Oh This Is My Blog! I Can Put Insects Here!

I've registered for othercon; actually genuinely excited to see what the community is like, given how little interaction I've had with it thus far 💖

I have painted my nails bronze, shiny and subtly sparkly, and it is doing absolute wonders for me right now, as is the long black skirt

I can no longer be silent on the matter

Really though. It is exhausting to have to pretend to be human.

The nature of this blog means that it would be a fantastic place for me to catalogue my reading; it's also making me face the unfortunate reality of seeing that I don't seem to be reading very much this year..

Something I'm thinking about that I feel is greatly appealing to me most is the idea of "one soul, multiple iterations". Cut from the same cloth and passed forward.

Hello! Could you possibly post a plain text version of the 30 day Fictionkind Challenge? It's kind of hard to read the picture as is, and it'd also be useful to be able to copy and paste the questions directly instead of having to manually retype them.

Sure, I should have done that in the first place, sorry. Posted the original while getting ready to go to bed so I did everything too quickly.

You know, I don't think I'm afraid anymore, I don't want to fight anymore, and I've come to see how fundamental this is to me. It isn't something I chose, so fighting performs a disservice to it.

I don't think I'm afraid anymore.

I think I love you.

I love you.

Seems I'm in! I think what I have for now will suffice

Thinking of making a more well-rounded introduction once I can tell that my blog is showing up in the tags
