Hello everyone, and happy new year!
I’ve been trying to get my writing started again in any way possible, generally just by writing literally anything that comes to my mind, whatever it is. Often the beginnings of weird fanfic premises, or mood/character snippets of various original stories and settings that I’ve been mulling over. It does feel nice to get some of it out of my mind, though I never get far with any of it, currently. I’m somewhat less quality-conscious when I write these things since I’ll certainly never publish any of it, which helps. It also takes less effort because there’s less variables and characters to keep track of in my mind, unlike with IFF where I’m at least going for something a little more complex. It’s a pleasure to just be writing anything again, though most of the things I’ve written make me grimace afterwards.
Mostly, though, I’ve been too busy to really get anything done at all, let alone writing. This month I’ll be finishing off my (current) education and beginning to focus on the game I’m developing with a few others, and the company that we founded to go with that. The break I’ve mentioned will hopefully come a bit after we publish that game, so that’s the progress on that front.
Other than that, there’s no progress to report, I fear. The hiatus continues for now.
See you next month!
