Wild how often when something reads slow or wrong or clunky the copyediting answer is “just cut it.” Usually the intention stays clear and the writing just gets sharper. Maybe I’m just an over-writer. Brevity is the soul of wit and all that, but idk actually also clarity is the soul of wit, too.

Finally revealing the true face of the genius behind the seminal work “What Was Stolen”.

Big update over on tiktokkkkkk www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8GtFHAV/

Almost done copy-editing. I did enjoy coming across this banger. SPOILERS FOR WHAT WAS STOLEN BY THE WAY!!

Gorgeous, important reminders for me too!!!! Thank you Vana 💙

I am on chapter 28 (TWENTY-EIGHT!!!) of line-editing this book. I am so dang close, I really do just need like one more week of locking in and then I’ll have done it and can start transferring all the edits to the doc. Then it’s hardback city. It’s audio drama city. The train will be MOVING okay!!

Just sent these bookmarks off to someone with VERY good taste and got ANOTHER order to fill by this week! Wow, I love my WWS girlies so much. Easily the coolest people in the fandom, surely.

This sweet little shirt went out to a wonderful Blaze fan somewhere in the world today🥹 I was so so thrilled to see this one get sold, I love when a random, quick little shirt I made happens to find it’s perfect fan!! Blaze rep forever

Spending some real, earnest time with the next Sonic fanfic tonight. I am so happy. I love you, four day weekends. Never leave me. Can I just say, already quite a few bangers in here??? I’m so excited.

It can be a single character (even note which host you’d like to write them if you want!), a ship, a genre, an AO3 tag you think is funny! Whatever!! Go buck wild and your suggestion may get picked by the wheel of destiny for our next collaborative oneshot episode!!

And another one!! Thank you for the recent bookmark purchases! Writing these thank you notes and sending these packages off brings me such genuine joy because I know they’re going to the hands of my actual, real life readers which is crazy🥹

Another angel (WWS reader) got their wings (bookmark order)🥰

Wowwww I love this so freaking much. What an honor to have words inspire your year, you made them look beautiful on paper and I’m sure you made them look beautiful on you, too🥹

Plug that I post personal TikToks occasionally! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8gmgupa/

Another super special order makes its way to another super special shipper🥰 I’m shocked it took this long for a Sonadow commission to come my way, but loved making this. I must enable people to rep their ships via cutie girly pop flower crop tops!!! Get yours @TheEmbroiderBeehive on Etsy!

I was going to release a joke chapter of What Was Stolen today but then I got too tired at work and also the idea of playing even harmless jokes exhausts my tender heart so… you guys got lucky this year be thankful I’m not a serial joker. Be thankful I don’t got that dawg in me.

Our first Sleepover Special is HERE!! Reckless driving, broken promises of glory, memes, singing, and two broken women—it’s the ultimate Sonic Racing Crossworlds experience! youtu.be/9TkZ903hWaA

I'm having so much fun starting to write on this new project!!!! What joy!!! I love being here, at the start of the process where it's all for my eyes only and it all feels like putting in the work to mine a raw gem from deep in a vein of earth that only I have access to!!!

Writing a bug character for the first time and I have unlocked a whole new slew of “how to describe that part of them” problems. Quills or fur = hair! Sure, no brainer! Wtf is the hair Jewel has going on. Her head? Her Elytra? Her… shell???? What the hell man.

New desktop background unlocked

I’m a simple woman with simple delights

Best part of the process is always the crew drip, easily

I am so thankful Bluesky has drafts now. I saved so many bits and bobs of dialogue and description in my Twitter drafts back in the day, it really does feel like part of the process. Little treasure chest separate from the notes app. Idk, I need it.

I’m just so thankful to get to experience creating this story. Enjoy, and I’ll see everyone back here on Feb. 14th! archiveofourown.org/works/428420...

Heyyyy everybody! There is a general strike happening today in the US and in solidarity, along with other acts of withdrawal, I will be postponing the release of this chapter until tomorrow. Resist together, and fuck 🧊!!!!!

Firm handshake between business pals
