Do y’all ever research random ass things?
I do. I just found out how winter break works in America to see if my comic idea worked. Being creative is crazy

I just got an idea for a comic but I still have an unfinished drawing a fanfic
Fuckkkkkkk
Uuuuuugggghhhh I’m working on making something but I don’t want to share it before I’ve got things set but I REALLY WANNA SHARE IT!!! (I’m not looking to be convinced to share, btw, I’m just complaining about arbitrary rules I’ve established for myself that I’m going to stick to. I PROMISE. When I get to the point where I allow myself to share, I will.)
This also applies to Tor’kadat, except I’ve got the prologue already posted on AO3, so I just have a very limited range of things about it that I can share 😭😭😭😭
"What's wrong?"
Oh nothing, just thinking about all the artists/writers/songwriters who dreamed of making a living through their talents, but they never blew up on tiktok or YouTube so now they work a regular 9-5 and only think of their dreams in passing.
I’m trying to write a Hotel Dusk fanfiction about the Christmas Eve that kicks off the events of the game from Bradley’s perspective and I’m pretty sure I look like this as I try to figure out where everyone was and in what order they were moving around
Like I’m thiiiiiis close to asking my brother if I can use his PlayStation and get out that Spiderman game and then just designate in my mind “okay so if this is the dock, and this is the warehouse, and this is the station, and as Peter, on foot, it takes me this long to move between them-“
I wish I had the energy to make comics... so many scenes in my head would look better drawn out than describing them.
On the upside, first draft is at around 17,500 words written and a coherent plot is finally starting to form.
did i just go on a hunt for knitting patterns for lap blankets again? yes. because i have no self control. and i've added 3 more blankets to my project list for my uncle, aunt, and cousin. uncle has been ill and undergoing cancer treatments, so fam is worried. and my love language is giving, hence blanket. also blankets are useful. i've got more than enough yarn to do, the real trick is figuring out WHICH yarns to use. i've got some very soft acrylics, i've got superwash merino (and tbh, i kinda don't wanna part with that as i don't know if anyone has allergies to wool of any kind, so), i've got cotton, i've got regular wool, i've got bamboo/cotton blends. endless possibilities! the goal for the coming year however, is to finish the two wip blankets i've currently got going first. THEN i'll let myself work on the others. besides, i have small projects i def need to finish to go with the blankets, and a scarf for aunt. possibly a matching hat, but i'd need to check with to see if she'd actually wear it. being a creative is both a blessing and a curse. so many projects, but feels like never enough time. lemme win the lottery, i'd drop to part time on my job and spend more time knitting, gaming, and vibing.
I don’t know if anyone here is reading my fic “Kira”, but I promise I’m working on the next chapter! Depression has hit me hard again, yay, so it’s been hard to do anything productive.
I’ve put down 2k words and may just upload it as is. This particular chapter I wanted a big thing to occur, but I feel it deserves it’s own giant chapter. Plus, I just haven’t had the brain power. I’ve been stressing about everything. 😅
With my country actively participating in a fucking genocide in supporting a fascist neo-nazi colonial settler regime, day to day life becoming harder with artificial price hikes by corporations that own everything, both presidential candidates being unfit for office and too old, and then just dealing with my own personal baggage has been exhausting. I’ve found it hard to really continue writing these past weeks. It’s hard to do anything knowing my country is collapsing, the world is burning but no one cares, and then watching evil win again and again just really kills motivation.
I’ll never give it up. Writing is one of the few true joys in my life.
Life has just been a lot.
I hope my readers will understand. 😭 I know I’ve made a post like this before, and I know I can be a “negative nancy”, as I’ve been called before, but since I can’t provide an update on Ao3 like I can WP, then I’ll update here! 🥲
