Canadian author wannabe, is actually 3 imposter syndromes in a trenchcoat. I mostly write low fantasy with occasional steampunk and horror sprinkles
I'm a simply man. I see Ryan George, I like/upvote/digg/whatever.

Kids: this is the best dinner ever! I love it so much I'll eat 3 plates of it!

Kids the next time you make it: I don't like this 😞

I've had a lot of fun introducing people to TTRPGs over the years. The hardest part these days is trying to introduce people to systems that aren't D&D 5e

I went through a Dwarf Fortress phase. I remember reading Boatmurdered, downloading the installer afterwards, then I blink and 4 months have passed

Maybe it's some sort of literary Benjamin Button thing going on

I'm currently trying a "talk about writing in vague terms on social media and hope a completed book spontaneously appears on my hard drive" approach, I'll let everyone know how it turns out

I did tech support and I needed a guy to send me a code generated by the program in question. I sent him a screenshot to show where it would be found and what the code would look like. He just sent me my own screenshot image back to me

I find it very difficult to get invested in a series that's not finished unless each book is satisfyingly resolved by their end and any additional books will just be bonus stories. I don't want to get invested and then wait for the next book to release for 13+ years for closure

Are you sure I can't just imagine writing and talk about writing on social media and hope a completed book just kinda appears on my computer somehow?

Finish plotting and actually start writing

"Ignore the denizens of social media and go for a run instead" could effectively replace about 80% of the wellbeing tips on social media

I've written digitally exclusively for the last two decades, I still get excited at the prospect of a nice notebook and pen to write in

I don't think some people understand that it's impossible to only write every waking second and that resting and taking breaks from any activity is vital to doing it well.

I wish I had reliable players like that lol I've had a group of murder hobos unexpectedly turn thoughtful and restrained for a single session, and my serious group decide "hey, let's just rampage for a bit, as a little treat" out of the blue. At least they keep me on my toes!

My favourite kind of session prep is the 5% of the time my players actually do something I prepped for and my work doesn't go to waste without having to Quantum Ogre it in

I hand wrote everything for years and years. I've switched to typing only these days but I still randomly get the urge to buy a nice notebook and good pen

Even my plotter-est works end up nowhere near what I expected their length to be and if I try to set word count goals I either end up with a bunch of rambling filler or rushing through things.
