That’s completely understandable. Having your work used without permission is upsetting.
I’m optimistic about ethical AI used as a tool, but artist choice matters. I’m glad you’re here—and I hope this space treats your art with more care.

I hear you. X has been rough.
Welcome over here—always happy to see writers and artists finding new ground ✨

Thank you—that’s exactly it. Words have a way of reminding us we’re not alone when we most need it. 💛

I love epic fantasy. Writing one opens this otherworldly imagination—where ancient legends intertwine with the deepest human longings. It’s both an escape and a way of understanding ourselves. And honestly? Making the monsters properly monstrous is part of the joy. 🩸✨

Not a gimmick at all. It feels like circling the same fire from different lifetimes, seeing what the shadows look like now. I’ve always felt drawn to retellings—not to reinvent the monster, but to figure out why it still haunts us. Stories remember what we try to forget.

Yes to momentum—and I love this reminder. Emotional texture, including happiness, is often what makes scenes linger, allowing for a breath after the plot point has passed.

Stories have long been part of humanity. When people desecrate those stories by burning or destroying books, it violates our history. It sends the message that we can silence and strip free speech. Violence in any form is not okay, especially when it mutes a mouth.

Yes, this. Ideas are as old as time, but perspective and execution are what create ingenuity and real connection.

32k is a massive milestone—congrats! And how exciting to be talking cover art.

It’s true. I once read Awakening Through Adversity, which echoed this idea—that writing born from bruises often carries the deepest truth.

Best movie of my youth. Westley had my heart the moment I saw him—especially his gentleness with Buttercup. The danger, the sword fights, and of course the wit. 💛

Oh, I really relate to this. Some days the words just won’t line up—and that doesn’t mean anything about your ability or effort. 150 words still counts. Small wins are wins. 🤍

Loving the slow-burn vibe—such a fun premise!

Absolutely. I’ll take snark with a side of wisdom.

I think it is okay to pause when you’re in that place. It doesn’t mean forever. Emotions shift as you evolve and process, giving way as you rise above enough to breathe.

Yeah, that line exists. I think creatives feel it more deeply. Writing is cathartic work and is great for processing emotion. But when you’re drowning, the emotions flood, overpowering thought.

I feel this! Getting lost is my super power or curse.

Take your pick.

Honestly, I’m sure most authors fly away when writing. I know I do. Glad I’m not alone in this.

Yes! This! It’s all in the small steps. Writing little by little can build into enormity over time. ✨
