Honestly, one of the reasons I'm considering some kind of patreon or such in the future is to have a place where I feel okay to just have lots of small updates cause I have the debilitating need to share constantly whatever I've written but ALSO the crippling anxiety that "it has to be enough to be worth sharing"

Apparently, my decision to be silly and make fanart of someone's writing (because I genuinely enjoy the story the person is writing and I was struck with inspiration upon reading a particular scene) has benevolent and wildly unforeseen consequences.
I apparently gained a bit of control of the canon because said writer really loved the art and decided what I drew/draw is canon.
2. Writer put said artwork into the document of his story right below the scene, so now it's IN the story where people who read the story will see it (with a link to me)
3. He sent the artwork to all his friends and people he knows because he was so excited
Wholesome interaction and I watched him do all that in real time, good stuff. However...there are two more consequences I was notified of today...nearly a full week after I gave the artwork.
Seeing the artwork caused his friends to become interested in reading and hearing about his story, which means more people are reading what he's writing and giving him critique on the story (which he actively asks for).
Apparently, upon seeing the art, his writer friends got a sudden second wind to pick back up writing they'd abandoned for a few months. Because, I quote, "seeing that someone enjoyed {his} writing enough to take the time to make art of it gave them the motivation that maybe THEY can write something that will inspire someone to also create something." I have accidentally caused a writing frenzy among his writer friends and my silly idea to make art for someone has had a butterfly effect for people who I don't even know.
Uhh...I'm pretty sure there's a moral here but I am tired and have a great deal of emotions about this.

Something about how in chapter 4 of trc Adam is insecure about the fray on his second hand sweater, and how it's a symbol of his background and insecurities, and how most people don't notice it, and if they did, they didnt think better of him for it
And how Blue saw it immediately and it was something she liked about him, a girl too good at seeing the vulnerabilities of other people, but Adam didnt want someone to see his insecurities, didn't want someone to acknowledge that life
But Gansey did. Gansey needed someone to see him at his worst and love him for it, and blue did that
And how Adam needed someone to see him at his most unruly, and encouraged that
And Ronan makes Adam loud

The duality of writing; inflicting The Horrors on a character while mumbling 'man, that's terrible' to yourself.

It's so funny to me that the moment Arno got kicked out of the Brotherhood I was like "Oh this is going to be a big symbolic Rogue thing where Arno has to grapple with his anger and finally put it away, whereas Shay succumbed to it etc etc" no actually he just loses all his clothes and starts stealing liquor. Élise had to go get him.

Update:
We're over 10,000 words, with coding as well as basic editing, with the first part of the prologue, which is what I want to finish before I start sharing any sort demo.
So, am tentatively planning in May to have an intro post made up and a demo to share! Because of all the problems I've had, I really didn't want to get anything up official without something to show for it, this time.
But here, something to actually look forward to!
