For the moment, links between story parts are something I'll have to add. Also, another thing isn't working but it isn't essential so it's not a high priority to fix.

I'm a sci-fi/fantasy writer in treatment for depresssion. I haven't written much lately, but I hope I can get the magic back. Asexual.

I've been spending some time working on the website! Wordpress has gone through a few updates and some plugins were causing problems. It's okay, I took care of it.

I'm still here! Hope you're all doing well.
I haven't written much in the past couple of years, but I'm doing okay in life, and that's what matters.
I've been doing okay, though. Definitely more good days than bad. And the bad days I've mainly just stayed in bed and rested. :)

I didn't get any writing done in January like I hoped I would.
Mostly I've just been so busy on the computer that I forget to make a note on the to-do list. Doesn't help that I haven't completed anything on the list since December.

Hey guys!
I haven't done a whole lot of writing this year. Mostly I've been taking time to reflect and get myself back into a routine with the help of my trusty Echo Dot.
It's funny how having an outer voice reminding you to do stuff is more effective. :)
I need to charge the laptop now. :P

My favourite line is "[She's] learned to say 'Hello sweetie' as a way of getting him in the right frame of mind for more hijinks."

I wrote 260 words of Jane's Secret Life. It's an okay start.

Thankfully, I didn't completely forget to write. Alexa said "I'm reminding you - do some writing."
She's a tough boss to please. :D
Sat down to write Jane's Secret Life about an hour ago. Haven't written a word yet, haha.
Remember how last year in September I wrote about an idea I had for a story called Jane's Secret Life?

We want to be able to see the sets and the characters, not squint at them through a film of blackness.

One of the things that really annoys me about 'modern' shows is that the lighting is 'realistic.'

Can I just say that what little bits of Star Trek Discovery I've seen, it seems that they've fallen into the darkness trap?

Anyway, maybe 2018 will be different. I sure hope things get better.

Not just because I feel tired and demotivated but also self-doubt.

Also, I'll be honest, depression has made it difficult to do writing.

So it's annoying when someone who obviously hasn't watched the original series of Star Trek complains that rapid ageing isn't 'realistic.'

I actually spent a number of hours remaking parts of the mod for the Beta 18 version of RimWorld.

Unfortunately, with popularity comes a lot of unwanted attention. Mostly, people who want me to change the mod.

My most popular RimWorld mod of 2017 (and all time) was Sometimes Raids Go Wrong.

I didn't do a lot of writing in 2017.
It was more of a 'make mods for RimWorld' kind of year.

Windows update failed so I'm stuck watching the 'Restoring your previous version of Windows...' screen. :P
I'm going to try to answer some questions about Jane's Secret Life pre-emptively (see my note from yesterday).... fb.me/3OWNjxOOS
My neck hurts a little bit. Probably from not sitting properly. Hopefully it'll clear up in a few days!
It feels quite warm tonight, though it probably has something to do with me walking home in a winter jacket.
Here's a post on Facebook explaining it in more detail:

Well, it's noted down in my list of story ideas now. Maybe I can get around to it sometime soon. :)

I had a new story idea today. Not sure if I'm going to note it down and come back to it later, or do something with it now.

So, if you're ever buying frozen lasagne or anything else with plastic a tray, remember that frozen plastic is brittle. Don't drop it. :/
I made a small bit of progress on the story tonight, about 300 words. But it's very early morning now, so I'll have to pack it in. Night!
As I mentioned in my Facebook post tonight, simulated characters deserve to be more than disposable bad/good guys. :)
I had a tough time tonight getting something written. Last time I was writing (I think it was the middle of last... fb.me/6CWeijtXO
I watched TNG: Encounter at Farpoint for the first time in a while.
I'm glad I did. :)
