This week on The Write Stuff we are chatting with Mystery Writer Angela Wren who has kindly agreed to share her time with us as we talk about the exciting new addition to her series, where it all began for her as an author, what the best and worst things about writing are, and the vital importance of chocolate to the writing process! #writers #writing #writingcommunity #Author #authors ##mysterywriters https://open.substack.com/pub/lawrenceg/p/the-write-stuff-featuring-mystery?r=2agwdo&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

#WritersCoffeeClub 5/1. Workers' Day: What can we do to support and protect other writers, not only now, but in the future as well? I just joined the Society of Authors in the UK which describes itself as the union for writers. So backing an organisation which actually works for writers rights (and is 100% opposed to AI). In comparison the Alliance of Independent Authors have a "relaxed" attitude to AI, which I find appalling. ("Oh we can't be too strident because we don't want to upset the authors that use it.") Grrrrr. #writing #writingCommunity

#WritersCoffeeClub May 1: Workers' Day: What can we do to support and protect other writers, not only now, but in the future as well? Take the time to like, read their writing, offer encouragement. Ppl forget that writers put a lot of themselves into what they do. It's super demoralizing to spend w/e time on something they love, only to find that no one really bothers to read it. I'd say to do this for other creatives too. Just a little bit of feedback can be the diff between someone keeping themselves motivated and giving up. #writing

I'm still struggling to find my footing here on Mastodon. A bit with the platforms and tags, but mostly finding people to follow. I'm a bit all over the place, posting about my #writing, be it academic or fiction (mostly #SciFi), and about cool #Science I ran into, and the more common than it should be - complain about stuff. I'm interested in #SFF, #publishing, #MiniaturePainting, science, #queer culture, academia, human sexuality, geekish humor, #comics & #EarthSci. Recommend people to me!

#WritersCoffeeClub 4/29. Share the best sentence you wrote this month.

(I thought I’d posted a response to this because I did write it, but it turns out I didn’t post it, and then I deleted it to make way for tomorrow’s answer. This is more or less what I wrote before.)

I’ve been cranking out words at high speed, so I don’t really have a best, anyway you can have this:

The power of the miralin was tremendous just when Maylees thought they couldn’t go any faster, Khu would flex more and send them shooting across the waves like a boat with a hurricane filling its sails.

Miralin is the in-world name for mer-folk.

For context, imagine this is like the scene in the 1978 Superman where he’s taking Lois for that romantic flight. But with water. And nudity.

#ScribesAndMakers 4/28. Are you interested in etymology? Is there a word with an origin you find especially interesting? Interested in? Yes, I like to know how words have evolved. And I think it's important for full comprehension. Give a specific one? Pass. #writing #writingCommunity

#eroticMusings Week 48 (April 26-May 2) Setting PoV (any character): What’s something you think is special about the place you’re in?

Maylees is absolutely delighted to discover that mermaids do, in fact, exist after she rescues one (called Khu) from drowning.

A drowning mermaid? It’s complicated, and ultimately sapphic.

Although it’s on order I don’t yet have a machine capable of rendering Maylees, Khu and the ocean in the same image but here’s a textual taster. (Oh, Khu cannot pronounce Maylees name, it comes out as “Nayee”.)

The soft warmth of Nayee pressed against Khu’s body and she never wanted it to end. Only the slightest boost from her tail kept them both floating, as the ocean rose and fell around them.
