Updates, Future Plans, Personal Stuff

Time for another update journal! Let’s divide this into commissions, future plans, and personal, shall we?

Commissions

I’m still making my way through the list. Since getting back and getting over a hell of a flu or cold or something, I’ve knocked the remaining comms down to:

Harute11 4 chapters

Franco731 4 chapters

Togswitch 2 chapters

JCFoxman 1 chapter

And 13 (hopefully 12 by end of day) splurge chapters to go.

With the current progress and the speed at which I hope to keep going, I should have all the stuff in the current queue done by Monday, October 20th. If anything changes with the queue, I’ll make sure to let everyone know.

That said, the raffle for comms – and something else – will be open before then, probably around October 12-ish. That way, everyone can get what they need put together before I get started with another cycle.

Thank you for your patience on this one. I started out doing a few stories while overseas, but it ended up being as impossible as ever. I really should learn my lesson from this. Well, at least I’m not staying over there for two months anymore and letting things really pile up.

Anyway, moving on.

Future Plans

As some of you might have noticed, certain things have fallen a bit by the wayside, such as the weekly streams. I used to do those every single week, but ever since moving out, I’ve struggled with having the energy to do that reliably, particularly with any kind of other work during the day. Other things – themed parts of the year, charity work, and other things – have also fallen away.

I want to bring some of that back, so here’s some hopeful plans.

Kink-Tober

First one will be Kink-Tober. Starting late? God, yes, but better late than never. My kink-tober will be spread over the last bit of October and the start/middle of November. The themes will be announced before the 12th, but will be put up as slots to buy around that time. If you want to get a discounted 10-pager, that’d be the time to go looking.

Charity Work

I doubt that I’ll have the time and space to get the charity work done for Christmas this year, but I think that January should be far enough off for me to be able to find a charity, set up a comfortable bank for myself, and then get to work on a charity auction to help someone out. So, no Christmas charity this year, but January should still happen.

Themed Streams

I’ve learned that I’m not going to be able to do these in the same way that I used to, so we’re going to try a few different ways of doing themed streams going forward. These include:

-Week of Streams: Replace the regular commissions with themed streams, ranging from 3-6 pages per person. Takes advantage of the fact that I have more energy in the morning than the evening, and maybe make it more fun. (Not doing this very often)

-Floating Streams: Experimenting with themed streams on different days of the week to try and find days where I have more energy and can do it properly.

-A Story A Day: Taking sign-ups on Sunday and doing 1 3-pager a day throughout the week, allowing for more sign-ups and less immediate work investment.

Not sure which I’ll go for, will probably experiment with them all at some point, but wanted to let you know I was still thinking of them.

And now, finally…

Personal

Last part of the update, just a couple of personal things that I’ve been thinking about since I got home at the end of September.

First off, I’ve learned that I’m quite a bit more of a routine-based person than I ever really realized. Being in the UK from the end of August to the end of September completely fucked my routine, and that meant that I was kind of depressed despite finding a number of fun outlets while there. The fact that my routine focuses around my kitchen and my people (my roommates and some online people only available in my time zone) means that it’s a lot harder to recreate that elsewhere. It’s been a little reminder to prioritize the things that I love, because otherwise I can get real miserable real fast.

Secondly, and mildly contradictorily, I’m finding myself wanting to go and see things, particularly locally. Earlier this year, me and my roommates took a trip around the Olympic Peninsula, and that was about as beautiful as it gets in certain ways. Seeing Cape Flattery, going through parts of the Hoh, and going past Ruby Beach and La Push was honestly awe-inspiring, and I want to explore more of my neck of the woods. So, yes, travel, but not so far off, and not so long-lasting for a bit. This will likely lead to momentary work interruptions, but considering how I am a plan-for-everything bitch, that’ll mean that I know it’s coming, and I can give you guys heads-up when it’s happening.

Might post pictures, too.

Last of all, I’m starting to think of an approaching date: November 5th, AKA my birthday. No idea what I’m going to do for it yet (other than take the day off from work) but I’ll figure out more as it gets closer to the date. Might try something special for creative stuff, no idea. At any rate, if people wanted to know when this dragon celebrates his birthday, that’s the day.

Anyway, there’s your updates, thought I’d keep you current. Back to work for me.
