  1. #PennedPossibilities 1014 — If it came down to it, would your SC choose to protect the MC in a dangerous situation?

    Klein would reverently stay out of Medb's way and coup-de-grâce anyone that managed to not die on contact from the wrath of his goddess. (Medb is working on talking him down from the whole worshiping her as a deity. it just makes her a tab anxious to be venerated by someone who's brother she killed during a hunger frenzy) That is to say he would absolutely have her covered if she somehow were not in a position to rectify the situation.

  2. I forgot how toilsome writing log-book style journal entries can be.

    Dry semi-detached but observational.

    My anchor is more in the emotional &/or introspecting thoughts.

    This chapter/logbook is a firsthand account but second hand action. It should, /should/, be noticeable to the reader as an echo of the prior chapters events as it's accounting what was going on "in reality" while Medb's consciousness is gaoled by the symbiote.

    I think I am obsessing because unlike my favourite trick of swinging the reader into momentary confusion with an unnoted slide into a dream sequence, I'm doing the opposite and adding clarity rather than subtracting it.

    NTS, when finished, ask N + J to read the chaper and be brutal.

  6. My current WIP, Dreams Out Of Time, is finally taking shape. Might have it ready for beta readers by the end of the summer. #Riders_of_the_Dream #writing #sciencefiction #selfpromotion

  7. #PennedPossibilities 989 — Is your MC an immigrant or newcomer in the place where they live? If so, where did they emigrate from and where do they currently live?

    Medb is an immigrant. 2nd chapter you find out she came tumbling into this universe mid fight with a mage known as Martin of Maledictions.

    She's a fish out of water, but she's a piranha that can walk on its pectoral fins.

  8. #WordWeavers 2026-04-09 One of your characters is seeing something unbelievable. What is it and why are they seeing it?

    Klein experiences one of the echoes that is attached to Medb.

    He relives Sævvr's memories from his last day alive, and things turn /wait, what the fuck is going on/ at the point where Sævvr dies and Klein starts to 'fall out sync' as it were.

    Why he see this? Well, to crudely simplify things, blood born lycanthropy mixes with spiritual essence lycanthropy

    Kind of like popping 5 caffeine pills a min after eating an edible, and a ghost turns up

  9. #PennedPossibilities 973 — How do you select the names of your characters? For you, is there a method?

    Names have meanings.

    Sometimes the name is an anagram for a detail about the characters.

    Sometimes they're thinly veiled nods to some work I enjoyed, such as Van Ander who runs the bar *The First Sip"

    Sometimes the name is derived from the real world that has meaning related to the character.
    "Klein" is German for small or little. Klein is named such because he starts with a small or limited experience.
    His brother "Laric" is a derivative of "Alric/Alrich" meaning ruler or leader. Where Laric went, his younger brother Klein would follow.

    Sometimes a name follows in-universe rules such as with Wyth Fork where the names from the main continent use diphthongs and double consonants in specific patterns.

    Klein's auto-ratchet made a soft brrtrtrtruum! for each bolt he loosened as he purposely worked slowly going all the way around the lid.

    He tried once or twice to whistle a tune to distract himself but to no avail. His mind kept interrupting to rehash the conversation with his older brother. His mind kept trying to work out to what extent Laric was upset. His mind kept pondering how long it would take for Laric to come around.

    His mind was making a lot of unhelpful, unproductive noise.

    Klein grabbed the edges of the lid with both hands and slowly thumped his head against the container a good four or five times before drawing a breath and letting loose a heavy exasperated sigh.

  11. #writerscoffeeclub 2026-03-28. Do you ever sacrifice blunt clarity for prose that flows well?

    That's a good question I'm not sure of.
    I write with poetic paints but it's fairly clear. I think anyway.
    -------

    Medb sat on the carved boulders that adorned the top of Balin Tor. Gíana leaned on her shoulder as the two watched the smoke from the second and third Kerbesh military outposts still rising up in the distance, like black Jörmundur spawns rearing up, silhouetted in red sunset far behind the Cryyl Mountains.

