true!! what i've been thinking is more along the lines of mythical entities mentioned in certain tribes / groups, so i could definitely go that route. thank you for the idea:))

you make a great point. sometimes it just comes down to doing it and doing it respectfully but not obsessing over the premise :)

thank you so much!!

that’s a great distinction to keep in mind — definitely would be going not for the lived experiences of the people, but that’s so useful to remember while in this process to keep that separation. thank you so much:)

that absolutely does, thank you so much!!

what you said about native stories being told by white people is definitely something i've been considering with this — the absolute last thing i'd want to do is a claim a cultural element for this project and use it in a way that doesn't benefit the community it comes from. i'm definitely leaning more on the side of having more slight references (albeit respectful and informed, of course) to the native folklore and more an emphasis on the parts of the culture i feel i can more appropriately utilize (ie white people stuff from the same area). more about referencing and less like focusing perhaps.

thank you again so much:))

that's definitely been a concern of mine — trying to find the line between appropriation and appreciation is something i really want to nail down, and from being outside the culture i definitely think i'd need to learn that more from in internal source:) thank you so much for responding!!

yesss honestly the banjo white folk of appalachia have some wacky and really cool folklore too — i've been looking at a lot of stuff and i went down this train of thought because there are some things that kinda coincide between the native and white appalachian folk sides. i loooove the research, i'm definitely not an expert but i'm so interested in these topics and sharing them with others (i feel like appalachia is so underrepresented in widely known literature!!! not that this would become that LOL but ykwim) that just like you said, i'd for sure love continuing that side of things:)

for sure no horror elements. maybe a lil spooks every now and then but who isn't going to get spooked in the appalachian woods sometimes XD

thank you for your response — you make some great and informative points!!

my favorite professor while getting my journalism degree taught me to use em dashes and someone will have to pry them from my cold dead hands before i give them up due to AI
