Olivie Blake is Not Writing, Sep. 24, 2024: Adapting Daydreams, Reimagining the Future

I, my dagger, and my bouquet of rants return to chat in reply to asks/reviews/comments in a series of boldly shameless rambles wherein I, Olivie Blake, am not writing. Today's topics include what I spent the summer writing (0:27), a little bit about forthcoming releases JANUARIES (3:19) and GIFTED AND TALENTED (4:50), advice for getting along with your mother (8:39), on being adult enough to write for adults (16:51), how to find your writing style (20:54), a brief and accidentally inaccurate bit about time loops and multiverses (it's just a time loop not a closed time loop, that's on me for not adequately preparing my thoughts, 25:23), and managing your rage with the state of the world by imagining a different future (26:09).
