Quirky Monday: New Fluff

So Galavant is back on.

And so is Downton Abbey.

And Reign.

And there’s a new period show called Mercy Street that airs right after Downton.

And the other day at work, where we get to let music blare so long as A) you’re in the right department(media, in this case) and B)it doesn’t blare too loud, I found a Savage Garden album and listened to it all shift. (Savage Garden was my high school obsession. Yes, I’m that old. And we move on…)

Oh yes, and MTV’s Shannara Chronicles has become my Tuesday night TV show after my Shadowhunters fluff-fest(yes, there are a lot of new things I’m watching—it is not my fault all these new shows premiered at more or less the same time, leave me alone :3)

What do all these things have in common? All contribute to my next project.

Remember that one time I said that I have to work on multiple projects or all go nuts; because I’m just that weird? Well, as it happens, that is what this is. Gray Market is my “heavy project” and this new one is my “fluffy project”.

And my “fluffy project” really is that. Fluff.

If Gray Market  is Katie McGarry and my attempt at a romantic drama/urban fantasy take two, then this fluff Galavant meets Austen/Lauren Willig/Shanara—and a fairy tale. Because, really, who can resist a guy in breeches/ frock coat/ leather/ tunic/ all of the above? Not me. Especially if some of them look like this:

Guys, I am super excited about this project. I haven’t written something that is pure fluff in a very long time—and that is what this project feels like.

Research requirements? Minimal to none(this realm has no magic system, so I don’t have to worry about that; but it does have a class system and a monarchy, so there’s those rules to consider—and languages. I have to figure out what those sound like).

Music? I’ll post that later—it’s the fluffiest yet!

And it has Amazons! 

Ok, it has female warriors that resemble the Amazons.

And pirates!

And royalty!

And spies, conspirators, scrappy female runaway slaves(who may or may not resemble certain Reign characters in my head right now)….

Yes, a fairy tale.

Without a title.

But that comes later.
