I’m always awful when it comes to an , but let’s give this a go.
Hi! I’m Monday (though you can find me elsewhere as LoneMonday or variations thereupon). I’m a writer hoping to become an author and I’m studying a Ba of . I mainly write of the urban variety, and at the moment I’m working on a an urban fantasy novel. I’d like to say it’s going well, but it’s mainly just going! If I’m not writing, I can be found doing & drinking tea. Or .

@Monday what IS urban fantasy? I thought one of mine was that at one stage - cos it was fantasy and, well, urban, but it turned out not to be ANYTHING like other urban fantasy, so I gave up on the whole categorisation thing altogether. Is it paranormal? I can only vaguely conceive what paranormal even is to be honest. I think it's because I'm kind of old.

@paranoiapen according to goodreads: “Urban fantasy is a subgenre of fantasy in which the narrative uses supernatural elements in a 19th-century to 21st-century (or equivalent) urban society.”
You’ve got me questioning now 😅

@Monday @paranoiapen

This is definitely how I would define ! Modern city setting with supernatural elements?
