It’s been a while since I last posted anything here. A lot has happened to me personally and professionally and needless to say, it’s been a very long year.

Yet life goes on and I’ve written a lot of great freelance pieces this year. Until now, I only promoted them on my Twitter account. However, I realized that posting them on my website is a better option because my relationship with Twitter is cautious at best.

In October, I wrote about topics ranging from Persona Q2’s impact on my creativity to moving on from harmful creators as an LGBTQ fan. Without further delay, here are the articles and essays I’ve written this month.
