After following the hashtag #ThursdayAesthetic on Twitter for a while, I’ve finally decided to take part. So today I’m sharing an aesthetic for my current WiP, which I’ve nicknamed Crossover, as not only does it involve crossing dimensions, but it’s also a genre mashup of sci-fi and fantasy. I still haven’t decided on a real title.
#ThursdayAesthetic is a weekly meme started by science-fiction and fantasy author Jessica James. You can find out more about it here. This week’s theme is:
Setting
Crossover starts on a spaceship, but the main setting is the planet Aura, located in an alternate universe. Aura is similar to earth in that it has a breathable atmosphere, lush vegetation and many different species of animal. However, there are lots of differences, from the bizarre creatures and bioluminescent plants to the deep, purple oceans which taste sweet rather than salty! Aura is a very special place and I’m enjoying discovering more and more about it as I write.
