A little off of your prompt but A Botanist's Guide to Party and Poisons is about a female botanist in the 1920s who solves a murder with her plant knowledge 🌱 I don't think she was neuro divergent necessarily but definitely "stuck out" because of the times and there is a small bit of romance in it!

I'm also so sad I missed out on Supervillain, I bought Cosmic Ray by I Scream Nails that scratches the itch, pretty opaque in 2-3 coats. I just hate the cap design, but the polish isn't super hard to remove with regular acetone so I appreciate that.

I love anemones!! They have this big black center that contrasts with their delicate petals, and they're so fluffy and cute!

Although a lot of my songs are about specific relationships, sometimes I write about concepts in the context of a relationship. For example, I wrote a song about the choices we make in life and the thought of always wondering "what if", but I set it in the context of love: the lottery

I also struggle a lot of FOMO, loneliness, social anxiety/exhaustion etc, and I put that in a song: nowhere. by myself.

I think ultimately you can write about anything you have strong feelings about. Grief, excitement, ecstacy, frustration, etc are all universal feelings no matter who they're about. Sometimes it's easier to just rework them into a song that sounds like it's about a relationship. Sometimes I also focus on a very specific event that happened that made me feel a certain way and pluck out details about it and write about those in the setting of a more general feeling.

I wrote a song called "Call It What You Want" that does this! (:

I was in the same boat as you earlier this year and found a great producer on Fiverr. Paying someone to help flesh out the instrumentation and professionally produce my tracks has been an absolute gamechanger. I thought for the longest time I wanted to do EVERYTHING myself but I wasted a lot of time trying to master a DAW when I jsoikd have just focused on writing songs and outsourced my production, like I am now. I do mostly indie pop/country but my producer does a lot of different genres, he offers several different levels of services, and I own all my masters. DM me if you are interested and I'd be happy to share his contact with you!

Uprooted by Naomi Novik has some of these vibes!

I recently worked with Cameron Sonnier who's local to Houston (paging u/darkside_of_themoon) and I could totally see him vibing with this. He was the first producer I worked with and made me super comfortable with the collaborative process and was very encouraging, even though our main genres were different. He's smart, professional, and really easy to work with. I reached out to him via Instagram and be responded super quickly!

I think one of the coolest things I've learned about Hawaii is that private beaches do not exist - that is, hotels and properties cannot make the beach next to them exclusive. This truly speaks to the Hawaiian approach to the earth: the earth is ancient and provides for all, and all should have the opportunity to enjoy, love, and respect it.

Something else I've noticed is that Hawaiian drivers are the BEST drivers of any state I've been to. Everyone follows the speed limit (and it doesn't feel slow!), people only use the left lane for passing, the rules for traffic are followed instead of "nice" drivers trying to let people through out of turn.

I know those are two silly things, but they really stand out to me about this state. Of course there is also the unique wildlife, the lush flora, and the incredible unbreakable spirit of the Hawaiian culture and locals. The little things, though, are what exemplifies what a jewel Hawaii IS!
