Random Update?
Lol, just posting in this journal to say that I'm still here.
I'm not even sure why I still have this, actually. I probably won't be using this journal to post any writing or art anymore, really. When that stuff happens, it'll all be over at another journal.
I think mostly, I just use this as a personal journal for when I app into RP games, I think. That's it. And for nostalgia's sake. Reading some of these old entries from before his simultaneously painful and hilarious. Man, I was such a melodramatic, emo fourteen-year-old.
Anyway, I guess just an update on stuff that's happening with my online then!
I'm in two RP games, damned with Claire Stanfield, and scorched with Sakuya Kira. Things are going much, much better at damned than before. Much better. I might even say I'm proud of myself for getting much better.
scorched..... is a different story. Ahahaha... I think I've forgotten how to play at a commentspam, journal game. It's hard, lol. Getting into a prose game format really changes the way you play. I have trouble staying caught up at scorched and trouble figuring out what to handwave and how to develop CR and how to plot, pfft. Basically, I fail. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing here yet. I'll stick around and see how things go, I guess.
In other news, this is the first year I'm attempting NaNoWriMo! It's... interesting, so far. I've never considered myself a writer. And really, I'm not. Perhaps a roleplayer, but being a writer is not inclusive. I think of roleplay and writing as two separate things that overlap with certain qualities, but are ultimately different things. I'm a roleplayer, but not a writer. So, I'm wondering how good of an idea this was, lol. I was persuaded to join by some of my RP buddies from damned, so... man. No idea how that'll turn out!
In any case, I was way short of Day 1's word count goal, but that's okay. I pulled 407 words completely out of my ass in the 1.5 hours I had before the end of Day 1, so I'd say that's pretty fair for a beginner. I probably should have prepared better for this, fff. I have no characters, no plot, nothing. Hahaha, at this point, I apparently can't decide if I want to write fanficton (b/c I am a wuss and I also haven't worked with OCs in way too long and I have zero confidence in my ability to come up with completely original characters right now) or original fiction. So I... have about 3 stories going at the same time, right now.
....... And I don't really intend on mashing them all together at some point. Because the clash of Baccano!, Haruhi Suzumiya, and original fantasy fiction would not be pretty.
Anyway, to whoever still reads this stuff in my journal, those are just the most basic bits of things that are going on with me at the moment. Too many things have happened for me to put into a journal post.
