Positive Writer Philo
@philovcarteriii.bsky.social
A lonely writer wandering in query land until I find my publisher.
Daily walks are what allow me to keep sanity. I work from home and then I write. If I don't force myself outside it's easy to forget there's an outside world. Also sun. Sun is good for you 🌞

Mix and mingle the rosy drought,
Fill it with your happy thoughts.
One part flesh, one part scaled,
To behold what the tower holds.

It is better to have an epic creature that is cliché like a dragon? 🐉
Or a dragon replacement like a chasmfield or the Vord to add some origality? 🕷

"Life is a journey. Time is a river. The door is ajar."

Take the step through that door, my friends. You're always just a few minutes of work away from stepping closer to your dreams.

There are three things a Hellseed needs to open and for the demon within to be reborn: the blood of a human, warm air that giveth life and the desire for power from a willing servant.

Being a writer is sitting through the doldrums of life, working at a horrible job, struggling to make enough money to live, having your wife get diagnosed with a persistent illness and still being wise enough to synthesize all of that human struggle into a story that shows how beautiful life can be.

The end of a book is always bittersweet. Whether I'm reading it or writing; it is the same joy of finishing something mixed with sadness of saying goodbye.

In honor of dark, wintery nights let's delve into those who lurk in the shadows. What is the creepiest, most spine-tingling cryptid or monster you can think of?
Mine: the skinwalker
The way they move, the way they can hide in plain sight, all of it just eeek.

I feel at my best when I'm writing. I love it. It's the one thing that leaves me truly fulfilled, but I only get to write a short time each day. The struggle is real.