  12. #WordWeavers 2026-03-23: What are you careful about when writing?

    I tend to be careful with continuity, both characters and events. #SanguineDreams sprouts off of an existing story so it's important to me to not break cannon events, and to not write established characters in a way that contradicts established behaviours.

    I bet John sighs in relief a bit when I move into sections that are 100% my creation so he gets a break from the texts at random times of 'Hey I need info o
    about <thing that wasn't intended to be high depth/importance outside the story>. Oh and I fleshed out (aka built insanely dense lore) details of <thing that was self contained to the story>'
    😆

    Actually I retract the joke. John gets gassed up when I seize upon subtle bits and implications of his writing, and then shake them around like a dog with new favourite chew toy. Him & the other writers on the series are super supportive of the arcane and 'woo-woo' direction I'm navigating the ship.

  13. #scribesandmakers March 23. Do you consider yourself a frood who knows where their towel is?

    Wolf laughs at the reference. HHGttG! In one WIP where the MCs are off on adventures to a new star, yes, they are definitely cool & know where their towel is and they use it well. The ships are very efficient in slipping between stars. As for the other WIP characters, they got some frood about them, but sometimes they can't predict what's coming, and as for how well the towel works, the Dream hild many surprises.

  14. #WordWeavers 2026-03-19. Share something that makes your SC different from your MC.

    Large difference, Klein is from a farming colony within the Dream. He was just another generic person that chose to become a Jinrō (a low end type of werewolf for simplicity) of Clan Tsagaansoyoo (a crime syndicate & werewolf clan) He's rather savy about things within the Dream since he's native to it and the various technologies. Vs Medb who comes from a universe/planet where humans barely had matchlock rifles .

    Klein also can read/write several of the common languages in the Dream. Medb is functionally illiterate within the Dream since none of the languages she speaks exist in the Dream. She speaks Tradesman Tongue which is close enough to common english for her to get by, but it uses a different alphabet of 37-42 characters

  15. #PennedPossibilities 960 — Describe the longest romantic relationship your MC has ever had. (If they’ve had one.)

    Medb has had a low intensity romantic relationship with Lyshí (second in line for the Silver-Ash throne) that spans 8/900 years, and over lapped with Medb + Líth's relationship.

    Sort of a Country & City casual relationship id this were a tween romance book

  16. #PennedPossibilities 957 — Does your MC have or wear a signature color?

    "Eyes as orange as harvest moons seemed to glow against a bulk of black shaggy fur"

    Whenever I am stressing that it's dangerous to be within Medb's immediate reach/sprinting range, you see a description pointing out her orange eyes. She's watching with interest. Descriptions of them as shining go pretty much hand in hand with unleashed violence.

    Orange sits between Red (typically associated with wrath/anger) and Yellow (usally meaning caution/warning)

    If she's in wolf form, I purposely contrast them against her black fur for a subtle 'something in the abyss is starring back'

    ---------

    Her ear twitched slightly as Medb mentioned ‘pack.’ “So you are a werewolf?” Cpt. Nadie probed, a little frustrated and still unsure about the stranger. Other werewolves she'd previously encountered weren't like this person. They were always wolfish because of Luna's constant presence, and this woman clearly didn't smell like a Jinrō.

    “My Líth was a spirit walker. I expected to find your ship decorated with sacred symbols, painted with woad. I'm not sure why I expected thet with how odd this place is.” Medb did a little salute gesture with the shot glass and set it on the bar, then turned to properly face the doe. “Werewolf is the human word for my people. The Sídhe and elevens called us faoladh. But we are Rhai’r-tir, the people of the land.” Medb’s orange eyes examined Cpt. Nadie, taking in the lingering traces of the disguise that she had used to infiltrate the Hippodrome. “I am a werewolf, unlike thet daughter of a bastard Trinity. She is a human clad in fur.”

  17. #WordWeavers 2026-03-09 If you need to share an important piece of history/lore, what’s your approach that avoids infodumping?

    Flashbacks, dream sequences, digestible dialogue, metered out within internal monologues within the action of the scene.

