Wanted to give my Runalong a visual form for others to see

I've always seen the same one. Does anyone else see the same form every time or do y'all see different ones each time?

What shape did your Runalong take?

It was a humanoid shape, aka running on two legs.

It was a animal shape, aka running on four legs.

It was a bird shape, aka it didn't run but flew along.

Secret 4th option, say in the tags

I didn't have a Runalong

A Runalong is the imaginative shape following a car/train that has high speed, mostly seen by children and/or those with big imagination.

I want to chase cars.

I want to feel the ground beneath my feet/paws/talons.

I want to feel the wind dance around me, ruffling feathers/fur/hair/smoke.

I want to RUN.

2023 Writing/Stories Look-Forward

thanks to everyone who's read and liked and commented and tagged and sent in asks for my writing this year!

today i sat down to sketch out a vague--and definitely not set in stone plan for 2023--and I thought i'd share it with you guys, from a very high level and with the caveat that it will likely not be followed to the letter as i always inevitably bite off more than i can chew

but i lik to shoot high! lol so here's what i've got

Main goal: finishing the first draft of Nothing's Wrong with Dale and getting it all posted. this is the goal i'm most confident about and will lik, cannibalize other parts of my plan to achieve. i also have some like bonus offshoots for Dale, but those will likely get posted after the story is over and so are not part of the plan

Short Story goals: I plan to finish both Selfish (f!naga) and Free Piano: Haunted (m!spirit). I want to put out my Sci-Fi oneshot Snapped (m!alien) and the three part Seen (f!deity) - both of which i posted sneak peeks of a little while ago for that 'WIPs u didn't finish this year' ask meme.

Then it gets a little fuzzy - i'll either do two shorter 5 parts fics (both with winged monsters f&m) or one longer fic (probably Goddaughter or Quid Pro Quo - both m!demon fics), depending on what i'm feeling like for lik April-May ish. My summer fic will be about a runalong. In the fall/winter, I'll post the rest of Free Piano: Haunted and Feral (f!hellhound).

Choosing these from all my ideas was super hard, but I think i'm happy with what i picked (and all are technically subject to change).

At least, that's the plan.

As far as the short term, i plan to finish off some shorter things now (Selfish, Snapped, and Seen - idk y they all start with 'S' lol) in January. After that February and March are literally the busiest time of year for me at work and this will not be an easy busy season so I might literally post nothing (which is another reason that part of my plan is so up in the air). I will be working a minimum of 6 days a week, 55 hours a week - likely more than that so my brain will not be up for much writing during that time.

Hiatus: Last year I was able to keep posting Nothing's Wrong with Dale for some of January, but that's not going to be the case this year - putting up half of the next 4 part arc and then not finishing it until April would be unfair imo - both to you for the cliffhanger and to me because i will be able to write them far better if i write all oft he at once/in a row. So no more Dale until April, I'm afraid. The only reason I'll be able to post some of the other things at all in January is because most of them are already partially done where as next Dale is not started.

Feel free to send in any asks about upcoming/current stories! Happy New Year!

(please note that this is me, if anything, overestimating how much I'll be able to write and asking me to change my mind about say, Dale, to be more frequent etc will not work)

When I was younger, I used to imagine monsters running alongside the car. I decided to make stats (and a little sketch!) for them.

The runalong’s more sinister relative, the runaway. The hunt those who travel in forbidden places, patrolling ancient paths to keep secrets at rest.

[mischiefisme-amess]

Me when I’m drawing a funky little fantasy beast I made up and realise that a creature that is something between a cat, a big dog and a deer is basically just like… a kangaroo?

A really fucked up kangaroo, but… still like surprisingly kangaroo.
