Re-introduction that I can pin:
40 something gender-fluid writer/dancer. You may have read one of my anime articles/features/reviews over the last 20 years by accident.
Other interests include: Ballroom dance, professional wrestling, video games, cooking/good food.
Reading over what I have so far in my WIP2 rough draft. I really cannot wait to go back and make this good, but I need to finish this draft first.

Hold up, is ANN running a paid advert for an AI app? Neither the post or the app listing specifically says "AI" (beyond the app's site address ending in .ai), but it sure strongly hints at it with the phrase 'fueled by your imagination'.

Heads up, manga collectors! We got a manga sale going on to downsize a bit, while trying to pay a sudden car repair cost. Please check it out, give these books a new home and share!
Thank you. ❤️🙇♀️

I used to have a "Fuck the World" playlist with lots of pro wrestling themes and other assorted music to get me pumped up.
Instead of any of those though I'm choosing

Almost time to leave for the first day at my new seasonal job. Guessing today will mostly be paperwork and training videos.
Still not wild about returning to retail, but eyes on the prize and all that shit.
We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps:
-It’s ‘sleight of hand’
-It’s ‘bated breath’
-It’s ‘lo and behold’
-It's 'buck naked'
-It’s ‘brass tacks’
-It’s ‘free rein’
-It’s ‘toe the line'
Today's #Hidden1ups:
- WIP1 artist has officially been commissioned. Promotional/character artwork should arrive and be posted to my Patreon in the spring.
- A good friend (who shall remain nameless until near publication) has agreed to write the foreword.

Just got a birthday coupon for a free value meal from Denny's.
Was going to take advantage of it for lunch today but then I saw "Offer valid for dine‑in only" in the fine print. Bastards.
Spoiler alert for a review that will be published soon:
Cyberpunk Edgerunners Season 2 is *miles* better than season 1.
If you didn't like season 1 for whatever reason, give it a second chance.

Alright... slept in late because I was exhausted.
Woke up, had my coffee/YouTube time, and now I need write before teaching my class tonight.
Starting my new seasonal job tomorrow morning so taking advantage of what little free time I have left.
*determined face*
Btw, if you're local to me, and would like to come help me celebrate my birthday, I'm hosting a dance party tonight in #Bremerton.

I almost did something dumb last night. Got a bit too ahead of myself and almost started drafting WIP3 before WIP1 is published and WIP2 is fully first drafted.
Then I kicked my own ass for even thinking it and realized that way madness lies.

Ok... done with class, done with dinner, and all my friends have gone to bed. I should probably work on my editing now before I fall asleep.
Stupid me being a stupid writer who has to tell stupid stories in order to maintain my slender grip on sanity. 🤣
Good news, I'm done revising. I've fixed all the missing commas, fixed the splices, and rewrote the split infinitives.
Unfortunately in the process I lost about 100 words so I need to pad it out above 35K words for the contest I want to enter.
That can happen tomorrow though.