    There's a bunch of ways.

    Dream sequences are a favourite as there's lots of malleability with the real+surreal amalgamation that occurs when we experience temporary tango with Thanatos.

    Current WIP section I'm working on, Klein is blacked out dreaming. He's reliving someone else's memories. it's lore for Medb and her tactical planning ability, all wrapped in action and tension.

  18. #PennedPossibilities 950 — Can your MC swim? If not, why not? If so, how did they learn?

    Yes Medb can swim as a wolf, but more effectively in human + hybrid forms. She uses butterfly strokes. She's not fast but she is a strong, high endurance swimmer.

    She had to figure it out on the spot when a Jötunn chucked her off the rampart and into the ocean during the final siege of the Hoarfrost War. This is also why she uses butterfly strokes, she never learned/figured anything else.

  19. #WordWeavers 2026-03-04. When was the last time your MC lied? Why?

    Define "lie"

    Will she mislead to get out of trouble?
    No.

    Will she pretend to be a peasant woman in distress to bait a dispatch of troops into an ambush?
    Oh yes.

  21. #WordWeavers 2026-03-01 What is your greatest fear about your characters?

    That I fail to translate them to paper adequately.

    Medb is a highly intelligent juggernaut with alien motives and wants, dropped in a foreign universe as everything she cared about and protected was erased from existence

    Klein was just a grunt in a clan /& criminal organization, who only recently started to undergo the Jinrō transformation from receiving the Clan Alpha's blood gift. Medb intersecting his life is the epitome of "that which does not kill us, leaves you irrevocably changed." (and usually traumatized)

    2026-02-28 How well did this short month go for you, in terms of writing?

  23. #WordWeavers 2026-02-30 — Do you write scenes out of order?

    Yes.

    Sanguine Dreams is being written non sequentially, but with sequential continuity.

    Abstractly progress looks like

    - 50% of ch2
    - 100% ch1
    - place holder note ch5 to flipside of ch4
    - 35% ch3
    - scene within ch8
    - finshed ch2
    - a chunk of ch6
    - 25% of ch4
    - anchor scene for ch10
    - 50% of ch3
    - finished ch4
    - another chunk of ch6
    - finished ch3
    Etc
    Etc

    It's a larger project so I am being more reverent with listening when the muses say to write what part they've made ready to reveal

    And if you were curious, no I don't have an outline. This is just how my brain puts the jigsaw puzzle together.

  24. #PennedPossibilities 941 — MC POV: Name one thing you lied to yourself about. Why did you do this?

    Medb: "This question I do not understand. Wherefore deny what is? Deceivement unto thyself? Perish and rot in ground. From within flows to without. As day makes chase of night's tail, always be sooth."

  25. #WordWeavers 2026-02-24. Tell us something about your MC that seems unimportant but really is crucial.

    People periodically note that she smells like a pack of wolves and murder of ravens.

    A little bit of a spoiler for planed topics for the sequel The Shapeshift-Heir: She made an agreement with the Morrigan to get knowledge about the death of her daughters, and the guarantee that only Medb could permanently kill their murderers.

    A consequence of this agreement is she carries echos of Rhai'r-tir that died and traces of the Morrigan's portent of death. Medb was called upon by the Morrigan to kill individuals that had cheated their due death.

  26. I'm a bit giddy for a next bit I'll be writing once my brain coalesces a few more particulars .

    + pays off a casual mention of about a Klein + Medb incident/accident
    + a dream sequence - quasi flashback (I do love dipping into the surreal - realness of dreams)
    + setting up precedent for/a demonstration of something Giftzahn observes to Trinity in a later chapter (I'm not writing sequentially so it always makes me giddy when I find the roots that grow the flower in a lter chapter)
    + builds on the bones of a sub story involving Klein
    + sets up precedent for how some things in the sequel will look/work.

    - I have to be careful with Klein's dream sequence + results there of.
    - threading the needle with why Medb is/will be an existential threat to the werewolf clans, if more than just Trinity & Giftzah know about her. And do it without slamming it in the reader's face
    or conversely making it imperceptible

  27. #WordWeavers 2026-02-20 : What tropes are in your current project?

