Hi! This is my advertisement making a call for artists to join my MerMay 2026 Art Jam! This Jam doesn't require you to draw something everyday, it only hopes to encourage you to make more mermaids and stories! It's the 2nd Jam I've ever hosted so any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Part of this Jam is that I'm hoping to gather the attention of other artists/writers to boost their community presence over on itch.io!

If you like Mermaids and other sea creatures, I highly encourage joining! If you've been looking for a project to work on, I hope you'll take this as your sign to make one!

MerMay Art Jam 2026

A game jam from 2026-03-21 to 2026-06-01 hosted by Blushinmoon. What began as a Mermaid pun has evolved into a global art challenge that man

Worldcat is my bestie and my one true love!! Not only does it tell you what library a book is at, but it also price compares different used book sites against each other for easy view! It's how I got Tarot For the Master for $10!!

Oh, and since I have your attention: z-library (books and textbooks) and sci-hub (gatekept scientific journal articles.) I just ripped a textbook for class off z-library and snatched a required reading from sci-hub. Life is good and education should be accessible at every stage and station of life.

Some are born perverts, some achieve perversion, and some have perverts thrust inside them

Writing advice from my uni teachers:

If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.

Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.

Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.

Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.

This is legit good writing advice, especially the first bullet point! In playwriting class we did a bit where every bit of dialogue had to be an accusatory question and it was glorious.

Republicans control the House of Representatives, the Senate, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court. After initially refusing to meet with democratic leaders, Trump posted an AI-generated racist video of Jeffries & Schumer instead of actually negotiating with them over a potential budget deal.

Update to add: Trump & Congressional Republicans are trying to use the shutdown to push anti-trans legislation. Democrats are trying to use it to extend healthcare funding that the Trump-Republican "One Big Bill" cut earlier this year. If you live in the US or are a US citizen, please call your senator in support of the trans community & healthcare funding.
