The sun, moon, stars, and hearts of all WriteOffTopia have aligned in a never before seen triple helix shape, finally allowing the Dread Prompt "Ot" to escape its prison beneath the long forgotten dreadwaves. So, if you want a chance to write some silly or serious or possibly category non-conforming horse words, now's a good time.

And more importantly to me because calendar breakpoints are functionally arbitrary: new story going up soon. Soon-ish, it's in queue, however long that takes. Nothing too fancy or too long, just a mildly expanded version of one of my recent WriteOff entries.

I self banned myself from FimFic until I could get around to watching the finale. Of course, I had to watch all of season 9 first, so it took me a while. I had nearly 60 notification to go through and, full disclosure, I kind of skimmed them because...

My heart hurts. I physically ache.

I'm not going! Woo!

So, it's about that time again. Figure I'd plug the WriteOff event before it actually got started this time. Seems helpful. Anyway, this is one of our odd rounds, called "pic2fic." Instead of writing a story based on a prompt, we'll be having art submissions based on the chosen prompt and then writing our stories based on one (or more) pieces of the submitted art.

It'll be fun, so don't be a stranger; especially if you're an artist.

I'm going. It took months of saving and some cars not exploding in my direction, but I did it. I'll be in Baltimore from July 26th to July 30th.

So, yeah. I'll see you there, or if not, I'll take plenty of pictures.

The last story I posted, per the author's note, was expanded from an entry for a regular competition called "The WriteOff." There's a new round starting... a few hours ago actually, so pardon the late announcement. Stories are anonymous for the duration of voting and review, so you can be sure any feedback you get is genuine.

So, on something of a whim I bought this drawing tablet. I've always wanted to be better with art, and I have access to the full (but old) Photoshop suite, so I figured what the hell, time to learn. But, my hands have the steadiness of a meth addict sucking on a jackhammer, so I 100% need digital aid in this pursuit. I spent the last several hours playing around with it,

Hey folks. All, like, 5 of you. There's this YouTube channel called The Barcast. They do lengthy author interviews (and occasionally real voice actors!), art streams, fic readings, and some other cool stuff. Long story short, with the upcoming changes to the YouTube rules, if they remain at less than 1,000 subs by February 20th they'll be demonetized.

The good news:
I took my first Writeoff medal this week! It's a bronze medal, but I still feel really good about it. Third out of thirty-seven entries is pretty good. Though, if we organize that list by preliminary results, I would have nailed gold :\ But, finals are what counts.

The bad news:
It was an original fic round, so no publishing here! Ah haha, go figure.
