    Listing Your Cast of Characters

    Yep, Alabama born and raised. :P And I'm aware of Ancient Roman history. Read up on 'em, listened to Mike Duncan's History of Rome podcast. As far as to this historical fiction about Nero, focus on what's plausible. Would he have had kinky sex? Probably. So did Caligula. Would they have, I...

    What made me unhappy today ?

    181,521 collective words in my Colonial Mystery/Amos story. Dang it, I feel like I'm --so freakin' close-- to the finish line!

    I finally understand what fiction is, and I feel liberated.

    Historical fiction, specifically. I created a rule in my head, or well, my history nerd self did, that stated that unless it was documented to a 'T', and I knew the history of everything and anything about the time period, I couldn't write it. Or that someone was gonna be offended. Take the...

    I finally understand what fiction is, and I feel liberated.

    TL;DR: There are no rules in writing, I am free to write whatever the heck I want, in whatever genre I want, however I want. The only thing to worry about is: 'is the writing good'. Otherwise, it's whatever I want. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* I cannot believe it took me this long to get...

    And you wouldn’t even leave the house to explore the world. The internet is so much more than memes and doomscrolling You could go onto YouTube and spend hours listening to videos based off your interests.

    Every time I hear 'The Good Old Days', I always ask, 'The Good Old Days for who?'

    What made me unhappy today ?

    Ugh, found several major plot holes in my fantasy. -_- Like story-changing major. Oscaria - Kovi has soul of a Sage tethered to her. Order and Cult of Viante take an interest in her and want her for their own ends. Alkoria - Who da fuq is Kovi? Oh, the plucky deaf Rider chick? Whatever, the...

    What made me unhappy today ?

    When I’m trying to make a post on a Reddit sub forum but the AI flags it as rule breaking even when I’m clearly not. I really hate the idea that I’m gonna have to eventually have to fight a robot red tape to get to actual shit like doctors.

    The Writer's Block Thread

    What helps me, I think, is reminding myself who I'm writing for. I'm not writing for an invisible audience. I'm not writing for money for fame. I'm writing for the teenager I was who would've loved to read the stories I'm writing.

    What made me unhappy today ?

    Well, I've managed to completely fuck up the muscles on my side, so now bending over hurts. Apparently all the runs/diarrhea I've been having made me woozy when I was doing some physical activity, and I fell over and landed on my side. Hard, apparently.
