#indiewriter — Public Fediverse posts on home.social

I made a list of all the art I'd like to do for The Bonding. 69 pieces. On one wing, woo-hoo, great number. On the other... how the hell am I gonna do even half of those? Or a quarter? *eagle eyes shrivel and fall out of my head*

Four and a half hours of sleep, woke up irritated and super irritable, it’s gonna be a FANtastic DAY!!! At least it’s my Friday, I guess…Guzzling down an energy drink (Monster’s Strawberry Lemonade flavor. It’s good, despite all the proud USA imagery…) and ready to work on outlining the last chapter for the 3rd volume of my series. Still pondering over what I should be writing weekly while continuing with this big undertaking. Whelp, hope your day’s been better than my mood.

Head over to Substack for my latest post! It's got some of my thoughts and struggling with coming up with these posts...and an idea for a solution. Tell me what you think. There's also a link to my book sale, and my poetry book that's free for the month.
May your days be gentle, sleep restful, and mind kindled with the joy of Meraki’s creative orbs of wisdom,

Small announcement

I'm mostly abandoning my #GoodReads blog as a place to post free #stories

It was always used with distaste, but Bezos' continued turn towards supporting dictators has made me treat #Amazon, #Kindle, and GoodReads as plzces of last resort

So, as of tonight, all my free #shortstories will be published through my weekly-ish newsletter

If you want to support an #indiewriter without having to dip into you pocket, subscribe free here

A few years of gathering inspiration and information before a couple of years of writing? Damn. I'm just here feeling like I'm taking forever to plot out my next five or so books, I guess it's not that bad. Taking a year to write (like I've done with previous books) feels like way too long though. I'd imagine it's worse with more dedicated readers. Well, hang in there my wonderful supporters. I keep on thinking I need to work on a side-project meanwhile. I did start up a few short stories last year as a bit of an introduction into the world of Dark Shadow. Maybe I'll work more on that, along with some random stuff... Don't melt out there, stay hydrated, and may Meraki's soothing embrace lead you to fantastical new reads,

Two things, one good, one…icky.

It's always so exciting to get a new follower/subscriber! Thank you so much! A smile can't help but materialize upon my visage when I receive news of a new sale or follower. It really makes my day, it also helps make up for the bad…

I got one of those scammy phishing emails today. So-and-so would like to feature your book in our reading group or whatever. You can probably hear my eyes rolling when I open those up. This one was more vague than ever, and full of mumbo-jumbo talk. At least it didn't look official at all, no need for me to waste some time to look things up.

Well, I hope you're enjoying your day! I'm with my wife at the farmer's market in town, selling her amazing wire-woven works. Happy that we've got a light breeze going now. Happy Sunday, stay inspired!

Something is seriously wrong with me. Is it just stress that’s making it hard for me to sleep past 3 hours…? Maybe the shadow people have decided it’s my time…

I just dropped a chapter from my biggest book so far, Shadowed Memories, onto my Substack. Be sure to check it out to get a sense of some of the creepy vibes as well as the clumsy, anxious, main character. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe. Also, this book and a couple of others will be on sale this week, while I have another sale over on Smashwords coming up next month. Hopefully you're having better luck with sleep than this insane author. Have a great day!

I was reading an article on Substack (talking about people using ai, not wanting to embarrass them, but knowing it from the writing), and they mentioned this other writing platform, Medium, that I forgot existed. So, I went and logged into my Medium account, just thinking about how funny it is this thing is just there collecting virtual dust, and the last notification I got was from 2018, for a book I wrote about Kurai, that in the end I felt kinda "meh" about and never put out there. Someone applauded the quote, and I'm just looking at it like, "wtf, I wrote this?" Guess I'll have to go back through that piece, even if it's just to better my work going forward. ~E.L.F.
