Would there be any interest in a small indie author writing support group on discord? Specifically geared towards people looking to publish in the near future and especially lgbtq+ authors and authors who write lgbtq+ works!

Thinking of holding another Dorian centric event this spring and wondering if folks have preferences for event type? Could be a prompts event, Big Bang, competition, or exchange? I’m also open to ideas!

First drawing in a very long time (maybe of the year)! Trying to get a hang of a different style and of course I had to start with Dorian and Anders. :)

Ukraine Relief Charity Commissions

I never do writing commissions, but in light of the war in Ukraine, I've decided to make an exception. I'm going to be offering a limited number of writing commission slots in exchange for a donation of $20+ USD to any of the organizations listed below.

These will be ~1k written works for original fiction or any of the following fandoms:

Dragon Age, CQL/The Untamed, The Song of Achilles, The Magicians, Hades Game, or Horizon Zero Dawn (I'm barely into HFW so I can't really write to that).

I'm willing to write any rating, but have specific subjects I'm uncomfortable with. I reserve the right to refuse commissions that I don't think I can do justice and will do so before accepting the slot.

How it works:

Confirm your slot with me via tumblr, Twitter, or discord

Send me your idea and I'll make sure it's something I can write

I'll work on an outline or concept and send it back

Send me a receipt of your donation

I'll finish up your work in 1-2 weeks, depending on time and will communicate if I get behind.

If you're a creative of any sort and would like to help in this effort, please let me know! I can create a master list of posts for people taking charity commissions for any sort of creation (art, writing, moodboards, music, etc.). Also, please feel free to use my banner.

Charity Organizations (subject to change):

1. CARE's Ukraine Crisis Fund:

2. Global Giving's Ukraine Crisis Relief Fund

3. Save the Children's Ukraine Crisis Relief Fund

Welcome one and all to Greektown’s Spring Awakening!

This weekend, Greektown Detroit’s Monroe Street will be shut down and transformed into a walkable, interactive plaza full of street food, brand pop ups shops, live music and performers, and art. And the best part? It’s free. With spring upon us and the temperatures beginning to rise even at night, there are not only opportunities for adults to come down and enjoy the night-life, but the entire family can come down and enjoy the afternoon, night, or entire weekend-- Greektown Casino Hotel, of course, makes a lovely staycation. Parking is available in the many structures surrounding the area, including Greektown Casino Hotel’s multi-level parking deck.

What began as a mere idea has turned into a sparkling reality that has exceeded all expectations, bringing together many a local business and people from all walks of life into what has become a mini festival of itself. What is predicted to draw thousands of guests into its historic streets, Greektown’s Spring Awakening pays homage to one of Detroit’s most treasured, most frequented historical locations.

Coordinated by the Greek Preservation Society and Greektown Casino Hotel.

Date: May 10-May 12

Time: 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM Friday and Saturday, 12:00 noon to 5:00 PM Sunday

Location: Greektown Detroit, along Monroe Street

FOOD: From food trucks to pop up tents of your Detroit favourites along with tables of your favourite Greektown delights, there seems to be no end to the good eats and sweets Greektown’’s Spring Awakening has to offer. Everything is well under $15 at each location, and though it can be quite dizzying to go from gyros to chocolate-covered stawberries, hot cheeto-filled tacos to even a lobster corndog, we do suggest trying everything that you can! Maybe you’ll just have to come back another day this weekend to make sure you’ve tried everything ;)

DRINKS: Michigan-made Vernors and Faygo will each have their own tables, and most if not all food ventures will offer the staples of pop and water. Most notably, DROUGHT Juice, Beyond Juice Detroit, and Dessert Oasis Coffee Roasters will be serving some of their new summer staples in small sample form as well as their regular sizes for everyone to enjoy. For the adults, local breweries such the Jolly Pumpkin, B. Nektar, Griffin Claw Brewing Company, and more will be serving $15 mini flights as well to enjoy-- with drinks like Kill all the Golfers and hot spiked cider, these drinks sure aren’t to be missed.

ENTERTAINMENT: From the Detroit Flyhouse School to live bands at intervals in the day, it is practically guaranteed that there will not be a dull moment in Greektown this weekend. Fire breathers and jugglers along with contortionists will take the stage and roam around Monroe Street, performing in different areas on Saturday. Meanwhile, live music from country and indie rock to acoustic artists will take the stage during the day before Detroit’s own favourite radio hosts and djs take control of the music at sundown, ensuring that the good times keep on rolling through the night.

ARTS, DESIGN, and INTERACTION: Watch students from the College of Creative Studies work on a new mural along one of the alleys in Greektown, or get a caricature done of the whole family! The DIA is supplying a large stretch canvas for Spring Awakening attendees to sign or add a design to throughout the weekend, and the piece of art will be displayed within Greektown’s Casino. Special backdrops will be set up against some of the sides of the buildings for those who want the ‘perfect’ backdrop for an impromptu little shoot or Instagram post as well.

SUNDAY: Detroit’s own Eastern Market will take over a portion of the venue as a pop up shop teasing what they will have to offer at their Flower Day, an expansion of the same event happening at Eastern Market the weekend afterward. Though the event next week is to spread over 15 acres, this small pop up will still offer event-goers a nearly impossible variety of flowers, trees, and shrubs, including: jasmine, daisies, lilac bushes, succulents and dozens of roses.

