Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 1d

i was making this stupid chart for my ocs (as one does) and added the parentheticals just so I could put essie as dominant lol. She's not sexually dominant but personality wise... wooo boy.

#SumLuv The Only Seconds that Matter is about the complex relationship between a trans horse trainer hungry for companionship and a good ole boy ex-rodeo rider seeking answers to his problems at the bottom of a bottle. (Available on Amazon and Kobo). Quote is a silly one one, lol.

Book cover: The Only Seconds that Matter by Wanda Walker. Johnny is aboard a bucking bronc, Victor is standing along the arena gate watching.

Johnny Stearns, a guy in a cowboy hat and rodeo chaps, holding a bridle

Victor Ortiz Bennet, standing with his back to the viewer, holding the head of his horse Blitz.

“This whole situation is just…” Johnny trailed off, then rubbed his face with a hand. His lips were slightly swollen, and Victor had to clench and unclench his fists to resist the urge to kiss him again. Johnny opened his mouth to speak, but his phone went off in his back pocket, and he fumbled to grab it. When he answered, the voice on the other line was loud enough to be heard even without being in speaker mode.
“Where the fuck are you? It’s been like half an hour since you ditched us,” came Sarah’s irritated voice.
“Oh, ah, I went to check in with Vic. I told you that.”
Great. Now Sarah knew Victor was queer, too. Victor just had to hope she wasn’t a gossip. It wasn’t like they shared the same social circles, but she did probably know Johnny’s sister.
“What are you two doing, sucking each other off? The rodeo’s over and I’m waiting by my car for you.”
Johnny pressed his lips tightly together as Victor snorted and hid his mouth behind a hand to muffle his laughter.
“I’ll be there in five minutes,” Johnny promised, sharing a smirk with Victor.
“Better be. It’s getting cold out here.” Sarah ended the call, and Johnny chuckled.
“I think she may be on to me,” Johnny said.

if you are willing to alter your clothing, you can turn the tiny shitty pockets they give you in women's jeans into huge pockets, as I did with these pants I bought last year. Again, the sky is the limit as long as you have a a little bit of know how and a machine. Sewing is fundamental kids.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 1d

You can't find decent clothes at the thrift store unless you're willing to alter them. Found a really nice shirt with french seams that was likely given up because the seams were coming apart. Easy fix. Taking in the waist on these denim shorts, however... more difficult. Machine was not happy lol

For Season of Blossoms, Anli doesn't know SHE is gay and Thyla doesn't know that she is either. Lisanth thinks Jafkar's just a random guy, and Jafkar's in too deep to tell him he's actually a prince. Ysaika is married to the world's worst person and doesn't think they're worthy of love.

#Sumluv For The Only Seconds that Matter, Victor doesn't know that Johnny's bisexual and Johnny doesn't know that Victor's gay (or trans). They figure it out once they each show up at the same queer rodeo.

Cover says WANDA WALKER; The Only Seconds that Matter. It depicts a cowboy on a bucking bronc being watched by another cowboy by a fence.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 3d

is this AI or something? Or maybe it's a buffalo with dwarfism? Cuz it looks way too wide and stout to be a baby water buffalo.

A new chapter of What We Die For is up! Mikayel gets ready to come to the rescue while Erich faces down his likely death. www.patreon.com/wanda_walker... More info on my Nazi-hunting vampire story: wandawalkerwrites.wordpress.com/what-we-die-...

more often than not people just want to take pictures of them

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

10/10 no notes except that they forgot to put the balls on the horse, which i believe is a very important part of this style of statue.

erich: *thinking beautifully and fondly of his dead boyfriend before he dies* mikayel: oh fuck shit I have to call my ex-girlfriend who hates me this fucking SUCKS dude

Mikayel still had Zeinab’s phone number in his phone, though he’d renamed it DO NOT CALL HER YOU FUCKING IDIOT after she tore him a new one last time he’d called her depressed and lonely. That was fifteen years ago, but still—he didn’t think Zeinab thought any more fondly of him now than she did back then. That said, she was an incredible hunter with sharp instincts, and he could swallow his ego if it meant saving his own skin. He just hoped she picked up when he tapped the call icon.
One ring. Two. Three. Four. At least her phone was on. He could imagine her looking at his number, contemplating whether it was worth it. Five. Maybe she was thinking about the time he interrupted their anniversary dinner to track down a fledgling nearby. Six. Or the time he took a risk on chasing down several fledglings on his own against her advice and nearly got his head bitten off. She had to nurse him back to health for a week after that snafu. Seven.
Finally a click and then her smoky voice with its light Persian accent: “You better be dying in a hospital right now to be calling me.”
“Oh my God, you actually picked up.” He realized he probably had four seconds before she hung up on him. “I am not in a hospital, no, but this is sort of a life or death situation for a friend of mine, and I need your help.”

