I rediscovered a concept for a thing I wrote last year and didn’t even start for a “reverse Wretched and Alone” based on The Little Prince and it’s making me feel a lot of feelings.
Maybe this can be my big solo project for next year.
Maybe this can be my big solo project for next year.
![You live on a solitary planet. Your world has always been you and a few objects. One day, you have no choice but to leave it all behind.
What happens to you? Where do you go? What do you do? How do you change others? How do they change you?
[Read The Little Prince again, Tangled Blessings, maybe listen to Little Traveller a couple hundred times. A reverse Wretched and Alone where you are building the tower UP. Piece by piece. Until you become whole. It’s a block of towers, tally marks on the page, drawings in a scrapbook that is full (look into the keepsake games of Jeeyon Shim). What matters is that IT IS FULL OF YOU. OK this is gonna be good because even the concept is making me tear up.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lglyzxbrd5vgmuqg24jo2yi7/bafkreihk6puy4najldwgcf3rgqjxuo6j7ffwqtno6rwpkyfvjd26d6x2ce@jpeg)
