#michaelandlucas — Public Fediverse posts

Another thing, I rarely do, but did in #Unmodeled, is having multiple main characters with their own storylines. A chapter always consists of three sections for one storyline each.

#MichaelAndLucas is similar, yet, the storylines alternate between chapters, not within.

#WritersCoffeeClub 11 Do you consider any of your work to be unfilmable?

Not per se. It's all a matter of budget.

I would shoot the #SoulBearer trilogy in #TheVolume/ #Stagecraft™️ due to it being fantasy and therefore requiring quite some VFX shots. Later scenes of #FindingMe take place in the future. #MichaelAndLucas probably never gets completed.

#WordWeavers JUL-28 Are any of your MC’s ever pregnant or nursing on page?

Well, not pregnant per se, but in #MichaelAndLucas, an earlier story of mine, there are two gay men, who conceive a child solely from their genomes/chromosome sets.

#WritersCoffeeClub JUL-14 Where is your WIP set? Why did you choose this setting? Describe your world-building.

#MichaelAndLucas is a Science Fiction story which has a utopian setting: Scientific breakthroughs (curing cancer, procreate with two sets of semen only, etc.), less hate towards people who are different.
Their daughter also experiences the effects of #ClimateChange first hand, not having lived through a world before these drastic changes.

In #MichaelAndLucas: Working out how society as well as science could and would develop in the near future and between time jumps to be both realistic and serving the plot

#PennedPossibilities

#PennedPossibilities 31. Is the world in which your WIP takes place worse or better than when your MC's were children?

Definitely better. I mean, they, a gay couple, can procreate without any egg donors and can both be biological fathers to their child. What could they ask more for?

#WordWeavers DEC-31 What kinds of societies and economic systems appear in your stories.

– #ForYou: An allonormative one
– #MichaelAndLucas: One where homosexual couples can get children naturally without external help
– #SoulBearer: A fantasy world, where people's souls when they die are carries around in their descendant's heads until they also die

#WordWeavers DEC-22 How did you decide, you wanted to write a book?

A while after I first wanted to give up writing during writing #MichaelAndLucas (https://mastodon.online/@shaedrich/111587286056453605), I thought about how to avoid the situation that brought me to this mindset. I finally decided on writing a short story instead of long form as I am used to (yes, still one third less than other authors). And in the end, #ArkanCotton was a success on that platform, judging by the comments I got
