i've read and re-read your field notes page a number of times and it always inspires me to carry a pocket notebook again. my reality never seems to live up to yours, though
yo, no need to apologise, i know life gets busy! it's meant to be fun, not a burden~
oohhh strong relate re the appeal of embroidery samplers: haven't made one myself yet, but yes petting the stitches is so good
My first piece of writing on a while...that's about why I publish on my website. Indulge me while I self-indulge.
LOVE your rededication to writing for your own sake, to exercise your identity and freedom! thank you so much for sharing. thoughtful + personal essays are my favourite to read. i 100% agree with everything, of course -- i love the democratisation of "publication" (online) + platforms, so happy to see you using it to share your writing.
"a part of life not being created within me" really nails it, thank you. you touch on a lot of stuff I kinda know but haven't seen spelled out as lucidly re un/self/publishing and I think that's so valuable
also as a final year phd student trying desperately to switch fields as soon as I'm done....
An audio collection of some of my poems went live yesterday. I've linked it to the invididual poems so you can hear them being read by me.
I realized that I had been maintaining a separate changelog for my Steven Universe Future site...and never actually linked to it anywhere on the site! XD You can now find it on the About page.
I overhauled my links page, as I follow too many sites on Neocities at this point to keep up with linking each one. I chose a smaller number of links to feature, as well as links from elsewhere on the web. I may swap these out or add to them as time goes on. There are so many websites on here that I like!
[checks for my site...finds it] ah very cool yeah i love link pages very very cool
