#LoreOutLoud Yes! A really special time was probably my writer's group in Taiwan. Everyone was from everywhere and we all wrote different genres, but the meetings often felt like a big family meeting. We'd go to open mics for poetry and stories and cheer each other on. I miss it a lot.

#Caturday Do you not see my ribbon stick on the ground NOT being waved around, human? ::glares in cat::
Sigh, so bossy.

#LoreOutLoud I have a big appreciation for the sci-fi writer, Kyle Aisteach @badwriter.bsky.social cause he gave such great feedback & advice on sending out stories & contracts & things, as well as encouragement when I felt my stories weren't that great. I hope I said it back then: thank you!

I write because I can't not write. Some scenes will play over and over in my head unless I write them down. Or sometimes I get stuck in daydreams, but if I write them down I feel a bit freed until the daydreams pull me back in again. I guess . . . I write to be more present in day to day life

#LoreOutLoud I think the moments that challenge me the most are when my characters have been through something hard & either a partner or found family offers unconditional support or something really encouraging. I feel like sometimes I write scenes & feel, "I wish real life had been like that."

#LoreOutLoud Here is a moment from Selkie Princes that always makes me chuckle, but I'm biased cause I love arcades. And I also feel you can learn a lot about a person by playing air hockey with them.

#LoreOutLoud So this is a snippet from a story I wrote about two girls each from different worlds who dream about the other, but don't know why. They set out to find out why & to find out who's the dream & who's the real one. It's one of my favorites & means so much to me. #Inbetween

#LoreOutLoud I once read that you should write the stories you want to read, so I did. But now I also write to weave in pieces of people and places I love, and things I want to comment on, so I think fantasy showed me how to have a voice and use it loudly when before I only knew how to whisper.

#LoreOutLoud Lots of gratitude and mini-hearts to my beloved non-binary and trans friends who love me beyond labels and with all the flaws included. And love to my fellow writers, carrying around whole worlds in their heads. You make talking to imaginary friends look really cool. <3

#FridayRecommendations Today I want to recommend #furoshiki wrapping (a scarf can be used too). I usually wrap my lunch with a furoshiki, but the watermelon bag and book bag are pretty great for the grocery or book store. Instructions at this wonderful site:

I like writing characters who are constantly fighting to accept themselves regardless of what anyone (or their fantasy society) says is normal/acceptable. I also write about those battles through a fantasy lens so I can engage with the injustices I see & always maintain hope/optimism too.

#WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity So this kind of feels like cheating since it's honeymoon. But close enough, right? Though I wish I was as organized as Beathan. #Selkieprinces

Two favorite ways to recover are to either catch up on books or anime I've been wanting to read/watch, or dancing to 80s music or pop songs while baking/cooking. Preferably while using a mixing spoon for a microphone. When no one is in the house. ^_^

The ritual can change based on how distracted I am that day. A cup of hot tea is required, but if I'm having trouble focusing then I light a candle and am only allowed to listen to music in a language I can't speak or instrumental. If I go down a research rabbit hole, I have to use my timer.

#LoreOutLoud This one was really hard. Especially cause I feel most myself writing poetry, but I feel my poetry skills are meh. So here's a snippet of the poem. It's cheesy, but heartfelt and embodies how I get overwhelmed kinda easily but still want to do things to help.

Monday #LegoElvesAdventures! Up in the Air #LegoElves

Tidus (whispering): Hey, Sira, whacha reading?
Sira: Shh, there's only 20 minutes left in this flight to finish this chapter!

#LoreOutLoud So this is the very random playlist for the story I'm working on about my #Selkieprinces Mostly soft, sweet or bittersweet songs.
May 12, 2025 at 3:15 PM
#LoreOutLoud When life gets overwhelming and I'm feeling stuck, I immerse myself in all my favorites (manga, video games, books, movies, art) sometimes that jumpstarts creativity. Other times, I walk in the park and let my thoughts wander until they find a creative path again.

#LoreOutLoud I'm kinda too new to the community feed to think of a fav memory . . . but my fav thing is getting to read everyone's answers to the questions. It's like when you're awkward at a gathering and you stumble into the spot where a great conversation is going on.

#LoreOutLoud It looks like rainbow colored index cards, string (to bring the cards together), half-filled notebooks, lots of rambling to friends who nod and promise that I don't look too crazy, and waaay too many cups of tea. Oh, and constant questions to my cat, like, "That sounds good, right?"

#LoreOutLoud Oo, this is a hard one. Um . . . maybe the stories where I've written characters & had a sensitivity reader or a friend look at it & say, "This character feels so real" despite it not being my lived experience. Cuz friends say that makes them feel heard, & that's the whole point

#LoreOutLoud I've read my old stuff and winced at how naive and idealistic it was, but now I see it as a snapshot in time recording who I was. But now, my stories encompass so much more, little bits of everywhere I've been and everyone I've met, and how that awe matured but never left me.

#LoreOutLoud I think like a lot of people, I want to connect with the writing I love, and resonate with the story. But more than that I want to see the people I love reflected in my writing, and so a lot of times the style is more cozy fantasy. Like, "Here's a safe space for us to just be."
