As a content creator

I will no longer be using tumblr to write and post my content. Why?

Because I sometimes write adult content. Not only sexual content, but violence and other adult themes. Why do I write such things?

Because I have written them for years. Because, as a writer, life is not all rainbows and butterflies. I write books and stories about humans. There is sex, but also themes of death, violence and sadness. This is part of human nature.

Tumblr’s full-ban on adult content is one of the most ridiculous things that I have ever seen. This is their way of trying to clean up their self-created mess that will drive away large portions of their base, because “adult content” is more than just the annoying porn-bots.

Adult content, as we have seen, has hit things such as “Chronic pain” blogs but also blogs that are LGBT+ friendly. I’m queer and I have a chronic illness.

While my run on tumblr has been long, I am willing to move on from it. I lived through Strikethrough on LJ. I will survive this.

My friends, my fellow content creators, my readers, and anyone else who sees this— don’t delete your tumblrs. Leave them as skeletons. Allow tumblr to cannibalize itself and only leave the bones behind.

This really is Strikethrough 2.0.

Stay calm, and begin to back up everything.

Good luck, my loves.

BODY&SHADOW 002: DRAGONFLY

Xueyu’s steps were brisk on the sliver-stone salvaged hallways leading him away from Jiling’s private chamber. He made quick work of the angled corridors, followed all their twisting and turning around sacred spaces until he hit the day in full. The large man stood in the   main doorway of the mountain’s deeper recesses for a fleeting moment, watching the lazy rustling of the world beyond—its simple tuning so grand, its motions so slow that they were imperceptibly fast. A paradox, a puzzle: perfect.

The inner walls of Luanshi Sect’s mountain compound twisted some yards ahead of him, composed of stretches of dense rebar hammered into a more acceptable shape, metal bones of a fallen structure picked from her wreckage and reused to fit the purposes of a society built atop the echoes of former folly. Lungs full of the morning’s dewy air, he started down the broad stairs and down the path toward his training yard, turning just before the exit yawning before him. Xueyu dipped into a shadow-lined path between two smaller structures made of hand-mashed mud and steel. He emerged on the other side to his favorite sound—the complaints of one of his pupils being punished by the superior skill of a boy he considered his best.

my fic for the 2k18 capri big bang

Damianos, Captain of The Egeria and the Ellosean Sea.

Damen was a steadfast pirate with as much heart as devotion, as dedicated to his cause as he was to the sea. He was stronger than most, more loyal than any, and each new voyage filled him with something inimitable that no one else could understand, aside for perhaps his crew.

Every expedition was different, varying in length and difficulty, never to be predetermined. At the end of each there was time to recuperate, a chance for everyone to spend it as they saw fit before returning to reality. For Damen there was his private area on the rocks by the water where he found quiet, serenity, and a way to always be close to the ocean.

Until one night, he found something else, something new. An unearthly creature unlike any other, with a beauty that rivaled anything he had ever seen.

It would appear that mermaids were more than just a myth.
