You know, it WAS fun to be freed from the cold grip of my awful phone for a while, but I actually do need to find that thing and it's getting into weird that I can't territory.

Wacky islands I make up feature heavily in the One Piece fic wips, and the plan is when I can get away with it, to name the fics after the islands arc style.

So far I have Pop Brocade and Big Fruit. And you know what? I am equally proud of both. Good job, me.

The 'ingredients you can pronounce means it's healthy' line implies a world in which the kind of nutrition a person requires scales with their biology education and grasp of phonics. Which isn't true, of course, but sure would imply some interesting worldbuilding if it were

"Potassium cyanide. Arsenic trioxide. Polonium 210. Tetrachlorodibenzodioxin," I say, smugly and with full confidence, before downing the glass of wine my political rival insisted on pouring for me. Seconds later, she watches with a smirk as I collapse writhing to the ground, in the knowledge that I never could hit that "R" in "pinot noir" quite right

Part of the reason you can't write is you don't know what you're writing yet. The way to fix this is to write.

I'm sorry, I didn't DESIGN the system, I'm figuring it out as I go!

I constantly alternate between “grey” and “gray” and I think this adds flavor.

honestly one of my favorite things about fanfic is when you can see the canon influences come out in really subtle ways. like a canon line thats mentioned once as a throwaway is suddenly the entire premise for a fic or it influences the characterization or something. its just so cool to see how people weave their ideas around a source material, especially if its not a detail i'd thought about before

Tagged by @melusinemuse. Thank you!

Last book read: Last book finished was Doctor Thorne by Trollope (still idly revolving this one). Last book read, aside from perpetual dippings in and out of W. R. Gingell works, is Empire of Silence by Christopher Ruocchio (I am 140 pages in and still unsure what this book is about/like).

Last song: Desire by Deas Vail (from @in-echoes-forever's Shattered World playlist)

Last movie: I think Project Hail Mary.

Last series: Gargoyles, but that is essentially tied with Batman TAS, since I'm watching through both right now with a friend. (Gargoyles is a rewatch and Batman is mostly new for both of us.)

Salty or Sweet: Sweet, but most sweet things should contain salt.

Coffee or tea: Coffee. I have some cold brew in the fridge right now and I've been making iced mochas :)

Working on: My City Between fic, improving daily habits, prepping for the Church history and Latin 1 classes I'll be teaching in the fall... And talking about my OCs more readily.

Last book read: OH! @incomingalbatross actually blogged about this one. The last book I really read through was Jinx by Sage Blackwood. Loved it. Currently I have a pile of books I'm trying to get into, but nothing has hooked me yet.

Last song: Wildflowers by Dolly Parton

Last movie: Hold on I might have to copy you there. I don't think I have watched a move since Project Hail Mary.

Last series: Just wrapped up the latest King of the Hill season a couple days ago. I was so ready to stay grumbly and rock-kicky about the revival but the final episode was extremely cathartic and set things up so well, I have some high hopes for the next season.

Salty or Sweet: I think salty as a general rule. But I have had a sweet tooth lately.

Coffee or tea: Coffee. I have been experimenting with homemade syrups and have discovered I really like fruit syrup in shaken espressos. I want to try honey shaken espresso.

Working on: A weeks long closet de-cluttering/pick stuff up off my general floor project, various fanfiction quick drafts scattered throughout many notebooks, an on-going fight against fleas ATTACKING my 13 year old dog, solid form drawing practice, and a tote bag.

Thank you for the tag!

I went to the McDonalds Down the Street before running a brief supermarket errand and may I say it's much easier to resist the Tasty Treats when you are already kind of full because the fries.

In My Hobbies Torment Me news, I'm trying box rotation exercises. I hate them. >:( In the My Hobbies Keep Me Sane News, I do like drawing doors better than boxes. :/

My indignant fit throwing posts need to be diluted. I gotta quickly think of some inane rambling about headaches, or the unrelated amount of sleep and water I have had.

Dang, this almost feels vintage. I'm so used to this stuff showing up in reblogs that an ask surprises me.

"If you don't pronounce the name as if you're a native speaker, new consonant blends and all, you Clearly Have No Respect" and "Oh man, your name is so Foreign, I'mma just call you Joey-Jill." has to have some reasonable middle ground.

PERSONALLY. I think it's called People Will Have Their Own Accent and it will Come Through When They Say Your Name, but I haven't had my coffee yet and I'm saying it through gritted teeth. And since I'm going with the no-coffee-gritted-teeth-post, I'm gonna stress that the examples are intentionally extreme.

See, there's the media I enjoy, there's the media I nest in, there's the media that transfixes me, and there's the media no different than what you could have gotten if you had sat me down and had painstakingly tailored it to help people Get To Know Me.
