What is it about creation that is somehow both exhausting, and extremely gratifying? I was bad, I didn't write today. But then a couple hours ago instead of going to sleep, I started writing a part of the story I'm working on. And yes, it took a couple of hours. My legs and back were very mad at me when I finally got up. But...

Hey, the trade off is worth it! Β Keep Β on writing!
wolfwood1203:
@headshot I will, little by little.

My god, I didn't know that I needed synthwave in my life, but I needed it. It started with a duo I kept seeing on tiktok, who I took notice of because they are a Mexican American group, and hey, we gotta support our own. Glass Spells is the name of that one. I enjoyed it, and added them to my YouTube music library. Then...

@fredhincanada I usually stick to metal as my preferred genre, but I am willing to go with whatever catches my interest.
fredhincanada:
I usually use metal, too. I’m the same.

Damn I hate getting behind on things here. I know I've missed more than a few blogs, and a couple of messages. Sorry about that. It's been a bad couple of weeks and I just haven't felt up to it. I'm going to try though.

I feel bad, I like interacting with people here. Even if some days it feels like I'm not even noticed....

Seems a couple of you were interested. So first, I think I need to explain where the project came from. I was writing my daily journal entry, the one I began in an effort to develope a habit of writing every day. I decided to explore the feelings that shaped my life, anger, fear, sadness, etc.

Something about that process made me want to share...

Sounds interesting and I hope to read more as soon, as you're ready to share πŸ‘πŸ‘!
fredhincanada:
I’m excited to read more and even more excited that you are doing this. Good on you, my friend!

Holy crap dude. Okay, I'm probably jumping the gun here, but I started writing again. A brand new project, with nothing to do with anything I've written in the past. I just finished an introductory chapter and I have to say, it feels good. It feels so much more natural than previous projects I've attempted. I really don't want to get ahead of myself, but...

Always interested in another’s writing styles and motivations, here! Sometimes I wonder if the subject is important, but then I know to have the passion for the plot is the thing, at least for me, that sometimes allow the story and the writing itself take you where it will! Weird how it just sometimes seems to write itself! Keep on writing, man!
wolfwood1203:
@bradmax Well, it's hard to write on a subject you don't care about. At least it is for me. But sometimes even when it's an interesting concept, it just falls flat. I do love when the story takes you unexpected routes though.

Okay, I'm not usually one to do this. But since it's member's appreciation week, and because of all of the work he's been doing to highlight other members, it only seems right. I'm sure a lot of you already know who I'm going to be talking about here. He's one of the kindest people I've had the pleasure of meeting, here or otherwise. He always...

Aw no dude. You clearly do deserve that love!

@tempest16, you flatter me. Thank you.

Sigh... I know I write depressing blogs a lot. But some days I just can't help it. Today, well, I suppose at this point yesterday is more accurate. Yesterday my niece participated in a parade that the school holds every year for homecoming. She's the president of the NHS (National Honor Society for those who don't know). So, despite every instinct in my body telling...

I read everything,Β I write a lot of depressive blogs too, especially those about health (I think someone on the staff might not appreciate this very much because I'm model)Β  but I find a lot of support of friends and I feel embraced here, I hope you feel the same because you deserve love <3
wolfwood1203:
@tintanankin Thank you, I appreciate you saying that.

Every so often, I'm reminded that people do appreciate the things that I do. I'm appreciation for the things I do to help my brother and his kids, he got me a couple little gifts. First being a tarot deck I was looking at, wishing I could afford it. The second being an infinity cube, a fidget toy that I've been having way too much...

@tintanankin That's actually the exact inspiration they used for that illustration, Princess Kaguya.

You know, I didn't used to have any interest in candles. But a while back I got a lavender scented relaxation candle that I really enjoyed. Then another once that one ran out. And today I was at target and I noticed this, and at only $5, I just had to get one.

Pumpkin spice scented, naturally. It's a nice little addition to my altar.

Not you specifically, random person reading this.

I can't be alone in this, can I?

I feel like I'm just a way station or something, a resting point that people use to stop for a moment, rest, get some clarity, before moving on. You need a bit of therapy? Need someone to unload your troubles on? Maybe someone to give you a bit of attention...

@wolfwood1203 When you like to help people, then do it without hoping or expecting anything in return. Many will leave you and may never think about you again. But some may return and help you, when you least expect it! And don't feel selfish! There are times when most of us have this thought "Some guys have all the luck! Why not me?"! Nothing wrong with feeling sorry for oneself somtimes πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ!
wolfwood1203:
@cerebus666 While that's true, it still leaves you feeling like there's nobody there for you sometimes. But this post was kind of just me venting, I'm alright.
