Throwback to one of the most unique and fun articles I've ever written. I loved getting to talk to Amanda Achen about her beautiful dress and the process behind making it. I miss being a journalist =(

A Dress that Flows as Beautifully as Her Voice - How FFXIV's Amanda Achen Designed the Iconic Hydaelyn Dress
Until now, fans had no idea just how much thought went into this beautiful re-imagining of Hydaelyn.

Kinda surprising to me that no one's really talking about the massive gap between 7.4 and Savage patch. I get *why*, but I'm a little bummed lol. Do y'all think the crafters will make less money because of it?

I don't know how I'm ever supposed to go back to listening to #sleeptoken on Spotify after last night. Ugh. Take me back (to Eden)!

I have so many nuanced critiques of 7.3 and DT as a whole as far as story, visuals, and gameplay. I need someone to bring me onto a podcast or something so I can rant and rave about all the various aspects of it lol #ffxiv
TLDR: Writing - god awful. Gameplay/visuals - *chef kiss*

Anyone punching down on a journalist for taking a shit wage has no idea what the job market for any kind of writing job (and I mean ANY writing job) looks like right now. Or honestly, the job market as a whole.
Blame the companies, sure. Do not blame the writers who are struggling. Gross.

Hey #writers, describe what you think you look like during your writing process. I'll start. Here's what I look like when I'm world building for the fantasy novel I'm writing.

No one tells you about the loss of identity after you're laid off from your dream job. Video games journalism is harder than ever to break into. It's why I pivoted to book editing.
When people ask me what I do for work, I don't know what to tell them. I just say I'm a teacher.
I'm so much more.

Applied for 26 jobs this week.
They pretty much boil down to "Will write anything for food."
Some places I applied to be a copywriter/proofreader at: A doctorate board, a law journal, a financial advisor school...
And a place called "Hot Clucks"
Really pulling for that last one... 😂

So... I did a thing. I just finished my publishing class where we learned how to developmentally edit a novel, and now I want to do it for real! I'm taking 2 additional debut/indie authors to edit over the summer for free.
