updates on updates

So, it took a solid week for me to even be able to look at a word document again after I deleted my last chapter of Gravity Well, but I’ve now started anew on C5 onward. I’ve moved everything into MS Word with a pretty teal background to keep me in a cheery mood, and I’m planning to finish this fic before I post it. Since I know where I’m going with it, I think I can finish it in a not significant amount of time if I maintain my sanity. 

I’ve also found I just cannot work on modern AUs and this fic at the same time, because I get my characterizations muddled. I can write multiple modern AUs at once, but I’ve learned this fic is a selfish bitch and wants all my attention. 

The next project will be to finish Threshold. I’ve ordered myself a lovely art that I’ll post with the last chapter. -sob-

Then I’m going to tackle the rest of ‘i can see through you,’ which will wrap up part one with 3 more chapters and then I’ll have a new section to work on for their college years (but it’s all one very linear story so it will all go in the same fic). 

@pandalolli and I are trying something new with the Viking fic (Out From The Well of Destiny), in which we are re-rping the ongoing chapters, which I’ll touch up and post. This will probably be the only updates that I’ll have online for a while. 

After THAT, I have another AU in my head that won’t go away, so. The wheels keep turning.

Thanks to everyone that has been kind and supportive. I estimate I’ll be back to posting fic around May? I’ll still be around in the community reading fic, commenting on things, and staring at art with hearts in my eyes. Feel free to come chat with me.

Love ya’ll!

You want some real legitimate advice about mental health? Stop being mean to yourself.

Like, when you wanna say mean shit about yourself either internally or externally, work to learn how to step back a moment and remind yourself that what you are doing is a form of self-harm and not a fair or legitimate judgement on you as a person, and furthermore is not productive to your survival or well-being.

Even if you fuck something up, you can resolve to do better in the future, you can tell yourself that you’re going to make this a learning experience, and even if you’ve made the same mistake 50 times already, telling yourself you’ll get it right someday if you just keep trying will always do you better than calling yourself an idiot and beating yourself up for not being able to get it right.

Take it from me, a lot of mental health shit is a product of your environment and personal history, and therefore you really don’t have the control over it that you need to get by without others’ help, but one thing you can have some control over is whether you’re going to be a friend to yourself or just another enemy, and if you want to survive, you’ve gotta strive to be in your own corner as best you can.