    I had to parse my work because I don't exactly write with tropes in mind, they mostly arise with how the story grows
    Partial List ;
    - blue/orange morality
    - chosen one, with a 90° subversive
    - uplifted animals
    - touched by Vorlons
    - viral transformation: regular and turned 90°
    - found family
    - our Werewolves are different
    - Alpha, Beta, Omega power dynamics: regular and subverted
    - That Which Does Not Kill Us: Makes us stranger
    - Don't Piss Off a Moma Bear
    - Prison is a Dream (literally there's a chapter "Elysium Bastille" as Medb's consciousness is suppressed to try and control her)
    - Traumatic Knowledge / Mind Altering Knownledge
    - Civility of the Savage / The Savage isn't the Uncivil
    - Fucked Around, Found Out ,( or as I like to call it 🎶You don't mess around with Jim🎶 )
    - and others

  28. "...... If you need to physically guide her, use only your finger tips or gently use the back of your hand, and speak softly. Do not grab her, that triggers her defense and attack response. If you see her move into a lower posture, look at the ground and back away slowly. She'll typically go back to a standing-rest posture like at the beginning of the holding cell video after ten or fifteen minutes of nothing.”

    Laric looked at Klein who was transfixed in rumination by the image on the wall. He couldn't get a good read of his brother's thoughts. “What’cha thinking lil' brother?”

    “She sure as shit ain't an uplift, she changes too fast to be a Jinrō…” Klein’s gaze shifted from Medb's image to Giftzahn, and with a dead serious tone he simply asked, “What is she?”

  29. #WordWeavers 2026-02-16. If your MC had a statue put up in their honour, what would it be for?

    A prank to make her uncomfortable.

    Medb will accept a 'thank you' , but putting up a statue will probably result in a missing statue the next day.

    #SanguineDreams #riders_of_the_dream #RidersOfTheDream #werewolves #werewolf

  30. #PennedPossibilities 931 — In your MC’s opinion, what would be the worst way to die?

    Unremembered.

    Rhai'r-tír culture is huge about maintaining the memory of the departed.

    From The Line of Rememberance as part of proving you're an adult.

    To the Litany of the Long Winter as part of funerary rites.

    To die and your name not be spoken ever again... horrible.

    #SanguineDreams #riders_of_the_dream #RidersOfTheDream #werewolves #werewolf

  31. #PennedPossibilities 930 — Would your SC risk their own life to save a stranger?

    Klein would. He'd hesitate because that urge, that more pure sense of selflessness, is a recent development. But he would.

    The point where his life intersects Medb's is a time of flux.

    There's a scene where the reader and Laric (Klein's brother) find out he's been drifting away from the status quo of clan Tsagaansoyoo. He's developed a sort of wanderlust, and an understanding that the hunger to find what /elsewhere/ he feels the call of, will make staying still unbearable.

    This peeling away from the clan makes him deeply realize that there's more than the will of Supreme Alpha Trinity Tsagaansoyoo and the orders handed down by Giftzahn.

    #SanguineDreams #riders_of_the_dream #RidersOfTheDream #werewolves #werewolf

  32. #PennedPossibilities 929 What is your MC's country or place of origin, and where do they currently live?

    Medb is from the territory nestled between the Deintyþ Mountains, Cryyl mountains, and a long span of very tall hills called Badbra's Maze. The territory is sometimes called "Eria's Cradle" as the moist ocean air rolls over Badbra's Maze dumps most of the snow in the massive valley before mellow out as it hits the mountains, giving it a longer intense winter. Eria's story (the origin story of the Rhai'r-tír) takes place during winter and involves the Deintyþ Mountains, and there you go.

    Currently she is a nomad within the universe known as The Dream

    #SanguineDreams #riders_of_the_dream #RidersOfTheDream #werewolves #werewolf

  33. #PennedPossibilities 927 — Is your MC proud of who they are? Why or why not?