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

🥲

The silence of the space had returned, and Erich slouched over, head still spinning, nausea building. Suddenly the urge to vomit seized him, and he heaved several times. He hadn’t expected anything to actually come up, but then a thin stream of bloody spittle did, and with it, the pendant he’d swallowed upon his kidnapping. He stared at it for a moment, then dropped his head down to the lumber slabs below, the exhaustion overwhelming him. Around him, the space was brightening, tinged with a soft orange glow.
“Oh Heinrich, mein Sonnenschein, we will meet soon” he murmured gently in the quiet. “If there is an afterlife and I see you there, I hope you will forgive me for all that I have done.”

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

the least shocking thing about these dudes is that they're so financially illiterate that they can't stay solvent.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

anyway I drew a pic of this once because I was like "which pair of nipples do you think centaur babies use to breastfeed." good to know that people would think this concept perverted.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

i made some posts for instagram cuz I'm tired of seeing the "I'm a six figure author and this is how I did it" posts. I'm failmaxxing, as we all should.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

giving people free stuff rules! :3 The books I raffled off were sent out last week and received! With them came a handwritten note from me as well as 2 custom bookmarks. I kinda wanna raffle off more. Shipping costs are pretty low within the US if it's a book (like, $5).

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

here are two that are bronze or jade that are both 2000 years old. Also I see people claiming the greeks used bread??? idk that seems weird to me.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 5d

also those things are huge and bulky and rattle like they're about to fall apart. I guess the benefit is that no one can do street racing on them. but god, does the experience of renting them beat my one experience with Lime bikes, holy shit.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 6d

pet ownership is when they're just sleeping and you're so overcome with affection that you have to photograph them. look at this precious creature. he is perfect.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 6d

Also, Touch of Magic would be so easy to put in the modern day. Elleri's an asshole CEO who expects perfection, Kaius is a temp in need of money serving as her personal assistant. That shit writes itself.

#SumLuv I like to think about if my Season of Blossoms characters were set in a more modern fantasy setting with cars and cellphones. Mithleem would be a respected surgeon and army veteran. Anli would be getting a PhD in botany or something. Lisanth would be unemployed lol.

Three tieflings--left is a man with pink skin, middle is a woman with green skin (she has a cane) and the left is a man with blue skin.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 7d

I just cannot figure out this Eldredge Two Spool, and I'm prepared to either get rid of it or take it to a repair person so he can spend 3 hours fucking around with it, lol. It pisses me off because I spent so much time fixing it up and making it look nice and yet it cannot make a stitch.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 7d

i need authors to pull it to-fuckin-gether. the purpose of a 2 star review has nothing to do with you. it's an expression of an opinion of a customer. If you think reviews are to make you personally feel smaller and quieter, that's a you issue. Go to therapy.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 7d

#Sumluv My main subgenre is fantasy, I suppose. I just fucking love worldbuilding. I love crafting worlds built specifically to enable one kind of sex scenario lol. I mean sure I may have given Elleri telekinesis magic for normal reasons, but there are sexy ones too.

i need a skit where the police break in to arrest a man for fucking and it turns out it's just him and another guy and the police are like oh sorry our bad we thought you were straight.

Between both straight people and gay people?

In theory. But weirdly, the queer community does not seem very pressed by the no-sex mandate. Quintessa Swindell, who plays Monica Barbaro’s roommate, tells Barbaro’s character early on that she isn’t planning to go out on the One Night: “Tonight is for the straights,” she explains. “We’ve been dancing around your laws since before the Bible.”

So gay people just… ignore the mandate?

Apparently.

How?

Nobody knows.

And the authoritarian, pro-marriage, pronatalist, presumably not-exactly-Pride-flag-waving government is fine with this?

Somehow, yes.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 8d

i laughed out loud so many times reading this lol. this in particular... oh my god

In fact, the horseshoe-theory thesis of One Night Only seems to be that the mandate is actually doing more good than harm. “I really thought this whole thing was gonna ruin sex for me,” a sexy singer played by Charlie Gillespie tells Barbaro’s Allie near the end of the movie. “They kind of did. But at the same time, it gave it new meaning. Who do you choose to be with for this one night? Choice itself is romantic. Maybe the fascists were right about this one.”

He says “maybe the fascists were right about this one”?!

He does. Shortly afterwards, he falls headfirst off a grand piano, so maybe take that with a grain of salt. But the movie does end with Allie and Turner’s Owen deciding that instead of having sex, they should spend a year really getting to know each other, then have sex during next year’s One Night.

Wanda Walker@wandawalker· 9d

Arranged marriage in fiction is basically just a Get Along Shirt. I loooove it. Yes please show me the long and difficult process of two very different people having to learn how to not just live together but actually respect and love one another.
