Filling out Bingo card of writing in different genres. Huge Coheed fan. Average musician.

I dub this year 'The Year of Social Presence'.
I've got a lot of anxiety about putting myself and my ideas out there and I'm going to push myself to work on that.
As such I'll be doing a year long project on Twitter.

Looks like such a great time!
Still in shambles that I got COVID the night before 😭😭
Would have loved to meet all these lovely people!
Congrats to everyone involved all the same!!

Just found out my serial is being stolen too!
(Is it strange that I'm a little flattered by that?)

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

I touched sand, I touched grass. Touched rock and touched dirt.
On lake and ocean, with songs and stories;
It was a good weekend

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

Cover looks amazing. Can't wait!

[Books Beyond Boundaries NI @BooksBeyondNI]

We know you've all been waiting....
Here's the cover reveal for #BooksBeyondNI Anthology! 😱

We're so proud of this anthology, reflecting the quality & diversity in writing on our little isle 💜

Keep an eye out for the launch in August! #ComingSoon

Just realized I'm starting to look like a bad @hasanthehun cosplay, no?

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

eSports is an objectively better version of conflict than war

Art is the bastard of Work.

@sharbelsong "I see no holes in this argument"
My dude, I see no argument
Just holes.
Would love to say that I'd love to hear the full argument, but it's more likely that I'll get a linguistic dance number.

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

What is ownership?

Drafting away in a coffee shop when whose book happens to be looking over my shoulder? @conor_kostick
Stop following me 🤣
I'm writing, I'm writing!

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

@sharbelsong It's touching 'grace', actually, and that's just how you play elden ring

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

@sharbelsong Is this an original?

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

@BCDreyer Nina Woodstown.
Ooh, that's spicy. Works so damn well.

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

@LynnKatzenmeyer You cannot hope to contain this steaminess you've unleashed upon the world

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

@sharbelsong Aha! So there is no proof. Sounds pretty sus to me

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

We will be deconstructing the concept of 'Actors' or 'acting'.

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

Last week's thread was dry and boring. Not quite what I envisioned. I'm going you re-jig the weekly threads to suit me. That means, you guessed it, deconstructions for SFF worldbuilding!! Woo!
Hold your applause.
I'll use news to prompt it...

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

@sharbelsong I'm going to need proof

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

True in publishing in regards to production, but rarely is a book co-authored by anyone except the trend of the market. You expect a series to have the same name on each cover. Names sell books, even other people's.
As the oldest media, shouldn't we be leading change?

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

Alright, week one discussion thread: Narratives and Authorship in online spaces; Books to Blogs, Series to Serials.
This'll be a fairly wide topic to start the year off
#discussion

[SleepyRussian @RusSleepy]

It's a widening of content, yes, but I think it's also a dilution of ownership. Though many shows and artists have a main name behind them, they are backed by an arsenal of workers to produce the modern, polished media you see today.
Producers;editors;test groups etc
