  1. #ScribesAndMakers 7/27. Do you feel your creative work leans more towards reflecting life as it is or as you would like it to be?

    Uh, kind of?

    I mean, yes, I'd love to have similar happy endings to what my Wolves get, but that's about it.

    I honestly don't want to live in the fantasy worlds I create, I'm definitely not cut out to be the heroine. (I'm overweight, lazy and old. Hmm. Should I write a heroine like that?)

    But there is justice in my worlds, and that is nice.

    It's not a matter of feeling, it's intentional.

    My characters are always real and I don't write worlds where everything is lovely.

    What I write are people trying, and succeeding, in making things a bit better.

    I walk the liminal lands, so I describe what I see and you can choose what you believe.

  8. #ScribesAndMakers π2026.07.26 — If you were to metaphorically assign your non-culinary creative work a flavo(u)r, what would it be?

    Salty. With a hint of iodine. With dots of red sauce. Yep, like a freshly shucked oyster laid lovingly upon shaved ice with wedge of fragrant slightly-squeezed lemon on the side, glistening in the sunlight, ready to eat.

    17th century hot chocolate: cacao and chili from the western hemisphere, sugar and milk from the eastern. Deceptively familiar, but with a surprise sting.

    My approach to my culinary work is similar to my other creative work. Go in with an idea, flail about, and see what I can make of it.

    Would that make the flavour the same? I like a lot of garlic. 🤔 What is a garlicky novel? 😜

    my non-culinary creative work flavo(u)r

    Metaphorically (and literally) speaking, a flavor has developed that represents my Ontyre writing.

    An herbal tea mix. I first enjoy them separately, but then together. This replicates a potion’s critical ingredient and catalyst flavor:

    Witch’s Breath (cinnamon + licorice + mint + vanilla).

    It’s mentioned in the Kovenlore series, starting in Book-1, but later is the focus of the mystery, Deadly Stroll.

  43. #ScribesAndMakers July 26: If you were to metaphorically assign your non-culinary creative work a flavour, what would it be?

    Crisp, dry, herbal, just a little effravescent, and bitter in a way that opens up the appreciation of future sweetness.

    Like if you could make a soda from licorice root.

    Uhm. Spontaneously I'd have said coffee and chocolate, but that's not my work, that's me. I don't usually write bittersweet and with the other activities, chocolate would be too sticky.

    Maybe some nice hibiscus tea for the crochet etc., it's refreshing and has a mild, clean flavour. And peanutbutter with chocolate for the writing. Sweet but not too sweet with many flavours.
