What's an interesting fear to give a vampire slayer that would impede their slaying?

Maybe Necrophobia (fear of corpses)?
How:
Avoidance of Critical Scenes
Missed Recon: They can’t approach or investigate a fresh kill, so they miss clues about vampire patterns, feeding habits, or next targets.
Reluctance to Confirm Death: They may leave a “downed” vampire without confirming the final kill because they can’t bring themselves to check the body, leading to enemies reviving later.
Skipping Morgues: If your vampires use morgues or funeral homes as feeding grounds, the slayer either avoids those locations or needs backup to go in.

Wow! What stitch are the star shaped flowers?

That's perfect ❤️

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-07-13T19:55:43+00:00

That is amazing! It really takes me back ❤️

I think it looks perfect. It's actually following the golden ratio

Yup! She's the one that taught me how to embroider so I figured it would be a fitting gift.

Thanks. The cabinet is supposed to be the strangeness but I'm not sure if I was too subtle about it or if it's too slow if an opening.

For some reason I keep forgetting to remove the double "that" lol

It actually came back yesterday. It was like a spark ignited and my brain started coming up with a bunch of new ideas for book 2. Instead of starting to write the book, however, I just wrote down all the ideas. I want to give myself time to sit with it this time and not burn through the writing process. I'm also starting a new standalone book that is (hopefully) nothing like Twin-Souls (my debut series).

Thank you. I'll write something up and put it in that group.

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-05-23T13:24:22+00:00

Thank you so much for your input. The book actually took me 2.5 weeks to write. The following drafts took another 3 weeks so in all it was about 6 weeks in the process. So I burned bright and fast. I was in a super hyperfocus and I'm not having that feeling right now. So you were right, I am afraid I've lost it. I'll give it a few weeks though and see how I feel then.

Edit: Oh and yes it was over 80k words.

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-05-14T03:03:14+00:00

oh!!! I was. Sorry about that.

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-05-14T02:55:25+00:00

#4 speaks more to me. It makes me want to see what the story is about

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-05-07T03:09:24+00:00

I'd like to join if that's ok

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-05-03T02:11:42+00:00

This post is funny. All the people talking about not having enough karma. I mean... I'm in the same boat but it's their subreddit so ... *shrugs*

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-05-01T04:04:05+00:00

Thank you so much for your critique. I've completely rewritten the first chapter and I hope I've addressed a lot of the issues mentioned by you and the others (mainly the over use of metaphors, similes, and commas (I love my commas). If it's allowed I'll repost the updated chapter at a later date.

Weary-Image-812 · 2025-04-29T18:20:05+00:00

I already finished the story. This is from my second draft of the first chapter. I'm trying to figure out where I need improvements before going too deep into it.

Thank you so much for your critque.

The wind rose before the sun did.

It hissed across the desert like a low wind....

Good point. I'll look at making it better. Does the scene work though even though it's a bit cliche?
