noxulousThis is hard for me. I have ne er been good at introductions... Never been good at describing myself in a way that captures what i am actually about. There is too much to mention, too much to list, too much to explain.
I am reluctant to call myself a writer because my style is sloppy, its raw, its often unedited and riddled with issues. Its stream of consciousness, its how i channel my muse i suppose. Its how on good weeks i can put out multiple short stories in a row, my mind is full of fantasies, fears, dreams, and pain to draw from and make imagery out of.
I feel like other writers misunderstand me, and why i write. Giving tips on fixing the phrasing and cleaning up spelling mistakes but i dont write it to be literary; i write my truth as corny as that sounds. I write to reach others who may feel the way i do, or like the things i do. I want others like me to know they are not alone, and that i am a safe entity to talk to about anything, or nothing at all. I like bring infodumped to, i like being vented to, i like feeling like i can help, even if that help is just having something to listen without judgement. I write run-on sentences, i dont believe there is a "correct" way to tell a story as long as it is understood and enjoyed. I write in my voice, which is frenetic and riddled with commas.
I am poly, non-human, non-person. Accepting of all entities, it/its pronouns. I may talk about blood cuisine or my hydroponics, or i might not. It depends on how this experiment goes.
I hope it goes well.

You can also access profiles from journal pages by clicking the “profile” link somewhere near their profile picture. That gives you their bio, their interests, and their communities and extra subscriptions. It did take me a bit to realize why I was sometimes going to people’s journals and sometimes going to their profile. Even when clicking my own name in the corner, 😂

Date: 2024-10-01 03:59 pm (UTC)Oh! And communities have profile pages as well! Those can be accessed by clicking the shape next to the community name (sometimes a green circle, sometimes a red spiral when an official staff-run community, like dw-news)
