In response to "Ugh this year"

I think this year has messed everyone up with Covid. Everyone in my house got it, some were asymptomatic, some of us got hit bad. I've had lingering effects now that just makes it so hard to write. Now where I live, we went into complete lockdown last week, the first province in Manitoba to do it for this second wave, and it just so rejecting, but you got to do what you got to do. Keep on trying to write, it will come back to you, you were always an amazing writer.

In response to "Ugh this year"

Yeah, this year has been pretty much a wreck. I have ideas, but no energy or motivation to write beyond blogging. But that's not related to the pandemic for me. University completely sapped my creativity. Too much times spent studying, writing papers, working with spreadsheets, etc.

I thought I'd be able to get my creative writing flow back being at work this year, but then the pandemic happened and even though I'm working from home, I feel totally suffocated after months of just sitting inside. Definitely cabin fever vibes that aren't conducive for motivation.

It does sound like Matt, and likely you too, could've had covid at the beginning of the year. It has pretty much been established that it was widespread by that time, but testing wasn't really a thing then.

I hope you'll find some way to write. I know it sucks to have ideas and not be able to get them out.

- Awesome! I was figuring it was more using your fears in plot related things, so yay!

- I've always loved mythology too! It's been fun to use them in a fun way. I can't wait to get to where I can actually begin writing and implement them! I'm hoping it comes out as good as I have in my head.

Ooh, I love mythology. A fantasy story with mythological undertones sounds super fun to work on.

You are not off at all. In fact, I think your answer rocks. The prompt was asking about fears in relation to writing.

Okay. Any help I can get I'll be appreciative of. Even if all I get is just knowing I have the "voice" right in my story.

It's more focussed on SFI, but I joined also because of the Fantasy genre.

No I'm not! Thank you! I figured we had to have a Fantasy group on here somewhere.

In response to "Out like a Light"

These days in my house, the power goes out, after everything electrical ran out of juice, I'd have 4 kids complaining, extremely large data bills. In my old apartment our power would randomly go off all day, usually when it was hot as hell and there was nothing we could do but wait it out. We knew it would happen to, it was a given something would happen to the transformer on the block least a couple of times in the summer. Was Never prepared, one flashlight, maybe a couple of candles. Now we got flashlights, candles, tons of batteries, always cases of drinks and water kicking around, in a big house, never a power problem. Had a huge ice storm last fall, took down trees, power lines, all around us people lost power, not my block lol. Karma is kind of funny these days...

Fuck em.

Have you ever boycotted a company or product? If so, tell us the story. If not, what would a company have to do for you to boycott its products?

Oh yes.

Chick-fil-A for one. I have a lot of LGBTQ friends and I believe that people are who they are. They love who they love. I don't give a dingus how good their food is or how swiftly efficient their drive-thru is, I ain't eating their shit and supporting them. Fuck 'em.

Hobby Lobby is another. Just aside from the fact that they are fucking looney "Jesus speaks through the missus" toons and the whole birth control thing, the way they treated their employees during this whole Covid thing AND how they are with literal priceless artifacts. Ugh. They're garbage people.

Jimmy Johns. I loved their bread and their sandwiches were pretty decent. They were just a nice sandwich that wasn't super fancy or tried to be anything that it wasn't. Their owner is a giant douche who hunts large animals for sport and then poses fucking weirdly with them??

I would boycott Facebook as they're horrible as hell, but it's literally the only way I am able to stay in contact with my family in NY. As it is, I've been trying to stay off it as much as possible just because I need to keep what little sanity I have intact.
