much in the brainstorming phase. It doesn’t even have a title. I spend time on it when I my other wips start giving me an existential crisis.

what if a merman became friends with an angel?

what if that angel was actually a space alien?

what ridiculous adventures could they have?

what if they learned a secret no one was supposed to know?

what if the angel broke all the rules?
