Of a disposition at once unsociable and talkative, desiring to see no one, yet wishing to converse with some one, he solved the difficulty by talking to himself.

The Old Fears, Faster
The fears about artificial intelligence are the fears about the internet, rerun at twice the speed. When the public internet arrived in the mid-1990s, four anxieties traveled with it. One concerned human contact, a sense that conversation would erode as it migrated to screens. Another concerned regional culture, a worry that local identity would flatten under a single global signal. A third concerned the limits of knowing, the prospect that anyone, anywhere, could learn anything with no curator to vet the source. The last concerned gatekeeping, the dread that quality would dissolve once newspapers, publishers, and broadcasters lost their grip. […] -

I am pleased to release my first video from a past body of work. This video is the culmination of naturalistic observation, identifying five primary interaction types that govern social architecture.
In this video, the Parallel Passivity Type is discussed.

"I really don’t want to advertise, because it feels terrible.
"But without telling people who I am and/or what I stand for and/or showing them how I look, what happens is this: I don’t get invited".A proposal of a fair distribution platform by @Stephan: https://schallundstille.de/2025/04/24/what-is-fair/

Strange to say, the first symptom of true love in a young man is timidity; in a young girl it is boldness. This is surprising, and yet nothing is more simple. It is the two sexes tending to approach each other and assuming each the other’s qualities.
[Et puis, chose bizarre, le premier symptôme de l’amour vrai chez un jeune homme, c’est la timidité, chez une jeune fille, c’est la hardiesse. Ceci étonne, et rien n’est plus simple pourtant. Ce sont les deux sexes qui tendent à se rapprocher et qui prennent les qualités l’un de l’autre.]Victor Hugo (1802-1885) French writer
Les Misérables, Part 4 “St. Denis,” Book 3 “The House in the Rue Plumet,” ch. 6 (4.3.6) (1862) [tr. Hapgood (1887)]Sourcing, notes, alternate translations: wist.info/hugo-victor/75527/

So I've analyzed why I'm not writing /Inklings/ despite all the side material I've posted through the various #writing hashtags: Wordweavers, PennedPossiblities, WritersCoffeeClub, etc.
It's about a woman acting badly. That's strange because I'm a feminist writer and most of my main characters are women acting badly in contrast to what society demands of them. This character is more of a free spirit than most.
It's the first time I am writing about a character like myself: shy. Maybe I'm balking at revealing my inner self? I write in first person...
It's the perfect story to share with a successful erotic romance author I hope might mentor me.
There. I said it. Confession over. Now let's see if I can get this flapping thing written!

I've been toying with the idea of taking one of my projects and releasing it as a sort of serial on a blog.
This is a great idea and it looks like you did. There's no guarantee you'll get feedback, but it will stretch your mind to new dimensions.
Being /Shy/ is difficult for writers, and not uncommon. I am also horribly shy... in person. It prevented me from networking when I got an agent, sold, and could get in to all those fabulous parties and meetups at Worldcon and other SF conventions. It's difficult, and crippling. But now you are on the Internet. You can have blogs, you can have webpages, and you have a Mastodon account. You can write to prompts, practice, and get things out there. Like I am.
I recommend following these hashtags /and participating/. Practice makes perfect, and writing lots of stories helps suppress the fear about starting and finishing, and having troubles coming up with ideas.
Remember this about feedback you may get: It is only the opinion of the person providing the feedback (advice, etc.), and it is up to you to decide if it is relevant in anyway to accept or ignore at your whim.

I hate how shy, inexperienced, and “vanilla” I used to be on certain life things, and still am, to some extent.
Actually baffles me as a thirty-something today, to reflect on what now look like such timid behaviours in my twenties. But then, that’s exactly what #shyness does to you. As I say... hate it.
I’m working on it though, lol. Have come a long way in just a few years... #life #PersonalGrowth

A quotation from Austen, Jane:
«
I never wish to offend, but I am so foolishly shy, that I often seem negligent, when I am only kept back by my natural awkwardness.

🥥 I simply cannot fathom that in only 3 months I have posted nearly 22,000 toots on my instance of #Fediverse.
#IRL I am a mild-mannered former editor for a major international wire service.
Surely that number is a typo by the person who's keeping track of my #Mastodon activity.
PS: My super power is #shyness. 🥥 -

If you're in the mood for watching a light, sweet romance film, I recommend "Romantics Anonymous" (/Les émotifs anonymes), 2010.
Two dysfunctionally shy people are utterly lost when they fall head over heels for each other.
It's frothy, adorable & gently funny, well written, well cast, and well made. Delightful escapism.
Free on Tubi, also available elsewhere.

To celebrate the fact my mentee, Tara Karasewich, passed her PhD defense this week (🎉 🎉 🎉 ), I thought I'd highlight a paper of hers that appeared in Developmental Review:
