Beloved came home in the wee small hours, and I had some aggressively intermittent sleep until like 7AM. By then, the heat was already into the day and I couldn't therefore get the catio cleaned up early.
Blargh.
Fingers crossed, this afternoon will be cool enough to allow me to do that.
If not, tomorrow morning will be the next bet.
Onwards to the Patreon posting and the story of the day.
Let's do this.
I have cleaned the catio before I sat down to write. I am keeping my temptation to play Dyson Sphere Program at bay until I have at least done the mandatory output.
Last time I tried fixing a map, the app crashed. I try again today.
I also aim to feed my starters, summarise a chapter, and tag a week of fic.
There will be Bikkie.
Tomorrow promises to be interesting, as the morning is full of Parkrun and the evening is
Read more »Beloved binged chapters right up to The Kiss(tm). Which means that there's VERY FEW chapters between where she's up to and where I'm writing.
So I really should hustle some more chapters.
BUT I also have to fix a dungeon map, tag a week for the app, summarise a chapter for the pitmad. And find a moment for myself to chill and enjoy stuff.
I'm feeling a little pressed right now.
But I know Beloved understands me and will ease off
Read more »I have written and posted my entry for the Tale Foundry this week. I actually wrote it this morning.
I have commenced the chapter in which my main protagonists of A Devil's Tale finally lock lips. This is something I've been anticipating for some time.
I can only hope I do it all justice.
Onwards to my PLNs today is to post the Patreon stuff, correct some errors in a dungeon map, try to get the tagging and summarising done, and then

Sigh.
I shall get on with today's tale, do the Tale Foundry reads and then get on with fixing the issues I gave myself. As

I have had a post-perambulatory reward. I have had a nap. I have futzed around on Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
So now I really should get on with other stuff. Starting with the daily tale.
Tomorrow's game session is early in my morning, and there's a higher chance that I will be streaming after Tale Foundry, so keep an eye out on that.
Onwards,

I have done the Blorbo meme over on Blajaj
So now I'm all set to do more set dressing, fic tagging, and chapter summarising.
I tried to do a new cover with Lunacy, but...
It's a bit on the pathetic side.
Look you:
[Shown here: The cover for 2022's Year of Instants as if made by someone who's heard it
I have my meds [Yay!] and I have learned that they discontinued the best brand so now I have to settle for the next best thing.
So far, so good. It took a while to kick in but I am no longer in agony from the light of my monitor so all is well.
I'm getting on with getting on, today.
Posting stuff on Patreon today. Y'all are getting some Tale Foundry at firkin last. It's been a while.
I have one whole new Patron! Yay! One more dollar in the monthly payments that keep my cats in the luxury to which they have become accustomed.
On my agenda today:
I have a massive cyclone migraine right now so I shall focus on my outputs
Read more »Tale Foundry is about to stream, I am going to try recreating my usual trick of writing a story before the stream ends.
See how I go, as I have zero ideas for this week's prompt.
I shouldn't force it to be KoshDelia, but I keep thinking KoshDelia thoughts about it.
Meh.
Also at some point today, I should make The Bikkie.
Tonight, I shall do the stream thing and y'all have a chance to catch me writing even more of A

I'm seeing my shrink today, and shopping on the way back home. We need cream and I need snackabobs and the fam would love to have pasta sauce.
I'll see what I can get with what I've got.
In Devil's Tale news, I

The current PLN to fix my compy issues is to replace the coolant tube thing that may be the source of my temperature issues. That's probably not happening today. It might not be happening tomorrow.
As an extra bonus fun time, my compy likes to cut off
Read more »I needed a day away from expectations. Something to remind myself that it's okay to take my time with things. I am up to set dressing on a map and that's a stage of progress.
I will be likely inspired to go further, but I won't be going very far today because I'm off adventuring in meatspace, starting this afternoon.
I have to leave the house at half-past 3 to catch a train at 4 so I can get to a place
Read more »The new schedule is looking a little like this:
3-7AM: Lounge around with Beloved, maybe read and maybe edit something.
8AM(ish): Getting ready for the day
9AM(ish): blogging and editing until Curse O'Clock
10AM: Curse O'Clock
11AM: Back to my bullshit. Stream set-up.
12PM: Streaming!
1PM-4PM: The rest of my bullshit
4PM-on: Relax time!
The last two depend on the ability of my back to put up with me doing stuff.
I'm going to spend my hour in the curse
Read more »The cursed mower started working just after I got everything together to move it. Hooray, I guess. So my heavy lifting was hauling boxes of stuff off to lifeline with the full understanding that I have a zippy little TARDIS car that can move lots of stuff at once.
I now have a completely improvised phone holder for those fun occasions where I need my GPS. It still needs some tweaking, but that won't be happening today.
TODAY my focus is on:
