    @xvz: I've barely tapped 3k words lol xD so kinda behind schedule
    I like to pretend I need everything planned out, but honestly, my best work happens when I have a vague idea and I just see where the characters and natural up&down of the story takes me! so I'm a planster as nanowrimo ppl would say, mix between planner and panster (who writes by the seat of their pants)

    yeaaahhh I'm just like retreating into a "plz don't" shell rn
    the only thing I know about elections is Cori Bush is a congresswoman for Missouri now! wahoo


    @totalanimefan: cool beans, thanks~
    I'm writing a novel I've been want to for years, it's about a trio and their giant wolf companions try to end a magically-caused winter that's lasted 6 years now. 2/3 are royalty, and the third is a witch doctor who can speak to the giant wolves
    I'm still working out how to write the summary to this book lol



    for stationery, I've mostly been using jetpens.com, while sometimes buying from notebooktherapy.com and kawaiipenshop.com
    I really want a paperang mini printer for my journals and planner but I'm not ready to spend money on it just yet

    ahh a 2 week poof, I'm back on my bs lol

    @moodybats: how's your family doing? any better, hopefully!

    @ouja akuma: aha! I almost assumed history major, but wasn't sure if you were currently in school for it lol
    I bet historically accurate fiction is harder to come by! o:
    why not? were you that ashamed of what you wrote or did you just fall out of it?

    @xvz: thanks! I'm working on a novel I've been wanting to write for years now
    it's about a princess and a prince from neighboring kingdoms and a witch doctor trying to end a magically-caused winter that's lasted 6 years
    don't have a routine just yet, although that's definitely hindering my progress
    I would write 1 hour in the morning, but I'm a night owl, so I'm gonna try 1 hour at night where I just turn off the TV


    @totalanimefan: ahhh I'm staying away from that for about a week
    can't take the anxiety so I'm on lurk mode irl rn
    but thanks for the vote of confidence for nanowrimo!

    @totalanimefan: lol will do! and not too bad! trying my hand at NaNoWriMo this year
    it's my 3rd or 4th time wanting to do it
    and I want to actually try instead of giving up around day 6 when I've only written like 1k words
    how about yourself?

    @xvz: heck yea that sounds good, send trade plz~

    @totalanimefan: ahhh nah i'm good for now, too low on funds~

    @xvz:

    @moodybats:
    glad your grandfather's back at home and hoping your mom's meds are working! *fingers crossed 🤞🏽
    it sounds stressful! hoping art is a de-stresser for you right now, and not adding to the pile

    @peptobismol:
    not too knowledgable about final fantasy as I never played it o:
    never owned a game console myself until this august and it's just the switch so I can play animal crossing and just dance
    buutttttt that game looks super involved and fun! idk if I'd be able to follow the story line after so long lol

    @moodybats:
    yea that's usually how it goes
    OMG how's your grandfather? how's your mom?
    (do you mind if I ask?)
    my grandma fell in the last few weeks and needed hip surgery, my family's all worried :/

    @ouja akuma:
    ooh history books? are you a history buff? have you tried historical fiction?
    you know, I'm actually writing a Muriel fanfic, but it's a modern au with an OC so it's not too popular
    and I don't blame people, when I read for arcana, I like y/n and non-gendered apprentice stories


Posted in into the night | a hang Posted 5 years ago

    @moodybats: oh wow! i thought you were going as you went originally
    that's probably easier to work with

    if it's too much, you can always just decide to do half of the month!


Posted in into the night | a hang Posted 5 years ago

    @moodybats: how far ahead to you sketch out prompts? o:

    i'll have to go back and scroll WAY down their page to see what you're talking about lol
    but that's good on the new references to work with~


Posted in Short Writing Snippets | F R E E Posted 5 years ago

    @amber lynne: LOL YES I bet that was a challenge!
    a lot of the time, the smaller the limit, the harder it is
    because you have to be concise and purposeful with each word/action/description/etc. you choose!


Posted in into the night | a hang Posted 5 years ago

    @moodybats: yes! exactly how it should be
    take your time, enjoy yourself ^^~
    whenever I do writing challenges, I just take my time
    and if I know I won't do it that day, I just write down the prompt and return at an unforeseen future date lol

    if not this year, definitely try next year!
    and yes, I like the blending and layering on one of their recent portrait wips


    @ouja akuma: yes, I think so too! ao3 is best
    I have a bunch on my save for later list, I'm trying to focus my reading efforts on physical books right now
    (unless I'm in bed already, then I read fanfics and play Choices lol)


    @peptobismol: hello there and welcome!
    ao3 is definitely the best, I love their advanced search layout
    what fandoms are you reading for right now?


Posted in Short Writing Snippets | F R E E Posted 5 years ago

    @amber lynne: yea I wanted to keep it kind of open ended for your creativity
    what was the most difficult part for you o:

    for sure! I was going to ask if you'd want to read it lol
