JOIN ME IN MY WEIRDLY CASUAL SPIRITUAL SERVICE D/s KINK.
...in all seriousness, my preferred 24/7 lifestyle choice would basically be "someone sees the fictional work I do as oriented toward the sacred, and steps in to do all the support work necessary to allow me to devote time to writing and refining my ability to write and developing a spiritual practice around writing, and other than that, we're basically equals, and I can occasionally mentor them in things". It's vaguely informed by Raven Kaldera and his boy, but I don't get a lot out of ritual trappings. And I tend to want to deal with people who are more or less on my level; if they're not, why am I bothering to engage with them?
Basically, in a lot of contexts, I'd be the worst Master ever; I don't like huge power splits, or impinging on people's autonomy, etc. But I do find shades of deference, and service-in-service-to-service, really compelling. And I find the idea of writing as a form of service to the larger world compelling as well. (I'm still not over that one time I got honorlisted for the Tiptree Award. I desperately want to win it someday. Even get shortlisted or longlisted. That'd be amazing.)
