Your characters get one completely ordinary day with no villains, quests, murders, wars, prophecies, romantic disasters, or impending apocalypses. How do they spend it?<br/><br/>My current story&#39;s pretty low drama after the opening scene - it has days like this. Giant goes out fishing in the morning, and on a good day sells his fish in the village. Fairy rests and recovers. In the afternoon they do household chores together and/or distract each other from them. 2026-09-14T21:44:43Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsggj5x4h4htss6hvgmeszdqwtt2tfxrt99cwmandrvjkk9ajh6a0czyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwz4lymq #ScribesAndMakers 15.

Your MC is offered exactly what they&#39;ve always wanted-but accepting it will cost them something they love.

Vaguely related: I was sad to learn that my favourite acronym, TLA (Three Letter Acronym) is not, in fact, an acronym, and nor are many of the things it refers to. <br/><br/>If you say it like a word, it&#39;s an acronym, if you say the letters, it&#39;s an initialism. 2026-09-10T01:34:52Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9xk5f3e2xhjytyfrxe0u8m0y9vlh7cgwmzwr4796tvlufredtxzgzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwtruec5 #ScribesAndMakers – 10th Sept. Our next featured creator is an acronym. Do you use acronyms in your work?<br/><br/>Sometimes. More often in SciFi than fantasy. Moral Void had a bounty hunters&#39; group called FRAG, the Fugitive Recovery Agents Guild. 2026-09-10T01:28:20Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsyx39szazyh0f0vwar0x7u68sl4kxhuf96a3f5wq3nxypugeewdegzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwld6246 #ScribesAndMakers 9: Share something you&#39;ve been working on this month.<br/> <img src="https://files.kinkycats.org/media_attachments/files/117/242/248/069/082/904/original/3a2b277e711bca93.png"> <br/> 2026-09-09T17:27:17Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsg87dwk02xhr2lwn6gwj4dqcjh46w0hhw4umddhn2xcjewgzthftgzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwaunst6 #WordWeavers 9: What secret would cause the most damage if it were revealed in your story right now?<br/><br/>I&#39;ve got nothing, at this point or any later point - it&#39;s not that kind of story. Rather, a bit of clarity would be a helpful thing, since Fairy and Giant don&#39;t speak the same language. 2026-09-09T14:18:15Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsru93erpadketnfdesjv2mvnwj38vwwdf2309lfzul6gssvgva97gzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwd93vqe #WordWeavers 7: Describe a moment when one of your characters realizes they&#39;ve made a terrible mistake.<br/><br/>I&#39;m almost ready to illustrate the part where Fairy, while testing the Grand Tinker&#39;s magic wingpack, flies over the edge of the floating Isle, only to discover that magic only works on the Isle, and plummets down to the Land Below 2026-09-07T15:41:25Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvw3a7zq94gxs8y5a75gm4qd576enhhca8jjdf8knx2n52wpmjx8szyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwszxk52 #ScribesAndMakers 7: What &#39;character&#39; (letter, number, etc) would make a great main character?<br/><br/>I would, and frequently have.

