Writing | Ducks | Medium-Quality Hibiscus Content

[Jared Leys @jaredleys]

The events and scenarios described in Hibiscus Tea are fantasy fiction.

But I tried to write the poems in a way that matched the styling of poetry about love and loss and rediscovering joy. Because that’s what it’s all about.

It’s one of my favorite things I’ve ever written.

@Plotwist_ing 80% of the all-time views on my blog come from the single time I posted about a movie. So it goes.

Announcing my newly reworked blog, Fantasy Duck.

Regular posts will now focus on SFF book reviews, a Duck of the Week, and the occasional duck news. This will also be where you can read my upcoming short story: Wilhelm Duck.

Now, someone please ask me where you can find it...

@cterlson Ah, well, I’ve been trying to have more positive self-talk lately. Trying not to all myself names.

[Jared Leys @jaredleys]

@cterlson Oh, he’s a real drop of golden sun. Lovely guy.

@cterlson A female deer.

I don’t understand why people get so upset. Maybe a little upset, sure. Or even very or extremely upset. But so upset? Come on.
