Hey writers and readers!

Just wanted to let you know I've gotten my youtube channel, Tea Time with Tana, up and running! First video will post this week, and stayed tuned to see what the subject will be (Hint: it's either writerly, readerly, tea-ly, geeky, or vintage-y) 😉

In the meantime, here's the intro video. Just to represent what my channel's all about, and what kind of community and haven I want to create/provide for writers and readers alike! 💛

WIP Files Game

Thank you @mariahwritesstuff for the tag!

Tagging: @indaysinaya, @alnaperera, @penandsorcery, @axl-ul, @tlbodine, @tpbwrites and whoever else wishes to do this.

Rules: Post the name of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! and then tag as many people as you have WIPs.

I work on all my notes for all my WIPs through Notion, so I will post ten of my categories as they are kind of sporadic and have their own niche purposes for my mind. 😁

Hey #Writeblr community!✍🏻

I've never actually introduced myself on here. I've had this account for a very long time, but have never really been on here much. I want to change that, as I love how this is the "hide-away corner" of the internet of the social medias. Sorry my username is not exactly a writerly online-handle, but nevertheless—I write!

But anyway, hiya!👋🏻 My Generals:

> My name is Tana! > My Website : home to my blog, The Blue Label, and links to all my finished books. You'll find all things about me here, as well as a hidden surprise you'll have to click around to find! 😉 > My Instagram : full of tea-time aesthetic! Tea parties, finger-food-delights, and books?! And you're invited! > My Pinterest : helpful and aesthetic boards for writers and booklovers alike! Here, you'll find tips, tricks, art, memes, and heavenly inspired, hand-picked-with-you-in-mind aesthetic image pieces 💛 also aesthetic boards for my geeky fandoms and my WIPs. > My TikTok : full of my writerly dilemmas in the silliest, over-the-top, and most irrational of manners in under ten minutes, as well as exclusive content to my research adventures for my WIPs 🤪 Laugh at that quirky, writer drama with me! > My Vintage Shop : a place where elegance and the divine are stuck in time 🫦 one of my many hobbies—and most favorite!—is antique/thrift shopping for those one-of-kind French, vintage pieces to add to a space begging to be adorned with shiny, classy, sassy beauty.

What I’m Writing: (cont. under the read more) 💜

Main WIPs:

> The Afterlife Chronicles (T.A.C.) : is a YA Fantasy series currently in the first draft and research stages about two paranormal-investigating besties with spiritual gifts that stumble upon the same ghost trail as a famous reality-tv paranormal crew. They join forces to take down the unexplainable and impossible supernatural activities going bump in the sleepless nights of an otherwise quiet cattle ranch. As the investigation unfolds, so do the secrets. About the spirits that haunt it, and about some of the investigators themselves.👻 Overall, the series will involve ghosts (spirits), angels and demons. > the girl who walks alone : a new collection of poems following the rise and fall of my twenties / trail-blazing behind my first published poetry book, WALLFLOWERS BURN WILD, a reflection of my past with my ex of five years. It is nothing more than pure rage and slam poetry, sprinkled with optimism and slivers of hope. A lot of my poetry reflects mental health, self-esteem, and personality issues. Plus many more. * My stories all focus on the themes of healthy and unhealthy family relationships, found family/friendship, overly complex socio/political/religious/magical conflicts, betrayal, revenge, second chances, and forgiveness, w/ romance and hopepunk happy endings even if it’s a dark situation.

Smaller projects on the back burner that you might hear me talk about from time to time:

> Tea Time with Tana : a podcast I've been dreaming about for half a decade, but haven't had the means or opportunity. . . until now! I will be starting it soon, as it is tailored to four main topics (but obviously not limited to them): Writing, books, tea, and vintage. Geek-talk will also be a big contributor, as I, myself, am a giant nerd for Scooby-Doo, Powerpuff Girls, anything written by Meg Cabot, and literally so much more! 😂 Once I start it, I'll provide the link in this post! > The Wiccan : a stand-alone novel I've written bits and pieces of that was originally going to be a true witch story. But now will be part of my T.A.C. universe. This will be the origin story of my Chronicles MC's ancestry line, in which so-many-great grandmothers ago, MC of The Wiccan struggles with her spiritual gift in the midst of the 1630s in Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts, where being even the slightest bit individualistic is lethal. A lot of re-researching and rewrites to be involved, but I'm very excited about this piece as well! 🙈 > Love Games, No One Like Alex, and other possible stories : you may hear me mention these other titles as they are back-burner WIPs that I haven't actually written yet but have toyed with the ideas for years and really want to make happen. Attention is minimal, but I can't help plotting, because that's just my mind. 😅

Other Stuff About Me: 

> Full Sail University BFA undergrad in Creative Writing 👩🏼‍🎓 > As I stated before, I'm a giant Geek! 🤓 But not just in fandoms to do with the fictional world, but also I'm really into art, history, and architecture! Interior and exterior design, just all things beauty. Visually and intellectually. 🥴 > I'm a spiritual Christian! Though I'm new on my walk with Christ, I'm excited for where he will take me throughout the course of my journey in this life and what it is I am to learn before I come home. My current WIP, The Afterlife Chronicles, has helped me find Jesus, which has made writing this series all the more special. 💗 Please feel welcome here, as I love everyone and am open to any and all compassionate conversations! > I'm a Swiftie, loud and proud! 💘 > Mega-lover of grilled-cheese, carbs, cats, and soups! * No politics or current events allowed 🚫 there's enough noise outside Tumblr, let's keep this space safe.

Oh my god, so am I! Talk about being inside my head😂 My stories aren't typically boring to me, but man am I stuck if I don't know the purpose or setting per chapter!

