Open Thread: Oracle Hotline

[mithen]

 In good news, it looks like the pre-sale for my book will launch this weekend! I'm super-excited about it (it's about 400 pages long, good grief) and kind of nervous. I hope we get some people signing up for the pre-sale!

But let's talk about current projects!

--Where or who do you turn to when you need ideas?

I know some people turn to things like ChatGPT when they need a creative nudge, and I'm not exactly against the idea, but I can't bring myself to do it yet! I usually review canon or listen to one of my fandom-based playlists, hoping to spark something off of that. It's a very hit-or-miss process!

Yay for publishing! Congrats! 🤸

Had very good news today. My sister was called in after her mammogram. They thought they saw something, tested her today, she's all clear! SO happy!!! 💃

Happy mood today, ha! As for the question, I don't have a specific nudge, but of course canon helps, and sometimes I go through my Rolodex of memories: beach fun, holiday craziness, home movies, etc.

Sometimes an old movie gets me going. I've been bingeing '50s SF movies, mostly B-movies, which are a lot of fun! ☺️

Hmm, I think I'll search out another movie tonight on YouTube. 👽
