February Self-Challenge

I’m finding myself feeling increasingly overwhelmed with everything going on. Between the horror in the US, the increasing ableist microaggressions populating my world, the fear of my friends, and the never ending struggle to make ends meet, I’ve been finding myself struggling to write. Not because I have nothing to say but because sometimes it can feel like talking about anything other than the trash fire going on feels wrong.

I know it’s not. I know that no matter what happens, these issues still have to be talked about. That even if the worst should come to pass in the US, it is still important to talk about the issues that got us here so that we can fight it completely. Not let fascism and Nazism regrow like a cancer, but excise it fully. I know that self-care and happiness in times like these, in times where you realize that many people like you might die in the coming years because so much of the world just doesn’t think your life is worth saving. That self-care means making sure that you have the strength to keep fighting another day.

To this effect, I am going to take a challenge that I’ve seen Alex Gabriel recommend and other bloggers on this site try out. I am going to commit myself to posting at least 1 post per day this month. They won’t all be serious content . Some might be excerpts of stories I am working on, recipes, or links to videos I’ve been working on making. Either way, once a day I will post some content.

Want to help encourage me? Please post a comment, or consider becoming one of our patreon patrons.

ADDENDUM: I feel the need to add that since I do most of my writing in the middle of the night “DAY” might be a bit of a misnomer lol. For example, the post written for Feb 2 may well not get posted until after midnight.

    Just wanted you to know, I love your blog and look forward to reading more posts from you. That said, I hope it’s OK to ask but will we be saying any more from Baba Yaga’s school any time soon?

    1. 1.1

      I’m hoping so!

      I have another story I am also working on, so I’m trying to balance my time. I am hoping that I can get some of both written this month. Usually the more I write, the more writing I start to do other than just the writing I’m supposed to do? I don’t know if that makes sense lol.

      I take it you enjoyed it and want more?
