The Aquarium for Lost Souls The aquarium is different every time I die. Exhibits reshuffling like a deck of cards. The blood loss, though, that’s reliable.

i don't usually use this app but i recently read "the aquarium for lost souls" by @pelagicnatasha.bsky.social in strangehorizons.com/wordpress/fi... and i am truly... in awe. blown away. wow!!!!!

Ever forward… That way. 👉

ughghgh i miss them so much :(

i desperately need to find new cnf writer pals :( it feels like writingtwt / writingbsky is only fiction works (which is immensely important) but as someone who does both genres i want friends lololol

my brain listened to me and gave me a new hyperfixation. it just happens to be my dnd character

HOWS YOUR BOOK GOING?! HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED WRITING SOMETHING PEOPLE READ? Good luck in the trenches out there today. And remember, all you have to do is self publish a bestseller that becomes a movie and write the newspaper about it

best color ever, you're so real for that

hey not to be all corny but please understand and internalize that your creative work is vital and beautiful whether others see/hear it or not and that your creative expression enriches the world just by your having done it

i desperately need a new novel wip to snatch up my brain from the depths of academic work. need new blorbos to hyperfixate on. need new scenes to daydream up

its been four years since i watched arcane s1 and the scene where jinx lights up the flare still gives me chills

a screenshot of the template in action with my project CAN I MAKE ANY MORE OBVIOUS? as an example. the template has a baby blue colour scheme that fits the aesthetic and includes a section for motivation, what it’s about, the details, and then outline, drafting, and revisions.

✨NOTION TEMPLATE FOR WRITERS✨

Reminder that I have a free Notion template you can use for your WIPs, which includes my character sheets! Whether you’re outlining, drafting, or revising, I hope this can help you stay motivated & focused!

i'm realizing i have no idea how to put words together in funny posts because i never achieved twitter fame so please just bear with me and support me when i make unfunny posts

Hot take, you're actually an amazing writer who's making progress every day regardless of if you write or not. Creating and resting goes hand in hand with making art. Both are important. Go at your own pace, hype up, and believe in yourself, improve your craft. You've got this.

We must must must resist the idea that generative AI is inevitable. It is not inevitable. People don't really like it. It doesn't do its job well. It removes the humanity from one of the most human-forward things. Not to mention it is an environmental nightmare. Keep banging the drum. Say no to AI.

i have been writing creative nonfiction almost exclusively for over a year... i miss my novels

the writers who have 14 different unfinished WIPs yet still regularly post “I might have an idea for a new WIP” are integral to the author ecosystem
