New member looking for authors who write urban fantasy and the fantasy genre

[Bluetopaz]

I've just joined SavvyAuthors on the advice of a writer friend. I write time travel, fantasy, and urban fantasy. I would love to be part of a forum in those genres. I'm looking for someone to trade critiques and brainstorm with someone who writes in the same genres I do. I've done this in the past and found it to be very helpful. I've been writing for over ten years and spent some time with an indie publisher before self-publishing. I have several WIPs and I want to finish them and move on to something else.

Thanks for the opportunity.

Here's my bio:

Susan A. Royal takes her readers on adventures to other worlds where anything can happen and frequently does. She raised three children in a 100-year-old house with a ghost who harmonized with her son while he played guitar and pulled up blankets to warm her feet on cold winter nights. Susan writes Sci-Fi/Fantasy with action, adventure, and liberal doses of romance. She’s currently working on the third in her time travel series: It’s About Time, and has begun a series of novellas about a paranormal detective named Jax Charles who lives in Austin, Texas. Want to know more? Check out her books on Amazon and go to susanaroyal.com for a peek inside this writer’s mind. You never know what you’ll find

Hi, Susan! Welcome to Savvy Authors. I've been a member since they threw the virtual doors pen 15 years ago, but I'm also one of the workshop presenters AND I write urban fantasy PI mystery comedy as J.B. Dane with my Raven Tales series.

I'm always open to tossing urban fantasy ideas around, particularly worldbuilding elements. Just drop me a line here at Savvy if you're looking for some ideas tossed around.

Hi Beth
Thanks for the welcome. I am writing a series of novellas about Jax Charles, a paranormal detective, who lives in Austin, Texas. You can find them on Amazon (Susan A. Royal). As I'm from Texas, it's been gratifying to develop characters who are authentic and diverse, and come from places I'm familiar with. I'd love to brainstorm with someone who writes "urban fantasy PI mystery comedy" like you do. I have a time travel series, "Not Long Ago, From Now On and a companion novella, Bridey's Stranger. I've also written a fantasy, Xander's Tangled Web. Would love to give it a try. Please let me know how you would like to proceed from here.

Susan

Hi BT,
Fantasy: yes! Urban: will be outlining some scenes in that kind of community for the next 2 months or so... but won't stay confined to big towns and cities entirely.
A draft of my Act 1, on WattPad, is linked in my (bio? About page? Will have all this navigation jargon memorized eventually) with an email address to reach me if you like.
BTW, my novel features a very impressive & significant topaz. Won't soon forget you!
Heard about Savvy Authors in a chat on Shirley Jump's YouTube writing sprint this afternoon.
I'm in southern Ontario, Canada; long-ago player & game master for AD&D + related FRPs.
I hope to hear from you when time, that implacable winnower of options, permits. Cheers

It was good to hear from you! I will try to navigate my way to your Act 1. If you are willing, maybe we can do some brainstorming. It's difficult to find people who write fantasy/urban fantasy who are willing.
