Pestilence, War, Famine, Death. 

The world is going to end and only four people can put a stop to it.

You are one of those people.

However, there's a catch.

The only way to save the world, and all its people, if for all four of you to give up your lives.

Are you willing to die for the world, not knowing if the others will join you, or will you try to find a way to lift this curse and maybe find love along the way?

Interactive Fiction WIP: Wings of Dawn
In a world where wings are everything, you are the only one born without them. You grow up in a modest village under the wing of your father until one day you are forced to flee from a mysterious attack on your village.
 Travel through the three unique nations of Askgard to find out the secret of your own birth. Along your journey, you may meet, befriend, and even romance shady merchants, runaway nobles, knights with a hidden past—and fight your way through the looming shadows threatening to engulf Askgard beside them.
Be careful, for there are threads of conspiracy spun just outside of your sight; things may not be as they seem. In the end, you may be the only one who has the power to save Askgard from ruin.
Warning: Contains swearing, abuse, animal cruelty, graphic violence/death, blood, discrimination, sexual assault

Along with 50+ authors and artists, I'm contributing to the Interactive Fiction Community Raffle for Palestine coordinated by @northern-passage! The raffle is running until 21st June and you can enter by donating 5USD/5€ to one of five verified fundraising campaigns.

If you win my prize, I will write you:

An interactive playable date scene with an RO or polyamorous duo of your choice from one of my released games or WIP. Non-explicit - please specify if you’d like a kiss and/or fade-to-black included in the scene.

Characters you can request are from Crème de la Crème, Noblesse Oblige, Royal Affairs, Honor Bound, and Blood Money from Choice of Games (find out more about them here), or from my other interactive fiction here.

Please share - we'd like to raise as much as we can for these fundraisers before 21st June!

Help save my teeth and be able to eat pain-free

I need your help, people. You might remember that I am in need of several crowns on my teeth and in one case the pain has become so bad that I can't sleep and it's starting to affect my hearing and sight (isn't the human nervous system amazing?)

Long story short: I talked to my dentist and insurance again, and I need to pay 850 euro out of my own pocket (insurance is covering most of it, though) We do have about 150 already.

Sorry ;_;

150/850

Also: Please don't send 'helpful' advice. I have looked into literally all other options.

186/850

Dentist tried to do something for the time being, but it didn't work, the break/fissure is in such a position that it's either a crown or complete tooth out (which would be much more expensive Dx )

Do ever feel like you should be writing right now but the second you do you all inspiration is lost so you sit staring blankly at the wall in hopes it will tell you what to write.

this is a formal interest check for a charity raffle with the IF community

if you are an IF author or artist and you're interested in participating in a charity-drive raffle, please check out this form! we are aiming to do one big raffle with a single prize pool, where people submit proof of donation in exchange for a raffle ticket.

prizes we are currently considering would be things like a spicy snippet or a cosy snippet, etc. potential sketches from artists or a rendered bust, etc. and we'll allow the authors & artists to dictate how much/what exactly they're comfortable offering. donating to multiple gfm will mean more entries into the raffle. we'll be offering a list of potential gfm to donate to (we're going to try and focus on ones with low funds) & any artists/authors offering prizes can specify if they want to sponsor specific gfm.

this is subject to change! we are just trying to gauge interest right now and see what we can put together on our side of things which depends entirely on the people willing to contribute & if we get enough interest.

here is the google form for artists and authors to fill out:

this was inspired by the book auction for gaza as well as the many other art raffles i've seen here and on twitter.

Sometimes a creative outlet is a fun little hobby and sometimes it's a lifelong affliction. Like I crochet because making little woven animals sparks joy and I'm a writer whether I like it or not because I'm tormented by visions

Me crocheting: I made a duck ! ^_^

Me writing: pacing around talking to myself compelled by forces beyond my comprehension

“omg you’re so creative. how do you get your ideas” i hallucinate a single scene in the taco bell drive thru and then spend 13 months trying to write it

So, I am working on the update- I'm just terrible at estimating time for these things and am also having complicated feelings on what I've written. But it's coming and I'm going to keep chugging along, putting a pin in these parts to come back and edit later so I don't end up in a perfectionist loop of editing and rewriting the beginning. There's gonna be a lot of pins.

That said, one way I keep my sanity is the secret little side writing project I dabble in with brainstorming and plans. Which brings me to a question:

You're a formula racing driver.

You're a professional.

But besides your recent success, you are far from the finish line.

Now you're busy searching and finding sponsors and signing deals left and right. You're trying to make the right decisions. After all, you do have to maintain a certain image. On top of all of that, your ex is back and climbing the ranks after falling off the grid for five years.

Can you deal with it all?

Or will you crash and burn?
