#gao coded

three years ago I started a project called "Lesbians Take Over the World" which was a very long story where the main characters were all lesbians. It started as a high fantasy saga, around 3 books, so my inner obsessed-over-tolkien child could tell whatever story she wanted to tell. Three years later, I am handling the most complex piece of writing I could ever think about and struggling with every step of making this thing. I have never been more excited about anything in my entire life since I was seven reading sherlock holmes for the first time.

Tumblr is the only place I talk about this story. Some of my friends know, but I dont really talk about this, or about any piece I am usually writing.

Since the first draft, Gao has been a main character of this story. She is the only thing that didnt change over the years and new ideas I came up with. I always loved creating monsters, I had a little notebook to draw them as child, so she wasn't my first, but she is my most special one.

i hope one day I finish this. I don't know if I will have the guts to publishing her story, but once I get to know how to tell it, I want poeple to listen to it.

After three years, I only have one page and three more paragraphs and around 30 pages of discarded drafts. I have a lot of ground to cover of the world building and the tiny details about the narrative, but I am happy that I spent those three last years working on this story and thinking about it every second of my days.
