Monday, Embuggerances and Further PLNs

I have a method(tm) for dealing with the ankle interruptions. I'm calling it "drips and drops" and it also deals with the fanficcery I've got running. When I go to ice my ankle, I put drips and drops of thoughts into each WIP I have on the burner.

It worked to get me half a chapter, last Friday. It worked to get several chunks into various fanfics. I have confidence that it can work today.

I've posted the video on Peertube for today, and am about to launch my daily nonsense. Mayhem slept in this week and is working from home as a direct result. Lad's going to get The Lecture about personal responsibility and sticking to a schedule. Probably from both Beloved and I.

The writer's group has gathered to discuss stuff and things, which is always great company for ideas and nonse.

Soon - The daily fiction supply.

Challenge #04641-L257: Industry Cottage

They had just graduated school and badly wanted to be a merchant. Seeing a traveling elf with the gnome friend riding on the back of a fluffy, happy, cat, they asked the three adventurers "You've traveled far and wide, adventurers, haven't you? What kind of shops are popular?" -- Anon Guest

[AN: Gnomes are small, but not that small. Something about Mundane-born species having real physical limits, shapeshifting into one means you have to look like one etc etc. TLDR: I'm not

Sunday, Plots and PLNs

So I looked up my downloaded docs to see if I had other ideas for All Hallows' Read and -nope- there goes that thin hope. So I'll farm a few ideas in Ellipsus or, if it works for me, Scrivener.

So no Halloween story this year. Maybe next year. I don't know. All I need is something scary to write about, and there is plenty to be scared of in this cruel world.

The trick is turning it against the perpetrators, Twilight

Challenge #04640-L256: Fall of the Empire

Within the parliament of the lavish Elven city a human commander grits her teeth in disgust. 18 months of fighting the black tide, watching her comrades fall, cutting down children and the elderly that had fallen to the corruption, and for what? Slammed doors and a spit on the face from these so called “higher races”.

The commander nearly shatter her communication crystal in her hate filled grip as she spoke: “All units, [Code: Black] negotiation has fallen. Grab every civilian and

Challenge #04639-L255: The Kindness Cut

The comments from you both make me want to turn it into a prompt.

A haven world the humans turned into a massive farm planet with tons of crops and lots of well-kept and cared for farm animals. Heh, and that "small amount"?

"We just want around 2% of the total harvest to feed the needy in return for this, if that's ok?"/"Only 2%? Hell take 5%!"

"You sure? That's a lot."/"It's only 5% of the total harvest, not as

Friday, Strategising PLNs

I've been going on drips and dribbles with ADT these last two days. Mostly because the lure of three firkin fanfics are calling me with their siren song. I'm aiming to use my ankle icing time to add a few sentences into one work or another. I successfully added a sentence to three fics so this break will focus on the book first, and then drift off to wherever the muse drags me.

So far, so good.

The bread's done, the story's

Challenge #04638-L254: Not What You Think it Means

The Warlock that had been pushing them so hard to get her, had a sinister motive. They're hesitating, can they figure out his motive before he talks these, his latest victims, into the unthinkable?

Three turned to face Zygo, who was panicking more than a little. "She promised me," he said. "She promised we would be safe when we went through."

"Your patron," said Ebberhandril, "the devil, made a promise."

"All right, all right,

Thursday, Shopping, Recording and PLNs

Well I got input on the story I was aiming to have out for All Hallows' Read, and... it should stay in the drawer. Nobody else is seeing it.

End of discussion.

I'll talk with my lovelies about the premise, and if that gets greenlit, I'll approach it from another angle.

So... no horror story this year. Maybe next one.

It is what it is. Moving on.

I have a shopping journey, bread in the incubator, and a bad ankle. I forgot

Challenge #04637-L253: Do NOT Create the Torment Nexus

“At last, I’ve created the Torment Nexus,” said the Protagonist of the classic story you’re about to read, right now. -- Deathshead419

[AN: Thanks a fuckbunch (/sarcam) ]

Neuroscience had made amazing leaps forward. They not only mapped the human cerebrum, but were controlling it to a certain extent. Laws, of course, insisted that such methods could only be used for therapeutic purposes. Which was fine and good. Advances were made against depression and psychosis. They even found a remedy for

Challenge #04636-L252: Girl Goose

King Nydon is defeated. Chained in his dungeons is the visage of his supposed daughter with the brain of an unfortunate Goose. Simple enough to turn the poor creature back. Only, the goose princess reacts violently to the proposition and… is she trying to talk with human words? Oh no. Looks like Wraithvine and the Twin Mages will have to figure out who’s to care for this creature… -- Deathshead419

[AN: Whoops, I turned her back to goosiness in an earlier

Tuesday, Patreon, Videos, and Shenanigans

So... I may have kind of sort of sidled into writing three fanfics whilst also attempting to finish off the SIXTH GORRAM BOOK of my "brief little thing".

So it's time to bust out this little chestnut:

[Shown here: An etching of an anticommunist propaganda piece featuring a skeleton in a "communist" sash. It is carrying a large scroll that has been altered to say "Lord help me, I'm back on my bullshit"]

On one hand - more to share with my

Challenge #04635-L251: Here Comes Trouble

The Stars begin to fall from the sky and shatter on the ground. Quick! Catch them! Surely something terrible will happen if they all break. -- Deathshead419

The Great Golden Dragon and the Great Silver Dragon were going to have a clutch, so they gathered together the firmament into solid shapes to make the perfect world for their children. It would have mountains and oceans, and plenty for all the dragons to eat. Caves and caverns for the ones who wanted to

Monday, Dentist and Maybe Other Things

Woke up at 3AM and did half a chapter. Hooray. Then commenced to prepare my good self for a trip to the dentist's later on. Yay. Fully aware that I have not regularly brushed my teeth since an incident with my hardy perennial depression. Whoops.

I have finished a story for All Hallow's Read. Huzzah. I need it sensitivity read before I leap ahead and prepare for book launch. It might be too nightmare fuel for my trans readers.

It's also highly
