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?
As I believe I’ve previously mentioned, I am a big fan of the Dungeons & Dragons stream Critical Role. The arc I’m watching right now (the Whitestone storyline, for the initiated) is so ridiculously good I simultaneously struggle to turn it off in the evening, and have to take pauses and pace around the apartment intermittently because OMG THE TENSION! I Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – I Broke the World For Us (A mini Critical Role Tribute)
Tonight I dreamed of vampires, boarding schools and rebellion, so I wrote this little piece (a bit sloppy because it’s late and I’m sleepy). Hope you like it. Tonight was the night. They would try to rise, and if they failed at least they would finally fall. She stopped for a moment, peeking out through the crack in the door. Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Tonight is the Night
So, I’ve been meaning to do a news post for a while, and I’m finally getting around to it. And by news, I mean “things that would’ve been news if I’d posted about it at the time”. This post will be totally random both in terms of chronology and topic, and if we’re buddies and I’ve missed some awesome thing Continue reading Tribe News – All Kindsa Random! Also, New Zealand!
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!
As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve been getting into tabletop RPGs lately. Naturally, one of the games on my “to play” list is the true giant of the genre, Dungeons and Dragons. I’m watching a few D&D streams right now, my favorite being the truly amazing Critical Role. The other day, I came up with a character concept that I absolutely adore Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Child, The Other
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!
Last night I went to a party. On the metro back I wrote this: Some nights, she felt cool. Not just cool for a geek, or cool for being her, but cool in some unqualified, objective way. Some nights, she felt sexy and, only halfway through her first cider, stopped worrying about whether it had been a mistake to wear Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Some Nights
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?
