 .... happy new year? merry christmas?

Something, something, i have a dreamwidth actually.

ANYWAY, starting 2022 strong by trying lots of new things!


GYWO

I joined GYWO with a light wc pledge of 75k, in hindsight I'm thinking I could have chosen a habit pledge instead but I'm noting the days I'm writing as well and I mostly just want something to hold me accountable so I don't find excuses staring holes into the air.

Chocolatebox Exchange

/Somebody/ dragged me into the chocobox exchange and ngl, on the one hand I am terrified but I am mostly thrilled rn because the two people I am writing for have phenomenal requests and aaahhhh, I wanna do them justice!

Love KIlls Sukufushi Exchange

I have only one posted JJK fic so far although I have four more in the works/ready to post/in zine jail, but well, to the other participants I might be a bit of a newcomer, so I hope I'll be able to give my giftee what they are hoping for, but really, the prompts are god-tier, I have so much fun with them!

Big Bang Mod

My first time modding a Big Bang, I am excited as it's for Lady Nagant from BNHA and she's awesome. Can't wait for all the quality content resulting from the event!

Secret Easter Bunny Exchange

My baby. I am so, so, so excited. I have really fallen into exchange hell, BUT this one, I am modding and ughhh, I just love it. I didn't think there would be like BIG interest for a Miruko exchange, simply bc I have the feeling exchanges are more popular with other fandoms so I am really happy that we already have more than 40 followers on Twitter even if not all of them will participate that's already more than I hoped for. And we haven't even opened sign-ups yet!
Check it out


I think the whole exchange business also helps with the fact that I felt kind of... empty of big ideas lately? I am still writing quite a bit, but I feel like most of it is for my own entertainment without the need to post it on AO3, so I'm just watching my pile grow and put off thinking about tags and summaries for as long as possible LMAO

Things learned today:
How to create a meeting in Lotus Notes, i hate this software so much, I can't put it into words

Things I did today: Put more finishing touches on the exchange sign-up form, aaahhhh, SOON. (Saturday!)

Things that need to be done soon-ish: finally hammer out some comments for lovely fics I read and have still open bc they were great and I want to give the writers my love, but I'm a mess djfslfsa


I'm still a bit clueless what to do with this site, so until I figure that out, you'll have to bear with my ramblings, I'm afraid...

P.S. word learned: exanimate; i mean, sure it's easy to decipher with ex for out, over/former and anima for life but... i only saw it now in the mood tags and I feel flabbergasted

Ahahaha loving that the "excited" mood has a bouncing bunny, matches well with the Miruko exchange you mention

Please ramble all you waaaant Dreamwidth can be used for really anything and the tags can help you arrange different topics together, too :D And there are locked entries for the stuff that is a bit more private, too. I feel like following more people or just checking out their journals can also give more ideas of all the ways one can use Dreamwidth. Even if participating in the [community profile] snowflake_challenge doesn't appeal (never too late to join or do any random challenge if you like, though! I think the first one is particularly nice, to figure out how to make a good introduction), it's nice to click through the comments and see what people are up to and how they choose to be active (or not) on Dreamwidth, possibly leaving random lil' comments, or not. From my side, reading your updates whether it's fandom or writing progress or life is all wonderful :D

I... am somehow involved in flailing around 3 of these 5 things hfiehie is that a bingo line yet 😂 I feel like ChocoBox was just me spending 3 hours sending you half the tag set in DMs hahahahaha fun times 🤣🤣 Thank you for always being up for all kinds of shenanigans, you are an amazing companion of darkness AND lightness 💙💙💙 And good luck with all of these exciting things, so much learning and having fun!!!

(Very, very sorry for the Lotus Notes learning though. Had to use it in a job many, many moons ago and I... don't miss it... is the kindest way I can put it!)

(Conversely, very, very happy I get to use one of my new RUMI ICONS on one of your posts as I was considering randomly saying something on an old entry of yours just because, and with the Secret Easter Bunny exchange I feel like I have a proper excuse now 🥳 🐇)