OUT OF CHARACTER

This event is optional and non-mandatory. If you do not believe your character would be present at all during the festivities or would not be a part of Greektown’s night life (more on that here), you do not have to place your character at this event. This is merely a good segway into characters building new, or exploring already plotted relationships. The possibilities are practically endless with this event and venue!

While the festivities only run from Friday to Saturday, writers are free to create starters, moodboards, or anything of the sort beginning Wednesday, May 8. Short paras, one-liners, and other posts will be welcome at this time. Please tag your graphics, starters, and starter calls related to the event with: #detrevawakening -- you are, of course free to use the usual starter tag #detrevstarter for your starters. It would be much appreciated if you would also timestamp your threads as well. The event will ‘end’ Wednesday, May 15, but please feel free to continue/finish your threads at your pace-- this only puts a limitation on when you can start your threads. 

Please note, all companies listed can be found with a quick Google-search. Think of it as a mere reference guide as to what is/could be there at this event. There are members of Detroit Police Department at the event due to recent violence involving civilians. However, like any public event in Detroit, this is considered normal and not out of the ordinary.

Fantasy Indies Feb Masterlist

I decided to make a masterlist of the prompts and my responses to them from #fantasyindiesfebruary I did on my Twitter this month! Prompt list is below, no offsite links (except for one song rec) ♥️

I plan on participating for the month of March as well, so if you're interested, feel free to check it out or join in on the fun! (And check out the other amazing authors that participate too, everyone is really sweet 🥺)

Introduce yourself & WIP

N. Opal here! I'm a hobby romantasy author with a love for world building! I love all things high fantasy, magic and most of all, pirates 🏴‍☠️ My current WIP is the "As A Stranger Or A Friend?" (pirate romantasy) series!

Favorite romance tropes

🫂Friends to lovers

🤝Marriage pact (hit or miss)

🌌Forbidden love/star-crossed

🎭Unrequited love

🥈Second chance

🧲Opposites attract 

🖇️Forced proximity (hit or miss)

Free Friday

My current WIP/series AASOAF is actually a reimagining of two nameless, unpublished original novels and a series of companion short stories I'd been working on for about 8/9mos. Both versions are near and dear to me ♥️

Snippet Saturday

What does your MC think about love?

Mariel: Believes she will never experience love because of her circumstances but pines for it more than she realizes.

Axtapor: Knows it's real but has no idea of how it feels or how important it really is to him.

Broken hearts in WIP

I am afraid to report that all characters are in one state of heartbreak or another 😅 (and over different types of love 🥲)

WIP Love Interest

Mariel & Axtapor (of course) with a little trouble on the side. 🥲

There is a new couple that I can't mention at all bc MAJOR SPOILER.

And an old couple that I also can't say much about bc SPOILER.

Forgiveness or revenge?

REVENGE ⚔️

No further details will be provided 😌

Whumpy scene

Free Friday

The WIP in my bio is a little misleading 🙈 AASOAF 2 is actually already finished. It has been for about month. It is currently in the hands of my close friends who always get to read my stuff first 🥺

Snippet Saturday

You’re invited to a Valentines Ball, what are you wearing?

Definitely wearing this, I love a beautiful sleeve!

WIP romance aesthetic

All I can say is that there are three of them and NO ONE is having fun yet. 🙈

Romantic scene in WIP

There is really only one romantic scene in my WIP (so far!) and I can't share it bc MAJOR SPOILERS. I guess I like making my characters suffer more than I thought😅

Favorite bookish couple

Its gotta be Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester for me 🥺

Advice for writing romance

People in love still argue, fight, disagree, challenge one another, and misunderstand each other. So if I had any advice to give it's that people are STILL people after they fall in love. Write them that way!

Free Friday

For today I thought I'd share a little bit about me 🥺 wrote up this intro post on my tumblr about who I am as a writer, what I do, content I have worked on, and things I'd like to try next!

Snippet Saturday

Sweet gestures in WIP

This one is from AASOAF 1 bc the one that I wanted to share from my current WIP was so redacted it was unreadable 😭

Favorite love song

this was a tough one bc apparently i have a lot of favorites but Eydie Gorme's, Historia de un Amor, takes the cake!

MC’s dream date

They'd plan a picnic together! 

Mariel would cook the food because Axtapor likes her cooking very much and prefers to eat it over anything else. He would take them out to their spot on horseback because she enjoys riding. And they'd probs play card games to pass the time 🥺

Romantic bookish photo

This poem I recieved a few months ago 🥺

Do you like Happily Ever After, Happy For Now, or Tragic Ending?

i'm a sap, i love a happily ever after, esp if the characters have been through hell and back 🥺

Free Friday

AASOAF 2 moodboard

Snippet Saturday

What is your preferred spice level?

If the characters are compelling and I buy into their relationship, I'm down with any level of spice. As far as writing, anything goes! ❤️‍🔥

What are your romance book recs?

I don't have any, unfortunately (aside from the classics), so I will stalk everyone else's posts for some recs 👀

Monthly Wrap Up

This months biggest accomplishment was meeting so many writers! (Here and on Tumblr), it's been so cool 🥹 I also did some solid work on my WIP, shared lore, and tried many new things (moodboards, synopsis writing) ⭐
