A 3597-post collection

Tuesday, Patreon and PLN

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 finish the dang chapter I started this morning.

I dearly want to finish the chapter. I've been looking forward to this for MONTHS, my dears.

I shall commence with the Patreon.

Monday, Ongoing PLNs

I have to go fix a dungeon map because what I believed to be a rendering error was not quite the rendering error I thought it was. Fun times ahead there. But there is the Wall Tool and it will do what I want it to. Draw a firkin wall where I wanted a wall all along.

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

Sunday, Game Night, the Blargies

I don't know what came over me this morning, but I couldn't hang on for the Tale Foundry, let alone stream.

So I cancelled the story stream and went for a nap. Not sure it took.

BUT it is the afternoon, so I should probably force it happening.

Gave the starters/harvest product to my Beloved while I napped and she's still about to make a start. Sigh.

I'll focus on the story and then crawl back to bed and hope for

Saturday, Parkrun and Pooped

I think I got some good exercise in despite the depredations of Sneezin' and Wheezin' Season plus my knees trying to sabotage me. It was a good walk through the Chermside Parkrun, and probably just as well.

Temperatures today SUCK.

Which is why I plan on doing little more strenuous than getting my output done and then slobbing off for the remainder of the day. I might get some set dressing done, but I doubt it.

I got another chapter in the

Friday, A Heads-Up

The PLN today is to take Mayhem over to MeMum's for some heavy lifting before the day gets punishing. So immediately after I publish this blog, I am getting ready and hauling myself and son-of-mine all the way to the other side of Brisbane so we can do that.

And since we're there, we may also be doing some other helpful things. Which may take some time.

So if the story happens today, it shall be happening later. If not, there will

Thursday, Some Small Progress

I have given up on ClipStudio for the meanwhile, and have resolved myself towards creating an all-new, all-different cover for 2022's Year of Instants.

It's been a trial.

So far, I have created the very essential melty clock. Behold:

[Shown here, a clock with visible gears and the 12, 3, 6, and 9 positions replaced with Dec, Mar, Jun, and Sep respectively. The bottom side of the clock is oozing and dripping as if it is becoming liquid]

Fingers crossed, it's a

Wednesday, Wordpress and Cat Food

I really need to hurry along and get the kitters some gooshy foods because (gasp!) we are out of the gooshies.

Horrible circumstance.

There's also dinner and a movie for the date tonight. Just about the only Marvel Hero I want to see on the screen any more besides the good old fuzzy blue Elf. Yeah we're watching the Ant Man movie.

So it's in my best interest to get a rattle on to get the important shopping done straight after I

Monday, Long Monday No More

Thanks to Game Night happening in the early morning, I now have Mondays relatively free!

Huzzah!

For today, my problem is remembering that it's Monday, and not getting a day ahead of myself.

My PLNs today include the Tale Foundry backup reads, dungeon set-dressing, fic tagging, and doing what I can to create more novel.

Beloved's binging chapters at warp speed and it's hard not to feel rushed about it.

I need to go searching for a way to do the dang

Sunday, Game morning & Tale Foundry

Just finished game time with the international maniacs. I'm watching Tale Foundry and about to ponder the prompt.

I also wish to get onto Animal Crossing: New Horizons to do the whole turnip thing. It's a THING. Turnips == profit + stock market joke.

So I'll be warming up the Switch to play whilst I listen to the Foundry.

Story happening live on stream after that. It's going to be fun. The cats wish to be fed hours ago.

Saturday, Parkrun

This time, my defences against Sneezin' and Wheezin Season worked and I did the whole 5K walk. Yay.

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,

Friday, Continuing PLNs

I have cleaned out the Catio. I have fed my Starters and made The Bikkie. I have also recently consumed The Bikkie.

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

Thursday, Remedicated and Revitalised

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.

  • Tag a week
  • Summarise a chapter
  • Set dress some dungeon
  • Figure out WTF I can do with the stuff I have

Wednesday, Wordpress and Doctor's

I need the superior painkillers because Cyclone Season is upon us. Western Australia got the first one, but Queensland's overdue for the second one.

I'm out of those things I need and the prescription is needed for more.

So I might be a little late with getting the nonsense out in the world today. Stay tuned to my socials.

Meanwhile, I shall be working on the stuff for Tale Foundry. Reviews and kudos to everyone who did something neat.

Maybe you'll find

Tuesday, Patreon and PLNs

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:

  • Patreon posts
  • Instant Fiction
  • Tag a week
  • Summarise a chapter
  • Set dress a dungeon/make some critter icons

I have a massive cyclone migraine right now so I shall focus on my outputs
