So a friend asked me what my novel is about, and I realized I hadn't come up with a new summary in... over a year? And I'd like to think I'm better at #writing than I was then, so I tossed together a new one.
This is uh... way too light-hearted for a serious comp submission. 😘
Rewriting a scene that needs to still adhere closely to the original structure is a SLOG. Oof. But I still got down 808 words this morning, and set up a section that will be more free-form, thankfully.
Phew! Progress!

@_ADWills Storing new memories are for people with fewer words rattling around in their skull.
As for me, mine is mostly full of "just" "felt" "seemed" and a metric ton of "the"s.
@Kiraofthewind1@AW_Richey One of these days I'm going to write some head hopping in spectacular fashion, I swear. That particular don't drives me crazy, and the way my shifters work would give me the perfect excuse to do it... just not Star in her current state.
@Valerie_Storm Oh yes. Absolutely. But if I get into it too much that becomes spoilery. 😂
Suffice it to say that physical intimacy—even the small intimacies of touch or breathing the same air—with any of my shifters might be a life altering event. 😉
@Valerie_Storm She's a shapeshifter, so there's the obvious answers, though she's less inclined toward the overt actions that people tend to associate with shapeshifters, and more inclined towards subtlety, up to and including infiltration of others' bodies.
720 words today. Really enjoying these hunt scenes. 😈
Too long for alt text again. Oops. See thread for that if you need it.

the canopy was not yet filled in enough to hide either, especially not along the established trails which she seemed to be following. Maybe he should just forego landing points entirely and do one continuous chain up above the canopy. 5/6
