So things are bad in my world. I have a bunch of mostly unconnected people who want to help, but I haven't even got the chuff to organize them.
So I am casting out to see who wants to help. Basically need someone to manage a slack or discord or something for people who want to help me build a convalescent intentional community in Guelph.
If you have spare chuff and like building environments for people to work and organize I'd love to hear from you. 💖
My executive function is shot, but I am doing this anyway. So anyone who can help me organize what's in my head into some cogent storytelling about light support shared housing for people with #longCovid#chronicIllness etc would be super helpful. So skills from the #writingCommunity would be great.
Grumpf, certainly badly 😅 I totally sucks at everything social, including so called social networks. Did you know that I am working on an artbook? No? You get the point!
I write it all. From a lot of original works, to long ongoing RP stories, to deep and insightful fanfiction that my friends thankfully love. I have Doctor Who stories published as well. I have a following on Archive of Our Own. My best friends (who I met elsewhere) are @strangeseawolf, @QuokkaMocha, @doctorwanderer, and @DoctorMonkey2. I have a paranormal podcast too! (Link on profile!)
My (current) writing is over on Archive of Our Own. It's also known as AO3 by all of its users. I promote my original and fanfiction works on various different sites but I have to say that this is the best one. I've never found such a camaraderie like I have on here, which is why I always post links to my stories and try to promote them to the best of my ability. I've made a lot of friends. The #WritingCommunity here feels like home. ↓
We learn to live in little rooms. In small spaces. Tightening places. With an ever narrowing gaze. A claustrophobia so thick you can taste the weight of it. You don’t know how you got here, and you don’t know how to get out. The entry is invisible, and the exit is even harder to find. https://duanetoops.substack.com/p/there-is-a-door
#WritersCoffeeClub 9/16. Do you have prologues in any of your writing? How do you feel about them?
I have prologues in quite a few Owen Archer mysteries & no one's ever complained. I use them when appropriate.
When I'm reading, I am perfectly happy with a prologue...and epilogue. IMHO someone needed a bone to pick for a writing advice column and chose to condemn prologues. Piffle, I say! 🧐 #writingcommunity
Fear worm
ear worm
here worm
I’m afraid.
I’m afraid of
being afraid
of being wrong.
I’m afraid of
being right.
I’m afraid of
being wrong
about being
right. I fear
the things
I fear are not
the things
I need to
fear. I fear
forgetting to
fear. And not
realizing it.
We look for a poetry in the disorder. The hope that in every sharp corner, in every swooping curve, in every wrong angle, in every unexpected turn, there is something complete. "The discipline of creation," Madeleine L' Engle says, "is an effort toward wholeness."
One more for this Spooky Reads September. This one is a reread, because it's worth a second time... I mean just the unsettling atmosphere & the constant self-guessing makes it a great Gothic horror story.
“You’re very silly or very brave, living in a haunted house.”
