There are times in my creativity where I crave having people who I can talk to about my work.

Currently, I’m outlining a story I’d love to talk about. But I don’t have that community around me. They’re as disinterested about the made up characters in my head as I am about their very real children. So I don’t talk about my writing or my art. I tend to have conversations about it with myself in my head.

I’m used to being self reliant on my motivation. But it would be nice to have real company.

@Emmacox give it to me raw. You think I’m boosting you for no good reason? Bring that shit. I have ears. (DM is fine if you prefer)
@Emmacox It's a shame social networks became social media, and social media pivoted towards binfluencer culture rather than healthy conversations and more.
@richardazia it is. I really enjoyed the forums of old, and even old Twitter, where I had a lot of writer friends. When everyone splintered from there, I lost contact with many, and those who I do keep in touch with I find it’s no longer a regular thing as it once was.
