Happy holidays to everyone! Currently rewatching The Flash and writing for Paper Tigers. Beyond that, some life updates: work has been great, got ROSC on a cardiac arrest for the first time (they later died but I've never got them back even once before), and I've been sticking to my workouts with my personal trainer. I even started learning to box. Despite all these good things, I bought my family and most of my friends their Christmas gifts and now have a literal $2 in my account lmfao. I don't like pulling from my savings since I already have but I might have to some more. I've been living paycheck to paycheck pretty much, only able to save up $100 each check really. So I might have to be working more is what I'm saying! XD I work 10-11 days a month (24 hr shifts), plus 2 drill days, so maybe picking up more shifts is the idea to go with here? I have to think more on it. Enough about me, I hope you've all been doing well! If anyone is still active on here and made it this far into my silly little announcement, how are you doing?
@theycallmedoc Happy holidays to you too! Glad to hear work is going good and boxing sounds real cool (Learn enough and you could use it in your fics just like your medic experience/knowledge - super awesome btw)
@jtleigh Thank you my friend, I can pick up 12-hour shifts at my work (mostly cause I cannot go back to anything other than healthcare lol... I can't get back into retail, I feel so purposeless when I work jobs like that; in short, I am addicted to EMS) but I appreciate you telling me about other options!! I am just determined now to do what I can and maybe do medic school next year so I can make more moneyyysss
Still alive! Finished The Owl House today and I’m so sad their worst mistake was ending that show. It was amazing.
My next short story for a submission is a D&D inspired orc butcher named Gorge (short for Gorgeous) who finds a broken bird nest outside his shop and takes the baby bird inside to raise it. My gentle giant. <3 I'm only a quarter of the way through writing it but I love it so much already.
@sunfliers Thank you!! (: if it doesn’t get picked to publish I might just publish it here so someone can enjoy it
Buying ACOTAR series as a whole was the best thing I ever did with my money and I fully stand by that. Should I read Throne of Glass next or Crescent City? Opinions?
@theycallmedoc oh hunnyyyyyyy you're going to want Throne of Glass before Crescent City. ToG is a bit hard to get into right after ACoTaR but it'll be worth it. Then going into CC you'll understand a whole bunch of subtle behind-the-scenes stuff going on
Hi, I wanted to ask about your story of Mr and Mrs Queen. What happened to it ?
@emma608945 Hi Emma! I took that story down since I haven’t written for it in ages! While I focus on other works, it’s sort of on the back burner. It will be back one day though I’m not sure when exactly.
What character tropes do you guys like the most? What character archetypes or developments do you enjoy reading? (simple examples: selfish to selfless, villain to hero, redemption arcs, etc.)
@theycallmedoc I'm a sucker for the Chosen One realizing they've been used/manipulated. Harry Potter and Simon Snow are the character examples coming to mind. It's such a fascinating concept to me, and I love how many different approaches there are to it
Idk if this has a name but characters who trick not only the people around them in the story but the audience reading is so cool !
@theycallmedoc I'm obsessed with redemption arcs for some reason? And I kinda like rivals to lovers romances? I like cutesy characters that are a bit naive but also characters who are rough around the edges with a secret bleeding heart
The urge to trash my original plot and redo it???
I'm watching Virign River right and I'm on season 3 and all I can keep saying about Charmaine is, "F*ck that hoe." I literally cannot stand her. Every moment you think she's changing or getting better, she just proves again how much of a POS she is. I hate her to no end. Possibly even more than I hated Nesta before I finished ACOSF.
Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing well! I feel like I might have the inspiration to keep writing my original story soon (perhaps after I deep clean my apartment like mad today, Kayla knows why lmao-) and I’ll attempt to finish a chapter of a couple fics maybe. No promises. I know I keep saying I’ll write my fics but writer’s block has me down bad. Life updates include me working with a new personal trainer since last week (the other one stepped back with all her clients so she could finish and focus on college <3) and I’m dead every time we workout. Ran another mile today and improved my 1 mile time from 12-13 something to 11:49 which doesn’t seem like much, I know, but it means everything to me. And I’m so proud of myself for that. I’m also almost ready to start running my DND campaign for my friends + brother. I thought about getting another kitty but decided against it because having 2 is crazy enough on my budget. And I’m almost finished reading A Court of Silver Flames — for the longest while I could NOT continue because of how much I disliked Nesta. As loathe as I am to admit it, I’m beginning to like the person Nesta is becoming in the later half of the book. Plus Gwyn and Emerie make it better too. Those are my updates. I’m not really “doing much” I guess lol but trust I stay busy. How are you all? Anything big I’ve missed?
@indirys just finished it last night at work and WOW I am amazed!! I'm not gonna lie, I ended up loving it. I've been the biggest hater of Nesta (silently, mostly to myself and to a couple friends who have never read the series lmao) but, truly, with how much she'd changed by the end I now thoroughly enjoy her character. But now I'm sad because I have nothing else I wanna read right now :')