Hi Mariah! I hope you're well

Hi Hal. I'm doing okay. Just kind of going through the motions really. Writing has been going good until recently where I'm at a bit of a standstill in my current WIP so haven't been feeling the motivation but will get there eventually.

But how have you been doing? 💛

Hi Mariah! I hope you're well

Saturday April 22.

But noooo, this is no mere Saturday. It's only motherflippin' International Mother Earth Day 2023!

And it's an important one. In their own words:

"Mother Earth is clearly urging a call to action. Nature is suffering. Oceans filling with plastic and turning more acidic. Extreme heat, wildfires and floods, have affected millions of people. Even these days, we are still trying to get back on track from COVID-19, a worldwide health pandemic linked to the health of our ecosystem.

Climate change, man-made changes to nature as well as crimes that disrupt biodiversity, such as deforestation, land-use change, intensified agriculture and livestock production or the growing illegal wildlife trade, can accelerate the speed of destruction of the planet.

This is the second Mother Earth Day celebrated within the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. Ecosystems support all life on Earth. The healthier our ecosystems are, the healthier the planet - and its people. Restoring our damaged ecosystems will help to end poverty, combat climate change and prevent mass extinction. But we will only succeed if everyone plays a part.

For this International Mother Earth Day, let's remimd ourselves - more than ever - that we need a shift to a more sustainable economy that works for both people and the planet. Let’s promote harmony with nature and the Earth. Join the global movement to restore our world!"

It happens to the best of us😅

🔥WALLFLOWERS BURN WILD🔥

✨A slam-poem book of trials and tribulations of the heart in a toxic love affair. What does one have to overcome to heal through such tyranny? What words have to be said for the truth to release such burdens of the bruised ego, and to finally become clean?✨

[teatimewithtana]

Thank you for the tag @eternalwritingstudent. I love exercises like these! I'll have to see if I can come up with similar ones!

My character Athena will be answering from my WIP called "The Afterlife Chronicles." If I'm tagged again, I do Ariel!

1. Are you named after anyone?

No. My mother made it a point to name me uniquely.

2. When was the last time you cried?

When I tripped and fell into a dug grave pit and couldn't climb out. The demon in there with me wasn't very pleasant either. Which is to be expected I suppose.

3. Do you have kids?

HA! No.

4. Do you use sarcasm?

Not as much as Viola. But I've been known to do so out of annoyance, at least that's what Viola always says.

5. What's the first thing you notice about people?

Their energy. I don't trust wishy-washy energy.

6. What's your eye color?

Grey. Or a pale blue. Whatever you wish to call it.

7. Scary movies or happy endings?

I'd say neither. But closet-ly I enjoy happy endings (but don't tell anyone).

8. Any special talents?

Well, I guess seeing spirits and crossing them over to the other side is what some would consider a talent. But personally, I'll toot my own horn and say my poetry is quite good.

9. Where were you born?

Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

10. What are your hobbies?

Trying the local restaurants and supporting local, homemade shops. Hiking, sight-seeing. Just enjoying nature really.

11. Have you any pets?

I have my wonderful cat companion, Kaléko. She's a F1 Serval (Savannah).

12. What sports do you play/have played?

Sports? Mmmm, no thank you.

13. How tall are you?

5'3. With shoes, 5'4.

14. Favorite subject in school?

History! English is a very close second.

15. Dream job?

Viola and I always wanted to own a quirky New York gallery called "Portraits & Poetry." But secretly, our own reality, paranormal show.

I am going to tag: @pheita @mariahwritesstuff @lalainabooks @words-after-midnight @newdawnhorizon @talesofsorrowandofruin @nightcastor @maplesap @feralscrittrice @angelasscribbles @shellyscribbles @bexminx @btranwrites @catchingbigfish @eternalwritingstudent

15 tags 15 mutuals

Thanks for tagging me @toribookworm22. This looks like fun.

I'll be answering these for Freedom from Thief Without Faith. If I get it again, I'll do a different character.

1. Are you named after anyone?

"No, I named myself."

2. When was the last time you cried?

"That's a bit of a spoiler, but after some serious injuries in Paradise."

3. Do you have kids?

"Me? Kids? HA! No. No. Never gonna happen."

4. Do you use sarcasm?

"Noooo, I'd never use sarcasm."

5. What's the first thing you notice about people?

"How they carry themselves and how my gut reacts to them."

6. What's your eye color?

"Green. There's a gem called chrome diopside that matches them if you want to be specific."

7. Scary movies or happy endings?

"I don't know what a movie is, but a happy ending would be nice. Getting it is another story, but I'd enjoy it."

8. Any special talents?

"I have shadow magic."

9. Where were you born?

"In an elven city, I'd rather not talk about it. Sorry."

10. What are your hobbies?

"Collecting blades. Sharpening blades. Practicing fighting and using my blades. Most important... drinking whiskey."

11. Have you any pets?

"No pets, but I have the best horse in the world named Midnight."

12. What sports do you play/have played?

"Does running from the law count as a sport?"

13. How tall are you?

"I'm six feet tall."

14. Favorite subject in school?

"I didn't get to go to a normal school, but magic when I did get to go."

15. Dream job?

"I don't want any job. I just want to be safe and live in peace. Wait, is being rich a job?" I am going to tag: @pheita @mariahwritesstuff @lalainabooks @words-after-midnight @newdawnhorizon @talesofsorrowandofruin @nightcastor @maplesap @feralscrittrice @angelasscribbles @shellyscribbles @bexminx @btranwrites @catchingbigfish @teatimewithtana
