The king is back 👑👑

This year, this storied Tumblr festival will begin on Sunday, May 10th, and last through Saturday, May 16th.

Why participate? Well, in its founder’s own words, it’s “a fun reason to make ourselves into the awesome characters we daydream up while going about our normal lives”.

But it’s also, in my view, a strike back at the common tendency to see fanwork – and creative work more generally – as such Serious Business that it’s not allowed to be openly self-indulgent. People worry so much, these days, about whether their artistic endeavors are “good enough”, or are a credit to their Brand, or whatever. I think that’s sad. Maybe even a little unhealthy, if we do it all the time. What’s the harm, really, if not everything we write is Serious Literature? Who said it had to be? Why can’t we embrace the cringe every now and again, if that's what sparks joy?

About a month ago I was let go from my job without any warning, and I haven't had any luck finding a new one yet, so I'm opening some commissions! You can find the form for them here!

There i see it. The island I've been searching for.

Finally finished my tribute to my favourite part in epic the musical. I adore the songs in this saga and wanted to tribute something that represents all of Odysseus journey .
