ofsilentthings - in my madman era

It's really not fair how so many extra costs are involved in higher education, especially subjects that require consumables (art, specifically).
Are there not grants or free libraries for like, I don't know, gently used modeling paste?

My piece for @bg3hallozine.bsky.social -- an explicit fic about Auntie Ethel called 'Loss'. Please check the tags!

Tonight on the writing docket?
Gaslighting gently.

Pro- cuddles with the kid on the couch while she watches YouTube.
Con- kinda hard to write a bathing scene when your kid is is a *really* good reader.

same... it's hard to take a break for so long and then come back to princes / Friede / Nameless King.

Finished icon comm for @romulus-ac.bsky.social's boy Mateo! he's always a pleasure to paint 🌞

Nice porno. Interesting shots, compelling dialogue. Unfortunately, it fails to capture the dismal, doomed atmosphere of Dark Souls 1.

this meme I found is 10000% relevant to my story

take a seat, though you will *hopefully* only need the edge.

today's writing is sponsored by the Broken Saints soundtrack. I need lyric free music to write sometimes.

writiiiiing uuugh let's go as the young folks say

i died
truly I have fallen into despair

thanks....tougher than the princes ....

Have to install ER
While that installs I try Bloodborne.
I'm at Amelia, I'm in my 40s, this should be easy.
Nope. Nope.
...
Back to Soldier of God, Rick.

Decided I'd pick up DS3 after a long time (year plus). Load the save, I'm sitting right in front of the Princes.
Uh, let's 'warm up' with ER and come back to you both.

I hope you made a wish!
(and then get the star fragment tomorrow)

oh boy am I excited about writing tonight
We hit the turning point - where one plot intersects with another, and things get scary and change.
I really hope I can do this moment justice.

WRITER SPOTLIGHT from THE FINAL DAYS OF YAHAR'GUL: Micolash inhales the final days of Yahar’gul in the form of a strong sea wind stolen from memories of his childhood coastal village. A death smell, salty brine bringing finality. Of course he is working when it comes; he has not stopped working, not since that prophetic visit years ago that showed him his destiny. Still, he is taken by surprise. He regards his fingers. Sickly, frail, arthritic, pressed against the lining of stomachs turned inside out, the smooth underside of lips, the inside of the brain. A vessel held together with sutures he and countless other scholars have placed. A bespoke suit fit for a Great One. Between the scents of decaying flesh and formaldehyde and starched collars of the choir in the church he has built on the bones of innocents, he inhales the briny deep. Yahar’gul is nowhere near the ocean, but here is his reminder that everything returns to the sea. The breeze blows again, making him shaky on his platform. The revelation clenches his heart with fear as he leans onto the vessel, holding tightly for support. He looks down. He is balanced on a piece of wood between two tall ladders. Over a pool of primordial blood, iridescent like oil, but in purples and blacks and grays. The sea wind blows yet again. When he finally understands what the whispers asks him, (not through words, per se, but rather like the sea foam fractalization of the cosmos) he is afraid. Not of the coming of the end of his toils, but rather, if he is ready to meet it. (Hunter's Mark: A Bloodborne Anniversary Zine)

(repost with correct info)

On November 24th, a free Bloodborne fanzine celebrating 10 years will come out! Here's a snippet of my submission (about ya boi, Micolash).

I made it just in time! Now to enjoy some good ol' dice rolling.

ngl one of the toughest challenges to a nanowrimo-esque challenge is having a Pathfinder session during your normal writing time. I've been trying to make up the words during the day but it's sooo sloooooow

From my current draft of my novel(la)? YOUR NAME IS JANE:

My daughter isn't learning cursive but she's learning how to read it at least. They balance handwriting with computer literacy. Even their standardized tests are taken on a computer.

(she then comes home and asks me how to write her name in cursive, so maybe the aesthetic isn't completely dead)

🎃 HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃

In the words of Dr. Frankenstein: "It's alive, it's alive!". After months of hard work from everyone, our two-part #BG3 zine is here.
