It’s result stream o clock soon again? Who knew that writing and the rest of Nanowrimo could turn into a crazy wild rpg with almost a hundred players, over a million words in the world on @worldanvil.com, people all around the globe playing (curse you, timezones!!!) and zombiesvsbunniesvskraken?
A promotional graphic for “GoT – Nov 2025 Week 4” with a parchment background and black ink-like brush strokes. At the top left is a rainbow-gradient circular logo with an open book labeled “GoT.” At the top right is the Kitsune-Gumi red-and-white fox sigil. Large white text asks three questions: “Which House will fall, Lapin or Mollusca?” (with the Lapin rabbit sigil on the left and the purple Mollusca sigil on the right), “How many Tome Knights will turn undead?”, and “How many words will the Horde gain?” Green question-mark graphics appear on both sides. The bottom text invites viewers to tune in to a Twitch stream at “twitch.tv/game_of_tomes at 1:30 PM PST / 3:30 PM CST / 9:30 PM UTC to find out!”

Last night was crazy. Nobody expected the bats to fall this soon! And they are in third place?! Living, you better get writing! #NovNov #Got
A chart titled “Game of Tomes – Nov 2025 Week 1.” It shows major houses in a writing event along with their word counts. The houses listed are Lapin, Ailurus, Mollusca, Undead Horde, Sauropoda, and Chiroptera. Chiroptera has 89,888 words, and that number also appears in the “Total Words” column. A total event word count of 1,476,103 is shown at the bottom. Minor houses Avis and Meles are listed next to Lapin and Ailurus. The other house numbers are still blacked out since they didn’t fall yet. A black and parchment-textured graphic showing two sigils side by side. On the left is a green–yellow shield with a zombie hand rising from dirt and a ribbon reading “Amass the Horde.” On the right is a stylized white and red nine-tailed fox mask logo labeled “Kitsune-Gumi.” Beneath them it says “29,962 Words Fall to the Horde“.

Challenge week is over! Thank god we didn’t ignore anything else during that time, right?

Right?

The self care mafia is here to help and to remind you that it’s alright to take breaks, but is also alright to get your life together. We even have a bingo 😊
A motivational poster titled “The Self Care Mafia” at the top, with “GameOfTomes.org” written beneath. The background shows a stylized cityscape at sunset with streetlights glowing. To the lower right stands a cute orange cartoon fox wearing a gray fedora hat. The text in the middle is: “During challenge week, a lot of things got put on hold. That’s fine, really, don’t you worry! I’m just saying that if you want to try to create new litmon, the thing in your mug from three days ago doesn’t quite count. Let’s try to clean up a bit. The faster you’re done, the faster you’re back at writing :3” from Bard

You’ve done some words. You may have hit your goal for the challenge week (and if you did, you get more cheers from all of us). Or you might have not, but you still deserve the cheers for trying! If you’re still going, then keep at it! Just don’t forget to take a break, stretch it out, hydrate, hug the loved ones, eat, and pet the pets. We’re so proud of you!” from Sunny

We are deep in our Challenge week. It’s Nanowrimo time, y’all, (not the organization) and the houses are already looking for the Nite Monarq… but where are they?
@amywintersvoss.com @foxwriter.bsky.social where are you?
@bardwithmanynames.bsky.social why the sudden tour? @attorraru.bsky.social ?
A fictional news article speculating who the nee Nite Monarq could be. Bard with many names aka the nite Monarq from last year acts suspiciously by going on a tour wearing a mask, but shyredfox and FoxWriter have gone missing… though Attorraru vouches for them? What is happening?

Being a fantasy writer is typing "they extended an olive branch" and then going "shit, do they even have olives in this world?"

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...
Ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee Bennie G. Thompson said in a statement “Mobile Fortify is a dangerous tool in the hands of ICE, and it puts American citizens at risk of detention and even deportation.” He also said “ICE officials have told us that an apparent biometric match by Mobile Fortify is a ‘definitive’ determination of a person’s status and that an ICE officer may ignore evidence of American citizenship—including a birth certificate—if the app says the person is an alien. ICE using a mobile biometrics app in ways its developers at CBP never intended or tested is a frightening, repugnant, and unconstitutional attack on Americans’ rights and freedoms.”

I’ve been fighting for years to unmoor myself of the “grind-set mindset” I developed in business school but holy shit it’s hard when that way of thinking is imposed on us in everyday life.

THIS IS THE MOVIE THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE.

As the story explains, this was a struggle to get out there.

If you are an indie theater or performing arts space who wants a night of comedy, please let me know and I will get you the DCP. October 2, y’all.
