- Reposted by Zee WhitakerSir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

- #Febchantment Short answer: witches and Hands.* Witches practice witchcraft. "Hand" is a term exchangeable with "paladin". It means someone who has devoted their life in service to a Named God. *Also necromancers. Who access magic by...well, the fact that nobody knows is part of why they're hunted.
- #Febchantment Day 5 Tell us about who can wield magic in your world! Is it available to everyone, or only a special few? Is it a gift you're born with, or a skill you can learn? Is the knowledge gatekept in some way? Don't forget to read & interact with others! 😁 #writingcommunity #writesky

- Reposted by Zee WhitakerTo celebrate finishing the first round of edits, I commissioned some absolutely lovely art of Sasha and Galen from The Need for Dandelions. As you'll see in the book, Sasha loves to give Galen flowers. 🌸

- #Febchantment Since I have a language for witches, by which they speak to their elements, I have a bunch of terms. Like "y'ntha": the pool of magical energy contained within an individual witch. The source of power by which they enact spells, the reserve that is expended when speaking with nature.
- #Febchantment Day 4 Vocab time! Tell us about some important terms we need to know to understand your magic system. Obviously, make sure you include the definitions! 😁 As usual, interpret the prompt however makes sense to you! Don't feel limited only to conlang words. #writingcommunity #writesky

- #QueerPrompts Farley is in a witch coven that specializes in healing and is mostly women, so there are tons of woman healers! Alcie and Corrin in particular make significant appearances in the book. The grave witch coven are also known as emotional healers, so I'll count Lilium too.

- Reposted by Zee Whitaker#Febchantment! Soft magic all the way :) I'd like to write hard magic, but I tend to gamify it too much or write too many exceptions :p Magic should have room to be magic! XP Of course having said this, the Library is all about finding the "rules" of magic so... XD
- #Febchantment Day 2 Do you have a "hard" or "soft" magic system? In other words, does your magic system have strictly defined rules (think: Brandon Sanderson's books)? Or is it more undefined, mostly vibes/rule of cool (think: Gandalf from LOTR)? Somewhere in between? #writingcommunity #writesky

- Reposted by Zee WhitakerFebruary 2nd – perish #AnthropomorphicNovel, today! Apparently, I only use ‘perish’ in the phrase “perish the thought” so that’s fun to learn! Ray finds someone she has been looking for for some time. It might not go the way she planned... #WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts
- Welcome to a new week of #WIPSnips The word for February 2nd is "perish" Remember content/trigger warnings if necessary! #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

- #Febchantment For witches, it's softer, because the magic depends on communication with the element they work with. For example, a waterwitch speaks to water and the water grants what help it can offer. That's pretty vague and malleable. Different sources of water have different help to offer, too.

- #Febchantment Hi! I'm Zee! I'm writing a witchcrafty romance between a midwife and the thrall he's bringing back to life (sorta). Magic is one of my favorite parts of the world I've built! It's based on communication, respect, cooperation, and willpower. Witches speak with nature to use magic.
