It’s never an easy decision to make, but I’ve had to make it: all my active stories are now officially on hiatus. Nothing (very) bad’s happened – at least, this time around, nobody is dead, dying, or terminally ill. Life’s just thrown us a curveball and Cold and I are even busier than usual. Most days, I barely have the energy to handle day-to-day work, let alone time and energy to write. Heck, I haven’t even gotten anything written on my most recent chapter of my novel in a few months now; that’s how crazy it’s been lately. Since my fanfiction may not be updated anytime soon, I decided to head it off at the pass before readers start deciding I’m dead. ...yes. That’s always a possibility, considering how infrequently I can update. It sucks, but better to give myself permission to not write than continue to bludgeon the desktop with my head when my brain is too stress-fried to write. On FFN and AO3, I put notes in my current stories, and updated the summaries of the stories that have fallen by the wayside. AFF frowns on author’s notes as chapters, so I’m not sure where to go beyond adding something to the summaries. I hope the fanfiction writer’s curse has missed more of y’all than it’s hit, that spring is treating you well, and that this doesn’t last too many months. Now if any of y’all need me, I’ll be in my burrito-blanket muttering there’s no place like home and fuck-this-shit-I’m-out.

And today’s birthday shout-out goes to the amazing Melrick. Happy Birthday, and many more! 🥧🫖

Well, that was fun… Anyone else feel the earthquake that just rocked the Northeast area?

There are those moments that make me wonder… Why is google maps putting the dining symbol on a pet shop? Go for the amazing sensation of goldfish squirming on the way down?
