  1. #PhantastikPrompts JAN-01 Wo und zu welcher Zeit spielt deine Geschichte?

    #SubconsciousMind spielt in #Anchorage, #Alaska. Zeitangaben gibt es keine genauen, aber die Beschreibung Anchorages basiert auf meinem Besuch dort im Jahr 2019.

  2. #EngenderedWriting NOV-31 If/when writing queer storylines, do your storylines tend toward tragedy? Or hope and joy?

    My gay characters usually don't get their Happily Ever After, but that doesn't mean, they are left devastated. This can mean, they get insights about themselves and/or are empowered. So, it's not exactly a burial site in terms of the #BuryYourGays trope.

    That doesn't apply to one of the two trans characters, I've written.

  4. #WritersCoffeeClub JUL-9 Is your WIP's first chapter indicative of the whole work?

    Mostly, there's not that much difference, but in #SubconsciousMind, the first chapter is nothing like the rest of the story, very abstract, keeping, what's happening shrouded in mystery.

  5. CW: #PhantastikPrompts JUN-25 | #ForYou spoilers

  6. CW: #WordWeavers JUL-02 | #SubconsciousMind spoilers

    #WordWeavers JUL-02 What is the biggest sacrifice your MC is ready to make?

    In the end of #SubconsciousMind, Gareth decides to ditch his toxic family and former best friend as well as break up with his boyfriend who can't be true to him to start his life from scratch somewhere new and finally be free

  7. #WordWeavers MAR-06 Are there characters or events that challenge your MC's belief system?

    In #SubconsciousMind, Gareth meets Stella, not knowing that they have met even earlier and both Stella and the event that sets the hare running make Gareth question if what he did in the past, was right. His retrograde amnesia (cliché, I know) helps him see things more unbiased.

  8. #PhantastikPrompts APR-03 Welche Location aus deiner Geschichte gefällt dir am besten & warum?

    #SubconsciousMind spielt in Alaska, was an sich schon mal ziemlich cool ist. Lieblingsort wäre wahrscheinlich das Writer's Block. Die Atmosphäre dort ist einfach sehr herzlich und man kann dort Stunden verbringen.

    Und das Lokal gibt es auch in RL:

  9. CW: #WordWeavers APR-06 | #SubconsciousMind spoilers

    #WordWeavers APR-06 Does your MC feel understood? Why/why not?

    Gareth is lied to by his parents and girlfriend. His boyfriend is more committed to his reputation than to their relationship. So, no, he mostly doesn't feel understood. Except for Stella, maybe.

  10. CW: #WordWeavers APR-06 | #ForYou spoilers

    #WordWeavers APR-06 Does your MC feel understood? Why/why not?

    #ForYou's protagonist comes to terms with his #asexuality in a #allonormative, sometimes even #hypersexualized world, so he clearly feels alienated and needs to unlearn some things and expectations the society consciously or subconsciously taught to be normal.

  11. CW: #WordWeavers MAR-10 | #SubconsciousMind spoilers

    #WordWeavers MAR-10 What annoys your antagonist the most about the world they live in?

    That LGBT* people exist—how dare they?—let alone, their son being one of them.

  12. #PennedPossibilities 243 — Imagine, if you will, an alternate universe… Which of your characters is most likely to attempt karaoke?

    That would definitely be Samuel. He might be shy at first, but boy oh boy, does he love to sing karaoke—much to his neighbors' chagrin.

  13. #WritersCoffeeClub MAR-01 Have you ever based a character on a real person?

    I did a self-insert in #ForYou, because I needed a Twitter user to tweet about #ace experiences, my MC could read. But it could have been anyone else to whom that description might apply.
