So, This Came Out Sooner Than I Intended · 1:06am Dec 23rd, 2019
So, if for some reason you're part of Jinglemas but reading my posts before you checked up on what's up: there was a *slight* change of plans and you should check that out, like, now.

My last blog post, we talked about some railroad slang. Like, you don’t go to dinner, you go for beans. Pull out a drawbar, you pulled a lung; if you get the draft timbers, too, you got the secret works. Heaven help you if you go in the ditch.
At last we can unveil our first riffing project under our new banner... and it's Chatoyance. It's a marvel we haven't covered her before, but she's so divisive and volatile a topic that we couldn't resist. Our inaugural riff of F/F/T3K15, of "Ten Minutes: Aftermath," can be found right here. Clench your butts, people, because a lot of 'em are getting hurt.
So far, March has been more than a little crazy. In between a job search, a Search & Rescue callout that lasted until 5 AM, a network failure at work, and a short-notice trip to help my parents with their taxes, my writing schedule has gotten completely shot. I'm finally sitting down at a coffee shop for the first time in a week, and I'm too distracted to add words to stories. So I might as well justify tonight's cuppa by passing on some positive karma.

It's certainly going to take me a while and then some to read all of the stories that were published recently. I'm not doing too good; I'll have a blog about that sooner or later. Until then, know that I have some updates for Marigold's story that have been edited and are waiting for readers. The story is nearing the minimum length for a novel and has had so much effort poured into

And each time it's awesome.
Why the fuck is my mood going to crap when my life is so much better than it has been in a while? I'm slowly losing my patience. I don't condone bullshit of any kind, and I can only put up with it for so long. I'm angry and crying at the same time and it's making my head hurt. I just want the truth, even if it's something I don't want to hear. I'm a big girl. I don't need things sugarcoated. As long as it's honest, it's OK. Tell me that I'm a bitch, or that I try too hard. It's
Just yesterday, I mentioned a story that I was planning to bring back from the dead. Thanks to a recent burst of productivity and a fast editor, I've been able to do just that. I always go into a story with the intent to finish it, and I'm pleased to bring back another canceled fic. It's a fully-outlined story that I haven't touched since 2017... until yesterday. While the outline for the story already exists (along with the old version of the prelude) in Missing Pages, there will be a
