Day Two - Treat
for our first treat, the blog is hosting a Writeblr Spotlight!

Writeblr Spotlight #5
i may have missed one week, but have no fear! on board is the wondrous
@ink-flavored !
annika has about a million wips, including poetry, and how she manages to keep all those up to date with amazing writing is beyond me! she writes fantasy and sci-fi, which already puts her up on my list!!
The God-Dragon’s Wife is probably her most current WIP, and, i gotta say, its worldbuilding and characters are the most expansive i’ve ever seen. there’s even a pronunciation guide!! it’s fantasy and lgbtq+ romance (my favourite!), and
join Queen Xinya, a ruler who is struggling to care for her people, Yu-Qi, the god-dragon of passion who’s fallen in love with the queen, and a few more characters we’ve yet to learn about, like Jao, Han-Lao, and General Zhai! (i really appreciate this story, btw, because of the obvious inspiration from chinese culture!)
Firesoul, a fantasy YA book about oppression and courage, where the main characters live in a world where magic is illegal! just like the god-dragon’s wife, the worldbuilding is amazing. the map is so detailed and the history is so rich.
join Teconia, a teenage mage who was just trying to live her life with her family, and Seraph, her younger sister, as they navigate the harsh world of ethallia. Teconia is arrested and locked up in the Sanctuary, only to find a rebellion brewing within the bars of the prison.
along with writing, she runs a game review blog, writes poetry, makes art, and so much more! how can someone be this talented??? she is also part of the violent vineyard, which is kind of like a writeblr family :)
go follow her for awesome content!!
Day Eight - Treat
Another writeblr spotlight, today! I’m doing this a little late because of some computer issues that I had, but I hope that you’ll all join me in checking out the lovely @writings-of-a-narwhal as we explore her worlds, her wips, and her lovely characters!
Elle is always creating new worlds, and her stories are so easy to get pulled into! each one is vibrant and different, with a lively cast of characters that you can’t help but like, and villains that are truly nefarious!
as part of the Writeblr Spotlight, we’ll be doing some rebloggings of her work today!
check her out!
Day Eighteen - Treat
another treat day! and we’ve just about gotten caught up with this lovely little event! truly sorry for all of the delays!
today’s treat day is all about hosting another writeblr spotlight! and do you know who deserves some love?
@writinginslowmotion! not only is she super friendly, kind, and easy to talk too, but her writing is impeccable and her moodboards are gorgeous! Batty has three main wips right now - Lost Girls, Lost Boys, and Paper Hears! i’ll admit, I fell in love with Lost Girls during the August @writeblrsummerfest event, and I’ve been avidly following along with her stories since then!
Lost Boys is newer, and still largely being kept a secret, but I do believe there’s a particularly nice supernatural element to it! and Paper Hearts has a lovely small town mystery, paired up with a police station that is full of lies and shadows, and is just! so interesting sounding!
there’s also supposedly a spooky/supernatural themed short story in the works!
Day Eleven - Trick
you’ve just been tricked into hosting your own Writeblr Spotlight!
this event is about loving your own writing, but also about loving others writing!
so, how do you do this?
pick a blog! write up a post about what you like about their writing, tag them in it, and then reblog and comment on at least three things!
have fun!
Writeblr Spotlight #1
hi! this is my first time doing something like this, so forgive me if some things are a little off.
the first writeblr in the spotlight is the incredible:
@waterfallwritings !
fall writes in all kinds of genres, but his favourite one has to be YA fantasy, which is evident in his two stories: Scarlet Silence and A Selkie's Home.
Scarlet Silence is a fantasy novel about dragons, magic, prophecies, and war—all that good stuff! it also features a diverse cast of LGBTQ+ characters, including a wlw relationship between two main characters, Melody and Savannah! (their first kiss is especially gorgeous; my god, the metaphors and writing is just beautiful.)
the worldbuilding and rules of magic are especially creative, and one of the tropes is found family. catch me crying in the club, dang it ;(
i haven’t read much of it anywhere, but i really hope i get to soon! maybe if y’all go follow fall, he’ll post more about it!
