i was wary at first to "gamify" the site because that wasn't the original vibe i had in mind (back when gw was born in feb) but it's actually much more fun to do whatever you want in the moment and not serve a fading fleeting ideal
also so tempted to purchase a domain for a year (girl-wonderlost.online?? personally a fan of girl-wonderlost.net but .net is so expensive for some reason) but simultaneously downgrade my neocities account because i only started the subscription so i could have music lol
you have such a way with words. patiently awaiting the evolution of girl-wonderlost :-)
manifesto complete; gw under construction for now; love you all dearly; see you soon
I enjoyed reading this & really resonated with it.. I love how much thought you put behind what you want your creations to speak about,, also cool tattoo!
girl wonderlost (shrine keeper, epithet bestowed to me by reliquia and ancientcrypt.neocities.org/epithet) is feeling called to ponderosa pine forests. i think to enact my vision because i cannot draw/animate, going to utilize google earth in some capacity for some scenes.
has anyone been to ochoco national forest? https://earth.google.com/web/search/ochocho+n/@44.26340932,-120.4600592,1735.46862241a,0d,60y,105.16669091h,65.12394761t,0r/data=CiwiJgokCQAAAAAAAAAAEQAAAAAAAAAAGQAAAAAAAAAAIQAAAAAAAAAAQgIIASIbChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSURxbzVxcThnRRAFMikKJwolCiExZWEyLTRTRVNvT3pORWxpMlVoV0o4ZG0yZC1UektwbXIgAToDCgEwQgIIAEoICOv1vq8DEAE?authuser=0
also something limnal in the air, but maybe i just need to go swimming once more. in a week or so will probably stick a big "under construction" sign on g-w to keep me honest. will miss having you all over to my house, but we will find each other in the forest (fingers crossed)
I have not been there! In 2016 I drove Nashville > Denver > Casper > Bozeman > Spokane > Seattle > Portland > SanFran > Moab. Oh dear, about to run out of comments, I'm sure.
Oh yay one more. That photo sphere you posted immediately brings me back to the beloved PS4 game, of course. What a view. I look forward to the site's arboreal rebirth.
I have to fight the urge to remake my site everyday lol i'm excited for what you do :3
I turned to my old Norton Anthology to see if we had read any of her work in my courses, and I immediately remembered Coal. Her enjambment makes her work very fun to read aloud.
I also read the brief bio on Lorde on Poetry Foundation. My personal favourite line of anything I read was the second from Hanging Fire: "and my skin has betrayed me". To speak of lived experience, this is mine every day! Take care.
To be clear, the line is likely about race and/or puberty, but it really hit home re: autoimmune diseases. I think some variant of that line every week it seems.
Oh, finally, I was excited to hear about *Zami: A New Spelling of My Name* as it brought the term "biomythography" to me. I'm quite passionate about the seamless blending of truth and lies in the context of fiction.
so happy you dived into her work, her legacy and words are so so important to me. and totally agree about the enjambment, she's also such a great orator and and hearing her read her own work aloud is so satisfying
if i keep my promise to myself, the blog will be transitioning to more musings on various topics and less life updates. plus i want to share more of my fiction writing!! i have a piece that i am going to try to get up soon. thanks to all who tune into gw
I love yours too! I do have a button on my links page, and if u have a preferred house i could totally add it or i have a few that are empty! x
also! i would love to be on your neighborhood page, in whichever house you have to offer me
most creative/technically advanced neighbors page? no but still very fun (a little kitsch) to me
tbh this is really creative in my eyes 💗 spamming calls rn
SO CUTE
I love it, so cute !
i'm adding more to the phone (under construction in the call app) but all my lovely friends are featured in contacts
thank you all!!!
LOVE
