Ask for help if you need it.

Mastodon tip: You can reply to your own toots. This won't put your username in the toot, but it /will/ mark your reply as part of a conversation.

Among other things, this makes it easier for others to follow what you're saying, if you're posting multiple toots in succession; all they have to do is click one toot and it'll expand the whole conversation thread.

Take action (one small step) on something you’ve been avoiding that will make your life better in the long run.

I just finished #knitting these socks and I am really proud of the colour/yarn/pattern combo! :)

The pattern is Cut & Paste socks, and the yarn is "The Mountain's On Fire" by @ThirdVaultYarns@twitter.com.

Grateful! That my ego has figured out some wise places not to invest itself. For tasks that take less time than estimated. That it's not yet too warm out for me to enjoy the cat napping on me.

Hiya, Shop!

My name is Samuel. I decided to try out this alt thing, and thought that the Wandering Shop would be the place to do it, so here's my #introduction

I write #fantasy mostly, but a little bit of #scifi, and at the moment I'm #writing #historicalfantasy.

I'm #studying my MA Creative Writing with the OU at the moment, and for the thing I'm writing, I'm #reading #Faust.

I intermittently write stuff and things here: www.patchworkmind.co.uk

Come say hi! o/

Today I went to the dreaded doc, however. I put it off no longer. I Did the Thing for my health and therefore deserve gold stars.
Do the thing! You can do it.

Hey people of Mastodon!

I have just (finally) finished the second draft of my novel, and the daunting task of self-publishing it is looming ever closer.

I've never done it before. If anybody has any advice, or anything they wish they'd known before they did it, I'd love to hear it.
