I'm doing a #RimWorld character diary for my take on #NaNoWriMo this year. \o/
I'll be doing writing updates on here.
While the actual diary entries will end up on my gaming blog:

I decided to cut my writing (of the RimWorld story) short this month, because I was trying to do a little bit too much at once.
But the last episode is up. It can be viewed as the end of a chapter. :)

I've published the final part of my #RimWorld character journal.
I figured I could round of the story here, at least for this "chapter", and if you and I want it to be picked up in the future, it can.
Luxenburg finds the sculpture that Von and Cannon brought with them when they left the colony.
When you realize that the version of a text you're reading is actually possibly simplified by changing a lot of the phrasing and language, and you don't know if you should just start over (no I shouldn't because there's no time)....
😭
Most of the resent episodes have been published over on @maloki because internal stress..
Anyways. Here's today's episode of my #RimWorld Character journal:
Day 11, it's raining animals?

folk love to beat themselves up when they're just lying around in bed feeling shit but get this: you need the rest, and if you resist resting you'll feel shit for longer.

Someone recommended this comic to me a few weeks ago, and right after they recommended it, life exploded. I finally sat down to red and OMG OMG I LOVE THIS!!!!
(I'm sorry I don't remember who sent me to it, but whoever you are THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!)
writing woes / reviews and spoilers (as a phenomenon)
I used to be soooooooo sensitive to spoilers, because they'd just etch themselves into my mind, and I'd have trouble ever getting rid of them.
Flash forward to now, I'm trying to lightly review the game I played over the weekend, and .... I don't know how to do it in a balanced way.
What is a spoiler, what should I hide, what shouldn't I mention at all?

My first 5 entries in #NaNoWriMo
I'm writing a character journal for two of my characters in #RimWorld. It's part of my #NaNoWriMo this month, and I'm not counting words.
RimWorld is a game, that has labeled itself as a story generator, so I thought I'd actually use it as one!

As per the title I used last year for my blog post, I think I may end up with the Not So Novel Writing Month.
I'm aware people still will use #NaNoWriMo as a way to connect with that community.
But #NotSoWriMo can work to show that you're not following the 50k goal, but have set your own goals and things.

Luxenburg is trying to find out which way Cannon went.
3 new drafts. 🙏 And if I edit them tomorrow, means I can take the weekend look off.

Pep Talk #3
Confession time: I haven't been writing. This should not come as a surprise to me, as I've done this same thing basically for two decades now, and yet it is. In my heart of hearts, I know I should be writing, but I can still somehow never really write. Not regularly. Not the way I imagine it - and what I imagine is not some romantic every-day-or-else-I'll-die-I'm-a-writer-see kind of way. (Nothin
Is ?.? a good title for a post? :P
I've scheduled day 5, and I'm going to edit day 6 now.
I made a minor change, so I added the "world state" I guess it can be called. Like when a solar flare happens, it will be listed next to the date. Or in this case "what is this purple rain"

@ljwrites yeah. I hate -- and I mean HATE -- that whenever this happens, BIPOC have to go into Education Mode, where we correct their racist assumptions in a way that's calm and collected, while they melt the fuck down...
fuckin' white privilege in action.
