I know it has been forever, but I figure how to get rid of that nasty block, is to simply keep going (And binging some K-dramas) help too! So back to working God to a Mountain story!! #writing #YAWIP

I have to give a shout out to @fawneyedgirl.bsky.social for looking through my feminist tale, and all around helping me to polish through my messiness. She has seen the heartache and strength. I would like to think of it as a tale of strength and hope amidst the horrors...

With all fairytales, it must end... so I am happy to share that I want you my #midokirin tale has ended its dance. This story was so special to me, like a lightning bolt captured in a bottle. A #feminist fairytale of strength and horror of womanhood... (1/🌾)

In Japanese mythology the food goddess Ukemochi invited the moon god Tsukuyomi to a special feast. When he arrived, the goddess produced the food for the meal from her body. She vomited up the fish, meat and rice. She then pulled even more food from her nose and rectum. Rather...

Tagging @seasianpit.bsky.social bc I did not think this exist. So this rough idea is a prequel of a fanfic I wrote, which I may convert it as a novel

It has been forever since an update for I want you is up, ever since the passing of my grandma. This story is so dear to me which I have a feeling we are about to see its end.... So enjoy this chapter #midokirin #midoriko #kirinmaru

I would say, it was through watching Jesse Cox's playthroughs that occupied me through my first job which we have no one in the store, that made the happiest for me (And of course I read the books which is amazing)

I forget to gush about #Thewitcher3 , I was so floored by the writing of The Witcher 3 (And eventually fell in love with the books ),The characters, the lore, the worldbuliding is what I aspired as a writer, perhaps I should rewatch it to get my spark back? #10YearsofTheWitcher3

The Witcher @thewitcher.com · May 18

In a couple of hours, exactly a decade ago, many of you would be getting ready to hit the New Game button in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. ⚔️ Thank you to everyone who made this launch a wildly happy memory that will stay with us forever. ❤️

Now tell us, what’s your fondest The Witcher 3 memory? 🤔💭

I am so sorry for the sporadic updates, I have entered my Writing Block era for What is a God to a Mountain, perhaps I could use some friends to chat about my story. Meanwhile I am making smaller stories, in hopes to get off my block #writing #novelwriting

'Fashionable Cats Juggling Balls' by Utagawa Kuniyoshi (ca. 1841) is a single panel of a diptych print from a series titled 'Popular Plays Acted by Cats' which portrayed actors of the time as cats in order to circumvent the ban on depictions of actors.

💃THE WISTERIA MAIDEN🪩

'Fuji Musume' (藤娘) is a kabuki dance, first staged in 1826 at the Nakamura-za in Edo as one of a set of five dances. It is the only dance to have survived.
The idea was inspired by a piece of Ōtsu-e (大津絵) art, produced on the shores of Lake Biwa.
