A long time ago, a friend who was an online content creator for a TV show told me I should #vlog my blogs. So, I'm experimenting.

For those who uses #Obsidian to write stories, be it long form or short stories, what's your workflow for writing? Currently I'm trying to find options to see which one works for me.
Before this, I'm following Eleanor Konik's workflow and Vanessa Glau's, modified it little by little, but at the end of it I see that it doesn't really work for me, and that's why I need some pointers. It doesn't need to, but if you integrated plugins here and there in your workflow, I would like to hear it. Thanks!

Obsidian Forum · Increasingly Atomic Folders: A WorkflowSome people have asked to see my full folder layout, so here you go, here’s my folder system as of 2021-03-31. Note that my “docs-vault” sits directly in my root for my NAS, and contains functionally all of my files (the only exceptions are my collection of a jillion vacation and baby photos, and the unorganized stuff in my writing folder that I haven’t had a chance to sort through). Hope this helps someone see one possible implementation of Johnny Decimal: 00 Meta 01 Attachments (sometimes ...

"At high enough levels, learning magic is annoying. Take everything you ever hated about school, now add magical powers. And unlike what A Certain Terf Who Will Not Be Named would have you think, there's no boarding school that covers it."

I write sometimes.
Not anything really solid, mainly bits n pieces. Scenes. Mini Fics, I suppose. Random stuff.
I'm contemplating posting a few here. Not really expecting anything, but maybe they might brighten somebody's day.

"You may have noticed that magical types drink a lot of herbal teas. It's frequently put forth as this cool and mystical thing that's supposed to "center you" and help you access "divine powers" or whatever. All bullshit."

The first day of NaNoWriMo ended with my office curtains falling down and Storm Ciaran flinging wheelie bins around.
An omen on word counts to come?
We shall see.
At any rate, here's a recap of my Day One. How're y'all doing?
The Lit RefineryNaNoWriMo: Day One — The Lit RefineryWriting marketing content and writing creative content are similar in a lot of ways, but creative content uses muscles that marketing content doesn’t really need.
TFW you realize how to twist the plot to make it surprising AND rewarding for the readers. 10/10 absolutely recommend. #AmWriting #WritingFiction
Do you ever devote #writingtime to #daydreaming?
Any tips on naming things in your fictional worlds? I am struggling with this when writing anything that is not set on Earth. I just feel like anything I come up with sounds ridiculous.
Currently needing to name an energy source with magical properties and a rebellion in a WIP and just, ugh!

Arbeit am Rohtext:
Eine bestimmte Dialogszene hatte ich nur eingeplant, damit meine Prota eine wichtige Info bekommt. 
Beim Schreiben der Szene habe ich den Aspekt leider vergessen, weil die Charaktere eine unglaublich interessante Dynamik entwickelt haben. 
Jetzt muss ich entscheiden, ob ich die Szene lösche und neu schreibe oder mir eine andere Art für den Infodump ausdenke.

I also prompted the AI to suggest names for an american male born in 1980 who serves 15 years in a federal prison for multiple drug and violent crimes.
Now, I am not sure.
Is it my own or the AIs bias? All but one or two of the suggested names sound either african american or latin to me?
Am I wrong?

Tomorrow is St Patrick’s Say and I am part Irish so buy my book. This guy in Costa Rica did.