Fairy has never been able to perform sexually with his beautiful wife. The wife that his parents quickly arranged a marriage with after he was scandalously caught kissing another young man. He somehow hasn&#39;t figured out/acknowledged that he&#39;s gay, yet. (To be fair, his repressive culture should bear the blame, here.) 2026-09-06T07:31:58Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrenkxdjrtlp4g408erpyj0xmcz0v5zg9spk0zt2dde5zy822fjmgzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwrkjgwn #ScribesAndMakers 6—Have you ever listened to an audiobook where the reader had a good voice, but not the &#39;right&#39; voice?<br/><br/>No. I think this could happen if I listened to an audiobook of a book (or in a series) that I was already familiar with - like when somebody makes a movie adaptation and the actor isn&#39;t at all how I imagined them - but I haven&#39;t ever done that. 2026-09-06T07:22:08Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsx54cnfmgqxuykvncng8n0cd6p99uqsvtvyyjfr6pnh645sh5yd0szyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwr4tswn #ScribesAndMakers 5. From a purely aesthetic standpoint, what is your favourite colour of ice cream?<br/><br/>My whole life, I&#39;ve struggled with favourites, and wondered why people always ask me about them. Do other people go around ranking everything? What are the criteria for their ranking systems? What&#39;s the purpose of determining a favourite movie, colour, food, Simpsons character? Purpose would obviously be important when determining the criteria. I wouldn&#39;t even know where to start. 2026-09-05T07:49:27Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0w772nm26882wx3um454vxwyphhqqunzs4v0pxnrclls2zp0mtmczyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwk4n0te #WordWeavers 4. What seemingly insignificant object in your story carries a lot of emotional weight?<br/><br/>I don&#39;t have anything like that in my current story. The significance of the one emotionally weighted object is a loudly spoken metaphor. (Fairy&#39;s wings, his only connection to his homeland with its prejudices about his sexuality, are cut off by Giant to save him from drowning.)<br/><br/>EDIT: I should point out that the wings are a magical artifact he wears, not part of his body. 2026-09-04T04:02:16Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqspkdncjeg2kxfc6g8yxfnp7nc5f9yqha5nfauttf837d7j6e5qwuszyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwt359tz #ScribesAndMakers 4. If e-books stopped being produced, how much would you miss them?<br/><br/>A little bit. They&#39;re convenient. But I&#39;m also fine with physical books. It&#39;s the words that matter to me. 2026-09-04T03:48:35Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsggds30nrwgzrm27aum0lewcftnsm77cyukzf0ng6qgu64add6f3czyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwe4hvae #WordWeavers 31. What&#39;s one thing you hope readers remember long after they finish your story?<br/><br/>To brush their teeth and love one another. <br/><br/>I create art to be enjoyed in the moment. If people remember it fondly, that would be lovely, but it&#39;s not something I particularly aim for or hope for. 2026-08-31T06:01:32Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9wvz9dpapm0qav2jsnj2v8hdsnd4ynqgezdr9urgymcz8kg4s63gzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjw6ww3za In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstu8ycgjf32rk3w5gh0a07t5kkx3wylg3ccx2hcc67g2cwyckahhc256hpu'>nevent1q…6hpu</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>The FIRST question, of course, is not always the most important. <br/><br/>But in this case, it is. 2026-08-30T21:03:10Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqstu8ycgjf32rk3w5gh0a07t5kkx3wylg3ccx2hcc67g2cwyckahhczyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjw4xqjcw #WordWeavers 8/30: If you could interview one of your characters over coffee, what would be the first question you asked?<br/><br/>Fancy a biscuit? 2026-08-30T20:51:23Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs96326arpgcsw44duyp6l58matp52rzt334wygw6p5nddxzghqyrczyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjw259uku I earnestly believe that we should ban any company that only licenses products from using the words &#34;buy&#34; and &#34;sale&#34; in any context.<br/><br/>Sorry Steam, if you&#39;re not selling games, then it&#39;s the &#34;Steam Summer Discounted Licensing Event&#34;.<br/><br/>&#34;Rent one, get access to one free!&#34;<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1kfg0ayn2jwzfsrnxk3shg075qnaa0mrhslhqgq75d6dq7cd795ssgyxt76" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Joe Steinkamp</span> (<span class="italic">npub1kfg…xt76</span>)</a></span> <a href="https://mindly.social/@Ranger1138/117156600039486448">https://mindly.social/@Ranger1138/117156600039486448</a> 2026-08-25T15:01:48Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsdy5vt47dy4459r0f7y8ra8kxqhsklmaecd8s96pwql3advl0hy2gzyqajct8rjy00x6duxde2lcr00rhu5x8ujhl9v0u7z8t4j04kr6zjwguxv2d #WordWeavers Jul 30 - Do the people close to you find your writing surprising?<br/><br/>I think they would, if they knew about it. 2026-07-30T10:30:11Z
