Happy Friday everyone! And a warm welcome to my blog. ♥
I have written very little about my work-in-progress which is the 2nd installment of my Fantasy Angels Series. It is tentatively called Dracúl. This book picks up where The Fall of Lilith ends. That is why I want to finish both books before publishing the first. Today’s prompt words provided by Ronovan Writes are Crystal and Hope. I decided to give you a light description of two of the characters in my novel Dracúl in today’s haiku. I hope you enjoy.

Dracúl
by Vashti Quiroz-Vega
♦
Good natured devil
Cast aside by lucid mom
Chase things with feathers
(Crystal = Lucid / Hope = things with feathers)
♦
Kind devil’s desire
Transpicuous plans hindered
Love born of evil
(Crystal = Transpicuous / Hope = Desire)
♦
♦
Aurora
by Vashti Quiroz-Vega
♦
Silver angel hair
Vivid eyes of many hues
Reverie of light
(Crystal = Vivid / Hope = Reverie)

I enjoy the glimpses into your book that you have been using to inspire your haiku the last couple of weeks. It’s so personal and I can appreciate the effort that goes into making sure your words express your heart’s message. In many ways it’s like a proud mama introducing her baby. You have much to be proud of Vashti!

Being ejected from your home, what, you had ideas. Angels can fall hard and minds be twisted by rejection. Exceptional Haiku. I include Aurora, the one filled with delight. She would seem to be the one who carries the Hope with her to fill up all within her realm. She lifts my spirits. Fantastic language used in the creation of your Haiku. 😀 xox

Hi Jen! Thank you! I think you would be very surprised with the way things work out in my story. 😉 It’s amazing to me that my character can have such an effect on someone. I love it! ❤ xx

It’s a great feeling. First is to see how they effect you but you know that. I like to live with my characters. Like they hang around in my head and speak on paper surprising you sometimes with what comes out. It may not be something you even thought of yet. Isn’t it great.

I love this, ‘I like to live with my characters’. I enjoy the way you express yourself. Yes, it is great. ❤

Oh but it’s true. I like to imagine them in my head talking to each other. No so much specifically with me. I listen. I hear things and write them down where ever I happen to be. And yes I wake myself up if what I feel are great words coming through and dont want to lose them. ‘Living with your characters.’ Such fun! Such fun!
