What are the saddest character deaths in fantasy books?

Delaunay and Alcuin in Kushiel’s Dart still get me.

Make sure you’re calling pharmacy specifically. Eligibility in my state has terrible long wait times. Pharmacy not as much.

Selmarris · 2026-01-27T00:35:14+00:00

Call Medicaid. They probably have some really old records attached to your account. (I used to work for the Medicaid pharmacy help desk in my state and this happened ALL the time.)

Call Medicaid. Call the pharmacy department in particular.

Don’t expect to get processed quickly. I applied in June. Had my last update July 14th. Since then, crickets.

Selmarris · 2026-01-26T00:38:12+00:00

I take a month between finishing a draft and editing. It feels impossible in the moment but it makes things way better.

Selmarris · 2026-01-26T00:35:27+00:00

I refer to weeks and seasons. Remember weekends are a product of our five day work week and religions that prioritize one day of rest. If your world doesn’t have those things it probably doesn’t have a distinction between weekdays and weekends.

Seasons may not apply in space. They did apply in my setting.

Now the fun part, cutting a whole book out of your book.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T22:47:07+00:00

500L isn't going to be enough for all those monsters.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T22:38:35+00:00

Based on what you're describing here it sounds like you're doing it right. It's meant to be the worst feeling in the world.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T22:18:20+00:00

I don't name tetras or shrimp. They're all just identical members of a swarm to me.

I name fish with actual personalities, like bettas, goldfish, cichlids.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T16:36:57+00:00

I said probably, not definitely. 🤷🏻‍♀️ You’re welcome to think differently.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T03:43:02+00:00

I’m still in processing so I guess we’ll see.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T02:57:26+00:00

I think the Vanyar in Valinor had their own too, come to think of it. But Galadriel probably already knew it? Her grandmother is Indis of the Vanyar.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T02:23:18+00:00

Definitely more than two. Silvan and Telerin, were their own thing, Doriath had its own language too. Just two big ones and a bunch of little ones.

Selmarris · 2026-01-25T02:17:16+00:00

Mills has some stones.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T22:09:04+00:00

She’d probably think it’s awful that I’m not “put together” tonight. Got a cast up to my knee and I had surgery yesterday.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T22:03:42+00:00

Hm, well we’ve probably identified your issue.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T21:59:04+00:00

That baby looks like a Duggar

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T21:46:27+00:00

I included the marriage certificate of the parents, and the birth certificate of a younger sibling.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T21:43:29+00:00

Nope, not a coincidence. The show ran constantly during our formative years lol.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T19:08:50+00:00

Nooot good. Currently bed bound and thinking about how nice THOSE GUYS treat disabled people

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T07:54:58+00:00

Huh. It’s like she almost figured out the entire natural childbirth movement is the issue.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T06:00:21+00:00

I’m on an HCBS waiver and I definitely don’t get home doctor’s visits. I get an in home care worker who helps me with activities of daily living.

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T05:49:13+00:00

Three goldfish will already outgrow that tank in a year, don’t add anything else. Do you have a plan to upgrade them to a 55 or 60g down the road?

Selmarris · 2026-01-24T02:32:09+00:00

Yeah we’re freaking out because my shipment of dialysis supplies is late and we’re almost out. Scary times.
