#LGBTQWriteAThon Sept 24 Prompt: "Do you have any go-to crafting tips you can share with others?"

I make some art cards and leather goods. Best advice I can give is to invest in a really good pair of full-shank scissors. Might cost you a bit up front but you'll enjoy them for a lifetime. These Kai scissors are incredibly sharp and durable, and I LOVE them. 🥰

September 22: "Share some description of a place in your story today!"

Whiterock begins at Kor, the blacksmith raven's, workshop in Galinta, a small village in the countryside. It's a waypoint for birds traveling across the midlands of Volatilia. It's set in a shallow valley with meadows to the north and woodlands to the south.

#LGBTQWriteAThon Sept. 20 Prompt: "Fact Friday time! Share a random fact about your setting!"

The bird city of Whiterock is built atop crumbled remains of a coastal human city. Bird architecture, made from materials that birds can carry, augments & customizes what is there. It's a multicultural, busy place of commerce between land, sea, and sky. A cadre of black-backed gulls keeps the peace.

#LGBTQWriteAThon Sept 19 Prompt: "Do you have a favorite thing about your setting? What do you like about it?"

I like that Whiterock's setting is devoid of humans and birds are free to own the world. The remains of human civilization provide resources for the evolving bird society to build upon. But they adhere to different morals than humans, including a sense of strength in diversity & little prejudice for relationship choices.

Centuries in the future, the Earth is healing as sapient birds, a quality imbued by genetic engineering, are building their civilization atop the remains of man's. They glean the knowledge & materials they can from the decaying remains & are on the brink of a unique brand of industrial revolution.

Sept 13 Prompt: Share a fact about your characters:

I keep true to the biology of my bird characters in Whiterock. So a bald eagle of 5y is adult, so too is a barn owl of 1y or a raven of 3y. They share some foods but maintain their natural preferences, just not eating other sapient avian species in the case of predators.

Prompt: How do you go about character development?

I start w/a few solid chars & develop others per needs of story. Chars evolve as I act them out in my head in mix w/other chars & external forces. New technique I'm using is imagining candid The Office-style interviews w/them at various stages of the story. Pretty fun! #LGBTQWriteAThon #queerwriters

Prompt: Share a main character from a story

In Whiterock, Sashya is a young adult barn owl who learns his relationship preferences as he embarks on a quest into the dangerous world beyond his rural village. His male eagle companion, Pepro, makes him feel safe and liked, but perhaps loved as well? Adversity and time will test. #lgbtqwriteathon #QueerWriters
