Trying to come up with superhero names without them sounding corny is the most difficult part of writing this silly superhero story, I swear. They're all either too edgy, too childish or too clunky.

Good morning, fediverse. I'm currently writing a novel with a main character who's a trans woman. I've written multiple trans characters in the past … but never one who's trans femme AND taking hormones. I'm looking to hire someone to do a consultation on the effects of starting hormone therapy. Specifically, I'd like to talk about psychological changes. Happy to pay for your time. Consult can be via email or Zoom.

I *just* downloaded DokuWiki on a Stick so I can migrate my Markdown notes into a full blown wiki to reference. Some helpful people on Reddit advised me on how to properly secure the ports and such of the built-in Apache server, but I'm still nervous. 😬

I'll definitely be keeping the Markdown files as backups but this will be a game changer if I can get past my anxiety.

Looking for some advice from everyone in the ! I decided on a WIP to, well, work on until late March before Camp NaNoWriMo. The problem is, I'm ~750 words into it and I'm losing motivation. I'm finding it difficult to write and I'm getting pumped for a different (but connected) WIP.

Should I push myself with this WIP or take a break and switch to the other one?

Gentle mist rolled from my lips as I stood against the brittle cold breeze, afternoon sunlight doing nothing to warm my numbing cheeks. It was damp, the recent rain tainting the air with the smell of deep earth & musk. In that moment, in the eerie silence that rose the hairs on the back of my neck, I thought, "I want to write a winter story."

Déjà vu nags at the back of my mind; I said this last year, & the year before. It never happened. It never will.

How about a quick WIP introduction? I have 3 in the planning stage at the moment & it's difficult to choose a single one to introduce to you all first, *but* being indecisive has never helped anyone. Here goes nothing!

• The Betrothed •
:_stars: Sci-Fi Fantasy Erotic Romance
:_stars: Trans Man MC
:_stars: Cis Man LI
:_stars: Married at First Sight meets Cluedo
:_stars: Heated, Nontoxic Dynamic

I can't believe I haven't posted my yet! I'm Ares and I've recently moved here from a certain bird app. I'm an erotic romance writer, focusing on gay male fantasy and science fiction. The majority of my pieces include trans male main characters -- the erotic romance genre is severely lacking in trans male representation!

Okay so... 2022 wasn't the best year for my writing. A lot of planning happened, but not a lot of writing did. Oh well! I'm going to set some pretty loose goals for 2023 (and some stricter backup ones) in hopes I can reach them.

How has everyone else's 2022 been with regards to their writing? Have you already sorted your goals out for 2023?

I just discovered Book Quote Wednesday is a thing and I WANT TO PLAY! Today's word is 'deep.' I can't resist sharing these tense little moments between Asagi and Yutaka.

Dream of Baton Rouge

I was in the poppies.
You were a vacancy,
a flower shaped hole in my world.
It was there, that I wanted.
I wanted so badly and I wanted to share it with you;
the wanting.
The carving of red emptiness out of a void.
Red words that wanted to be read aloud and to you;
In the poppies.

It was in the poppies, I think.
The jasmine and the dahlias had wilted to brown emptiness.
You were there, in red and I wanted.
A red yearning (the poppies)
so fierce and hollowing, so reticent, so empty,
so eager to be shared,
and I wanted to pick them for you.

I was right there in the poppies.
A solitary moment in the wanting.
Standing there, with all my red desires,
smears rimming my eyes and the corners of my mouth,
The shame,
I almost showed it to you. The red one.
There in the poppies.

would it be bad form to take advantage of the new popularity of to shamelessly plug my own books of a similar style?

cuz I'll do it.

I have too many WIPs so choosing just one is difficult, but I think I'll go with my personal unnamed WIP because I've planned more of that.

1. X Files-inspired.
2. M/M paranormal, soft science fiction and soft fantasy romance.
3. Novella collection exploring different plots and scenarios.
4. Classic sceptic and believer pairing.
5. Main character with an attitude.

do any other here have books you really love that just languish on your backlist for some reason? I've been thinking about my second, Drive, lately. I really love this little thing. I get the urge to write a sequel about every other day, but almost no one has read it and it makes me sad.
