You can still contact me here if it's the only way for you to do so, but I do prefer that people reach out to me on DW instead.

I've hardly been able to write anything but poetry for weeks now. Upside: I've been writing something, and hey, might as well work with that medium a little, why not. And in that format, it's easier to pull out something for canons that, for various reasons, I have difficulty writing prose fic for. Lookin' at you, Small Trolls and Year in Hereafter ( Read more... )

Ugh. Camp NaNo starts at the end of next week, and I am SO out of the habit of writing every day. This is going to be interesting. And by interesting I mean mildly failtastic. But oh well ( Read more... )

AKA vague list of stuff I want to work on some time in the next few months. (Yes, one of those days where I'm just kind of rolling around ideas, might as well jot them down ( Read more... )
