Sci Fi And Fantasy - Blog Posts
Happy Monday!
Today is Monday, May 12th and we're going to be writing tonight from 6-7 PM so join the group message if you want to write with us.
This blog is going to be reblogging a lot of content that @siixerror has been working on. Over the weekend, Si spent so much time setting up the Tumblr - it has been nothing short of super fun. Establishing the Tumblrs for @sagedbysi @blckhxtry @siixerror means that there's space from Facebook and the ability to write without pressure or judgement. The algorithms of the mainstream platforms get draining, so for a switch up Si decided to come back home to - Tumblr.
The focus has been on content creation and finishing up @css147 by August 1.
Content Creation: make more digital art/writing, which means that it's important to be on Canva and queuing as many posts as possible as often as possible. The struggle comes with making the content, rather than queuing it --> it's an art form for sure and it takes a lot of patience.
Writing @css147: finishing up a science fiction novel for self publishing, trying to stick to a deadline helps with feeling motivated to write. If the book isn't finished by August 1 then the next project will start. The struggle is remaining true to writing goals --> this is taking a lot of discipline.
Reading 24 novels: a reading goal, maybe you can read most of these, maybe you can't but reading is important because it fuels the creative juices to write good stories - to track reading goals you should use Bookmory
There is a current reading list:
The plan is the share content to build the writing and reading community for Sage. If you are a writer or reader that is looking for a laid back community to join then please be in the group chat.
The more readers and writers, the better the conversations and the more inspiration.
Happy Monday!
Hello World
Time to expand the footprint a bit! My name is James Kenwood, and I am looking for a place to experiment with self-publishing: flash fiction, novellas, novels, and whatever else tickles my creative fancy. I will be using this blog Grim Acres to share and promote some of my writing. What do I focus on? Very simple: Lovecraftian dread set during World War Two - and sci-fi. Perhaps some sci-fi with tentacles too, since the intersection is already there. Or maybe sci-fi Nazis, although that trope is wearing a bit thin by now (says the one who just made a tentacle joke). Regardless! The Grim Acres will be the place where all this dread and darkness is shared. Feel free to send me a PM if you like what you read here, or have any thoughts to share. PS: you can also find me on Substack, under the same names. I'll post a URL for that once I'm sure tumblr won't shadow-ban me for linking to a "rival"...!
