Read on Twitter
I was talking to some friends yesterday about a bunch of things involving future plans, including my writing future...and how I& #39;ve been flip-flopping for the last 2 years about coming back to write.
There have been a lot of major topics on my mind lately that I would love to write about and I feel as though maybe it& #39;s time to return to the page so I can finally put those statements out there uninterrupted.
I haven& #39;t looked at my revamp project sheet in quite some time, so I& #39;ll have to look through and see if any of what I wrote last during my brainstorming is still cohesive enough for me to want to pursue what I want to do for the page going forward.
...oh, and if you& #39;re a recent follower of my Twitter (not that there& #39;s many of you! LOL), I originally ran a Facebook page that is currently known as Unduplicated -- though I& #39;ve changed the name about 3 times before this one.
The page has over 13K followers, but I& #39;ve been on an indefinite hiatus since 2019 due to my over-endeavorous relaunch of the page after an earlier 2-year hiatus. I run and moderate the page alone, so it was hard to balance that and my ever-changing employment status.
This hiatus has mostly been due to trying to figure out how to play with the current Facebook algorithm that is more image-focused than link-focused and general fatigue from talking about all things social justice when I& #39;m a bit less adamant about it than I was 4 years ago.
Still, I feel like I read a lot of perspectives from others, especially those I follow here on Twitter or watch on YouTube, but they don& #39;t exactly fully mesh with my own experiences or perspectives. There are times where I& #39;m actually upset about some commentary.
I have a bit more of an empathetic approach on some things that I don& #39;t think many of those that I follow take into account but I& #39;m often too afraid to say much these days because I& #39;m not in that same angry headspace that I was, even just 2 years ago.
I& #39;m not in a place where I want to overexplain something to someone who just won& #39;t get it, nor do I want to get into a debate with someone who isn& #39;t paying me money to have those discussions (I started charging people $100 for wasting my Black-ass time).
I& #39;ve also realized that writing on my time when I want to about whatever I want is what I& #39;d rather be doing than working for a publisher who won& #39;t pay me much for my work or makes me feel like I need to speak from another angle that makes my work feel less cohesive.
