Finally on the way back to my dorm, but I spent time yesterday fixing the downloads page on my website, which was fun. I've got an idea for some morbid fiction in the form of a questionnaire that I wanna work on soon.

Thaaaat sounds like an interesting writing format.

Reminds me a bit of some creepypasta that come in the form of text conversations and such.

Still working on cataloging comics. I've got all the ones that were in boxes in my.comics.org, but I pulled a bunch out of my bookshelves to add. And a bunch of them need to be indexed on the GCD. I've already added a one-shot as a series and I have an annual to do as well.

... and I ordered some back issues

My catalog on my.comics.org - https://my.comics.org/collection/24691/

Read Usagi Yojimbo Ice and Snow.

Yay for helping to catalog! *And* a great reason to read lots of comics.

Just sketching scenes at the moment for a new story.

Oooh that part is always fun. Good luck with it!

Quilting! Ish.

I am still sick. I finally hauled my sorry ass to the urgent care and got drugs for what seems to be a sinus infection. I am already feeling TONS better. But not good enough to cut into the good fabric.

I made a couple of disappearing 9-patch blocks for science. I really like the effect and I think I'm going with these for the big Hawaiian shirt quilt. I have a post on my journal with pictures.

I'm now at the stage of making paper mockups to prove the cutting layout I think I'll need. I refuse to have any of the prints come out upside down!

Good work on doing the necessary health thing! Illness does not make that easy.

Fascinating on the quilt patterns... It looks soothing to mess around with.

My create and bitch starts in about 5-ish minutes? I'm going to be doing some cross stitch patterns or something, maybe actually cross stitch? I dunno.

But, I've finished the fic that ate February. So, that's done, at least.

However, I dunno what's going on the rest of the week, since I fly out to Cleveland on Friday.

[dianec42]

Yay for having a create and bitch! (Create and berate? Hmm...)

Grats on finishing the fic. Good luck with the Cleveland trip!

After weeks of fiddling, I FINALLY got the second eye mostly right on the axolotl, and got it stuffed, and the back closed up!

[dianec42]

Nice work! That sounds satisfying.

I've been trying to type up what I've written of a novel, and going back and forth on whether I like it or it's the worst thing anyone has ever come up with. So far I have about 60,000 words typed.

[dianec42]

Keep going! Getting the typing finished sounds hard. You can do it!

[alexseanchai]

I am so close to finishing Jeu des princesses

*cheers you on*

Looked through a printing website and found out they also do bookmarks and pamphlets/brochures. Familiarised myself with the custom image selection process. Exciting.

There are folders, too, but they come in bulk packs starting at numbers like $500 for 100 folders. But now I know it's a Thing, and can shop around.

Yay for progress! Good luck.
