#PennedPossibilities 1077 — How important is technology to the daily lives of people in your world or universe?
Important. Daily. In most respects, their world seems as modern and urbanized as ours. Bolt uses lighting technology to light her home. Though she can fly, she takes the metro with a friend who doesn't have wings. She takes an elevator and converses with the elevator operator. They have bullet trains and interstellar colonies… but not electricity.
Still tech. They depend on it.
They even have computers, but I suggest you search for original meaning of computer.

Five stars:
Snake-Eater by T. Kingfisher (2025) is Gothic desert horror set in a fictional Quartz Creek that is somewhere in the liminal space that is Four Corners adjacent. Selena arrives by train with her dog, her meager possessions and about $22 dollars to her name. She's come to stay with her aunt, only to learn that her aunt passed away the year before.

#WritersCoffeeClub #WCC 2026.07.21 — Do your works contain erotic elements? How far do you go?
The dictionaries I surveyed are pretty explicit and in agreement about this word. Below find the definition from the The Oxford Learner's Dictionary. I feel it is the most encompassing one and, I think, the most consistent with this question:
Erotic adj: showing or involving sexual desire and pleasure; intended to make somebody feel sexual desire
In this case clause A can exist exclusive of clause B. So, my first answer is yes, but the current WIP isn't an erotic work.
As for my second answer: My MC was a track and field star in high school with a tuned body to show for it, with a great personality, able to attract any partner and did, and kept them, and boasted dozens. Still a hick, often sexist, sometimes prejudiced. Ends up a criminal. The story takes place when the MC is turning 30.
She's a woman. I write gender fiction.
Her perceptions of what is right in her society are what's important. What people consider right contrasts starkly with what we do, especially gender roles. Her experiences must ring true. The story isn't about sex. It certainly doesn't use common bodice-ripper or porn vernacular (it takes place on a different world) but the narrator doesn't fade to black. Why would she want to? She's proud. In a sense, she's boasting since the story has the flavor of the 1st person narrator conversing with the reader. It's also confessional. Yet, the narrator needs to convince the reader what she reports did happened—and sometimes, as a day angel with flying scenes, that what she reported was physically possible. Details? Right? There's her why, her joy, her worries, her confusion as to why she acts, and her justifications from inside her head amidst all the turmoil in her life.
If the reader gathers what physically happened between the characters, good. Not the purpose. It's plot advancement. If, further, the reader enjoys what they figure out happened, fine. Everyone is acting in the confines of their gender roles, arguably acting out, or sometimes exceeding self-imposed limits and finding meaning in and tolerance for the unfamiliar, which is thought provoking. Which is my intent.
How this works in practice (not-explicit): #excerpt
Bad enough that the Thousand Eyes associated me with Shugh. Me riding him, too? I wasn't sure I wanted not to. My body had its opinion, my brain another. Another lost memory surfaced of me at an eatery near school, aftergaming with my track team rowdy behind me, me preening in front of a skeptical cook at a smokey grill: "I can't have too many men; women need to compete better," but now I was thirty. I'd feel really bad if I hurt Shugh…
Her attitude about sex here is matter-of-fact and neutral. From our point of view? Some readers might find how she thinks about her passions erotic.

#WordWeavers 2026.07.20 — If your antagonist could improve one thing about themself, what would it be?
[Yes, I plan redemption arcs for my antagonists. Not saying they're easy to earn, or if they'll grow to deserve them.—R]
Improve himself? Learn how to make real friends, or figure out some way to do so. His current life as the goose that laid the golden egg is certainly comfortable, but lonely. His interlude with his courier (the woman MC of the story) made his loneliness worse because though she clearly hated him, she set that aside and demonstratively enjoyed having fun with him while remaining unerringly direct and open in their conversation, and now, that she's left, the house seems hollow. He knew what she felt. He's even thought of giving her all of the evidence he blackmailed her with, to see how she'd react, if maybe he could get her to join with him—but the syndicate that's made him its beating heart might react badly if she could freely leave if she chose to. His action might make her less safe, no, undoubtedly it would. He knows it's a bad idea. How can he make friends when he's as trapped by his own machinations as those he's trapped?

#EroticMusings 2026.07.19 — Week 60 (July 19-25) [based on Penned Possibilities 63] PoV (any character) What's is the dirtiest thing you've ever said, or heard?
I can't answer this one in PoV. There simply is no way to translate the figurative or metaphorical concept of "dirty" with regard to sex, in the context of their society. They simply don't think that way. So long as the situation is appropriate and the acts are consensual, even coworkers, and certainly friends, would think nothing of sharing art, relating tales, or maybe suggesting partners—or simply suggesting—and if people acted upon it, well, whatevs, "Tell me how it went." The erotic does exist; there merely is no associated onus or shame. Trust me, these are human beings: there's plenty psychological craziness to go around to make things interesting, just not that.

#PennedPossibilities 1076 — What challenge does your MC dread even if they wouldn’t run from it? Why does it stand out?
Bolt has grown to accept her life as no longer her own, She's the messenger; people she delivers to want to kill her for that reason. She grows fond of a coworker, an increasingly very obviously dangerous daemon enforcer, blackmailed into taking the job, actually a young woman, a thaumaturgy student. Bolt is tasked with passing orders. The enforcer wants to be left alone to study and, as their boss tries to entrap the enforcer into worse criminal acts, she increasingly takes out her ire on Bolt until Bolt dreads delivering her blue envelopes. Bolt feels they're fish caught in the same net trying not to be lifted from the water, so she continues to like her coworker and tries to be friends.
It's not easy.

#WordWeavers 2026.07.19 — MC POV: What scares you the most about the future of your world?
[Bolt, day angel woman:] I dunno. Just living, working for the mob, is kinda scary enough already, but there was the news…about the government saying the population had declined 30 million to 240 million since the moonshot 200 years ago. Still, 240 million! That's an unfathomable number. Can't get me to worry about that.

#WordWeavers 2026.07.18 — What is your MC’s favorite family tradition?
Bolt ran away before becoming 18. She didn't value her family until she didn't have them anymore. I could be crass and say both mother and daughter (Bolt) enjoy their men, but without the context of their society, you don't know how boringly prosaic that statement actually is. There's not much else that really qualifies that most other day angels don't also do.
