Issue 2

[shang-qinghuas-naptime]

Ah so I should probably explain for all of my like, 20 followers since it is almost April. First I was really sick for a month, and then the zine I was supposed to be apart of started… and really that shouldn’t have been a problem because the almanac takes like a week to write tops… but anyway it was a fucking disaster. I have lost my energy to be involved with zines right this second. I didn’t even know what zines were when I started writing this, but everyone informed me this was one and unfortunately now, even the thought of working on a zine makes me vaguely nauseous. I will come back to this… it just might take a few more weeks of mental recovery.

An Ding Almanac for this month is delayed for sick reasons. It is… 92% finished??

But yea, this lowly author has spent the last month at Qian Cao and is… behind…

PSA: lack of naps leads to sickness. Take more naps!!

And if anyone prevents you from naptime? They shouldn’t. It’s illegal. Naptime is a nap given right!!

An Ding Almanac can now be found on Ao3 here!!

Is it possible to run a campaign against the Bai Zhan peak lords for nap-tome ban? Nap times are necessary for a functioning disciple and peak lords.

The Naptime Normalcy Campaign will be underway shortly to petition the Powers That Be, a.k.a. the unrighteous gods ruling Cang Qiong with an iron fist, for naptime rights to be evenly distributed on all Cang Qiong Sect Peaks. If it fails as expected, a work strike will be conducted thereafter where all work will cease for an entire sichen for everyone to cry in dismay. Please join An Ding’s protest is solidarity.

It turns out procrastinating until four days before the deadline is a Bad Idea ™ so ANYWAY! An Ding Peak is running smoothly lately and has no problems at all!! None whatsoever!! This is exactly how a peak should run!!

An Ding Almanac - Issue 2 Buried Bedtime Ballad

[shang-qinghuas-naptime]

Is the next almanac late? Yes. Yes it is. Will it be out this week? Also yes. The lateness here is just a lesson for you all to learn about how overworking administration workers and not providing them with regularly scheduled naps and coffee is a crime 🙂‍↕️

What does the An Ding almanac suggest for efficient handling of paperwork? The lord of a peak I shall not name dumped me with his paperworks and dissapeared into his house. I'm not even his head disciple anymore!

Hi yes! Sorry for the wait! An Ding has been experiencing some technical difficulties I was absolutely not taking a nap and forgot. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this delay!!

As you can see, we at An Ding know exactly what to do when we have a lot of paperwork to do!! We cry in a messy puddle of depression noodles and then we nap about it because naps fix everything!! Don't believe me? Try it! Go take a nap 😎

Alternatively, we suggest starting an assembly line! Gather all the junior disciples together (bribe them with treats) and have each one do one task on each page and pass it down the line. Sign the final cop and take naps in shifts!

Obviously, nothing could go wrong with this!!

Does the mysterious editor have any advice for this poor head disciple, whose Shifu seems determined to injure himself all the time? This shijie can only struggle to wrestle him away from the armed children!!

This unnamed editor who absolutely has no name don't question it has divined that your Shifu is out of control. I'm so sorry. There's no hope form him. You're just gonna have to pack your bags, change your name, and move to another realm of existence before you're consumed by the chaotic gremlins he has birthed into this world and turned into an adrenaline junkie yourself. This fate is inevitable 😞

What hour is the most optimal for nap-times? Is it teg afternoon, evening, or some other hour of the day?

We at An Ding have a pending poll that shall be run to ask the question to the Cang Qiong masses at large.

In the meantime! Enjoy this adorable naptime propaganda cuteness!! Did you know this is optimal hampsters puddle cuddle happiness??

What does the An Ding almanac suggest for writers who have a very, very passionate hater on their tail? I just want my characters to be gay...

Thank you for your ask anon. This is a very distressing topic you have brought to light.

In A Ding Peak Lord’s ample experience (I know because I asked him myself), you gotta make them gayer. Make those haters hate harder!! Make them work for it!! If they want to be a hater medalist at the hater Olympics, they need a regular workout and exercise regime!! Don’t be afraid to help them reach their hating dreams with ✨style✨

And remember! You’re doing society a valuable service!
