there really isn't anything quite as existentially gratifying for me as putting my butt in front of a blank page and actually, eventually turning it into something. even if it takes months, bringing a level (or even things like characters) from sketch to 3d Spatial Thing That Exists rules

After talking to a young writer last night, I want to remind you all that it's okay to write without an assignment or goal. Write to explore a new technique, get an idea out of your head, or as emotional exhalation. Write for the raw joy of it. For you alone. It doesn't need to go into a portfolio

35. How to you establish setting? Ad hoc I get only the broadest thematic sense of what the setting is before beginning, introduce elements as needed during the first draft, and only really nail it all down during the second. I try to avoid establishing much beyond what's going to be in the text

My friend @lexluddy.xyz is struggling right now with the death of her dad. She could use all the hugs you have to spare. 💕🫂 Her dad's request was that folks donate to Médecins Sans Frontières' continued vital work in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Egypt She'd really appreciate both. 🩷

I love it when my friends tell me about their OCs and lore. "Look, I made a guy. This is why he can't ever find peace. Here's his dick"
