#LoreOutLoud My husband, hands down. He is so supportive and does a lot to help me make my dreams come alive. I wouldn't still be doing my creative things if it weren't for him.

Oh my goodness... shout-out my new friend, Adrian. He has been graciously hosting a writer's meet-up at his house since February. It started out as just me & him. Now we are three. David joined us in March & his wisdom is unfathomable. Their genuine compliments keep me going. #Writer

#LoreOutLoud I think the first time I felt it was after a long, long break from writing back in 2022. I started a project, and leaned hard into it.

I love this ❔!
When I started this weird 'lil project in my grimoire... recording random words, coinciding with the letter of the alphabet, coordinated with the phases of the moon, [it's a long story]... it clicked for me, AGAIN. I've ALWAYS loved words. They fascinate me. It's only ⬇️

Alright, so obviously neither our memoir or the novel are available right now. But, when they are...

For the memoir --- bring your stuffies, bring your sippy cup, bring your blankie 'cause your inner child[ren] are about to be re-traumatized

For the novel --- IDK pomegranate seeds 🤷‍♂️😅

Favorite queer read? The #EvanderMills series by Lev A C Rosen. Really well done mystery, marvelous characters, and amazingly queer. 100/10 definitely recommend!

I (Holfelder) keep a pretty hard boundary around my paid job work hours, and try to devote 2ish hours to my writing a day. Unfortunately, that has led to me being "working" too much, and brought me close to burnout. I'm reworking those boundaries currently.

We're doing a lot of that with #LL&MM right now. Some massive changes are coming that, while they'll take a good bit of surgery to execute, I think make the story much better as a whole. That gut feeling that something is wrong is worth following sometimes.

#LL&MM! It's still a WIP, but it's something that we are putting so much effort and so much thought into. It's something that may not make it "big", but it's an important work that I believe there's a niche audience for, and that audience needs to see themselves in fiction.

For me (Holfelder), the first draft is the easiest. Getting those flowing ideas down is so fun and freeing. Editing, that's where I get stuck. Watson is *great* at fixing my rough drafts, though. She edits and adds flavor and depth in a way that has me in awe.

I love this question, #LoreOutLoud.

I've actually put together a playlist for TFTNG.

open.spotify.com/playlist/11S...

I'll do you one better, too. Acanthus is very inspired by Sleep Token's Take Me Back To Eden album, AFI, and Blaqk Audio.

Cypress is Matchbox20 and Manchester Orchestra.

I’m suffering burnout from work (corporate takeoverrrrrrr), and the only thing keeping me writing right now is the fact that my daily writing goal is so small: three sentences a day. I don’t always make it, but usually I get at least four days a week.

#LoreOutLoud Writing only in the mornings and the evenings. It's a struggle. Practicing other artistic hobbies help too.

I share my unfinished projects with a SELECT FEW PEOPLE. And, even those select few are liable to be culled at the first whiff of jealousy, mockery, &/or judgment. We can be friends without you needing to know the ins & outs of my creative process. A witch doesn't reveal their spells.

#LoreOutLoud I'm a full time creative, so my work hours are 9-6, Monday-Friday. I tell people I'm working those days at those times so that they don't bother me.

Leaving Ko-Fi was me trusting my instinct. There were multiple accts. that appeared to be scams [stolen art, AI slop, & collecting $$$ under false pretenses]. Then an acct. featuring child pornography followed me. Can't associate with sites that go against my moral code. 👌

Right now I'm the most proud of work that no one but me gets to see... the work I'm doing in my grimoire. It's become this 'lil project that I KNOW is going to help me in the long run. PLUS... I'm dabbling in actual art --- drawing. It's healing something for 'lil me. #WriteSky

#LoreOutLoud Recently I ditched the word count goals because I realized it made my writing bloated. For now it works! It allows me to focus on what really matters: how the story goes and what direction I want to take. Sometimes deleting unnecessary sentences is progress too.

#LoreOutLoud I went back and rewrote a huge portion of Aloe after spending hours on a certain section, and it solved a lot of issues in the long run. I think the overall story flows better and is much more aligned with what I want to head towards.
