Started writing fanfiction again. I got inspired and even started talking to a writer I admired (who actually messaged me and had me starstruck haha). I finally got a bonavita kettle so I splurged a little on some tea. So far I have tried sencha, which I enjoyed more than I thought I would, and a peach tea. My goal this year is to write more, learn to draw, take more pictures with my camera, and go outside more.
Hi everyone. Still alive. I've been busier the more my child moves around. I ended up forgetting I existed here and time slipped away from me. I don't like using the mobile version of this website so I don't get as much of a chance to be on here. I hope everyone had a decent holiday, mine was alright. I hope you're all well!
Hi friends,
I have returned for a short check-in. I hope all is well. Joey is on vacation, so I am using this precious time I have to catch up. I keep hoping to return more frequently but it looks as if that won't be for a while. The weather has been confusing. We have had a couple tornadoes in my area as well as a dust storm just yesterday. Coming from the west coast it's a lot more anxiety inducing than what I am used to (earthquakes never felt such a big deal). On the bright side, the days have been much sunnier so I take every chance I have to go outside. I am so greedy for every sunny day. I was going to post a couple of pictures of the things I have seen at the park, but my digicam is upstairs and I am too lazy to go fetch it. I'll add them to a future post.
I don't expect any replies to this post since I do not have the time to comment on everyone else. So please do not feel as though you must. I'm merely posting to let you know I am still here and still alive.

Writer's Block
May. 12th, 2024 08:39 pm I have been wanting to write more fanfiction, but I just can't bring myself to do it. I get afraid I'll be stuck, I wonder if I'm even writing this for the right reasons, I initially wanted to write it for myself, but feeling like not many people like my work makes me feel discouraged. To be fair it's a niche genre. Still it's depressing. I also feel like the people who are interested have these high expectations, high expectations that I cannot fulfill. I have these great ideas that some people seem to like but I get in my own head, asking myself can I even deliver? I don't know what to do. Should I take a stab at it anyway? I truly love writing fanfiction. I just don't have enough faith in myself I think, and am afraid to show it to anyone I know. I just wish I had people who I wouldn't feel embarrassed to show my work to.
