well i took a break for a hot minute there on account of uh. breaking my fuckin elbow! but im back in the writing groove (mostly) and claws is coming along pretty nicely!

okay let's do this thing

i have finished the filler/crutch words cull from this draft, yay!

i have also realised that reading this thing aloud for final checks later is going to take my poor TTS program like 9 hours TT_TT

i have finished another draft of this book!! in less than a year it's gone from hot mess it pains me to think about, to a thing i am so so excited for people to read. truly the power of gay elves can accomplish anything

today is an 'aggressively colour code and emoji-sticker my to-do list' day because yesterday my brain did Not want to co-operate about anything, so today we apply the 'small and uncooperative child who needs lots of treats' treatment

also i realised i was psyching myself out of coming on here bc when i first joined i used one of those artist megafollow lists and it filled my entire feed with Way Too Many People I Don't Know Yet and it was overwhelming. i have unfollowed most of that list now. much less firehose.

i should probably just start posting. i have never known what to post anywhere in my life ever, why not continue that energy here. scribbling on the first page of the Perfect Notebook energy.
