Hope you enjoy!.

In my story the parents are all still alive, but they're part of the problem.
Kinda like my real life, actually
Hello everyone, I'm trying to actually build a platform beyond just occasional social media posts.
This is the kind of topic I haven't seen anyone else talk about, so here's my take. I'd appreciate you checking it out!

At least for me, they're all in the same world.
Same
My fellow Cishet white dudes: It's going to be very easy to put our heads in the sand the next two years and just look away for our own well being and sanity. But we can't just look away. Our trans friends need us. Our queer friends need us. The women in our lives need us. They can't win this alone.
A juxtaposition of two images. Top: Elon Musk is depicted giving a Nazi salute. He is wearing a suit and standing behind a podium, which has the Presidential seal of the United States upon it. The background is a backdrop of the American flag with stars. Bottom: An animated robot know as the DC Heroes character "GI Robot" is shown wearing a military helmet and a military-style coat. The background of this image has a purple-toned gradient with vertical stripes that give the impression of light or a stage lighting effect. The number "2" is visible on the helmet.
A couple writer memes I made for Threads
Well, I thought I was mostly a pantser, so I'm trying the plotting method.
I wrote out a plot of my first chapter in *as much detail as possible* and...
Guys, its over 500 words. The outline is over 500 words!
Healthy eating habits? What are those?
Oh dang. Still haven't quite gotten up to where I want to be as far as words per day, but I thought I was around 54k total when I'm actually over 56k.
I didn't start writing for political reasons, but in both writing and real life, I've become progressively...
"Don't you find it strange that your town has wells dug at every intersection with bright lamps hanging from them?"
"Not at all. We like our streets well-lit."
I have a whole list of "I'm not sure I could write that kind of book, but I'd love to try someday" which now includes eldritch horror
The blessing of the fantasy writer is to be able to come up with a world full of limitless stories.
The curse of the fantasy writer is to be unable to tell them all.
#writing #fantasy
After struggling to write for most of the year, I finally had one of those sessions that felt like divine inspiration, where there was emotion that the words flowed.
We've seen dwarves be portrayed as "sturdy and serious" so often in fantasy it's pretty much assumed.
But what if we went the other way? Leaning into the crafting nature and make them super ADHD like "ahhhh new inventions! What that? I had that idea last month, I'm bored with that"
It's been a long week.
Rest here, weary writer and artist.
You deserve it.🍀
Remember #writingcommunity, most thi gs have been done, it's how you do it that's the fun part.
Dragons taking over after the age of the gods is common. But it's how the dragons fell from power that will make people say "wtf" in my lore.
The point of playing Sims is to have those tiny people work out your problems for you
Completely valid
Merlin from Sword in the Stone
Everybody was kung-gu fighting,
Those dinos were fast as lightning
(Raptor squacks)
And when it starts to reach the top, they pay for an add-on to make it taller
Sounds like a real ripoff
Tis the dream
I knew this would be here.
Huh, I didn't know other people did that. I usually justify it as being thirsty while drinking soda or coffee and knowing those won't help.
