Hi all. Given everything that's been going on with Twitter/X, I've decided it's time for me to depart from this platform (pun intended).
I've listed my other socials on my website: https://t.co/oGlQag7f1m. Please feel free to follow me on these.
@klhicks912 I write detective/fantasy - whodunits in a fantasy setting. I started by dabbling in whodunits, and wanted to do something to set them apart.
After a few years of poking about and thinking, I had the idea to set them in a fantasy world. It just clicked for me.
@waschbaerella In my novels, Prince Kydelt is the next-in-line to the throne of Rychilla. He's interested in crime and detection, and he actually helps investigate a couple of cases.
One is when Karis attends a conference in the capital. The other is a big one with nationwide implications.
@KCDCWrites G'day. I write fantasy/whodunnits. Mostly murder mysteries in a fantasy setting. My MC, Yaetherim, is a fairy, a former forest protector turned private eye.
@AuthorGoodwin I have a process with several stages. Once the stages are complete, I do one read through with an author's copy from the publishers, for errors.
Once that's done, that's it.
A comm for @Rychilla; an illustration of a scene from their novel! Fairy detectives Yaetherim and Naeliya meet in a tavern to discuss a case.
Was a fun opportunity to tackle some fantasy-style characters 🙂
@DanRiceWrites Most of my MCs do. Naeliya takes a while to, though. She blames society for the predicament she ends up in - going into the 'default' profession for town fairies, a messenger, instead of something that interests her.
Fairies are expected to know their purpose by the age of 20.
@BoldickV Not so much wedding as for the proposals. A Druhlashi proposal involves the gifting of a ceremonial dagger to the proposee. These blades have hollow handles, which hold the wedding vows on paper.
The idea is that they're willing to protect their loved one for life.
Unsolicited DM: I've seen your profile and noticed you're a writer. What genre do you write?
Me: If you've seen my profile, you'd know 🤭😏
Some people...🤣🤣

Eight months ago, Yaetherim was sliced up and left for dead. Fed up with excuses, he heads to Alkentoft to seek those responsible.
Meanwhile, Arch-Mechanic Tenora Perskel has her own cause for concern: several dangerous malfunctions.

@Ashy_slashee Morticia Addams.
Interestingly, if you watch closely when Gomez crashes his model trains, you'll notice it's the same two trains that crash each time - regardless of what he was running previously. Seems they just filmed the one crash and reused it.
