In of my WIPs (The Nequinum Gests), similar to Aslan, the Messianic Beast Lord sacrifices himself in the place of 7 children, & also to restore the fertility of the land after a great, long famine. Like Persephone, he dies in winter & resurrects in spring.

#SFFChat Q3

...uhhh...
I don't know. I'm the type who never knows when inspiration is going to hit. I'm basically a mood-reader.

I guess when I need a recharge I listen to music. The bands that usually get my mind working are Will Wood, Zeal & Ardor and Rishloo. So... them?

#SFFChat A2: Oh, there's a great example of rebirth, renewal, and return in our very first Act of @sublightgames.com Stardust it's [𝐑𝐄𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐃]

#SFFChat A4: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DWm...

Birth and rebirth and...debirth(?) are all a part of the story I should be working on right now instead of scrolling here. Two generations become three on page one, and none of them are happy about it.

#SFFChat Q4

How about recycling?
CLIPPED - Chapter 13

So glad you enjoyed it! As always, I worried about the theme!

A photograph, in burnt-orange colour tones, of a maple leaf with a heart-shaped hole forms the background of a rectangular image. 19 book covers are arranged in two rows across the bottom. White text at the top reads "Hidden Gems! 19 books by Canadian authors you may never have heard of (but will totally wonder how your bookshelves lived without!) It also provides the date of the promo: March 1st to 15th, only on Itchi.io. The books involved are as follows: The Lion The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle The Dragon Next Door River of Crows Hope is the Thing with Feathers The Clockwork Empire Flesh and Bone Goblin Girl Moonshadow's Guardian Your Blood and Bones Winner Takes All The Flaws of Gravity Scrap Metal Angel Destined to be Normal Clipped Bloody Spade Baker Thief Path of the Warrior Prince Ewald the Brave

I'm honestly more an individual story kinda person than an author one (I'm like this about music, too), but I can name some writers who've a lot of stuff that just Do It For Me: John Bellairs, Lord Dunsany, Robert E. Howard, M.R. James, and for full controversy points, H.P. Lovecraft.
1/2

Really like the poetry of this!

In my Demiurge world, the whole reincarnation deal is a secret process. You're not meant to know about it. But some people, like my MC Carloman, do know. Here he uses it as part of a grand invocation against a gnostic sorcerer stirring up trouble from Shadows & Sorcery #100

#SFFChat hi y'all its me again and my favorite accesory is my septum piercing - its a death's head moth and I love playing with it XD 10/10 recommend attaching your fidget toy to your face

On other people tho - I love seeing hair beads?? Like I just love them, its like wearing stars in your hair

Most things are made more excellent with the addition of dinosaurs

Example: Imagine how dinosaurs would have improved Fifty Shades of Grey?

#SFFChat Q1 This is such a hard question 😭 I'm just gonna say dinosaurs, put more dinosaurs in things just casually like intergalactic space ship w/ a dino, but hes not the enemy, he's just there
hanging

Dinotopia was peak content

#SFFChat Intro:

I'm DD (they/them), smut and trauma peddler.

I wear a lot of dangly earrings. I also like necklaces. And for a while there my signature look was a ring on each finger of my left hand.

Omg! That works super well. Also, I love it as a plot element (either the desire for it without the actuality, or wrestling with what it means if it does exist)

#SFFChat Q2 How about undyingness - immortality is a concept I love playing with, my MC Sam ends up having a lot of discussions around it and infinities and what life absent of death would even mean & talks about it a lot with some of his new crewmates

#SFFChat Q3 since her works on my mind lately; I'm gonna go with Susanne Collins, if the rumors there's a 3rd Hunger Games prequel coming I'm going to literally evaporate

I enjoy how she dissects political ideology, even got me to read the Leviathan in full XD

#SFFChat #Q4 This is how my WRECK OF THE NEBULA DREAM ("Titanic in space...") ends:

Wanting both is where I'm at as well, haha

I'm down for more subtlety in general XD

#SFFfChat: I have been struggling to think of an answer here, but I think one thing is that I want more "subtle" SFF. Like stuff that is almost our world or rooted in our world, but isn't *quite* the same.

I say despite my novel being a full on space opera though 😂

In Invasive, the religious pilgrims are trying to resurrect the soul of the Earth. Earth was abandoned due to environmental devastation, and they think they can create a new home for its soul by terraforming a new world.
