ELIZABETH Dunbar

Good night, good night, May your dreams take flight. May the stars shine bright Till the morning light. Let the moon keep watch above, Wrap the world in quiet love. And when the darkness fades away, May peace be yours another day. Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, That I shall say good night till it be morrow.

I’m a writer, digital artist, and relentlessly creative mind. I write books, draw, paint, sculpt, edit and manipulate images, work with photography, create with AI, make dream catchers, and experiment with just about any creative medium that catches my attention. Creativity is one of the primary ways I communicate with the world. I also live with PTSD. I mention that as context, not as a request for pity, sympathy, special treatment, or anyone walking on eggshells around me. I’m responsible for myself. What I ask from other people is basic respect and honesty. I can be extremely expressive when I feel comfortable enough to be myself. If I feel repeatedly judged, rejected, pushed away, or made to feel unwanted, I tend to withdraw. I’m not going to force myself into anyone’s life, conversation, or space. Politically and socially, I’m extremely liberal, but I don’t believe disagreement should automatically require isolation into “safe spaces.” You’re allowed to disagree with me. I’m allowed to disagree with you. Conversation doesn’t require conformity. What I will not tolerate is abuse, harassment, manipulation, scammers, impersonators, fake accounts, or people deliberately exploiting others. I will call that shit out when I see it, and I’m not going to quietly stand there while someone abuses me or somebody else. Don’t follow me because you feel sorry for me. Don’t engage with me out of pity or obligation. If you follow me, follow because something I write, create, say, or think genuinely interests you. That’s really all I ask. I create. I think. I speak. Sometimes I’m funny. Sometimes I’m serious. Sometimes I’m angry. Sometimes I’m probably completely fucking ridiculous. But whatever you get from me, I’d rather it be genuine than manufactured for approval. smashwords.com/profile/view/… deviantart.com/thedreamcodes… thedreamcodegateway.infinity… linktr.ee/TheDreamCodeGatewa…
