I got tagged by @spork-of-rae to do the handwriting tag (and as you can see my handwriting is awful).

I tag @docxie @the-mighty-microwave and @sunhaterfreak but feel free to ignore it if you're not up for it.

tagged by @sautrns and @farrradays, thank you both!!

this is from a collection of short pieces centered around where the cellar meets the sky’s core trio of Juniper, Avery and Isaac. TW for death, insects and like, uncomfortable descriptions, i guess?

Juniper wakes up to darkness.

Her tongue is dry and swollen, her eyes unable to make out anything around her. For a moment, or what could have been months, she’s back in the explosion. She doesn’t move.

The beeping of the monitor has stopped, the ringing in her ears dead silent. Is that what this is, then? Is she dead?

She’s never let herself think about death before.

Trying to move meets resistance, but no pain. She’s not warm, not cold, but somewhere in-between, somewhere that isn’t the neutrality of comfort either. Oddly, it’s as if she’s become a part of the darkness, one with the void. This doesn’t feel like the void, though. The void is bright. She’s been through it enough times to know.

Then, buzzing. It comes on gradually, it might have even been there the whole time, but once she’s aware, her skin crawls. She wants to rip it off, but she cannot move. There are bees in her skull, bees from the hive outside of Avery’s house, and she is dead and she has been handed over to the bees. What marvelous honey they will make.

i’m going to tag @writemares , @pechaes , @rhikasa , @starshots , @marcheuse , and @thegrievingyoung

feel free to ignore!

first line tag⌨️

thanks so much to @farrradays for tagging me!!

this is the opening line from the prologue of my NaNoWriMo novel Webs & White Roses this year:

The first nail was hammered into the wall of the house on a foggy day with grey skies and an air of absolute foreboding.

and as i don’t really care for that one as much, here is the first line of the first chapter:

The trapdoor is less of a trap and more of a door.

actually now that i’ve seen them side by side i like the first one better nfijnsjnsjf

FIVE LITTLE KNOWN FACTS TAG

tagged by/ nathan @eloquenceandemphasis and mir @noloumna (thank you guys!!!)

Rules/ Give 5 little-known facts about your wip then tag 5 people.

WIP: WHERE THE CELLAR MEETS THE SKY

(1) WTCMTS is the first project i’ve ever worked on that has lasted! i’m a fairly recent writer; i’ve always wanted to write, but until WTCMTS, i could never keep anything going. oliver @helpimlostinwanderland and i started WTCMTS in july of 2017.

(2) WTCMTS’s avery is loosely based on an imaginary friend i had from the ages of 5-12; the imaginary friend (who will remain unnammed) and the world that he was apart of inspired a lot of WTCMTS’s worldbuilding at first but after a couple months the story grew into its own sort of thing and now they are two completely separate things in my brain.

(3) sage and avery were originally supposed to be a couple; when isaac was introduced, over a year after we started working on the WIP, i couldn’t bear leaving his unrequited love storyline unrequited, and i was really getting a gay vibe from sage anyways

(4) i just came up with the title after almost 2 years with major help from charlie @oscqrwildes <3

(5) we still aren’t completely sure how it’s ending! which is stressful! we have a lot of ideas and books one-three are mostly mapped out but for the most part book four is blank. fun! but we’ll get there :))))

[11/11/11/ TAG] 

RULES: ANSWER 11 QUESTIONS, ASK 11 QUESTIONS, TAG 11 PEOPLE

[thanks to @bookenders​ for tagging me! i loved your questions, and also, i love your url! i’m putting this under a read more because i talk a lot NDJKFNKSFK]

[Q. 1] WHAT KIND OF STORIES ALWAYS GET YOU RIGHT IN THE FEELS? WHAT MAKES U CRI EVRYTIEM?

[a.1] HSJFSJSFJ the bold makes this question look very intimidating! i always fall for the sympathetic villain. NOT the severus snape, personally, but more the draco malfoy. i’m into the sun/moon dichotomy; when the characters are two sides of the same coin, i die instantly. i fall for regina mills and emma swan, clarke griffin and lexa kom trikru, kaz brekker and inej ghafa, partners who compliment each other. i also get weak in the knees for rivals who can tear each other down or build each other up given the chance.

[Q. 2] DO YOU KEEP NOTES AROUND FOR YOUR STORIES? HOW DO YOU ORGANIZE THEM?

