December 23rd, 2020 The Stories

Those I am currently working on...
Title: Gingerpaws Genre: Fable/Fairytale Word Count Goal: 25,000 Summary: Lord Wyatt Chanafett wishes he was not the only son of the aging Lord Chanafett, who is losing his mind by the day. To escape, he spends his nights at the local tavern, taking bounties that bring him to the brink of death just to feel the thrill. But when one bounty follows him home, he has to decide on what's more important: loyalty or love.
Title: Sprout Genre: YA Fantasy Challenge: Camp NaNoWriMo - April Word Count Goal: 50,000 Summary: Book Two of the Evergreen Trilogy Quinia is on her way to the Deadwood with her friends and mentor, Warrior Ghael of the Claws. After successfully managing to find out what her magic it, now she has to learn how to use it on command. A whole enclave of pixies relies on her. But when she finds out that the fate of the pixies and the fate of her brother start to entwine with the Deadwood itself, things get far more dangerous than just being kicked out of the Foliage.
Title: The Autumn of Ari'k Mire Genre: Epic Fantasy Challenge: Resurrection April Word Count Goal: 90,000
Summary: Caes Urthadar has lived in Cazli River for many years undisturbed by either people or time. But just when he thinks he's escaped his Fate, it shows up on his doorstep in the form of Ladrael Tyritryn and demands that he fulfill what he was born to do. Because the leaves of Ari'k Mire are turning orange and time itself will stop flowing unless he stains his hands with blood.

erin 100 heads is a drawing challenge to draw 100 heads! Normally it's in 10 days but not going to be trying that one. Tracey mentioned it and if I am going to do this artsy thing, I may as well go full throttle. Because that's the Keri way

wordy That's a good question! I am probably going to query my YA fantasy, Wending, but I also want to find a good standalone fantasy to improve. My problem is that I hate most of them right now because there hasn't been enough distance!

Your thread looks beautiful as always!
I'm sure you are going to do even more amazing things this year! (Probably something to do with editing after all those words in 2020 )
Good luck!
