Thanks for the opportunity!
If anyone wants a story with queer characters whose main focus isn't about being queer (aka just queer people with character arcs existing), check out my story, SPARROW FLIGHT. Its main character, Gavrill, married a bigender person. Their eldest child is intersex, nonbinary, and aroace. There are also a lot of side characters who are queer!
Though Gavrill is the main character, he's not always present, and the story's not always from his POV since it changes. At heart, it's a character drama that's both wholesome and tragic, but queer themes naturally come up because they're a natural part of life.
This story is also a writing and comic fusion project that updates every Wednesday and Saturday!
When Gavrill Vorobyev, a single father of three, is offered a chance to reunite with his children after ten years of being wrongly imprisoned, he takes it. The catch? He must now live a double life as Agent HROTHGAR, a mercenary for the secret organisation Helvetia that's dedicated to tracking down cosmic horrors beyond this world.
Through betrayal and deceit, heartbreak and loss, Gavrill must be the best father he can be to 19-year-old Hrodwyn, 16-year-old Merethel, and 12-year-old Hygd. But the more he learns about Helvetia's secrets, the more the line between family and work blurs. And when his past, present, and future begin to haunt his children, it may take more than his life and sanity to keep them safe.
What this project has:
- Character-driven arcs in an overarching mystery
- Wholesome and silly slice-of-life family moments
- Hurt/comfort and tragedy
- Historical war fiction and romance
- Dark themes and psychological horror
- Mental health themes across generations
- Experimenntal and unconventional writing + comic formats
