  13. If choosing between a sword and shield, what would I prefer?

    No contest. In my youth, I was a skilled foil fencer (I competed at the Jr Olympics & the NCAAs). In the SCA (I've since GAFIAted) I learned to wear a sword with no thought. And now I'm learning to wield a katana inTangSooDo.

    Swords all the way!

  14. What are some hills that I would die on in real life, related to books or stories?

    I'm ready to take a stand about all of the book banning that's been going on--but while I'm willing to be arrested, I'm not willing to die. I can do more good if I'm still around to make good trouble.

  15. @elektra Oh wow. Roan says he doesn't like to fight, but let's face it, he loves it. And while Grey doesn't technically like fighting, he knows how to end every single one. (He's big and he punches like a Buick.) #Writephant

  17. I just finished another chapter of my book. This is the second fight scene in my manuscript. It features angels at war, and it’s a real doozy of an acid trip. #AmWriting #Slipstream #Angels #FightScenes

  18. Picked up this 15" adjustable #wrench in a thrift store the other day, though I have little need of one. It's research. You see, the main character of the new #fantasy / #adventure #novel I'm working on uses one as their preferred close in weapon. It's inconspicuous when searched, versatile, and deadly when needed. I'm practicing different grips and striking techniques, and how to hide it up my sleeve and drop it into my hand.

  19. Writing a sex scene is not all that different from writing a fight scene. They are both, in screenwriting terms, a kind of set piece.

    Outline the main beats, the shifting power dynamics, where it starts vs where it ends, character goals & intrinsic obstacles, what changes, what escalates / what regresses, what's revealed.
