So it begins
My goal for this blog is to overshare with whoever comes across it. I hope to overshare every day, but in all honesty if I can manage to share anything at all on a daily basis it will mean I am functioning way better than I’m expecting.
Aim low. That’s my motto.
so, first of all, I’m apologizing in advance for a number of things. Like, the half-assed state of the website. Second of all, I’m gonna tell y’all what would be here if I wasn’t apologizing for the state of the website.
Except I’m not that organized. (See motto above.)
Okay. Apologies are due for the unfinished state of the website and for any clicky-clickies that don’t work. Also for my language, because I swear like a person who has never developed any kind of mental filter for naughty language.
WAIT! Hold it right there. I must absolutely make this clear before things go any further:
NOTHING ON/IN/AROUND THIS WEBSITE IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY. MY BRAIN AND ITS CONTENTS ARE RATED PG-13 AT THE VERY BEST.
Right. Now, back to the apologies in progress. I have mentioned I’m crazy, right?
Grammar errors should also be apologized for before you encounter them, because I never pay enough attention I write from the heart and the gut and neither my heart or my gut are good at grammar. (Yeah, no, really, I should have this crap beta’d but I’m too crazy/lazy/half-assed I like to live on the wild side.)
I apologize for anything that you might find triggering in these pages, whether in the blog or in my writing.
I won’t apologize for the writing itself. If you like it, great, I’m super duper uuper pooper glad. If it’s not your cuppa tea, that’s great too, just not AS great, and thanks and godspeed and may you find your cuppa out there somewhere.
As for what I’d like to have magically happen without any effort on my part create in this space…
Eventually, it will be a repository for stuff I’ve written that I share with y’all and a list of what I’m currently working on, as well as my blog. I understand it’s currently a paean to wishful thinking and procrastination, but these are the bits I’m hopeful for:
Again, a place to put what I’ve written and what I’m writing. Some of it may already be online elsewhere, like FFnet or old LiveJournal posts or Inkitt or Wattpad or AO3.
A way for any artists who find themselves wanting to share artwork related to any of my projects. I will have something set up where you can submit your art with full credit given, and any links back to your own bit of virtual headspace.
A way for people to donate to my world, whether it be a gift directly to me or to one of the things I support.
Probably other stuff I haven’t even thought of yet that I can’t actually list because they haven’t been thought of. Because today I feel surprisingly optimistic and shit. It likely won’t last but hey, good for #4 because it’s proof that I sometimes can feel something other than hopeless!
Shit. How do you stop apologizing and planning and listing and actually get to what was supposed to be the first real blog post? Fuck. Man, I suck.
Yep. That’s about what I expected. Failure right out of the gate.
Be safe, love each other, and AIM LOW, everybody!
