  1. #writingPride 6/13. Have you ever included a queer stereotype, trope, or in-joke? 2/2

    Forgot in #KonbiniIdol the chief romance is between a butch/Femm pair. There is a lot more to them than that, but they were definitely conceived that way.

  3. #writingPride 6/11. Are there any closeted queer characters in your story?

    They might not talk about it but that's a product of the story rather than their lives.

    Arguably Maylees (in The Damsel and the Mermaid) or Miralees (in Dragons of the Wounded Land) are closeted initially but only because they haven't realised where their affections lie.

  9. #writingPride 6/10. Free space for queer characters.

    Being bi myself, writing bi characters has always been my easy way out. And because I write female presenting characters almost exclusively, that means women with women is the culturally "non-standard" option. (Language is stupidly awkward at times.)

    So deciding to write a lesbian MC was a very deliberate decision, which is how Miralees from the "Dragons of the Wounded Land" series, came about. It's also why I decided to make sure I wasn't doing anything stupid so had the books read by a lesbian writer friend (not here on Mastodon).

    Her only comment was "moooaar romance!".

    So yeah, Miralees knows she's different but not why until she falls for Daria in a big way very suddenly. And is somewhat horrified by what happens. (She gets over the shock quickly, and over Daria eventually.)

  13. #WritingPride June 4: Does queerphobia or repression of non-cis, non-hetero people exist in your setting?

    Kostyk faces rejection of their gender identity within their community, but queerphobia is not really present in the world at large. It’s fringe at most.

    While I wanted prejudice to be a key component to the political tensions in Vsevora, I did not want them to be based on sexuality.

    A lot of my readers have expressed they really appreciate that aspect of the work 💜

  14. #WritingPride How do you portray your characters' queerness?

    Velodik wears it on his sleeve with his promiscuity.

    Oskar and Emil with their quiet, steadfast bond.

    Kostyk through processing past trauma and growing in their identity.

    Others… just between the lines.
