    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.


    I've long held that writing is an act of faith, if not the product of it.

    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.

    Where I'm Calling From

    Introduction: A Confession

    I lied. 

    Well, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration. It would be more accurate to say that I opted for a partial truth. In the words of Carlos Ruiz Zafon, “Perhaps, as always, a lie was what would most resemble the truth”1—and in this fashion, I did lie.

    Going to a con might have been just what I needed...

    ... to get back into the fanfic writing game.

    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.

    Or maybe I'm just superstitious. Many writers are. :P

Final Chapter - On a Riverboat to the Sea · 7:04pm Jul 26th, 2021

And with that, we've reached out final chapter. Thank you everyone for reading!

I had a few thoughts in mind that I was going to share after the story was completed, but honestly I think it's better to let it stand as is. I will say that there are a couple of references scattered throughout its chapters. If anyone has recognized them, that would bring me great pleasure. But even if no one did, I hope everyone who gave this story a chance thoroughly enjoyed what I did with it. I know I did.
