I did the math for my current writing project against the outline I have and I'm roughly 17% through the outline. For clarification my outline has bullet points as main points I want to hit in order and I calculate the current point I'm on versus the total amount of points.

These are my results of #NaNoWriMo
I did not reach the word goal of 50K but reached 40k. This is tough but I am happy for only missing 1 day. I am going to continue working on my current project but at a much more reasonable pace.

I did not expect this new writing project to have a how to make butter section or how to assist a ewe during lambing section. In my defense the main character lives on an off grid farm and would need to know these things.

Halfway done with #nanowrimo and I'm at 22.8k words. A bit behind but I'm still happy with that.

I did it, I wrote the smut.
Was I terribly embarrassed the entire time? Yes.
Is it toned down and more emotional than graphic? Yes.
Does this make my project a romance? I don't know.

There is a concept I want to try for this new writing project. Rather than every chapter be a different perspective, I make every 5th chapter a different perspective. Everything is written in first person present but I would make the tone notably different. Not a new concept but new for me.

Sharing this again since tomorrow is the start of #NaNoWriMo and want to make sure that anyone who wants a tracker has access to one.
Another thing, if you want to write fanfiction or journal more, go for it. You don't have to work towards a novel if you don't want to. Just have fun writing.

November is National Novel Writing Month also known as NanNoWriMo. I made these templates for anyone who wants to participate. Feel free to download and use as you please. They are 5x8 inches so you should be able to put both on a single page and try them out.

To whom it may concern,
I've had a lot going on lately and am unable to do somethings at the moment. I've over worked my drawing hand and can't really draw so I've been playing video games as a distraction but can't do that either since it's still over works my thumb.

I have scars on my lungs from getting covid. When I get sick with a cold, I'm ill for weeks. It may be mild for you but for your friends and family they might be very very sick. If you have the ability to help others, maybe you should instead of being a dick about it.
Routine vaccination for COVID-19 reduces hospitalization and deaths much more than vaccinating only high-risk groups.

Here are the other astronauts for Space Settlers. I had debated on having a green one since orange and pink are a bit similar but the spaces are green and I didn't want to confuse anyone.

On a completely unrelated note, despite not having an online shop at the moment I'm still starting Calendar designing now. I'm always late with them but now that I don't have a shop, I'll be early. FML

Here are some examples of the cards that go with Space Settlers. I made the designs very simple since this is aimed at young children who may not be able to read well.

Here are a couple of the astronaut designs for Space Settlers. I almost gave them a little booty but their back pack was in the way. Each color has a theme as well, in this case Blue is bubbles and Orange is stars.

Waiting to hear back from agents has me completing other projects. Things like the aforementioned Space Settlers and Cribbage Cube but also sketches for my children's book. I have 12 written out but I swear to god I was not intending to work on another book while waiting for feedback on the first.

With zero context this is line art of one of the promotional Fate's Thread Prints. I'm not gonna share the final piece until Fate's Thread becomes more than just a story I wrote down.

I've done some designs that would be promotional items for Fate's Thread. I've got two designs that work for prints and bookmarks. I'm thinking of doing sticker sheets of random callouts from the book. Maybe washi tape? Mugs? Notebooks?

Space settlers wasn't the only game I've designed. I also reimagined Cribbage into the Cribbage Cube. I have a delicate but functional prototype.

As terrified as I am, I'm going to take the first steps of book publishing and try to find an agent who will take me on as a client.

In college I had to create a board game for a design class, years later I came back to the idea and want to make tabletop games because I like to punish myself.
Anywho, here is the concept, idea refinement and execution. Space Settlers still has a ways to go but I'm very pleased with it

Not to gripe, my god never to gripe, but not fully understanding Fibromyalgia and all the fun secondary effects makes some days way harder than necessary. I did P.T. yesterday and now have some serious fatigue and general aches. PEM is kicking my ass.
