Date: 2025-06-21 09:17 pm (UTC)Now that I’ve edited and sent in my entry for that one-shot contest I mentioned here a while back (and even have new plans for extra content™ when I get to publish it on my own terms), ideally I’d be getting back to the more passionate project that I’ve been sitting on for almost half a year now—especially since, as of the past week’s variably tortured attempts at wrapping up its first draft, I estimate that I’d only need a couple more paragraphs’ worth of prose to push over into editing proper…
…But, as per that aforementioned past week, I’ve been feeling a bit soured on the whole thing despite myself—admittedly, thanks in part to putting an unhealthy amount of stock into reception(/rejection) on Reddit yet again. At the very least, I take solace in a (relative) lack of time pressure for anything more on that front; in any case, perhaps some RAIDOU Remastered ought to lift my Spirit (which I still quirk a brow at the game’s capitalization of)…

Listened to more songs from the classical music collection I downloaded from the internet archive.
Have spent most of my week figuring out a healthier regiment for comicking, including exercise and improved ergonomic friendly set ups.

No writing today/yesterday, but I did laundry.

Date: 2025-06-22 12:07 am (UTC)I'm also looking to write another short fic today because I'm still quite awake and I think I can totally get some drabbles out.
Tomorrow though, many chores to do. Hopefully I'll have some energy to do them
Go you!
Date: 2025-06-22 02:20 am (UTC)That's a great accomplishment.

Date: 2025-06-22 01:59 am (UTC)Other than that, I've been working too hard and plotting my retirement. Oh! And walking into town to buy more DMC 517, 518, and 519. because did I remember I needed those when I was dropping off the mending? I did not.
Today we got our first nice Saturday in absolutely forever. I went on a hike and then visited with some friends and saw their garden.
Tomorrow, THE CHORES!
Wow!

Another accomplishment recently was setting up Poetry Fishbowl themes for late 2025. Next up will be Tuesday, July 1 with a theme of "Weaponized Incompetence and Malicious Compliance." Please drop by then and give me prompts!

We recently finished watching season 3 of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory.
I'm currently reading Anti-Caste Speculative Fiction. Oh, and we killed off Keto Slow Cooker & One-Pot Meals in the car today, but neither of us were impressed and we only marked about 4 things. Before that was Hello! 365 Tomato Recipes which was terrific, with a mix of fresh and canned tomato recipes that we want to try.

Ugh, watering gardens. We so need to hook up the hose. The weather is supposed to be sweltering all week. I may look at indoor tasks; we have a bunch of art that needs hung up.

Date: 2025-06-22 04:59 am (UTC)In more fun updates:
- I gave into my occasional divination interest and bought a bunch of tarot and oracle decks for writing purposes. (I'm going to be posting single cards and spreads to the RainbowFic tumblr - https://www.tumblr.com/blog/rainbowfic)
- I actually read a novel today (I haven't been able to read long form fiction for several years. I'm trying to build that muscle back up)
- I did more sketches for my storytelling card deck. Some of the words are REALLY hard to come up with images for. I did like five sketches before I settled on what to do for Custom/Superstition. I've messed with the list, splitting and combining different things, and adding a few things, so I need to update it and print it out again.

Date: 2025-06-22 08:08 am (UTC)I've also returned to my Adazakura project and am working on a pair of fics for it for a diptych, hopefully. One part of it will be haiku!
And finally, my editor has contacted me about The Lover of Lilith to say she's halfway through my short story and will be done with it within the next couple of days which makes me extremely excited. And nervous. Ugh.
