Went back and listened to @ianboothby.bsky.social & @piaguerra.bsky.social's talk at Vancouver Writers Fest so I could actually note down their timbits of wisdom. Here's a thread so you can also double double up your creative well.

Watched @ianboothby.bsky.social & @piaguerra.bsky.social give a wonderful talk at the Vancouver Writers Fest, live on YouTube (couldn't make it in-person). Had to watch the video twice because they are such a lovely, inspiring speakers. And honestly... I think I really needed to hear them today. Thx

Tonight @ 11:30pm PDT I'm playing #SpooktoberVNJam entry *In Loving Memory* + talking with the devs for a bit! I hope you will join us! Download, play, and rate it at floramisu.itch.io/in-loving-me...
Excited to share that I was co-narrative lead for this project! On top of writing and helping to pitch ideas to create an outline... this time I also gained experience managing the writing team and reviewing scripts for story cohesion purposes. All while continuing communication between other depts!
Our #SpooktoberVNJam game, In Loving Memory, is out! Lesbian lovers, an abandoned mansion and echoes of the past at every corner. What will you learn? floramisu.itch.io/in-loving-me... #indiegame #indievn #visualnovel
Tonight @ 11:30pm PT, @mistershins.bsky.social will be playing our Spooktober game live on stream! If you want to check it out on your own, it's here!!! floramisu.itch.io/in-loving-me... @floramisu.bsky.social @applesplosion.bsky.social
Like musicals? Like spies in action? Check out this game I had the pleasure of proofreading. Another great time with an awesome team!
We've released The Show Must Go Out for #NaNoRenO2026, and you can play it NOW! ๐ญ We're also currently working on some post-jam updates and polish, so you will hear more from us soon ;) floramisu.itch.io/the-show-mus... #visualnovel #vndev #indiegame
In the age of folks using AI to replace creatives, it is good to be conscious of what we consume to help support creators. But it's also *very important* to not blindly accuse the use of AI when it's so clear the devs went out of their way to make their passion project human.
Could I get some support from fellow devs and creatives? We got a negative review on Steam for AI use... despite there being absolutely *no* AI use in our game. TL;DR? Give a chance to show that AI wasn't used, or you'll be harming the very same artists you claim to be helping.โค๏ธ

Saw 100 Meters at @sparkanimation.bsky.social and OMG! From the opening shot, to mixed styles, and many of the cinematic choices to linger, etc. I've never wanted to run more in my life. (I don't actually - I was last in every cross country race...) #100Meters @gkids.com gkids.com/films/100-me...
@twosetviolin.bsky.social Was excited to see you have Vancouver on your list. Then was disappointed to realize it's the same night as when I'm going camping with my Girl Guide unit. Enjoy all he boba! (My friend offered a solution, thou.)
