CW: long intro ✍️ selfie 🤪 eye contact 👀
You can call me Em (they/any). 👋 My partner @dontdoitneil and I write stories of #queer survival and modern sorcery, inspired by action-adventure #anime series like Revolutionary Girl Utena, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Fate, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Devilman Crybaby, and Arcane: League of Legends.
You can follow the hashtag #ThoseWhoCreateAndDestroy to keep up to date on our grimdark-yet-hopepunk epic switchblade-and-sorcery novel. The complete Parts 1 and 2 are free to read online at https://readformandvoid.com, and Part 3, the conclusion, will be released this summer. (You can also download an ebook of the complete Part 1 here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qvka99my5qpmorx/AADmBqZirCshdOwFR0KJKlf7a?dl=0 📖)
My other account is @[email protected] (and that's the place to get in touch with me if I don't respond to you from here—writeout.ink has some bigger servers, such as mastodon.social, suspended). Here on writeout.ink, I share a lot of excerpts from my #fiction, thoughts on #gender, #trauma, #plurality, #MentalHealth, mysticism and radical thought paradigms, and occasional #poetry.
I came to #Mastodon with the October #TwitterMigration and have been amazed by all the creative and fascinating people here. I'm really enjoying getting to know you all, especially the many of you who are into kickass and deeply personal queer stories, and even creating your own! 🤝

A question for the writers:
What do you do when you start to doubt your narration?
An explainer: my work is in third person, and I'm mostly following one character around. Sometimes I find myself limiting the narration to only what they can see / hear / experience, and it's at this point that I think: 'I can be freer than this with narration. I don't need to see the world solely through their eyes.'
But snapping out of that is difficult.

@Monday I use Plottr. It's the first software I've found that I can actually work with - I can make it do what my brain wants, rather than me having to make my brain fit what the software wants. It's very practical, and can be visual as well - I use it for keeping track of my characters across a series of novels or individual books. Also Notes, and Places, and Tags. And plotting too though I don't use the templates - I follow my own.

CW: From Jules's presentation to the Auctoritas Magicae (excerpt from Those Who Create and Destroy)
(From Chapter 1 of #ThoseWhoCreateAndDestroy. Re: today's #MicroPrompt, "fascinate," courtesy of @crtaxon ✨)
Jules cleared his throat. “Two years ago, when I embarked on my own independent study of the alchemical sciences, I found myself fascinated by Philosopher Lockwood’s suggested non-research applications of alchemy, which he referred to collectively as ‘field alchemy.’ Imagine my disappointment when I learned that, in the seven years that had passed since the publication of Alchemical Science in the Third Millennium, no attempts had been made on the part of Lockwood’s peers and/or successors to actualize or build upon the theoretical frameworks put forth in the paper.” Jules paused, took a shaky breath—then summoned a crooked smile. “Largely, perhaps, because I was too young, too inexperienced, and too foolish to recognize my limitations, I took it upon myself at that time to test and further develop Philosopher Lockwood’s hypotheses. And I intend to demonstrate the results of that experimentation tonight.”

CW: The girl hits the road (excerpt from Those Who Create and Destroy, Part 3)
(Re: today's
#MicroPrompt, courtesy of @crtaxon ✨)She stood just within the highway-facing edge of an endless field of cornstalks more than twice her height, pushing the toe of her boot around in the dirt, feeling like she’d stepped out of her stolen Dodge hatchback onto the surface of an alien planet. Her life up till now had been lived among concrete, brick, and chrome, in an unrelenting haze of exhaust. She couldn’t remember ever being anywhere this quiet and clear, where she could actually hear herself think. It was a stark reminder how many things there were in this world that she’d never seen, never experienced. Of how much she still didn’t understand, even about herself.

Well my #nanowrimo is done and I finished with 12,920 words :facepalm:
HOWEVER I did manage to write everyday apart from three where either I or the kids were ill, which is progress.
My plan going in was to aim to use the month to set up a more sustainable writing process, and that's my challenge going forward - maintaining it despite the chaos of life

CW: I'm afraid to finish writing my book (long thoughts)
Just realized I'm actually scared to finish #AtopTheTreesBeneathTheMountains. I've been working on it for about three years now. I took brief breaks off to write two other shorter books, and I've written a lot of short stories and partial manuscripts in the intervening time, but mostly ATTBTM has consumed me these last three years and I am SCARED to STOP.
I see a clear route to the end, which is a recent development. I've always known how it's going to end, but actually getting there was murky. I had so much to figure out before that could happen. Now I've got almost everything figured out, besides the little details that will come together as I do the actual writing, and...I am scared.
For one thing: What if I reach the end and I'm like, this is it? That's what I did all this work for? What if it's this big anticlimax of a book, and it turns out the whole thing for me was the experience, but the final product isn't impactful upon my life in any way? (Find no traditional publisher, self-publish, find no readers, book fades into my past)
But also, once it's done, I have to start writing other books again. I have to actually look at my standing urban fantasy universe and either commit to returning or...commit to NOT. I have to start marketing books again. I have to treat this like a JOB again.
I also don't really want to leave this universe. It's beautiful and there's still so much more in it that I haven't gotten my fill of writing/mentally living inside. :(
OTOH, what if I finish the book and I feel amazing for having committed to this uniquely MASSIVE project, and people like it? And I do publish it and readers end up enjoying it? What if I find a small but loyal audience that gives my life sustained meaning again, like I did with the Descentverse?
There's no decision to be made here. I'm gonna finish the book. The itch to keep working is going to FAR overrule the itch to turn stagnant so I don't have to change my exact current situation. I might even finish the book soonish, though I'm still looking at another 50,000 words of material maybe. I don't have to worry about this, regardless. Not yet.