[a.2] i keep a journal full of everything, but it’s not organized at all bhjbsjhshf, and other than that i use the notes app on my phone or text my coauthor and screenshot the texts and i keep those in a folder

[Q. 3] WHAT’S THE NERDIEST TRINKET/SWAG/ITEM YOU OWN?

[a.3] oh, god, a lot! i’ve gotten rid of a lot of my nerd stuff lately but ummm i still have a sonic screwdriver i think hahaha and i still have my dan and phil plushies and a full size camp half blood tapestry and a lot of fan themed jewelry! oh i also have two pygmy puffs one is pink and one is purple and they’re named arnold one and two, and i have the raven cycle tarot deck DDKDFSBFD i said it was a lot! but i used to have more

[Q. 4] WHAT’S THE WEIRDEST THING YOU’VE EVER WRITTEN?

[a.4] HAHAHAHAHAHAH i was like 12 so idk if it counts but it was like. fanfiction of pjo where i basically copied rachel’s character exactly and made her get with percy and made both annabeth and rachel get jealous :/ 

[Q. 5] WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE STORY/KIDS BOOK WHEN YOU WERE LITTLE? WHAT DO YOU THINK OF IT NOW?

[a.5] the secret garden by frances hodgson burnett!! tbh i had to look up who wrote it because i haven’t read it in years and i didn’t care who it was by when i was a kid FSDNKJNS but i used to love it so much! i should reread it

[Q. 6] DO YOU HAVE A “WRITING OUTFIT?” 

[a.6] omg no, i just write in whatever i’m wearing when inspiration strikes lol, that sounds like a good plan to do more laundry tho KSFFNKD

[Q. 7] WHAT BOOK (THAT YOU’VE READ) WOULD YOU SAY WAS YOUR FAVORITE TO IMPRESS SOMEONE? WHAT BOOK WOULD YOU SAY IS YOUR FAVORITE TO A YOUNG KID? 

[a.7] this is such a good question! to impress someone i would probably say the song of achilles and to a kid i would say percy jackson because the kid has probably read percy jackson and if they haven’t they should

[Q. 8] HOW DO YOU BOOKMARK PAGES IN A PHYSICAL BOOK? DOG EAR? ACTUAL BOOKMARK? RANDOM NEARBY ITEM?

[a.8] usually just something nearby! right now it’s a string bracelet i never tied, but i also do have an actual bookmark i use when it resurfaces 

[Q. 9] DO YOU REREAD YOUR FAVORITE BOOKS/STORIES?

[a.9] i try to! i used to do it a lot, but it’s hard for me to stay focused now with my impairments. i want to reread grishaverse soon though because i need to read king of scars and i don’t remember enough of grishaverse SFKJBSJKFS

[Q. 10] DO YOU READ LITERARY MAGAZINES?

[a.10]  i don’t read any magazines lmao but if i were to read a magazine it would be a literary magazine

[Q. 11] DO YOU LIKE GRAPHIC NOVELS/COMICS? WHICH ONES?

[a.11] nope! could never get into them

[MY QUESTIONS]

[1] HAVE YOU EVER HAD A WRITING JOURNAL BEFORE? IF SO, IN WHAT WAYS DO YOU THINK IT HELPED YOU IMPROVE?

[2] HAVE YOU EVER DONE NANOWRIMO OR CAMP NANOWRIMO? 

[3] WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CONCRETE OC EVER LIKE? 

[4] DID YOU HAVE IMAGINARY FRIENDS AS A CHILD?

[5] HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WRITING? HOW LONG DID YOU WANT TO WRITE BEFORE YOU STARTED?

[6] STYLISTICALLY, WHAT WRITER DO YOU ADMIRE THE MOST?

[7] HAVE YOU HAD A MENTOR THAT HAS INFLUENCED YOUR WRITING?

[8] WHAT WEATHER IS THE BEST FOR WRITING?

this is from the first draft of illunius, which was my 2018 nano novel that i still have not finished *face palm emoij* 

“I was nothing before,” he says, the remark coming out with less snark and more honesty than he planned.

Shaye’s hands slip from his face, and Jareth finds black eyes meeting his own with more raw truth than perhaps ever before. “You could never be nothing.”

The sun sets.

this is a little long for this tag IM SORRY FSKJBHGBSDHB and this is kinda a spoiler too OOF hopefully the no context will keep it from giving too much away

tagging @radwrites @eloquenceandemphasis @maskedlady @victoiirres and anyone else who wants to do it!! tag me if you do!!
