Oh. Oh I’ve forgotten how much I’ve enjoyed writing these characters. 😭 there’s a reason why they were the ones to bring me back to fanfiction.
Strongly fighting the urge not to just freaking rewrite and rework them entirely.

Anybody in this platform still like some old #qrowxsummer?

Help, my escapism is reemerging with a sudden desire to finish all of my old fanfics. This would be okay if it was the most current fandom, but noooo…. I have to finish #rwbyhummingbird one’s. But they’re so old that I have to go edit them before I can write more😭😭😭

hey, can we all make a pact that if someone is mean to you on bsky we just block them. don’t interact with them, no need to go back and forth with them. just block. the block button works here.

I’ve just started being a DM for a small kid friendly DnD. My husband, a big fan of homestar runner, has named his character Rather Dashing, who’s backstory very much involves #trogdortheburninator.

They still don’t know realize I’m recreating Galaxy Quest in DnD format.

Just an update: kiddos are on the mend. Oldest is back to school tomorrow. Littlest is eh. She’s on meds and doing better, but still has a wet cough.

Now it’s time for me to feel like death.

For the record, I have no voice.
At this point I’m using this space for being able to express my fears:

Round two with the ER with the littlest. RSV *and* Strep. 🫥

I don’t even know where to start.
And we just got back from the hospital due to littlest with a massive fever.

Aaaaaand now the littlest has it and I’ve got a sore throat starting up

I didn’t realize how much of a difference sensory disorders make on development until I just sat down to celebrate my son allowing me alone to cut his hair, including using a buzzer.

He’s 5.

Due to his SPD, it usually is 1.5 hours from start to finish, with my hubby to try and distract.

Post your pet and what they’re named after.

It’s the root name of The phantasm. My girl is named Phantom.

Aaaaand my oldest is sick again.

This gal can’t catch a break.

I almost wrote something on this the other site, and caught myself. So instead on a site that won’t steal my words:

The spot of light among a sea of black.

Harry’s eyes locked on it, wand flicking side to side. Death Eaters moved or were moved as he pushed through the crowd.

I bring my #dhrwipwednesday snippet to you all… a completely unedited piece of the upcoming spooky story I’m working on.
September 20, 2023 at 8:34 PM
Anybody have any good suggestions for writing spooky/suspenseful stories? Things that they like stylistically for keeping that fear/suspense going both in reading and writing.

I can envision it, but trying to implement it in words… 😬

I have no space for something that just happened. But I’m having a hard time focusing on anything outside of it.

Does anyone else have tricks on how to be focused until you can make the space to feel it? (I’m in the medical field, if that gives any ideas)
