I need to make me a post

[randomling]

I keep meaning to make a grand life update but I am failing. I keep feeling majorly intimidated by the idea of writing out a whole entry, though, so here are some bullet points.

* I keep meaning to get back into DW development and failing.
* Mental health is variable and dodgy.
* This week I started learning German. I am doing quite well at translating song lyrics, with lots of help from a friend who's a native speaker, Google Translate, cognates, and linguistician's logic. I'm also doing the absolute beginner's course at Livemocha which is teaching me useful things. (But having a native speaker around who's willing to take me through things and geek out with me about linguistics, is invaluable and awesome fun.)
* I have two large WIPs and one short one. (This is just the ones I'm working on right now. The list of languishing bunnies is terrifying.)
* I have started (edit: I mean "started playing in") an RP! I am playing Joel, who is the main character of my languishing paranormal romance novel. He is awesome and it's lots of fun. It's offsite, but I'm considering making him a journal.

That will do for now!

Sounds like some fun new activities!

[randomling]

Very much so! :D

Well, all our other characters still have journals here, so Joel at least wouldn't be lonely.

Now I'm thinking about posting a plot-hedgehog list as well ... thinking ... I probably should use the time for writing instead ...

[randomling]

Aaaaand now he exists.

I really like having my list. It helps to keep things organised!

In fact I have to turn the list-things into Scrivener documents too and pull things together for that...

[silverfox]

Well, I have a list. It just happens to be in a Word doc on a memory stick rather than public and to include a whole lot of completed fics as well as plot hedgehogs.

Enjoy your RP! And good luck with the mental health.

Thank you! <3

Err, yes, development. I promised you a writeup of API issues, didn't I? And it kind of fell into a black hole, and right now I'm out of spoons until May, because I'm under deadlines and projects and whathaveyou.
So, not forgotten, just deferred.

Thank you for letting me know! Don't worry, I totally understand how life sometimes eats your head. <3
