Today’s #WIPSnips word is memory! This story deals a lot with trauma and PTSD. We’ve got memories galore, from the bittersweet to the haunting. 🖤

Today’s #WIPSnips word is “sister,” and Nell and Jasper’s sibling reunion is anything but happy. If you’ve read A Vision of Ruin, then you know Jasper has a few secrets of his own!! 😳

Moodboard for a novel which is a work in progress by Elisa Winther, with the working title "A Healer's Scars". It will be the first book in a series, written in third person limited through multiple points of view. The image includes a square with the working title "Healer WIP" and it's genre "Dark Fantasy", but it also includes a romantic subplot. At the top, from left to right, there is an image with someone sitting by a wall with their head in their hands, cloth draped about their waist that trails on the floor towards the camera. There are masks on the cloth. The second image has arms breaking free from cobwebs in a dark setting. The third has paper with the text "the past" on it, burning. Below those last two describe images is one of a skull laying among green moss. The bottom row of images is one of bottles reading "Forget", one of dark robed people holding one in a white gown up as if in sacrifice, and a black background with "I can't go back" repeated all over the image.

Moodboard for a novel which is a work in progress by Elisa Winther, with the working title "A Healer's Scars". It will be the first book in a series, written in third person limited through multiple points of view. The moodboard includes the text "Haunted by a past so unforgettable", "A Healer's Scars -- book1", "Healing isn't linear", "You make me feel like a person", "I pray to the shattered god", "These lands have not been allowed to heal", I bleed in order to heal", and "time to break the cycle". The images include a circle of dark robed people, one holding a dagger, and a person caught in the middle, a skull dripping honey with honey combs and bees on it, a shadowy hand reaching from the depths, and two pictures with text, reading "No, I'm not human, I'm a with the rest of the text blurred out", and "the chains are broken, but are you truly free?"

Today’s #WIPSnips word is “power.” This entire series is about witches with nature-inspired magic so we had a lot to choose from. But here’s a lil somethin’.
#queerbooks #sapphicbooks #bookofpayne
In this book, our cast are dealing with three different villains: a spy in their ranks, a Prophet they’ve wronged, and an army set on wiping them from existence. Things are looking grim.

Today’s #WIPSnips word is “pant.” Pant>Panted
Poor Nell is haunted by guilt at the start of this book.
#writesky #queerwriters #queerbooksky #darkfantasy
#wipsnips the Book of Payne series reads like a villain origin story, and I’m having so much fun exploring Nell’s darker side.
#bookofpayne #queerbooksky #sapphicbooksky #darkfantasy
Today’s #WIPSnips word is “force.” 😉 Nell is definitely one with the force, but she’s using it in all the wrong ways.
#darkfantasy #queerfantasy #queerauthor
Today’s #WIPSnips word is “apparent.”
Nell’s rash actions in The Blight of Blackridge have started a war she has little hope of winning. Those around her are frightened, doubtful. But they’ve come too far to turn back. And they won’t go down without a fight.
