On one hand, my college is writing an article on my career and my role in a major #Engineering achievement in my industry.

First time that's ever happened. I didn't expect it. I'm very grateful. It's a direct refutation of the #ImposterSyndrome i suffered earlier in my #MechanicalEngineering career.

But sitting in that is difficult. In my mind I'm already into the next problem, the latest dissatisfaction. Why aren't i #writing more? Why aren't i working on the second draft of that #WyldeBlueWander chapter? Or acknowledging that #BeatPreyLove for all its kink and suspension of disbelief, is my longest running story and should be treated as an accomplishment not an embarrassing guilty pleasure?

This is a personal reflection. Not quite a lamentation. Just a morning admission that i can't out money/success my dissatisfaction. The external is necessary but insufficient. I'll have to sit with this and understand why i consistently want whatever i don't have at that moment.

A default of not scarcity but deficiency.

Whataboutism applied to my own life and choices.

But even that is just another problem to solve.

The beginning of a story I tried to tell once before. One I #AmWriting once again.

A young man and his two siblings flee the wreckage of their magical martial arts dojo and the shadow of death chasing after them. Stuck now in a foreign land of merchants and mines, nothing is as it seems and no one is trustworthy.

But the Wylde School produced talented fighters first and foremost, and Isaiah Wylde is about to bet his future and his last two coins on his two fiery fists in a fight that he was never meant to win.

Expect magical martial arts drama, tension and high stakes. I #AmWritingSFF after all.
Constructive feedback welcome
