Changing my preferred name has been a thought on my mind for *a while* and I'm finally making the push for real.

Preferred name is Erin. I won't be offended if someone still calls me Koko tho, I've been going by it for so long as is.
I'm in a position where I'm contemplating a part time job on top of my full time, but God that would be AWFUL. I wish I could do writing side gig but now is such a dismal time to be putting effort there but idk what else to do orz

You are WEAK. Weeaboos have been jamming out to songs they don’t understand in Japanese for decades.

Fic I'm working on has the ship kisses for real at only the half way point. I hope that fills readers with fear, considering all the angst tags this will have.

Rubbing my hands together as I bake miscommunication into this fic.

I love miscommunication when it's not done cheaply.

I like how my high school dance experiences were largely bland because I didn't really want to be there, yet the school dance chapter of this pitch pearl fic has been one of the most fun to write

I keep resisting the urge to write one specific thing into a lot of fics lately bc I'm sure people would hate reading it, and I know I should just write it anyway bc I want to, but my brain is hard stuck in the mud on this one

good LORD, man. writing is not a race. you don't get a medal. and you don't lose by taking a while. pumping out "content" to be devoured like a soulless supply chain? give me a break, man. What a total rotting mindset of producing quantity for quantity's sake. Empty creative calories.
fuck this lady, fuck the nyt reporter, fuck all of this. fuck amazon for introducing the KU page read model that makes this possible, fuck our tech overlords.

Fanfiction doesn’t exist to be “good” it exists because something went horribly wrong with you while you were watching a tv show and you’re gripped by madness

Writing is hard but you know what sucks more? Editing. Did you know you can rewrite the same paragraph 10+ times and still hate it?

“Is my fanfiction good” “will a lot of people read/like my fanfiction” GIRL FORGET ABOUT ALL THAT FOR A SECOND your top aspiration when writing fanfiction should be making it so weird, someone will read it at 16 and never forget it as long as they live

Furries have already achieved the dream of every shit silicon valley technology and in a more ethical and less cringe way

The metaverse: VRChat
NFTs: adoptable fursonas
Typing words into a text box and having art appear: commissions

I have determined that everything right now is All Too Much and it needs to be Considerably Less, so if reality could just dial it down a fucking iota or two, I think we'd all like that

Nothing prepared me for how much bs came with adult life. Mom always played the "You'll understand when you're older" and now I'm just irrationally angry that I have to deal with adults twice my age that act like toddlers.

A ship doesn't have to be canon to be good or worth exploring. It's really strange this recent trend of canon or bust. If a dynamic grips you, you find it interesting, or it makes you pause, and you can tweak it to make it work for you and your art, go nuts. That's the joy of transformative fandom!

I want to quit my job so bad. This place is such a mess from top to bottom, but the schedule is nice (sans it being 1st shift) and I do enjoy being left to my own devices.

But damn I wish I could just quit on the fly and do freelance work
