For a long time I considered this site to be my internet home. I've ventured away before, but when I came back three years ago I was still carrying around a muse big enough to share. I've posted many stories and also deleted them. I've posted 34 pages of blogs. I've shared a handful or so of poems.Coming on here now serves nothing more than a brief distraction in my life going forward. Each day I...

This is going to be a trans blog where I discuss my own issues and open up about them.One of the things I have been struggling so hard with is trying to squeeze myself into the box of the stereotypical boy/guy/man image. I feel like if I don't fit into that box, I'm not valid. And it sucks, because I know on some level that I don't have to fit into that box, that I personally have the power to...

I updated The Rainy Day Fund again and I'm super excited by it. I really love writing it, but I am really worried that I'm not going to be able to pull it in the direction I see it going. I finally put in a new summary, it's not super complete, but nothing about this story is.I gave a little more insight on Colton, something that I haven't actually really done yet, so that was awesome. He's such a...

So, I know I had people that liked my old story layout - but in all honesty that was just a placeholder until I could be bothered to make a real one. If you wanna go take a look The Rainy Day Fund.I also added a disclaimer - something I've never done before but felt was justified. That included admitting that I'm probably going to change the title. I don't really think it is going to fit the...

Today was another good day. I really think that my new medication is starting to work.I've got to be honest and say that it's a bit weird to be back because for a long time there I was just absent. Of course I'd check in but there'd be no new posts, or they'd be rare, and I just sort of stepped back so much from commenting or anything.I suppose it's safe to say that I've got this weird...

Today has been absolutely great. Usually I feel guilty if I don't really do much, like I've wasted a day, but I really just enjoyed today. I did do some light house work, but I also watched two Christmas movies and had lunch with my grandma.And I wrapped my mom's Christmas present. I'm really excited that she has no idea what it is. She looked at the box and legit said, "You just put whatever it...

Today was a really good day, very productive. This morning I went out shopping with my grandma and helped her carry bags in when we got back. This afternoon I had an appointment with my new therapist and finished running a few errands.She was actually really nice and I feel like she's really going to be able to help me. She actually recommended a book for me to read which I've ordered and should...

I've started working on a new character but I'm finding it hard to paint him into the plot I've come up with. One of the things I like about him is that although he is confident, he does have anxiety issues. His name is Jackson Franklin Fargrave.I think for the new year I really want to work on writing more, it actually is one of my goals, and improving my stories. Most of the time my stories feel...

Thought that just occurred to me - Creating a world involves finding characters to guide you -So, I'm either feeling very aware that I suck at making characters or I just had a revelation about my skills (can I even say that) and I'm not a good writer at all (and no this isn't me being self-depreciating, if I was being self-depreciating I'd go even further and say something dark and depressing...

I don't post a lot anymore. I'm not active at all, nor do I really try to be if I'm honest. I come on, look at the feed, maybe click on an interesting story title, and then leave.I remember hearing once that your twenties are the years that you really find yourself, or some shit like that. This year I turned twenty five and so far I can say that that saying is true. I also hate being in my...

You know how sometimes there are certain lessons in life that you don't really get the first time around? Well this is definitely one of them.Lately I've been a bit frustrated with myself. Work has been stressing me out, which I don't really understand why because it's not like it's a hard job, it's actually pretty easy, but I guess dealing with people and getting up super early is just... I don't...

So I had a bit of a shit day at work and towards the end of the night, for a second, I started thinking about my friend that passed away in May. That of course didn't really lift any of my spirits up, but it did inspire me to write this blog.Fair warning I do talk about depression and suicide below, so if that's a trigger for you please don't continue, just know that you are loved and if anything...

I'm so tired guys. I had work at 6 this morning and slept like complete crap last night. For some reason my job has been stressing me out, and it doesn't help that my mom/living situation really stresses me out. It's to the point where I really don't even want to come home after work. She doesn't even realize she's making it hard for me either, and whenever I bring up anything regarding what's...

I haven't done one of these in years... Everyone is doing them this year though so I'm throwing in my hand and giving it a go. Basic rules apply - one piece per person and you must say Trick or treat smell my feet can I have something good to eat? And please give me a link to a story/poem if you're going to take one of those treats.Snickers - 0/5✰ story comment of 100+ words✰ 2 poem...

Three blogs in two days? What is going on?I've finally written/posted a story. If you saw my last blog you'll know it's been in the works for months, and that it goes hand in hand with my friend's story The Trajectory of Planes.Where her story focuses on a human in the Keoni world, mine focuses on a Riggian boy who's been living in a faction camp where he has to fight for his life in hopes of...

It's probably a good thing no one can see my face right now because I can't wipe this excited freakish grin off my face.The Desperation of DyingHonestly this story has been in the works for MONTHS. I don't even remember the first time Maddi told me that I should do this, or the first time I actually considered it, but the fact of the matter is I've done it.As a companion piece for The Trajectory...

So, I was actually going to post a blog the other day but then I thought it was stupid and didn't bother. And then I was gonna go join the Comment Monsters but then I realized the month ends in like five days so... let's try writing another blog!ANYWAYBIG NEWSI finally got a car! It's a 2014 Ford Focus with less than 12k miles and it's officially my baby. I need a name for it though so if anyone...

Hello everybody, it me Blake. I didn't last being away for even a full month.How's everyone been? Like seriously let me know.What've you been reading? Actual hard copy books or on here, let me know, I really am interested.As for me and what I've been up to all I can really say is that I've been working a lot. It seems like I'm there every day. It's going pretty well though. Today my boss actually...

Oh mibba friends, I hope you're having a good day.I'm actually in a pretty good mood. I had to work today and while I'm not in love with my job, I do like it. I prefer making drinks over taking orders and that's what I got to do today after like two weeks of being on the register (which just bores me tbh.) I was even told by one of my bosses that they got some feedback on me and let me know...

I know my last blog, just about two weeks ago, I said that I was probably going to be leaving the site, but the truth is I've been coming here and taking a peak and seeing what some of you are doing. It's just so hard to leave when this site has been a part of my life for over a decade. I joined with my first account when I was fourteen and now at twenty five there's definitely a bit of sentiment...
