Hello.
I wanted to say that I made a discord server for writers because I was bored and thought it was a cute idea
I made it yesterday but Ive been trying to make it cute and work out the kinks. I’m not new to discord but I don’t know how to do a lot of things so I was playing around with it
Also, I need 2 mods! If I’m not active then I need help keeping the peace and answering questions!
Reblog so ppl can see!

Dramatic Diary Entry #?
Oh, how I would love to be engulfed into the world. To drown in it's many layers without needing to name each thing or understand each process. To just be everywhere, at all times, witnessing chemical reactions in a way scientists could never with their microscopes. To smell atoms like bees smell pollen, to run my fingers through clouds like the wind does through the leaves of trees, to feel the earth spin around it's axe, to hear volcanos burp and have a taste of space. How wonderful must it be, to experience the world like God! I can't help but feel envy for those with sharpened senses, even as I know that those individuals tend to be overwhelmed on a daily basis. I feel blind and ignorant for experiencing slower and less than others do, but I do appreciate the calm that comes with it. It's only when that turns to numbness that I feel that shame again. As though I am to be punished for 'not experiencing the world in the right way' or 'not deeply enough'. I don't feel like my hobbies excite me the way they would others. But if I killed God and became one myself, as Dostoyevsky suggests, then that would change. I would be everywhere, at all times.
I would experience it all.

WIP (Work in Progress) Theme Tag
So I have been tagged and now need to learn how to bold things. So here I am on my desktop instead of my tablet so that I can actually see my options. Rules: bold the themes that appear in your WIP and italicize those that appear loosely
I’ll do my Portae Inter Nos series. My 2nd one, Iter Liberti, will be maybe 60% similar. It’s not out yet so. The Portae Inter Nos series is out for novellas 1-4 and I’m still working on 5 and 6.
addiction | beauty I betrayal | change vs. tradition | chaos vs. order | circle of life | coming of age I communication | convention vs. rebellion | corruption | courage | crime and law | dangers of ignorance | darkness and light | death | desire to escape | dreams | displacement | empowerment | facing darkness I facing reality I faith vs. doubt | fall from grace I fame and fortune I family | fate | fear | fear of failure | free will I friendship | fulfillment | good vs. bad I government | greed I guilt and forgiveness | hard work I heroism | hierarchy | honesty I hope | identity crisis | immortality | independence | individual vs. society I inner vs. outer strength I innocence I injustice I isolation | knowledge vs. ignorance | life | loneliness I lost love | love | man vs. nature | manipulation I materialism | motherhood | nature | nature vs. nurture I oppression | optimism | peer pressure I poverty I power | power of words | prejudice | pride | progress | quest | racism | rebirth | relationships | religion I responsibility | revenge | sacrifice | secrets | self-awareness | self-preservation | self-reliance | sexuality | social class structure | survival | technology I temptation and destruction | time I totalitarianism I weakness | vanity | war | wealth | wisdom of experience I youth
So that was not as exciting as I thought. Turns out this would have been much better for my 2nd series and everything from 1 applies except love. My 1st series is just light. Friends, siblings, romantic couples being sent to other dimensions and time lines or getting sucked into alternate dimensions by accident. And a bunch of akwardness in one of my couples as they deal with expressing their emotions and desires. Anyway, this was still kind of cool. It just didn’t suit my first series much 
Oh ya, umm I don’t know who to tag. Apparently someone else I follow writes too but I’m blanking. So open tag. If you see this and want to do it, then I tag you.

I am just a simple girl, take me to a bookstore and I will tell you about each book I have read, about my tbr, about the genres, and will probably give you 100+ recommendations even if you haven't asked for.

I gaze into the night sky and wonder where I’ve seen similar darkness; an empty abyss, so dark not even stars shine through. Its inky color seems to contort into itself, something I would compare to self-destruction.
i. I’ve seen your heart and it pumps toxic fluids like a disease, unfortunately there is no cure.

Dramatic Diary Entry #? TW: anxiety
Breathe in. The birds chirp as a breeze rustles their nest, leaves shuffling like cards, while some spiral out into a wind stream, through wet streets reflecting neon lights and echoing the blares of cars, taking drops of rain along the way. The leaves still married to their wood sink, slow and steady, to hang on a branch, settling back to their space in the air and a mere droplet trickles down of it to rejoin the earth. Breathe out. And so the trees breathe in and out, even under a brew of drops spilling down onto the earth. I wanna be like the leaves. To wobble in space and let the air sift through me every now and then. I want to breathe. Not to have a knot tighten in my chest, not to feel my jaw clench, my shoulders spring up, or my arms stiffen, my fingers sprawl out, reaching for something that I can't grasp. I want to breathe. Voices buzz while distant clatter breaks out of the background, the lights blare and prickle my eyes, the wind constricts me into a current I cannot escape. I want to breathe. Eyes scan me – I didn't get many words out of my throat, a smile wouldn't pop out of my skull. I want to breathe. His brows furrow but he pauses. His eyes soften. He says nothing, but I know. He sees that I can't breathe.
And still he pops a smile for me. And for a moment, I remember the days I did breathe.

* Rant about an Interaction on Social Media *
Last week or so, I participated in a poll on Twitter asking people if they used Kindle Unlimited as a reader and why. So I voted and commented. I kept it short (only cuz of the character limit) and said that I didn't generally like subscriptions and that any temptation to use it in any way was killed when I found out that some countries, "non-Western" countries, were prevented from accessing (many or all, I'm not sure) self-published books.
So the person responds and ends up telling me that it's probably due to marketability. Which made little sense cuz how can you claim that self-published books in general aren't marketable in those countries? People read there too. At first, I just took it as they too discriminated against "non-Western" countries thinking low of them, especially since they had added a site to visit so that I can support U.S.A. authors specifically. But the interaction nagged at me.
I couldn't tell why the message bugged me so much cuz it was far from the first time I've dealt with someone not caring about other countries. I've had much worse interactions in that regards. Then another thought popped into my head. "What if the person thought I was talking about myself rather than in general?" As in they thought I meant that I had joined the program as an author and some countries couldn't see my books. Oh that got to me. I had never interacted with this person before. They knew nothing about me and probably just assumed that by my name (QueerFox Tales), my stories has queer characters and were written by someone queer.
The thought that they had meant the issue were queer stories and my queerness angered me a little. Like are you kidding me? As if queer people don't exist worldwide. As if the reason queer authors usually struggle more to sell books is marketability and not the reality of being buried and shamed. Like c'mon! When a non-queer person writes a book with a queer character, people gobble it up fascinated by a whole new world. Just like with many other stories about x group written by a non-x person. It's fully marketable. It's just people suck and discriminate against these groups.
So now I'm upset. I'm also curious whether they were actually discriminating against some countries or queer writers. Or both. Chances are it was both cuz it's never enough with people to try to bring down only 1 group (whether or not composed of several smaller ones). So ya, people suck. End of rant. Thank you Tumblr for letting me rant - unlike a certain other social media site.
