So here it is, my depiction of episode 1 of the wonderful Our Flag Means Death, in the (sort of) style of the Bayeux Tapestry. Only tiny. I adore this show. (You can probably tell). #OFMD
Me this morning after jumping around at a gig like I was 19 again. Cocktails were had. Bit fragile today.
Worth it.

For this #TakeTwoTuesday, Regarding Stede.
I suffer badly with self confidence/esteem and it can have an impact on how I feel about my writing. This fic, though, I actually quite like this one, and it always takes a lot for me to say anything like that.

Second week of our house being on the market. Every surface is so clean you could eat your dinner off it. I can't find anything. I am at the boiling rage stage of the process. Husband and dog have gone into hiding. Or maybe storage, can't remember. Send good vibes please to cancel out mine

Five college courses? Oh no.
UK degrees often don't allow much choice outside your chosen subject (Biology). I boldly opted for an extra class in French language. I sat next to my totally unrequited crush, who had the most delicious French accent. I did not. I died a little for an hour each week.

5 college classes. Ugh I took so many I don’t even remember most of them 😭 Changed my major twice 😆
- Calculus 2
- Earth Science
- lots of foreign languages (counting it as one haha)
- Anthropology
- Ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian literature & religion — this class led me to Egyptology

Five college classes? My god y’all that’s a long time ago 😂
- Music as a Literature (very useful for appreciating the music in my hyperfixations!)
- The nature writing class that sent me down the whole cursed PhD path
- a French translation class
- Drawing (full year)
- Intro to Chinese Philosophy

After only three years in the fandom (albeit some of those lurking), I finally done a fic! It's got sweets, insecurity, neurodivergence, and my ongoing hatred of letting agents despite not having had to deal with them in years.
