Writing is an Act of Faith

TLDR: in which I do some somewhat philosophical ramblings about writing, because it's late, it's been a tough week, and I just need to get some words out. The power of the stream-of-consciousness essay should not be understated, even if it's completely counter to the premise of an essay.

What We Talk About When We Talk About Writing - A Small Update

(At this point, maybe every blog will have a title referencing some literary work, for funsies)
Hi, everyone! I thought I'd drop by with a quick update as to what I've been working on. Nothing too fancy - I'm not good at making a blog look like that - but I figure this might interest some of you.

I might totally be jinxing it by talking about it here, but I also think me saying it at all holds me to it, in a way.

Signal Boost - Candlelit Story Vigil for Ninjadeadbeard · 7:38pm Dec 28th, 2022

On December 19th, I lost a dear friend, whom you may have seen around: Ninjadeadbeard, member of the Reviewer's Mansion and author of the lovely Anarchy-verse series of stories. Words can't express my heartbreak, both as an author and as one of his friends.

Short-tale is putting together a candlelit story vigil dedicated to his memory, and I wanted to promote it here. You can find more details by following the link.
