List of Writing Projects

Ripped Sticker Hearts (Stardew Valley)

Avictus Glen was a loyal Joja employee--until a job went horribly wrong and shattered his plans for the future. Trapped in corporate exile, he'd nearly given up when a letter arrived that would change his fate forever. Now struggling to build a new life in a small rural town, he's caught unprepared when a chance encounter threatens to reawaken feelings he'd sworn to keep buried. A tangle of hearts becomes a desperate beat as two men wrestle with both with their feelings for one another and their own inner demons. It all comes to a head when the ghosts of Glen’s past return to haunt him. Is it too late when he realizes?

Will love save them, or destroy them?

Strange Sort Of Circumstances (Fallout 4)

I was…. displeased with being forced to being the maternal lawyer (who always sounds watery and kinda meh) and wanted to write something with more of an old Noir novel edge. The story follows my amputee war veteran Rosie Stone. (who was kinda inspired by the Jack Reacher Book series.) Possibly a Valentine/Hancock/Deacon/SS romance. I’m really unsure at this point- I just know I love her to itty bitty bits.

The Maple-Bone Wand (Harry Potter)

I'm sure everyone has their 'if I received my Hogwarts letter' dreams and fics. This one happens to be mine.

The older I get the more I admire people who are earnestly, genuinely into whatever their thing is. I know it sounds like an annoying cliche but unless you're being cruel or hurtful there is really no need to be normal about things. The dude with the bad fake accent at the renaissance faire is having the time of his life. The people having photoshoots with their fashion dolls are loving it. The old lady with a yard unreasonably full of tacky ass lawn ornaments is having a blast, HOA be damned.

Don't waste your time being too cool to have fun, y'know?

Fairmeadow update!

Fairmeadow is a post-epic fantasy drama inspired by the counter-cultural movements of the late 60’s, the landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, and tabletop RPG’s. It’s about the collision of idealism against pragmatism, reckoning with the consequences of dropping out, and trying to make its readers want to go on a hike.

For me it’s the same idea as the “know the rules before you start breaking them” thing for art and writing-it lets you break them deliberately

Anonymous asked:

it's so upsetting when ppl complain about not having fics to read but refuse to read wips like ?? this isn't a book store this is a community... the authors are less likely to finish it if y'all only show their work love after it's done...

imdamagecontrol answered:

this isn't a bookstore this is a community

SAY IT LOUDER ANON

i know WIPs can be frustrating because they don't always update constantly or consistently. sometimes they get abandoned. sometimes they go on hiatus for long periods of time.

trust me, i get it. but the fanfic community and fanfic writers thrive on people supporting their works in progress. "there aren't any fics to read" - no there ARE, you're just not reading them.

ao3 isn't netflix. you very rarely get a finished product all in one go that's not a one shot. that defeats the purpose of being able to upload individual chapters at different times.

we as a society are too used to instant gratification and "binging." fanfic wasn't designed for that. if you want to "binge read," go buy a published book. if you want to participate in fandom, support writers who are putting their work out there for free without any compensation other than your love, support, and encouragement.

I would like to add that I kept going on a fic recently through a bad bout of depression and finished it, solely because people's comments were just so encouraging. I love you for that, fandom folk, and won't ever forget it.

Don Wilson:

"I have noticed a significant increase in general laxity about PPE since COVID masking has been dropped. A significant % of OR staff (esp anesthesia & RTs) not bothering to mask inside actual OR even when sterile fields are open & set up.

Nurses inside OR generally much more consistent (they directly handle & set up sterile equipment).

I’ve seen unmasked anesthesiologists & RTs for emergency CS & gyne cases… I don’t get it. We mask to prevent contamination of open surgical wounds. Just because COVID mask mandates are over doesn’t mean INSIDE an operating room is a mask free zone.

Used to be that it was unthinkable to be unmasked inside an active OR. Even in the hallways during active OR time. It’s a sad commentary on the impact of the antimask stupidity spilling over to areas where it can impact quality & safety of the patient care environment.

I’m just one person who chooses to be fastidious about masking inside the hospital, I can’t take on the entire system. But it’s discouraging to see & I wonder how many patients go on to have nosocomial surgical infections because of relaxed cultures around masking now."

Yesterday I saw an article about Hantavirus prevention that didn't mention respiratory protection when cleaning up mouse poop. Just gloves, bleach, and wetting rather than sweeping. Which is better than nothing, but for a disease as dangerous as HPS, I'm going to put in the tiny extra effort of an N-95 also.

Construction workers are masking less around sawdust and worse.

The anti-mask brainrot runs deep.

Yearly reminder to everyone trying to find alternatives to tumblr/social media in general: go make a Neocities account and teach yourself basic HTML and post your art/writing/shitposts there.

It does take extra time to set up (but there are templates out there!) but it is so so worth it to have a site that is 100% YOURS!

You don’t even have to be that good at coding. I’m not. My site is not very accessible via mobile devices but that is fine with me (keeps me off my phone) but there are plenty of ways to make your site mobile friendly. There are plenty of bare bones/accessible sites I adore purely for the media on it.

Imagine having your site on your phone and showing someone- hey! I coded this from scratch. And I didn’t even have to pay a company like squarespace. All your images, links, writings, in one place. I have my fandom edits, memes, fanart, and custom graphics there.

Neocities has a very bare bones follower and comment system, but you can disable this if you want your site to truly abstain from any social media-isms. I use it because its a great way to meet other webmasters and get help with coding problems. Neocities isn't an exact replacement for Tumblr (no reblogging here) but html coding is an invaluable skill to know, as is keeping a personal website in this day in age.

The awesome thing about having your own website is if, god forbid, Neocities goes down, you can move your site to any other number of hosting platforms (like Teacake.org). Your site is truly YOURS, and no one else (shitty tech CEO cough cough) can take it away from you.

If you need help getting started, I recommend checking out sadgrl.online. (More links to resources in the comments section of this post).

I know neocities has been talked about before, especially within my follower circle, but I thought I'd bring it up again for anyone unaware of this awesome platform.
