NANOWRIMO 2023 PROJECT

~ The Seal and the Ravens

Genre: High Fantasy, Fairytale Features: Magic, curses, witches, thorns, poison, princesses, family problems POV: Third person (multiple) Books: Standalone Content Warning: Violence of the fairytale variety  Status: Ready to draft! Synopsis: Based on a few fairytales by the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen, mainly Snow White, Rapunzel, The Twelve Brothers, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid, and The Travelling Companion. While the princess of Iarannor sets out to find her lost brothers, cursed by a wicked enchantress, her childhood friend is rescued from a storm by a selkie who's dreamed of the human world all her life. All fates are intertwined by the mysterious woman who sleeps in a tower in the centre of the Sleeping Lake. Where do you think it got its name?

It's my nanowrimo project for 2023!! I've had this idea in the works for ages but only committed to outlining it properly recently, as I decided I'd give drafting it a go!

Let me know if you're interested in being tagged in future posts about this project!

Main Characters:

Astra, princess of Iarannor

Daiyu, the fairest of them all

Orion, the huntsman

Tarni, the little selkie

Jeric, a lost brother

Thia, locked in a tower

Dala, the enchantress

Chessa, the sleeping beauty

nano 2023 let's gooo

Well, friends, it's that time of year again. Why I have once again decided to leap straight from Whumptober to Nanowrimo, no one knows, but here we go.

The difference from 2022 to 2023: last year, for both Whumptober and Nano, I was "playing to win" (so to speak —playing against myself, of course), while this year I wasn't/will not be. Like, if I end up writing 50,000 words this November, great!

But. I have an issue with being competitive (again, only against myself; I hate competing against others in most contexts) and I know I will get obsessive about 1667 words every day and getting every single badge, etc., etc.

So I'm just...not.

I don't have a word count goal. The goal is simply to finish the first draft of angsty heist wip. If I can, great. If not, great. I started it in April, got distracted by TQOL and life, and the poor story's been languishing around the midpoint since I put it aside. I think if I can push beyond the midpoint, I'll be all right. But even if that turns out not to be true—oh well!

I'm still going to work on TQOL, and since I've fallen into editing TPOT and have been looooooving that process, I'm going to keep doing that, too. So this Nano is really just going to be about doing the writing things I want to do and that make me happy, and if angsty heist wip gets finished as part of that journey, well, bonus.

Is this more a #CalmWriMo as coined by @winterandwords? Why, I suppose it is. Thanks for putting forth the idea and the hashtag. 😊

Anyway. Happy November, happy Nanowrimo, happy Calmwrimo, happy another day of being alive, and happy writing!

Bonus lines for anyone who made it to the bottom of this ramble lolololol.

From The Queen of Lies chapter whatever-the-hell-it-is-now-this-one-used-to-be-chapter-7:

In the faintest reaches of her heart, she allowed herself to grieve ever so little, and to wonder if she would ever see him again.

I made it to Chapter 30 in editing The Prince of Thieves, oh god oh god:

“I don’t know anything else,” she says, her voice shaking. She’s half off the floor, frozen now, breath coming in little bursts. I know, whether I live beyond today or not, I will never be able to forget this moment—her terrified gasping, her wide eyes, the way her chest rises and falls so fast it’s hard to follow. My hand tingles, fuzzy and warm in memory of how it clung to hers all night, and I am struck with how much the idea of Hatchett ending Bree Cooper’s life threatens to rip me apart from the inside.

nothing for angsty heist wip lol I'm sure those will be forthcoming throughout the month

The first artwork for Komi Month 2023 is going to be Shouko Komi as Kishin Sagume!

If you know anything about these two characters, then you know exactly why I chose them.

The writing's on the walls!

(some of these are wips i’ve started but am planning to start from scratch due to not working on them and needing a new approach in order to actually make them work, so if any of these sound familar, that’s probably why)

This is the status of my dino a-z project as of the end of 2023, I think I can deff finish this next year. It's deceptively time consuming though, each dinosaur is very confetti heavy, so many greys. But it's worth it and I'm very much so enjoying this project and can't wait to see if finished.

The WIP project - positive thoughts

Hello writerly friends!

Are you frustrated with your WIP? Is your WIP giving you trouble? Does your story grow uncontrollable? Have your characters gone in a direction they were not supposed to? Is your WIP turning in circles but not going in a definite direction? 

Go to https://the-book-psychic.tumblr.com for a free session of book consultation. 

rattle click swoosh

Sorry about that, you know how it is, advertising is everywhere. 

Anyway.

As you can probably guess by the above nonsense — I’m frustrated with my WIP. And I started to notice a pattern in how I think about my WIP. I’m so negative! All I keep going on and on about is how it sucks, how it will never turn out well, how it’s too convoluted, the characters are either too complicated or too cardboard cut-out.

Doesn’t it get tiring to piss on your own enjoyment, lady?

I read/heard somewhere that negative thoughts attract more negative thoughts and positive thoughts attract more positive thoughts. And I definitely need more positive thoughts here.

So, let’s have some positive thoughts. 

My story has snarky banter that’s so much fun to write. It has a fantasy setting where I can add all sorts of whacky stuff. My main character is a grumpy older woman and I love her so much. My two main characters start on very different mindsets and they will grow with each other. With snarky banter.

Now you. List three positive things about your WIP.

“It’s a deal then.”

Poor young necromancer Fei Krowley Cipher , gives up half his life up to an entity to escape his troubles from reality; sad mortal lets this haunt infest his mind and soul to become detached from those tragedies. Yet the consequences are fatal.. his body grows weary. His mind hazy with mixture of memories. His and the demon alone.

A pact is a pact’ one cannot avoid blood contract. The necromancer? Oh he’s still around’ hes still here. Just not always in control. His grief is a feast’ for this is his lesson.

inspired by a hazbin hotel scene
