Malfoid enjoyers and fellow yearners, there is an anime I would like you to watch. Even if anime is not your cup of tea, I think you would fall in love.
Your Name.
I don't think I can finish the Red Rising series. The first book was really engaging. 100% male power fantasy, sure... but it was a page turner, it kept me going.
But the longer the story went, the mechanics of it just kept taking me out of the story. Catastrophe > miraculous recovery. Repeat ad nauseum. It started becoming tiresome during the second book.
I'm a third of the way through book 3 and I just can't bring myself to care anymore. I think I'm going to abandon it.
On to the next book.

Beneath the veil, Malfoid keeps the silence of an ancient house. In her hands rests the serpent; upon her shoulders, the weight of all that came before. 🐍

A reminder to all the Yearners in the Malfoid tag....
While the algorithm does plot against things trending for long times... what you can do to help combat that is remember to interact with the posts you like. I know that it's easy to fall into the habit of just clicking likes and reshares, but this actually doesn't promote the spreading of content beyond a certain reach... and certainly not after they've started throttling the tag.
Leave a comment on art you like or reshare, even if its just simply to say why you like it. Engage in discussions of story snippets and rewrites. Not only does this help with getting content seen more broadly (The algorithm favors engagement), it also bolsters and encourages those creators to keep making content (Yes, egos must be fed).
So, if you like a particular artist or piece of art, remember to engage with it!

Progress update: the mania has completely subsided. After the dust settled, I had to take stock of where I was at.
40k-ish words worth of a setting, plot, and character information.
An outline of about 30k words broken up into different sections for chapter and scene planning.
All of that produced in 3 weeks of writing in every spare waking moment.
And I will be trudging through development edits for the foreseeable future. But that's expected. Writing long form content is really difficult. I'm just thrilled to be pushing forward day after day even though the creative mania has left me.
Thank you to every Malfoid artist and poster. This story wouldn't exist if not for you.
If you are looking for music that inspires yearning to pair with the most recent Malfoid gems:
Jimmy Eat World's album, Futures.
In particular:
Kill
Polaris

Sometimes there's nothing left to do but smoke a pipe and contemplate how you arrived at the state you are currently in.
One more Malfoid post before I go back to focusing on my own story. Keep at it, fellow yearners.

I've started using a creativity hack I found on YouTube called 'the grail method'
You write down thoughts, scribbles, put pictures in between the pages. Free form, no organization. Just a brain dump whenever you have a creative thought or idea or inspiration.
Then review it constantly, to revisit what you put down before, regardless of whether it was a good idea, or something you quickly discarded.
I've been doing this for about a week now. Slow at first, but it's already starting to work, and it's honestly surprised me at how it's helping me think through problems, and spur on my creativity with my current Malfoid-inspired fictional setting.
I would highly recommend trying it if you are a creative type.

It's such a small thing, but I wish Malfoid was depicted more often in a knee-length skirt rather than the shorter variants.
She is high class after all.

The mania has subsided into a slow simmer.
Still hammering away at developmental edits. The overall shape is good, but it requires far more work than I initially thought.
I'll probably be at this stage for a while, sadly. But ive written more in the last 18 days than have have in the last year.
