Hello everyone! I had an interesting experience last night: for the first time, I accidentally lost Camp NaNo. I had 1k left to write, which I can do in about half an hour, so I had it in the bag. I had my first meeting with a crit group I’ve just joined, which went really well and I’m really looking Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Accidental Faliure
Hi everyone! Hope y’all are having a lovely Monday. This week I’m doing something I don’t normally do. It’s Stockholm Pride week, and usually I don’t really participate in it except maybe by watching the Pride Parade but tomorrow I’m going into town to listen to a talk about the portrayal of (even more than averagely) marginalized HBTQ-identities in TV shows. Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Happy Pride Week!
Hey hey! I’m on Instagram. I’m not sure what I think of it yet, but I’m getting the hang of it. I was quite surprised to see there was already an EmmaLindhagen on there, hence the “author” part of my username. So yeah, maybe follow me on there or whatever. So, social media exploration aside, this week I have: Hit Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Instant Emma?
Hello lovelies, I hope you all have had a lovely Monday. Mine has been pretty rad, tbh. I’m making such good progress with my BA thesis studying right now, and that just feels great. I’ve also worked out, written a bit, done and then accidentally ruined my nails (twice) and taken a walk. So apart from the nail bit, a Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Kinda Progress
Hello my lovelies! It’s been a busy week and I’ve got a bunch of news for you, so let’s get right to it: I did some Camp prep and then started Camp on Friday. I haven’t had the greatest start. I think I can still catch up, but I might lower my word count goal if I need to. I’m Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – All Kindsa News!
Hello lovelies! Boy, has this blog been dead lately? I have had a bad case of “holy shit, what even is to-do lists and writing stuff” lately, with the day job being super busy for a while and my studies remaining super busy. For that reason, I haven’t been doing much worth reporting lately. I did some flash fiction about Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Miss me?
I don’t mention my collection of ball-jointed dolls often here on the blog, but tonight I just have to share a photo of my little polar bear doll (a Fairyland puki event faceplate, in case anyone wants to know). I’ve had here for over a year, but only just painted her and gosh, she turned out so cute. Here’s Metaphora Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Here, have a polar bear!
The last few days I have, much to my enjoyment, actually been checking things off of to-do lists. That’s always a lovely feeling. I’ve caught some sort of second wind with this university thing I’m working on and although it’s still slow-going, it’s at least going and with a bit more enthusiasm than before. Writing wise, it’s also been a Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Checkmarks!
Lately I seem to be making an extra effort when I write to express myself… prettily. I mean, I always want to write well, but I’m not always in that particular mood where I push myself a little extra, and go for a little extra flourish. I wouldn’t go so far as saying I’m in a purple prose mood, aesthetics clouding Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Psuedo-purple?
Monday-Tuesday this week, I was at a conference. So naturally I spent Monday evening thinking “I’ll do my blog tomorrow morning, I’m too tired now” and Tuesday morning I completely forgot. Anyhowsers, so my news from last week is: yay, I managed Camp! About 11k in the end, go me! I even managed to do my taxes (one day before Continue reading Twice Forthnightly – Non-worldbuilding Wednesday
