hello making another comeback, iโ€™m toch prev. kalki on @vanzhuo, coming back where i left off. iโ€™m eighteen and a struggling student so itโ€™s hard for me to maintain commitment but iโ€™m trying my best !! iโ€™m on wattpad under the user throughs and have 1 work of very badly written prose out there. i like reading about historical fiction / new adult small town blues or mainly just like anything and everything with themes that are centered around something something fantasy something something murder and something something gays. honestly, if i rb your wips w tags that scream thru the screen, then iโ€™m probably asking u to add me to ur taglists. some more stuff down below,

what iโ€™m writing: calla lilies | first draft complete, no info out yet except for this wip intro in yet another one of my blogs. iโ€™m not satisfied with it so weโ€™re still going round n round trying to figure things out before i get anything out there. ;;; monsoon as an unifying bond | in progress, wip intro not yet out but this has been my main wip ever since i wrote a 66k spin off on it thatโ€™s never seeing the light of day except for anaย who has already read it. this wip is basically:

  • nora hates feride because nora hates everyone
  • this dude dies bcs feride loses control of herย โ€œharmlessโ€ gift, that is, light
  • nora canโ€™t let them arrest feride for murder so she hides feride and covers for her
  • they try to figure out what happened that night
  • and. death by light, essentially,ย 
  • i canโ€™t sum up stuff itโ€™s just absolutely morbid disaster gays trying to save their skin w a happy ending:

what i will definitely read:ย literally anything if we are mutuals, if we are mutuals (and by that i mean, if u know my main account and have talked to me more than once on discord ?? or on tumblr messages) then you can add me in your general taglists !! i intend to hide my main account, so i wonโ€™t be following people back :( but! i will check out all the stuff from people who interact with me so! anyway, themes i like reading are dark academia, quiet college towns, hate to love tropes, lgbtq main cast, sibling dynamics and war, politics, historical fiction, fantasy, and eccentric worldbuilding plot pointsย โ˜†

I AM NO LONGER ON THIS BLOG. I AM NOW NIKOLAE.

FROM THE INSIDE: A SHORT EXCERPT 001. ( by @neptunely; f. a. m. m. )

[ note. ] โ€” dorothy is taking a shower while also battling with intrusive thoughts + existential notions + and being unhinged. sheโ€™s internally disturbed with the actuality of living with three versions of herself and dealing with trauma that she may or may not possess. in here, she deems herself to be โ€˜unclean.โ€™ and so she must flood her skin with water.

Ogma is an exploration of the literary art.. Ogma is interested in the potential of young writing, in the imaginations of writers and dreamers with vast universes inside their minds. Release your creativity and let the words flow.ย 

Welcome back to the Ogma Magazine! After an accidental deletion of our tumblr account a few days ago we are now back! (Hi itโ€™s me the editor, Analeh @stargirlsagaโ€‹ , and I tried to delete a sideblog and instead deleted all of my blogs! Everything is okay now and have all the blogs back up and running.)

Anyway, now that our account is set up again we can re-introduce the magazine if you didnโ€™t see our first couple of posts!

About

Ogma is a voluntary-run online writeblr literary magazine. We will be featuring the work of our team of content writers (applications closed for the moment but will open again in the future) and submissions from the writeblr community!

Every month we will publish work by writblrs and content creators featuring narrative essays, original fiction, poetry, prose, artwork and interviews commenting on life, culture and activism.

The meaning behind the name Ogma is after the god of langauge, speech and learning called Ogma, in Irish and Scottish mythology.

How do I submit my work?

When will the first issue be out?

THE IMMORTALITY COMPLEXย  โ†’ ( wip re-introduction. )

The night sky enveloped the world like a wet blanket, smothering all brightness in its embrace. A thin sliver of a crescent moon provided a weak light to illuminate the muddy swamp where he lay writhing in pain staring up at the starless sky through half-open eyes. The slickness of the swamp encircled him slowly, like a cobra absorbing its prey. The setting was grim, an eerie veil of silence hanging over the desolate place. A single rotten tree stood plainly on the outskirts of the area, a crow hopping from branch to branch.
He squeezed his eyes shut once more, the blood in his veins beginning to boil. It was coming, he knew at that moment, and let out a strangled scream at the thought. Turning to face the bank of the swamp a familiar stench invaded his nostrils. Not even six feet away from him lay the most recent offerings to the Ash God. Twelve rotting bodies, stacked in grotesque embraces to please the god, slowly sinking into the bubbling liquid consuming it. He retched, bile rising up like acid in his throat. He could feel his bones beginning to melt like sugar in water, the vile sound of the godโ€™s laughter.
