Welcome to a new week of #WIPSnips
The word for August 18th is "bow"
Will you tie a bow or take a bow? Use a bow and arrow or stand near the bow of a ship?
Your choice! And synonyms, variations or ✨vibes✨ for either choice is fine.

Hello! I'm Ivy and my WIP is an urban fantasy/romance titled #SteepedInShadow.
My protagonists are #JudahOC and #AdrianOC and I've been working on their universe since 2011.
I've almost 2 million words published on AO3, which I guess counts as a fun fact?

I'm actively playing with this at the beginning of my novel #SteepedInShadow
Being turned into an immortal takes a toll on the body, and the scientists who created #JudahOC didn't anticipate his faster metabolism as his cells changed.

I'm keeping this vague, but I'm a sucker for HEA.
That being said, I also love a bit of conflict, so it won't always be smooth sailing for my blorbos.

Do you have a favorite variation on the HEA? #SumLuv
No need to spoil your own work unless you want to chat about it
There are some who might say a HEA is essential to the romance genre. Do you agree?

Oh, that's a hard one for #SteepedInShadow.
There's the TV show "Gargoyles" that initially made me want to write about them, but in an adult setting.
Then there's Nalini Singh's books which I adore.
And Lucifer (the TV show)

Yes! I have a creation myth of the entire world.
Of how the earth and the Immortals living in it came to be.
I'm not gonna write it here, as it'd spoil my WIP xD
But rest assured, it does exist.

#AugustWorldbuilders, good morning, friends! I'm trying out a new prompt theme this week: ANCIENT HISTORY AND LORE
This is a test run, so if I think of better questions, they might be here next year
Are there founding myths for a civilization in your world? Think of myths like Romulus and Remus

Not a fanfic, but... My all-time favorite line has to be:
"If immortality feels like this... I don't want it."
Uttered by #JudahOC during his very, very painful turning.

For eons, the Gargoyle-clans fought amongst themselves. So much so, that they tried to develop a new kind of warrior that would give one family the edge over the other.
The gorgons were born.
Now the Gargoyles are a dying people.
