Writer fostering my own rebellious creativity.

Resides in Bundjalung country
A recent tragedy in my life has forced me to reflect on what matters and doesn’t matter. As a result, I’ve woken up early this morning, 05:30, to write before work.

I’m finally prioritising my purpose, and I just wanted to share that.

I am grieving. Even when the topic of my fiction is not sad, my grief transforms my creativity to raw emotional honesty.

I really like the writing style of East of Eden. Despite breaking the show-don’t-tell rule consistently, its focus on characters and narrative still draws me in. 📚💙

Hey if you haven’t made a backup recently this is your reminder to back up your computer, your phone, and any other important files.

Ask me why I’m reminding you 😔

Tips for #writing for someone with ADHD who is time-poor and energy-poor?

I work 9 hour shifts in software engineering and go to the gym before my shifts 3 times a week.

Even with the new iPhone 16 Pro, I find myself running out of battery very quickly. It's most likely my heavy Google Maps usage.

I have 2 correct mech opinions:

1) It's analog or nothing. If the tech isn't bulky and video grainy, I don't want it.

2) Using a mech should have some sort of physical cost or alter your body in some way. If you don't have radiation poisoning or metal ports in your skin, I don't care.

@aptshadow.bsky.social Finished Cage of Souls and loved it! Is there a retailer I can purchase the special edition from in Australia?

Never really used Twitter. More of a Reddit/Lemmy user. Is there anything I should know about using this platform to get the most of it? #bluesky

People don't understand that social policies, such as welfare, housing programmes, and subsidised medical care exist to protect the economy/capitalist system just as much as the people they benefit.

It's hard to find good sources of fibre while travelling Japan. I discovered that I could order a side of salad, mostly cabbage, with my rice bowl at any gyudon restaurant, and stir it into my rice bowl. Tastes great and keeps me regular. #japan

Inattentive ADHD (the focus of this thread) is known to present as an inability to pay attention. The following screenshots come from (in order) Healthline, WebMD, John Hopkins Medicine, and Medical News Today. I took these screenshots today. You'll see very similar lists from each:

Reading Tchaikovsky's Cage of Souls. I'm about 2/3 of the way through and it's absolutely pulled me in. Highly recommend it!
