#WordWeavers 2404.01 — MC POV: Write a Mastodon introduction post.
#Introduction I'm really new to the #Mastodon thing, but Her Highness told me I had to do this and taught me how. Everyone at school calls me their "Wild Woman," thus my @WildWomanOfFellWoods handle. I'm becoming used to that because it's true. I've lived amongst #wolves since I was 7 with the Blue Feathers pack, so I'll be posting lots of #wolf spark renders, like the one of Mother Wolf below. (Read the ALT text.) She's the third white wolf in that role because people live longer. I #hunt with #knives, but am learning #archery because I'm not yet a provider for the pack. I can't run as fast as they can, so I use my #knife once they've brought down the prey. My #gift is befriending #beasts. I can speak with them and they become smarter. I'm not sure if the effect is just on those beasts I've met, or if it spreads. If you've noticed wolves being smarter or more friendly to people, please private message me! If you want to. Not trying to impose. This goes with red #dragons. I befriended the one all over the news who burnt up the farm—and, no, she wasn't going to burn up the capital! She sneezed. Next to a grain silo. 😅 Nevertheless, if another shows up and turns out friendly, let me know! Sorry. I don't have any #dragon pictures. You can ask me about dragons, though. I also do #modeling, so you've probably seen me in a magazine. Yeah. I'm that #model. I won't post pictures, though, because I'd have to CW. But you can ask about that. I'm #shy so I don't do meet ups.
I was reading this Tumblr thread and then it occurred to me how Scylla is the bubbly extroverted aroace 😂
Screenshot from Tumblr: User demonicseries: I made a graph. The graph is labeled "How lgbt head canons of characters are made" and shows a scale from really mean to really nice. On the meanest end is cishet, then proceeds in order: lesbian, trans woman, bi, non-binary, ace, gay trans boy, and pan on the far end as really nice. User cdfreak: YEAH THIS IS LITERALLY IT... User hyper-nico: #shy anxious person is ace and bubbly extroverted girl is pan?? #well what if we just switch it around? how about a series with a shy pan person with a firity exotebrb aseificgi rdmsmifystdbd
It was supposed to be a 850 word (hashtag)Writever for the "Inking" prompt. The main story is already at 1,200 words as the situation progresses into "this may not end well" territory. Now just wrote 650 words of notes from my daydreaming in bed this morning. Have to ensure I won't forget the various beats in what I haven't yet written.
Not sure I'm how I feel writing a magical world #fantasy with #romance and mildly erotic almost SFW elements. Breaking into "hot" new territory with this one. Kind of out of my comfort zone.
I know an erotic romance author, though. Now I'll have a work to discuss with her and can feel like a genuine author when we next talk.
An important element I didn't mention, especially as to why the story got enbiggened: I've spoken how terribly #shy I am. It affects my ability to communicate with people I don't know, or more critically, people I don't feel I have permission to interact with, or people for whom I feel I might be wasting their time. I was raised to be seen, not heard, and to be a "pleaser" not "needy."
The main character in this story has my type of shyness. This is the first time I'll be writing about someone like me. My strategies for coping with my #disability beyond the compounding aspects of being somewhat #autistic is a point plot point. (She will be a bit more brave than I, but her [spoilers] background makes that understandable.)
Who has some good tips on how to make and keep friends (as a shy person)?
I just ordered "Platonic", a book about friendship, but I thought I'd ask around in the Fediverse as well.
There must be people here with some good tips or uplifting stories on friendships.
Please share!
🥥 All my life I've been mega awkward and cripplingly #shy.
It wasn't until I joined the #Fediverse that I could finally get paid for it.
Wait, nobody's paying us to be here? 🥥
#introduction Hey everyone~ I'm Sam, I write code for a living. Started when I was 11, self taught, and never stopped learning or working since! I'm 28 now, and wow does that feels weird to say.
Been trying out different #fediverse things ever since the #birdsite went up in 🔥s. Trying to find a new home online, and thought this place looked rather interesting.
I love to play #games, so a big #gamer. I #stream sometimes, but a tad #shy so trying to get over that. Actually do #gamedev as a hobby. If I find something interesting enough, I usually start contributing towards it...so never sure what I'll be up to next.
Hopefully this place becomes my new home. Thanks for reading and maybe following if I'm interesting enough for ya~
Gotta say, first impressions of #calckey are pretty good. Love the length of posts, and how I can mark them up. I'm a #markdown fanboy so yay. Hit me up & let's chat about something fun, woo~
