Me, talking about any of my characters: They have so much depth, their mind is so complex with so many layers, each more unique than the other.

Me, talking about that same characters:

Man I love how cool and strong that character is. Would love to see them screaming and crying in agony and or fear.

remember when you’re writing a gross and terrible power dynamic that you should be asking yourself constantly how you could make it worse and sexier

people will be like “don’t worry it’s all in your head!” like babe… yes… that’s the problem… how do i get it out of there…

Reblog for a miracle to happen tonight

[mjparkerwriting]

revising your writing is just like "is this weird. is this a weird sentence. is this the weirdest most poorly-worded sentence ever written by anyone" and the sentence in question is "he walked across the room"

[mjparkerwriting]

want to write but some unidentifiable force (me) is making it really hard (I'm procrastinating)

[mjparkerwriting]

FUN FACT: the line between homicidally violent behavior and the line between outrageously homosexual behavior CAN be blurred at will!

⟢ Metamorphosis

status || Drafting stage

POV || Third-person limited, multiple POVs, past-tense

genre || Post-apocalyptic fantasy

✧ ೃ༄*ੈ✩

Yara had never believed the old myths that her mother had told her about Noroi. The mysterious demonic creatures that dwelled in the shadows and abandoned areas, wreaking death and decay to every place they touched.

Leeches, she had called them.

Yara had always dismissed the myths as nothing but fairy tales, little ghost stories created to scare her and keep her from running out too far at night. But, on the night of her 12th birthday, when her home is invaded and she finds herself face-to-face with the father of all Noroi, she sees her mother’s stories for what they really were: warnings.

From that night on, her entire reality is shattered. Left with an empty house, her only companion being a raven that can’t seem to leave her alone, Yara is stuck. She can’t make herself leave her childhood house, the only home she only knows. With a magical barrier to protect her from the Noroi always prowling outside her house, she spends her days inside, the only place that is safe now.

But as the years wear on and the barrier slowly grows weaker, Yara knows it’s only a matter of time before they finish her off. Just like they had done to her family. She’s suddenly faced with a choice: Stay and wait for the barrier to fail, or venture out into the unknown, despite the danger.

Just a quick note from your friendly neighborhood bookworm/indie author

if you use kindle for the majority of your library, they will be shutting down the function that allows you to download your files and transfer them via USB on the 26th of February. Which doesn't sound like a huge deal, but this also means that if a book is taken off Amazon for any reason—like it being banned—they can scrape it off your kindle as well. So maybe backup your library?
