This is the traditional dress of young, unmarried girls in the "Oldland" near Hamburg. Sharing; because Germany is not only the Dirndl. The Dirndl is Bavaria. There are so more folklore dresses and so much beautiful things to learn about them! Source: FolkCostum & Embroidery

A great tip, that I still use today (even if I don't like writing tips most of the times) is - "don't lost your flow". When you stuck on your novel because you have a great scene in your head, but there is space to get there - skip the space at the moment. I mostly do it like this: (Whatever need to happen in short points to get to my scene) "The Scene im wanting to write at the moment) You can even colour coded it, so it's easier to find, when you read your novel again. Maybe the Idea, how you can get to this when I have the desired scene out of my head. Keep your writing flow going! You don't need to write your story straight.

This is, what I loved on wattpad so much (didn't come into my account again! *sniff*) - yoou could interact with the writers. And the people interacted with my noel and was giving me feedback and things. This was so nice!

My favorite thing as someone who primarily reads fanfiction more so than writes it is when an author responds to your comment

Like- you write this beautifully thing and also took time to reply to my three keyboard smashes and conspiracy theory’s? 🥰

One of the things, that you feel your ancestors touching with you.

I love sitting down to crochet or knit while watching TV. Something about it feels very human. Like how many of my ancestors spent time weaving and stitching, creating little useful items with their hands while listening to the stories of the day? Something about it feels so connected to a past I have no real tangible connection to and its beautiful.

My writing would be dead without a good synonym website. Sometimes you brain, as a writer, is just blank and you could not - for your life - think of another world for "frighten". Without the website I use my writing would be so boring! *laugh*

site that you can type in the definition of a word and get the word

site for when you can only remember part of a word/its definition 

site that gives you words that rhyme with a word

site that gives you synonyms and antonyms

Love this! *laugh* So true.

I didn't liked the ending of an Inuyasha episode. So I took a pen and an clear notebook and started writing a better one. And this is how I got into writing, dear children. Now excuse me, I have to stare at one of 96 unfinished stories on my desktop and make zero progress.

“how did you get into writing” girl nobody gets into writing. writing shows up one day at your door and gets into you

Oh, huch much I heard this as a kid. Felt my dreams where crusched again and again in the name of money. "But why do you do it, when you don't intent to publish it?" (I'm writing in my free time.) "You need a better degree for this." etc. etc. etc. Why? Am I not allowed to made something just for fun? Just because i like it? Am I not allowed to dream a bit and let my ambioution get me as far ahead as possible? When my Kids tell me their dreams, what they want to become when they adults or something, I try my best to be supportive but still real. "I want to be a doctor", my youngest told me.

"You must study long and be good in school, but than you can do it. I believe in you, when you really want to be a doctor, you could be an doctor", I told her. Because why shouldn't I? When she is good in school, than maybe she will become a doctor one day. She is just class 1 - why should I determinined her future from this point on? She is my daugther. She is capble of doing everything, she sets her mind to and will find a way, that made her happy in life.

I don't think many people realize how much they've been turned into a bunch of casually cynical jerks.

Someone may come to their parents and say "I want to write a book" and their parents will say "it's really hard to get published".

Someone might confide in their sibling and say "I want to sell my art on "x" platform" and that sibling will say "do you know how many people you'd be competing with? Do you know how many shops are even on that platform?"

I know a kid who once told his best friend "I think I wanna start a dnd podcast" and the friend was like "do you know what the word "oversaturation" means?"

Personally, I don't know why any of that matters? And even if it did, perhaps your response should be "Do it! Do it and see where it goes!"

It was a complicated and hard year. So my good is: I took up crocheting in May and it's so therapeutic for me and I'm not that bad at it. I made so much nice things for my home and it gives me the feeling of growing up a lot more. Better times ahead for us all. I feel it.

Since 2024 is right in front of us and 2023 was a REALLY hard year, let’s all say something positive that happened. Maybe it’s a game you played. A song you liked. Something you accomplished. Whatever it is, mine is that I will be on the other side of struggling this year and it’s gonna be hard at first but I will be able to be a more present mother and all around a better person. What’s yours?

Seems like the goat is official "eaten". *laugh*

Ok. This sounds like a flower I would associate with Sigyn. I need to write this down, in my mind this flower suits her just fine. And it's such a sweet flower. Found them in the wild sometimes ago, and they we're so little. You could overlook them so easy, but there was so many, keeping company to one another. Huch...so sweet...

Do you have a favourite deity and, if so, why?

(I think favourite deities are a thing pagans are allowed to have - am I right in this?)

Hey! Yes, I have and I know many that have. *laugh* Even when we say, we mostly work with pantheon xy doesn't that mean, that we worship all the gods the same or that we will not get astray and maybe will worship an outsider once in a while. When we took it from a traditional point, it's really natural. A farmer, as example, wouldn't honour the same god as an skald (norse bard) or a "payed warrior". At the moment I'm working with Frigg. If you know norse paganism, it's very clear why. She is the wife of Odin, first of the aesir. "Foremost among the goddess", like the edda call her. She is the godess of "rightful" (from society and family approved) marriage, of pregnancy, childbearing, motherhood and domestic arts. So as a Wife, Mother, Homemaker and fiber artist (I love this word, sounds so eleant), I find it quiet natural, that I'm drawn to her.

I see that you're into traditional feminity. I'm not familiar with a lot on tumblr, but does this mean you're a traditionalist? (Believe that gendered roles are what's best for society, etc.)? I also see you're a nordic witch! Do you believe that anyone can worship the Gods?

Are you homophobic? Transphobic?

I guess I'm trying to figure out what you stand for before I really move forward with engaging with your blog.

Hello. Hope you haven't waited long for your answer, I was ill over all the christmas days. Still a little bit, so sorry if my answer is confuse. *laugh* So...I don't think traditional gender roles are best. I think, and feel, that they are best FOR ME. It's a lable I use, because it's convinient and discribe best, what I feel. Being and doing, what was traditional branded as feminity and female work, just feels right and best FOR ME. Yes. I totally believe, that everyone could worship the gods. I mean - i'm just human, what am I in the universe to took it on me to decide what the gods find proper and what not. As far as I can tell, is that you wouldn't be an outcast, as long as you're respectful. Feel free to work with them. When they call you - no human can tell you otherwise. (Or should dare....we all know, the norse gods somethimes have quiet a temper...*laugh*) No, I'm totally not. Love is love as long as both are consentual adults. If you love the same, another or no gender is totally up to you. Same with the Trans community. What happens in your bedroom and what is in your pants should only be my concern when 1) - I'm interested in joining or 2) you overstep a boundry and drag someone with out consent into your bedroom or your pants. Otherweise - feel free. It's your own body. Totally fine with me. I, as a german who worship the old norse gods and like a more traditonal way in her marriage, can totally see, why someone would be careful with his sources and with who they interact. I have to be on the fence all the time, or I will reblog nazi art od terf blogs, just because I maybe don't looked good or long enough and just saw a nice picture or nice saying. (The blind hen and so...hope you understand. *smile*) Take care and I hope you have nice and happy holidays!
