Been wanting to get more into the #WritingCommunity, so I thought I’d do a thread on the book I currently #amquerying—A War for Hope.

Welcome to Xandos, a world where Gods walk among people, and their thousand-year-old feuds threaten to decimate humankind. #WriterLift

@CraigisSwell Legit same. Or maybe I’m running max speed power band basculegion just to throw everyone off lol

@BrewFS Have Arrow and Leniu as starting Front Row -_- obviously May comes in for one but not sure about the other. Thinking either get Jensen and hope for 45+ min or just play Hughes this week and decide next week with more information? Can’t afford Flegler (plus bye next week)

@NRL_SC_Addicts Would also be keen to join!

@nat_sinclair93 They didn’t count Nicho for Storm either. I know us Panthers fans want to forget the 2020 grand final happened but Nicho was there (even if he didn’t get on the field)

@jackomarto My 2022 Premiership mug broke this week… I’m taking it is a good omen though because it means it’s time for a new mug!

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

@Kendrink_ Was just looking at that too. Tough times for VGC players in Sydney..

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

Went 5-3 at Sydney Regionals. Didn’t play great in my losses, and probably ends my worlds hopes, but at least I got to be the first person in the world hit by Fissure Ting-Lu on stream!

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

@unironicpanda Welcome to my life, Justin

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

@JoeUX9 I’m just glad you couldn’t see my face on stream lol, I just hung my head in defeat

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

So my day started off in the best possible way..

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

Team I used to get Top 32 at OCIC 2023. Credit to @AllyVGC for building the team that was the basis for this one (and writing a great team report). Happy to finally make day 2 after just missing out in the last two OCIC’s.

[Western Weekender @wwpenrith]

#BREAKING The NRL has conceded Stephen Crichton scored a try for @PenrithPanthers against @SSFCRABBITOHS that was ruled 'no try' incorrectly.

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

@MikeMeehallWood This checks out. I’m from Quakers Hill, parents support Parra, I support Penrith

As a young white male who wants to be a writer, I feel well positioned to say that this is a terrible take. The fact that women, BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ folks are not being as wilfully ignored so that opportunity can fall at my the feet of people like me is a good thing, actually.

[Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates]

(a friend who is a literary agent told me that he cannot even get editors to read first novels by young white male writers, no matter how good; they are just not interested. this is heartbreaking for writers who may, in fact, be brilliant, & critical of their own "privilege.")

[Jesse Beard @JL_Beardy]

@PiaxVGC @chefVGC Actually not 100% if the Grimmsnarl Spirit Breaks. It depends on how specially bulky the Amoonguss is. (This is using Ditto’s HP stat)

-1 252 SpA Calyrex-Shadow Max Mindstorm vs. 252 HP / 76+ SpD Amoonguss in Psychic Terrain through Light Screen: 152-180 -- 87.5% chance to OHKO

First draft of first book: finished in about 3 years
First draft of second book: finished in less than 6 months

Not bad progress #WritingCommnunity

Burdened with forbidden magic, Lykke is on the run. Her only hope for freedom is an unlikely alliance and an impossible mission: unearth a magic artifact buried in an ancient ruin. But in a world steeped in prejudice, the alliance may be deadlier than the mission.
