Yuletide assignment is done! Now I just need my brain to start working again so I can write treats. I doubt I'll hit my personal goal for treat writing this year because so far there's just been a lot of random bits and bobs of unusable babble but who knows, maybe it'll happen. *crosses fingers*
I finished another rug, the pic isn't great but it's medium blue and a larger one, 26.5" by 38"(ish). I don't know why I have so very many crappy sheets, let alone so many blue ones but I do. And despite all the rugs I've made I *still* have a ton of sheets and tshirts and other things I could use to make more. (I absolutely do NOT need more rugs, nor do any of the people I've been pawning the ones I've finished off to. But whatever. Rug!)
Whoops, have two weeks of
recthething recs (all MDZS/Untamed fic recs, various lengths and subjects)
Facts and Feelings, or: Inquiry Season 1 by el_em_en_oh_pee (7.5k)
Summary: Inquiry was taking the country by storm. People were fascinated by the true crime podcast: its approach to the Yiling Incident; the way it incorporated folklore and myth into its structure; the questions it raised. Wei Ying was more alarmed than fascinated, and he had some questions of his own: Who was Hanguang-jun? Why was Hanguang-jun covering an incident that had been laid to rest for over six years? And would Hanguang-jun identify him as central to the entire thing? (absolutely fascinating and unusual style and a good overall modern cultivation AU)

Wei Wuxian, freelance artist and single father, works best with a flexible schedule and freedom to express himself. But he is not a writer. (absolutely adorable Modern AU)
Instead of starting on yet another rug I don't need I've decided to attempt to make a dent in my yarn stash and crochet another afghan (which I also don't need but it's that or another shawl and I already have too many of those and my mom is keeping *her* stash in check by dumping it off on me so despite not buying anything and having made a lot of things my stash has doubled in size in the last two years.)
