White text on a black background. The word need is highlighted five times in green.

"I need you," I whisper when I finally stop kissing him. Need feels deeper than love. Stronger.
I can feel Red's laughter more than I hear it.
"You don't need me," he says. Smiling. Like
it's a joke.
"Don't say that. I do. I need you."
"Okay, okay," he says, no longer smiling.
"I'm sorry. I... You know I need you, too. I quite literally wouldn't be here without you."
I flush.
"I... I just don't want to lose you."
Red smiles.
"You won't. I'm not going anywhere." I sigh and lie down with my head in his lap.
The buttons of his jeans dig into my head. I don't mind.
"Promise?" I mumble.
"I promise."
The exhaustion I've been pushing aside all
day is finally threatening to overwhelm me.
I let it.
Red will be here when I wake up.
He has to be.

Today’s #WIPsnips word is #need. This word shows up a LOT in my draft. You can probably see why just by this scene… lol.

Gielle's been part of the Royal Ballet since she was six, so dancing skills are a definite part of her character.

This battles been raging for Glass's entire life, so she's pretty well prepared for everything.

There's just the matter of having the right trigger objects to fuel her ability. Some of which are easier to come by than others.

Let's see. I've already talked about ParDafi and Seloid.

How about the Lumineye?

Humanoid, their large eyes are "fixed" so they remain still regardless of how the head moves. There's no pupil, only a cluster of "stars."

They also have flexible tube-like hair.

When you feel down about your writing and suddenly get a message from one of your betas that she finished reading in a week as opposed to a previously scheduled month because she can’t stop reading it and gushed about the story…this is what a writer lives for ❤️ #betareaderrocks #writingcommunity #ya

The back cover of John Tarrow’s A Stranger’s Guide to Talliston. In addition to a sketch of a labyrinth it shows five rules: Rule #1 Nowhere is safe. Rule #2 Always have a way out. Rule #3 Be invisible. Rule #4 Don’t make friends. Rule #4 Do not talks to dead people.

White text on a black background. The word shortcuts is highlighted in green.

"Is there something you'd like to share with
the class, Mr. Fisher?"
It takes me a moment to realize Mr. Smith is
talking to me.
"Fisher-Emmanuel, you mean?" I say. It feels important to have both names. If I have to write them both out on all my assignments and legal paperwork, then you don't get any shortcuts when you say it. All or nothing, baby.
Scanning Mr. Smith's expression clearly tells
me it was the wrong thing to say.
"You think you're so smart. You think you can skip my class, waltz in here, and use my classroom as your own personal social hour?"
"I didn't skip your class. I had therapy. The
office has my note."
"I saw the goddamn note," Mr. Smith spits. I feel a first small flicker of fear. "I don't know what kind of therapy session lasts five hours."
"It's a bit of a long drive."
"Sure, how convenient. Well I don't buy it.
Do you think this class is a joke?"
"Yes, sir. I mean, certainly not, sir."
That, at least, gets some chuckles out of my classmates. I guess I'm well on my way to becoming the class clown.
Mr. Smith is fuming.
"Mr. Fisher, you—"
"Fisher-Emmanuel. Two last names. Or you
can just call me Cainen."
"Well. Mr. Cainen, you can see me after class. I've had enough of your disrespect this semester."
The class goes silent. I try to think of a witty
comeback, but my mind goes blank.

Today’s #WIPsnips word is #shortcut. I only had one example in my draft. This is one of those “moments before disaster” scenes, for reasons I will not specify. Mr. Smith is one of very few characters I would call pure evil.
