Poetry is short and simple, really releases all your emotions

(Examples: !ocpoetry@piefed.social)

Or short stories

Or sometimes I work on my memoir (which I constantly find myself procrastinating on lol) and try to paint the scene with words… and like just writing and proofreading really takes me back though the “memory-time-machine” and I feel that moment, remember the happiness of that moment.

In line with your description, I’d say the hardest part of a journey is the first step. And having focus issues myself (likely not dyslexia though), I’d say it’s possible to find means to circumvent, mitigate or even use as stepping stones such limitations.

But on the easiest option, I’d suggest drawing, specially short comics. Xkcd is a bunch of stickmen going through silly science situations, One-Punch Man started as very crude doodles, and Sarah Scribbles’ earlier comics are… a thing. But in all cases, they either improved, worked out despite how basic or crude they were, or even worked out because of such.

Recently made a baby board book about colors. Each page just had a collage of magazine images representing a different color. You can make a book with beautiful imagery And very little (or no) writing for babies/children.

You didn’t need to worry too much about the dyslexia. Writers fuck up all the time. That’s what proofreaders and editors are for.

I did too. So I started a blog.

Heavily recommend it. And if you don’t know what to write about, I’ve found giving a list of topics you like and asking a chatbot of your choice to generate an assignment is a good use for them.

Not the paper itself but the assignment prompt

Thanks for the encouragement. I love writing the same prompt most of the time.

It’s about how Latinos are viewed and promoted in mainstream music, and how it’s a reflection of our identities, and Americans understanding of Latinos.

It’s cool because I’m able to answer the same prompt differently and from different angles. And I always find fun tangets to go on or ponder over.

That’s fun!

Rewriting a paper over and over is usually how I work out all my weird parts.

I use github pages for my blog and its whole point is tracking version changes. So now I’m deeply curious about what that would look like with an ever changing singular blog post. The intellectual journey wed see watching an author refine a single idea seems very interesting.

I’d genuinely read it every update that sounds like the kinda woke intellectualism I’m all about!

A paper-crafting how-to book (think of the type of thing you probably would’ve seen on the shelves at a Book Fair for an example of that) would be by far one of the simplest things you could do, and as some authors like Richard Scarry used to show, you could depict that using anthro animals of some description too.
