#PennedPossibilities 985 — How long have you been writing or when did you start? I started writing when I was kiddo. I don’t remember my age, but I just know that I was really young. I always played TTRPGs like Dungeons and Dragons or DnD, though, and I’ve always adored that sort of thing. Storytelling, acting, ren fairs, etc. My dad loved bringing that out of me as a kid, especially when he was reading to me or encouraging my writing. Going on hikes with a walking stick and pretending we were hobbits on a long journey and all that. Telling stories is just in my blood. I’m a lot like my daddoo. #WritingCommunity #WritersOfMastodon

#PennedPossibilities 986 — Check-In time! How are you enjoying working on your WIP? Are things going the way you planned, or has the outline somehow changed along the way? I can’t recall ever enjoying something quite this much. Everything changed for me around the fifth chapter, and I’m loving the way things are going. I changed the universe’s entire lore based on a wild idea that came to me one night and my girlfriend told me to, and I quote, “go for it,” and I’ve changed everything about who and what Alistair truly is. It was a huge revelation on my part, seeing as I’ve written stories with him for over a decade. He’s different now, and it’s wonderfully refreshing and fun. What I’ve come up with, and how things have changed, added so much depth and substance to the story itself, and made a series all the more possible because this *has* turned into a series by now. #WritingCommunity #WritersOfMastodon #WingsOfQuietLonging #ParanormalRomance #Fantasy #Gothic #Victorian #Vampires #Werewolves
