  1. I found myself thinking that bit, ('I'm broken') just moments ago, and then read this. *hugs*
  2. They say "write what you know", and that's certainly good advice.. FOR COWARDS. -Tailsteak
  3. Come to think of it, that suits me too. The way my writing process is at the moment, I pick an idea, be it one of your writing prompts or a sequel to something great I read, and spend a considerable time writing it. Like, months.. (Actually, funny story, in that I rolled the next prompt while working on the 32. fighting one, and it just happened to be a theme I had thought out a piece for already Completely at random! This stuff is almost writing itself! Well, no, the process itself is as grueling as it ever was, but the broad strokes of the story are. ~~spooky..~~ So, as that goes, I'll be taking part only in the Writing prompts part at the moment. I don't know how much I could set as a goal for myself, at the moment. Edit: Edited my RE table status, wondering if I did it right?
  4. Well, this is a development I wholeheartedly support! (though my personal opinion is 'books are totally freaking awesome' ..so I may be slightly biased here )
  5. Ate an apple and a banana before bed ^-^ My mom suggested I would just wake up at 7 every day, no matter how much I actually slept. And eventually I'd be so tired it'd fix the sleep cycle. ...I like your suggestion better, it sounds more humane Yeah, I assumed as much I sure do hope so..
  6. I started reading Half the World by Joe Abercrombie, but then realized that's the second book in the series, so I had to hop back and read the first one (Half a King) in one evening to catch up, and just now, upon googling the author I found out he's actually finished the trilogy! Yess! The books are about fictional vikings, but his style of writing makes it seem halfway between Beowulf, and halfway something that is actually happening. It's as if he published a second, or a third draft, but the roughness, and the way he adds these details I wouldn't have thought out out to add makes it a very refreshing and captivating read. Do recommend This far I've been sick, mostly just sneezing and drinking lots of tea, but I've remembered to eat a handful of sunflower seeds, and I think I'll be recovered enough to get in some sort of workout in the weekend. I've been also sleeping in. I keep falling asleep around or after 12, and waking up 9 or 10. I don't yet know how I'm going to start nudging it to earlier time.
  7. Yeahh.. *scratches back of head* About that.. Can I slink back in on your heels? Ooh, that Scribophile looks interesting!
  8. Okay. The short version is that right now, I’m between studies, without a job, living with my parents, and I have no hell of an idea what I am going to do with my life. I have to either return to finish a line of studies I’ve grown to hate, find something new altogether, or try to find a job. With high school background.. Yeah, not so much. I’ve now done shit all for a few months, and I can say that sucks. I have a tendency to write massive challenges I never finish (or get even halfway..). So, here, a bit smaller this time: 1) At the end of the challenge, I have cut my time in front of the screen to six hours. (Currently probably closer to 11.) Honestly? If I have to ask myself if I am addicted to digital distraction fodder, I probably am. At least reading a real book is fucking useful. 2) Two vegetables, fruits, or handfuls of seeds or nuts every day 3) A basic bodyweight workout twice a week. I’ve done this before, and I know how much better it makes me feel. And if it is boring, I will change the exercises I am doing. Not stop doing the whole thing. 4) Write. At least half an hour per day. And not that half-in-youtube/reddit/whereever bullshit either. I’ve got a dozen story ideas in my head, I’m constantly thinking about them, and wanting to write them. Yet I do not. I guess it’s that they’re safer inside my head, thought out far better than what I can put on paper. And that, imperfect beginners' skill kind of ruining them scares me. But what good do they do in my head? The truth is I’m just being a coward. And I must write. I don't want my stories to die with me. (Large images spoilered for convenience) Today I tried pole-dancing for the first time. It certainly was something I had never experienced before And that made it fun. I ate a handful of almonds and a banana. Wrote this, though it doesn't really count. Planning to go to bed at 11.
  9. Or vacuum clean under it Come to think of it, it could have a set of pulleys on the corners, so you could just lift the whole thing up..
  10. A nice, useful challenge. And not too big. Always good to have someones to brag to Hmm.. You think the goals are recycleable in the next 4WC? (If you're going to join?) Also, it's 10 pm and I'm hungry after reading that. I'll blame you
  11. Should I write and publish the pieces in the order I get them written, or should I wait until I get several pieces that belong together done first? I'm kind of leaning into publish as you go, but I think that would make for a difficult story to read. For example, this piece I'm working on now, kind of require having read the one before it first. That one, however, currently only exists in my head And obviously I know how it all makes sense They being my characters and all, having pondered a lot of the storyline out already. Thoughts?
  12. Somehow the cheerfulness of this makes me happy ^-^ Go figure.. Also, thank you for reminding me of this beauty xD
  13. Now, if that shit's airborne, it might get ugly fast..
  14. I have to admit, wouldn't have guessed that
  15. ... Does she always look like that? I think pupils are not supposed to do that, (well, without a fuckton of adrenaline or some gleeful magical substances, anyway.)
  16. "The Legend of Old Man Henderson is a crazy-ass tale about a player who accidentally figured out how to "win" at Call of Cthulhu (only it was reallyTrail of Cthulhu). Proof that great times can be had, even if bad GMs want to run stupidly brutal grimdark horror campaigns. Here's an audio of it in case you can't read:" ... I mean, that stuff was glorious.
  17. I got a couple (more or less finished) pieces I'd like eyes on ^-^ They're responses to writing prompts, and I'm pretty jittery right now, abitnervousbutIdon'tthinkitshows. *hastily nudges pieces of paper into your direction* 92. Colors: Auburn, Denim, Robin egg blue https://docs.google.com/document/d/1spXL53e9yaUl7aB6mmXoRgSqWJs2wxsbtErlBhAzP5k/edit?usp=sharing 32. Verb/action: fighting (part 1) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eBaqagO67535j3JAjqOktvToXHdiNtXX4W4DXpFMT3k/edit?usp=sharing (A heads up in that Minnie is trying to jump off the Golden gate bridge so suicide features heavily. Oh, and the dotted lines mean POV-changes, or at the start, a long discussion cut short).
  18. 32. Verb/action: Fighting (part 1) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eBaqagO67535j3JAjqOktvToXHdiNtXX4W4DXpFMT3k/edit?usp=sharing (And the dotted lines mean point-of-view changes, or at the start, a long discussion cut short.) Firstly, Minnie is trying to jump off the Golden gate bridge, so suicide is a heavy theme here. Secondly, I don't know much about being a transgender person, (basically just researching this as I go along, and picking the things I think Minnie happens to experience) so feedback on that is especially appreciated. Of course ^-^ any other feedback is always appreciated as well.
  19. Well, depending how much you had it written already, visiting an IT shop could be useful? (It might get expensive, though.)
  20. "American Non-Sequitur Society—We don't make sense, but we do like pizza."
  21. Okay I have to ask - where exactly do you work?
  22. That would have indeed been a considerably more neater solution than what went down.
  23. There was a male, perhaps drunk, loudly yelling "you always beat me" and then a thump and something crashing. I called the 112, and the cops came, and went, because no one knew which apartment the noise came from. Now I'm getting shit for calling the cops and meddling with other peoples business.* My dads stance could be summed as "let them sort it out on their own and don't stick your nose where it doesn't belong" - well I'm sorry I can't just let shit like that be. And fuck just looking the other way. *It might've been a mistake to call without mentioning it to him first, as he's the owner of this apartment, but that I called the cops definitely wasn't.
  24. I haven't got much to say about to what happened to Kim, but I can give you a big, warm hug, if you want to? *hugs* That sucks. It's just not a fair world sometimes :/ Lucky to have met her, though?
