i dont think i'll ever finish this saddies

www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oC8... SCREAMINGGGGGG, YESSSSSS!!!!

Star Citizen: a game where you'll spend the first 20 hours asking yourself, "is this game just super buggy? or is there just a really steep learning curve?", and the answer is: BOTH

SCREAMING INTERNALLY Not me messaging my boss "hey I need to take a sick day"... and accidentally typing a d instead of an s in "sick"....

Now that my last winter crochet project is all wrapped up, it's time to refocus on other creative projects! Top of mind: - finalizing design for new Vtuber persona - finishing book 1 edits, getting new material for book 2+ down - launching Pathfinder campaign

When the scarf takes so long to crochet, you can see the difference in age from the starting end vs the finishing end:

Just got some new spinning fiber after finishing my starter hank, and wow! I don't know what that first fiber was, but in comparison, this is a dream to spin. My test yarn is so much slimmer and more consistent, and I love the colors so so much! Forest Fruits carded Corriedale from CupidFalls

Update: THEY SAID YES YAAAAY now I gotta finish putting all my lingering ideas down on paper!

Ughhhh why am I so shy???? I have written a message like 6 times over the last six months to ask an artist buddy if they'd do a character design consult, and chickened out of sending it every time....

AHHH I AM SO PROUD LOOK AT ITTTT I finished this lil toddler cape! I've been loving this rainbow yarn from Ice yarns and found this cute plaid cape pattern to show it off. I can't wait to give it to her!

PEASANTS, ALL OF YOU You dare even think yourself WORTHY of placing a gentle smooch on MY paw? HA!

LOOK AT MY FIRST HOMESPUN YARN, DON'T YALL THINK IT'S BEAUTIFUL 🥰🥰🥰 (btw the etiquette here is like meeting a newborn - you tell the mama it's the most beautiful baby in the world, even if it has a pug face and lumpy head)

Our troublemaker Vivi knows she is not allowed on the counter... so she found a loophole. cats amirite

What dark thoughts pass through the mind of cat???

Reworking the prologue (again lol) to be a bit more ✨️ magical ✨️ How many rewrites do yall do for those starting chapters?

A third feral kitten came to us for fostering today! She's a very shy girl, and likes hiding in dark,warm places... like inside my bathrobe lol. Meet Miso!

Back to work full time tomorrow, and I've finally beaten the cold that's destroyed my energy the last few weeks! I have some book 1 rewrites to prioritize, then plan to start a focused agent hunt while working to finish up book 2. Slow and steady, win race, etc etc, right?

Got feral fosters! We rate them "serrano" on the spicy level... hot enough to pop off, but not actually gonna hurt ya. Such cutiessss

The moment my latest anime binge lost me: "Yeah these two were just openly plotting to sell their unconscious party member into sex slavery, but they used to be a starry-eyed new adventurers who just lost their way to greed, so let's let them off without real consequence!" Wtf. NO. BAD PROTAG.

The Too-Perfect Saint: review Overly sweet, a bit predictable, but packed with good feels and schadenfreude. I connected to the hardworking, capable MC that struggles with social norms, faces rejection, but through that, finds her place in the world. The sister's arc was stellar too. Enjoyable!

Finished watching the Water Magician S1- spoilers! Anyone picking up on some oddness with our MC? 👀 Most isekai reincarnations have a moral sensitivity from their previous life and have to relearn it, but this one feels underdeveloped from the start. Too much isolation, power corruption, or...?

Finally stickered up my laptop! My last one was decorated pretty eclectically, using stuff I picked up at random over the years. This time I decided to ✨️ c u r a t e ✨️ them to my personal taste, and it feels like it's really mine now!

Talking with my friend on how much we love Nerds Clusters going through the checkout line, and the cashier instantly clocks both me and my friend as autistic/ADHD based solely on our candy preferences. I didn't realize that was a tell but I sort of love it

Had my first successful three-day workweek! Looking like I'll be able to keep at my job, whew. I'm making more progress on writing as well, so good things there. Still got a ways to go health-wise, and I'm definitely suppressing my worries there... but I really hope I can keep improving from here!

Grimshire: the game review Imagine Stardew Valley, with a Beatrix Potter aesthetic... and a mean streak. Wholesome and fun, but harrowing as well. Loved the heck out of my first playthrough, and can't wait to see how it evolves! store.steampowered.com/app/2238470/...

Current marching orders: Rest. Even though I am so gd tired of not being able to do things. WAH. Still, getting a bit of writing done every day now, so I take the W's where I can get 'em!

In every conceivable way: yes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCAd...

On one hand: Getting marginally more writing done. On the other: Energy levels crashing, feeling worse than last week. Sigh. I just wanna function again....