A Selkie’s Home, also known as ASH, is still fantasy, but it’s more than just your typical dungeons and dragons! it focuses on the ocean, pirates, and sailing, and features lots of diversity. lgbtq+ rep, poc rep, badass women rep, and more!
join Adrian, an exiled Triton who just wants to do the right thing, Lorelai, an expert sword fighter with a dark past, Miles, a cheerful sailor who comes from a village that hates the sea, and Morgan, a mysterious selkie that washes up onshore with her selkie skin stolen, as they attempt to accomplish their goals whilst stranded in a ship whose crew wants them all dead.
he’s posted a few excerpts for ASH, which are all amazing and interesting! you can find them here.
he posts excerpts and is super interactive with the writeblr community, so be sure to give him a follow! :)
if there are any specific things you’d like me to add or remove, please tell me so i can make my spotlights better and brighter for these amazing writeblrs!
Writeblr Spotlight #3
this is number three, right? i forget. anyway, this time, we have the spectacular
@astoryinmypocket.
alex is a wonderful, upbeat writeblr who writes all kinds of genres! seriously, in his three wips, he has fantasy, horror, sci-fi, adventure, and more!
The Wolf and the Lion is his first, and you can find excerpts of the first two chapters @thewolfandthelionos ! currently, though, it’s on hold, and he’s focusing more on his other two WIPs. but be sure to give him a follow for updates!
Reign is an LGBTQ+ fantasy novel with a small twist—everything is based on statistics and numbers. so things like leveling up, databases, ritual arts, and stats are all huge parts of the story! it also has multiple and alternate endings. ooh~
join Ria, a heroic knight-in training, and Emelie, the princess of Larros, as they wade through the waters of the ongoing civil war and try to figure out how to save Larros and themselves.
Lights Out is alex’s sci-fi horror story, and though there isn’t much about it at the moment, it looks incredible. people are going missing, temporal fissures are breaking into our world, and something else seems to be at play. something... more sinister.
(i hate horror but god this looks so intriguing, i would suffer restless nights to read this)
alex is one of my first writeblr friends, and is so supportive! he posts about his excerpts all the time and has some great writing advice! be sure to give him a follow :)
if there are any specific things you’d like me to add or remove, please tell me so i can make my spotlights better and brighter for these amazing writeblrs!
Writeblr Spotlight #11
next, we have the stupendous
@fernyquotes !
foy (is that how they go by?) writes all kinds of genres in the YA category, from fantasy to mystery to romance to drama, and they have four whole WIPs! four! can you believe that? they’re mostly focusing on two, at the moment, though.
September Magic is their main WIP: an lgbtq+ diverse urban fantasy story about witches, ghosts, spells, and more! set in toronto during the fall, (which is a lovely sight in toronto. i adore the autumn) this story is about four witches and how they resurrected a dead raccoon, had tea with a British flamingo named Sir Alistair, but most importantly, how they saved the world.
join Lizzy Bahar, a young woman working at her family’s grocer, Andrea Abelman, the witch who loves indie music, Lewis Park, the optimistic witch who can make anyone laugh, Patricia Khatri, the introverted and beautiful witch, and Olivia Alfonsi, the bubbly witch who’s a hopeless romantic, as they work out their September magic.
The Medusas takes a darker turn, with a beautifully symbolic title. this lgbtq+ mystery romance story features The Medusas, an organization that originated from a group of women; survivors of abuse, rape, and discrimination. this group grew into a modern company, hiding under the guise of Peacelily Cosmetics. but there’s a problem.
join El, the youngest Medusa alive, as she tracks down the serial killer that’s been murdering the Medusas. but she quickly finds out that the truth is something no one would have expected.
foy also creates lovely moodboards! they’re actually some of the best i’ve ever seen, and i just adore the one they made for me :)