    Pride in Rhai'r-tír culture is a bit odd in relation to how our culture tends to think/view it, I'll do my best though.

    In Rhai'r-tír culture to be proud is to be humble.

    Medb is the Trine for her territory. It's a position of responsibility and honour given by the collective community of the territory because the individual has earned the trust and confidence of reliability by deeds. It is the collective consensus that she is the one who will lead them in emergencies / crisis, and occasionally settle disputes. Her skills are recognized as being of equal value though different from the Primary & Second ( who cycle between being on the Council of Eria and being the day-to-day leader of the territory )

    Medb's pride looks like a humble confidence in the collective judgement of her people that she can lead them when needed.

  34. #PennedPossibilities 923 — Tell us about something a character of yours feels confidently about.

    I haven't written the particulars of Klein's epiphany (working on the set up to it currently)

    But Klein experiences a moment that causes a subconscious intuition that's drifting in the dark, to fall on the ground under the street lamp light of profound understanding.

    He believes Medb is a "fallen god." Not as in 'was good but turned evil', rather she's a god that's been 'removed from her proper ecosystem'

  35. #WritersCoffeeClub 2026-02-06 From start to finish, how much time elapses in your current WIP?

    Time is on the fuzzy side in the setting of The Dream. My wip Sanguine Dreams intermeshes with the existing story Hippodrome, which has a vague timeline of when events take place.
    Sanguine Dreams starts with that vague timeline sequence, and peels into a bit more defined timeline (characters making specific remarks on passages of time) as it departs from the fallout of Hippodrome's events.

    Currently I need to figure out how long it takes a Jinrō to change from human to a wolf-person. Or at least how long it takes Klein to complete the transition. I'll bet a bacon grilled cheese that @GrayWolf57 never thought some weirdo dweeb would be getting into the particulars of what were supposed to just be common mooks 😆

  36. #TimeTravelAuthors 17 Jan: Saturday excerpt (optional word: work)

    I'm working on something new, outside of #Riders_of_the_Dream. No title yet and this is a snippet from the prolog.

    I stand to join him and our ten tentacles touch and intertwine, small blue flashes pass between us and my shell begins to hum and Zomacta begins to sing and his shell swells and his union split cracks. My own shell begins to split and I sing my response to his vocalizations. So with the rise in pitch of our song my syphon fin slices out between my shell split and probs his. His seed sack opens for me and my syphon sharpens and elongates, slipping into Zomacta’s seed sack. His seed is ready and plentiful and my body on its own accord begins to vacuum them into me where they will be fertilized and grow into our children. Hundreds fill me and I am filled with great joy. With one eye stock I look on Heaven beneath and hope for good souls and with the other looking at Heaven above, I thank those of the past for bringing forth our birth so many seasons before.
    But I stop my song as I see one of the lights above move out of the night’s procession of lights. It moves straight and grows brighter as it crosses the black velvet of the Heavens above. Zomacta stops singing as well as he sees the same that I have seen.

  37. #scribesandmakers 11/2 - Egg

    I saw lots of food and evolutionary responses. And yes, I like eggs, steamed, seasoned in my romen, fried over medium, white, brown, or speckled. And which was first, the egg. But when I think of egg, usually Easter is attached and I'm not talking about the once a year event but rather the literary term. I love to slip them into all my works. Foreshadowing future works and connecting previous works to current one. #Riders_of_the_Dream stories are full of #easter_eggs. Though I started my tradition of Easter eggs long before that.

  38. #writerscoffeeclub Oct 16. How much does your working vocabulary change between works?

    I'm not sure. Terminology changes between #Steampunk and mainstream #SciFi. But a lot of it is easily transferable between works of what basically fall under one genre. And, in #Riders_of_the_Dream it is a mix. We have #Star_Trek, #Babylon_5, #Firefly, #20,000_League, even a bit of #Moby_Dick. Quite a mish-mash.

And, in #Riders_of_the_Dream it is a mix. We have #Star_Trek, #Babylon_5, #Firefly, #20,000_League, even a bit of #Moby_Dick. Quite a mish-mash.