Finally starting to commit some of the mountain of story developments for Wayward into my story outline...! KEEP IT GOIN BRAIN, YOU HEALIN GOOD

Thank yall for 500 followers!!! As a reward, have a joke: What do you call someone that reads all your stories, leaves glowing reviews wherever you post, and cheers for all you do? Your write-or-die 🏍📚💙

I have such a backlog of scenes and plot to write as soon as my headspace heals!!! Thank god my partner lets me talk his ear off about it, or I might actually combust from sheer frustrated need to create

I may actually have the coolest doctor in the world. Discussing my autistic burnout, they tell me to let my brain rest, find a hyperfocus. I mention a game has helped... they proceed to ask what game, get hyped because it suits their tastes, and recommend others. Cried hard after, felt so seen

First I've been able to draw since I started my medical leave - new Vtuber concept that my brain's been cooking! Concept is an insomnia pixie/anti-Sandman, who is born anew from a chrysalis each stream. Any design pointers from my artsy pals?

Just a lil life update: I'm on a medical leave for the next couple months. Everything is under control and such, but if I'm unusually quiet, it's because my resources are already overtaxed handling it all. Can't even do any writing or drawing rn, just don't have the oomph lol. Love to all!

WIP update! Only a few more details for lineart left. Pip has clothes, so fancyyyy! I realized the chest/waist belt I'd added had to layer under the cloak... wah. But I finally replaced the front buckles and am so happy with the new fasteners. Also, leg pouch/knife! #art #illustration #OC #fantasy

WIP update - whew! Lots more details baked in now, and our lil Nuralli buddy Pip is back in the lineart (though very underdressed for the moment.) Still more details to add and I'm not fully happy with the cloak front buckles still, but it's getting closer! #fantasy #art #illustration #OC

Another character design for my upcoming story, We've Gotta Kill Steve! Within minutes of meeting Forge, you can tell she's too well-bred to be slumming it with a smelly adventuring party. But needs must- she has a dream she's saving up for, one that's outcasted her from her family....

Latest WIP! Lines are coming along nicely! We've got both wings, a cloak that has full movement, and a bit more motion in the hair as well. Still lots to refine (and we still need to add Norui's sidebag and passenger haha), but happy with how things are developting! #art #fantasy #illustration

I illustrated the cover for Sunneh's novella! :- D Check out her work through the links on her post!!

Two big shares for todays' #WaywardWednesday - not only is the FINAL CHAPTER for the novella up on Patreon and RoyalRoad!!!, but also, the cover is done! So many thanks to @swampyirrana.bsky.social for her amazing art, I love it I love it I love ittt! Links below! #novella #fantasy #adventure

⭐ Friends & followers both new & old! I need your help creating my first Bsky starter pack, focusing on #TTRPG Mexican 🇲🇽 people! If you know or are a 🇲🇽 creative who & writes, illustrates, reviews, streams, etc TTRPG / #DnD stuff, please reply👇🏼👇🏼! #RPGLatAm #Rolenespañol #Lodelrol #Rolentuidioma

Current WIP! I've dreamed of being able to do illustrations for each chapter of Wayward, and now that I'm in a full on arting mood, it's the perfect time to get started! (With Norui as one of the MCs, I'm gonna get real good at drawing wings, real fast, aren't I?) #OC #fantasy

Been back to daily writing and it feels hella good! Turns out when you force yourself to write in a way unnatural to you (in my case, linearly), it eventually saps your ability to keep creating. Feels like a lesson I keep having to learn... maybe it'll stick this time!

Overheard at the cafe: "I work at [grocery store]. I dismember animals for a living. [pause] They come to me already dead, don't worry." (Bonus: This conversation had the appearance of a possible first date.)

tfw you gave a character a pun for a name, but can no longer recall if it was intentional or if you just made yourself groan at your own bad joke

What tropes can you expect in my upcoming sci-fi romantasy, Star*Relic? Well, here ya go! ✨⭐️✨ Think the Netflix animated series She-Ra and the Princesses of Power meets the Horizon games with some KPop Demon Hunters songs & energy thrown in! 💖 #WritingCommunity #WLW #QueerWriters #WIP #Sapphic

Kinda fell off the snips in the last week while I've been fighting some summer sads, but no way am I staying away for long! I love the #WIPSnips community, and sharing the characters I love so much with yall <3 Question though: What do yall think about reusing snips for different prompts? Y/N?

Another OC from "We've Gotta Kill Steve""... Amelie the archer! Poor Lee always picks the wrong moments to try overcoming her shyness. Her social awkwardness almost lets you forget her kill count from her days as an army conscript. But when she picks up her bow, believe me- you'll remember.
