I hear to be a better #writer and to enhance #creativity, you have to take in art. So I have spent the last few days listening to the Hunger Games for my 3rd...4th, I don't know how many re-reads. It is amazing how after the first few listens... 1/2

I hate staring at a blank screen wondering what to write. That's tonight. I feel like I'm in the middle of a #writersblock. Even right now, this is just a stream of consciousness. I've never known what to do when I get writer's block. Any suggestions? #writing #creativity #art

It's days like today that seem to challenge my #writingstreak. It feels like I have so many voices that all want out of my brain but I don't know which one to listen to. My #ADHD has been screaming towards a crash out 1/3

The poem in question over at my Substack -- link here:

So I broke my #writingstreak, again, at least in public. I did write a poem yesterday. I'm not going to post it today. I am going to write an announcement post for #Substack today and then post it there and here. You know, I have lots of reasons for starting this #writingstreak 1/5

So I broke my #writingstreak yesterday. And I'm ok with that. On top of being a high pain day, it was also my father's birthday. It's been 8 years since he passed. And while my relationship was not exactly a good one, I still feel that #grief. 1/4

So, a last-minute effort to not give up on my #writingchallenge. I made an account on #Substack, but I think I want to make that a more curated writing experience. Here I think I want to write more off the cuff. That being said, I am thinking about doing a #announcement of what I might be... 1/3

Ugh. I’m not made for the corporate world or healthcare. I just want to help people. I want to help them and not feel like I’m drowning myself. Also I cannot do this weather. People genuinely do not understand how a person with chronic illness can easily break down. 1/2

Today sucks. I mean it was always going to… it’s the first day without my work wife. But I have never before had more of an urge to quit and pursue artistic pursuits more than today. I’m just sad that we all have to make money to live and we never make enough.

So I want to start creating content and I tell my husband this. He is super supportive but I mention I don’t know what to do. What is my focus? Where should my creativity go? He gently reminds me that creating content inherently makes you a content creator. 1/5

So the fucked-up part of this is I mused poetically of the death of an app, it comes back like a deformed zombie. It clearly will never be the app it once was and will always be tinged with the sickening thought of 'government-run media'. I will still be mourning what TikTok was. 1/2

I spent last night scrolling through TikTok until I couldn’t. And regardless if it comes back on Monday or Tuesday, last night was an experience. A human collectiveness that displayed different stages of grief and those creators determined to console their communities — in real time. 1/5

Hey look, a social media platform I might actually use. :P
