#Writephant 2026.03.06 — A5. Bonus question: what is your favorite holiday ritual?

It is a toss up between decorating the Christmas tree or making and eating the Thanksgiving turkey.

#Writephant 2026.03.16 — A4 . Have you ever made up a holiday for one of your stories? If not, what would you make up?

I won't say it's unique, but I did a variation on Carnival for a story about a shaman—she discovers she lives in an asteroid converted into a generation ship, but thinks the computer she wakes is a spirit. A friend from one of the nations inside the ship wants to get the shaman to loosen up. The holiday is about meat, a nod to the name, but also about the needs of the flesh. It's a crazy sensual and trance inducing celebration, yet as I wrote it not very spicy. The story and the scene were inspired by Natalie Merchant's Carnival.

it's funny that the gender war psyop is pushed so hard and framed as scientific when the origin for the idea of gendered behavior and roles is primarily a spiritual or energetic concept

the social and medical contexts start from those spiritual concepts, they can't stand on their own or exist without them

and we're expected to forgo any spiritual understanding of gender or anything else

..then the fuck are we fighting about..?

#Writephant 2026.03.16 — A2. Are there holidays in any fictional worlds that you wish were real, say like Grubhog day in Amphibia or Hogswatch in Discworld?

Wish were real? No. Too often it is a relabeling of Christmas or other holidays, a kind of unimaginative whitewashing. However, I will make a shoutout for a holiday called Running of the Leaves. It is perfectly suited for the alien fantasy world as it both highlights their magic while complementing the peculiarities of the people who populate this unique world. The holiday could not translate to ours.
