Did I just peel open my sleep-crusted eyes and find a new and less invasive version of the social feed? 
          	
          	Well I’ll be damned. I may be a week late to the news, and she’s already gone stale like a sack of bread left at room temp, but considering I’m always late to things… my flabbers ARE gasted. 
          	
          	Now, all that’s left to do is cackle at the Dutch translation used. They kept it literal. Social feed. Feed as in animal feed. And before you come pounding at my door, you should see my arms are raised. They could’ve used anything, in my opinion. Sociaal voer sounds like the odd duck out, but then again, where would Wattpad be without its machine translated orange app?

@Disgrace_the_Gods, well it’s quite the vibe.
          	  
          	  and yes, i did! the russian translation isn’t so bad it is just formal? instead of saying newsfeed / notification reel it says like newsreel? the old timey kind, i think? not as bad as animal feed vs social feed but still sorts funny ))

 #ONC2024 update 2: With the first deadline less than 24 hours away, I published the introductory chapter (Bevezetés) of my open novella contest entry 'The Portrait' in which a struggling artist is hired to paint the portrait of a wealthy recluse in a mansion that seems to live a life all its own. 
          
          Later today I will publish the first official chapter! Lastly, I will try to post the upcoming chapters within 1-1,5 week intervals.
          
          Happy writing y'all!!

ONC2024 update #1: Halfway through the first month and I’m thinking of changing everything—prompts, plot and characters—for my ONC entry. 
          
          Wish me luck ಥ‿ಥ

@chaikovskiy Thank you! I went and planned a whole new novella in a day. One I’m actually exited about and confident in. Something entirely different than what I had originally planned, but that suits my style and vibe more. So I’m rearing to go!
