Good things :) · 1:30am May 15th, 2021
Weight loss continues, had to put another knot on the drawstring of my sweatpants! Grandpa is back to being as independent as before so now I just have to check in once a day to see if he needs anything done. Mom is also losing weight, and after finding out she's got some blood sugar issues she's changed a lot of her diet and has it back under control. Hopefully this means in the future I'll be able to write and get a job without worrying about them so much, just like things used to be when I was writing what I have of Reunion so far!
Also the way I organize my writing is a mess. I think it's about time I shift over to using something like Google docs so I can share it out as needed without having to worry about file types and all that jazz. Bonus would be automatic backups so I don't repeat that one incident where I lost 2,000+ words of work on Reunion because of a BSOD on my old laptop... actually that's two computers back, so it's my old, OLD laptop.
Ironic that it still works while the laptop that replaced it just died out of nowhere one day.
I think I'll start using design documents going forward too, but I'll keep those local. I've been writing solely from memory for the entirety of Reunion so far and one ends up forgetting a few things they hinted at tens of thousands of words ago. It won't be an outline so much as a list of characters, locations, items, and events I can reference when needed. Hopefully that doesn't spiral into spending so much time world building that I forget to write the story.
Anyway just wanted to fire out another update and share my increasingly positive mood as of late. See you later!
That's good.
That is fantastic news man, I’m really happy for you
So glad to hear things are looking up ^.^
Whooot!!!
