    Camp NaNoWriMo Update

    So while I did get sick over the past few days, I'm very happy and relieved to announce that I've started and still intend on finishing +30K for commissions as my Camp NaNoWriMo project. The story that I said I'd publish before the end of March wasn't published because the very talented artist is still working on the cover art, but once they are done, you all will be seeing at least

    March/April Update: Return to Pony

    Yo yo yo, it's been a while since I've done one of these posts and while I've been updating stories every couple weeks at least, it's still not as much as I would like. I had huge burnout as well as being sick towards the end of last year, as well as personal responsibilities that I've been taking care of. And of course, I've recently come to find how hard it has been that I've let both matters

    Slower Commission Times (Dying Laptop)

    Hello, as some of you might’ve noticed, I've had to push back on deadlines and start times for my commissions. While a lot of this is because of my other new job and personal responsibilities, it's also because of a more recent and pressing issue that has only gotten worse as time goes on: my ol' laptop, that has been with me since my high school graduation, has been glitching and breaking down

    Recovering from the Thickness, Sorry, Sickness lol

    Hello everybody, as some of you might've noticed from my previous blog, I've been releasing a lot of stuff written in November from my NaNoWriMo feat and not a lot of stuff written this month. I got really busy with a new job, getting gifts for the holidays, and got really sick over the weekend. And honestly? Just plain old burnout from my ass getting kicked by NaNoWriMo. I'm really happy to say

The Joys of Customer Service · 1:10am Mar 15th, 2023

This isn't a rant post by any means, just tired of working in food service where I have to keep a perfect customer service persona in a job that I'm not the least bit passionate about. I love my coworkers and my family, but I expect moving out from my parents to be one of the best things that'll happen to me because I'll finally be free of their rules and will be able to take a long break from those kind of jobs to properly pursue creative writing both for others and myself.

Everything seems to be going as planned so far, and if it stays that way, it'll all be worth it.

I'm having the same feeling. I look forward to getting my own place as well

Here's hoping to both of us that it goes well 🙂

I work in retail, I can only imagine how bad food service is! At least I can duck into a bathroom when things get too heated.

If only! 😂
On the flip side, I recognize that someone has to be doing these jobs and have been glad to make most of the people I provide that service to very happy. But it's not my dream job and never will be, so I need at least some kind of break from it lol.

perfect customer service persona

Yeah, that gets exhausting quick. Especially when it's incredibly rude customers that want impossible things. Like no, I can't make you an iceless Ice Shaken Espresso.

This isn't as bad, but asking them if they want a combo, they say no, and proceed to order everything that comes in a combo. Even explaining what is in the combo beforehand doesn't work, they'll still do this 😭
