I need more time to do all your posts justice, but I arrive here after reading a few on my way to this point of comments: wow! You write so beautifully and I simply want to know more; more about your life in Kazakhstan, and adjusting to a completely different life, the onset of chronic pain, and everything else that matters to you. Congratulations for your collation thus far!
Aww. Thank you, Mya! I sadly lived only 8 years of my life there, but I will write about glimpses of all I remember later on. Thank you for all your lovely comments today. 💕
Thank you for this format! It reminds me of looking at the guide on the back of a fancy box of assorted chocolates. I really enjoy your fiction. It reminds me a bit of Jack Vance.
It's inspiring to hear about your journey from poetry to branching out into various forms of writing. I appreciate the vulnerability in sharing pieces of writing you're proud of, recognizing that the creative process is ever-changing, and growth is a constant. May your writing continue to be a source of solace, discovery, and joy.
How lovely is this?! Not just for us but for you to reflect on the wonderful work you’ve done ❣️ I’ve saved this to peruse more carefully. So happy to have found your writing. (Through Nathan I think?)
Super soft spot for your 15 words posts, Nadia - such wonderful selections: SYZYGY! PENUMBRA! PHOSPHENE! Reading those posts especially reminds me of how magical language is... 🔮🪄💖 Sorceress! 💛⭐🤩
What a wonderful idea to highlight your output! A huge body of work to be proud of, Nadia.
Scrolling through these titles (most I have read, though some I haven't...!) feels like a little trip of nostalgia from the last 10 months. Good vibes 🤗
I paused at "Siren with the soft sign" to remember and marvel at that truly beautiful piece. (I mean, all of them are so good, but that one in particularly has stayed with me x)
Aww, thank you, Nathan! I always appreciate you reading my work. It's so wonderful, we've been in each other's journeys for quite some time now. And I'm grateful for our friendship and the inspiration. I am always so mind-blown by your spectacular work! Hahah. Siren with the soft sign is extra special because of you and Alexander!
Aw, thank you! I'll try to get something out next week (we're facing a possible move across the country so things have been a bit overwhelming lately).

Oh gosh, thank you so much! I never read Vance, but what a compliment! Happy new year to you and your loved ones!

Oh, Nadia. I want to write a poem about your brilliant brain. Thank you for putting all these gems in one place, you spoil us. 💗

So much to explore here! I’m looking forward to diving in, and I must begin with Siren with the Soft Sign. The excerpt!
That makes me tremendously elated. Thank you for your support Kimberly! :')

Thank you so much, Kathleen! I'm delighted to have met you and to be reading your thought-provoking work. For sure through wonderful Nathan! Haha!
Beautiful post, a great idea, too. Which I might steal! ;) For me, it's got to be... *drumroll* ah but you know! 🪻
