So, I'm a hardcore introvert. And I'm an independently published author who has to promote my own work. Two things that conflict with each other. My usual tactic is to post talking about the book, maybe with a picture or a link. Sales were okay at first, but quickly dried up.
Recently, I made a joke post about how I thought about making a thirst...

Alright. I was a little unsure about this next project, but I think it's coming together. I have established the cat, and how he chose his owner. I have established the relationship that Death and the Muffin will have. Now I just need to start adding the horror.
The story involves Death listening to a cat, Muffin, tell his story after dying. His story being...

And even though I still love this place, and all of the amazing people who I have met here... I don't know if I'll be coming back anytime soon. The usual issue of being absolutely broke.
I'd love to stay in touch with as many of you as possible. I'm tiredwriter0247 on Threads, Instagram, and now Tiktok. I really never saw that coming. But I...

My account is up in two and a half weeks. And I noticed that I don't seem to have any way to renew. I can't find any option to renew, to buy another year subscription, or anything like that. Honestly, I can't afford to renew anyway. I was hoping to sell enough copies of my book to do so...
But it still feels very much...

All I've done is the bare bones, started the account and uploaded a picture. But I don't have any idea what to post. I'm going to try to post about The Ones Left Behind, in hope of getting more traction to get it more exposure (and of course, more sales).

I made chicken strips for the family today. My brother and the kids are back, so I'm cooking for eight again. I forgot how much work it is, but it's fine. I'm happy to be helpful. The chicken itself came out beautifully. Nice crunchy crust, and perfect, juicy inside.
But that's where the problem arose. It was perfectly cooked, but the texture felt weird to...

I haven't seen much activity from 'the powers that be' in years. And I remember the site used to do all kinds of things for us members and for the models. Now it seems like it's... are they letting the site die intentionally?
It kind of feels like it these days. Unless they're just really fucking burned out.
Took a Xanax last night for the anxiety. I realized a couple of things afterwards. First, I think I've been subconsciously masking again, which is leading me back to the strong feelings of burnout that I had been learning to deal with. I've been having to take them more often, which for me means one every couple of weeks when the anxiety gets too bad...

I need something to change for the better. Because I don't know how much more I have in me. The state of... everything. My own issues... I'm close to being done. It's not where I want to be, but it's where I'm heading.
Damn it, looks like depression is driving again.
