This post is an invitation for any writers that happen to jump into this community to introduce themselves. You can talk about what genres or types of writing you like to do, how it’s going, what pets you may have, whether you have seen the sun enough this summer (I sure haven’t, been stuck revising too much! Haha), what informs your writing, or whatever!
Please avoid downright linking author websites or books here to keep down the self promo a little. But if you just mention the title of your works that’s fine, but try to use this discussion more as opportunity for others to get to know you.
hi everyone! hoping to find other like-minded authors here!
as for myself, i often like to write fantasy, scifi, or some sort of thriller urban modern world setting but with fantasy or scifi in it! i usually work on novels, non-fiction or poems aren’t really my area of expertise. so far my works aren’t published yet, but i got already 2 drafts close to ready with multiple revisions, hoping to make a nice start once i’m ready to throw them out via self publishing. some current events, including the whole climate disaster happening, have certainly had an influence on it, also that i’m maybe sitting inside a little too much with curtains closed to focus on my work (oops). there’s often a lot of apocalyptic vibes, societies crumbling, inequality, and such going on.
i also like to include lgbtq+ representation, and often it’s a bit youth focused although more for older teens if anything, the topics can be a bit gritty. i’m curious to hear what everyone else who might join here at some point is up to!
