Writes 'contest winning fan artist' in crayon on my profile

[olivermoss]

* Black Tabby Games was running a promotion where fan artists were entered for free Scarlet Hollow keys. I didn't know that was a thing when I did my fan art, but I won?

* For April Fool's Sega was like 'we listened to your feedback, and based on it we killed Sonic' and then released a free visual novel game to investigate his death. I've started the game... so now I own and have played a Sonic game. I'll probably finish it.

* So much fic editing this weekend, might post about that later. Doing trello-type posts here actually does keep me organized.

Hey, that's a completely valid thing to include in your list of accomplishments!

I saw some screenshots of the April Fool's Sonic game, haha

I'm glad that the posts here have helped with the fic organization! And congratulations on the editing!

Thanks!

Yeah, posting here helps but I usually feel weird or awkward posting. IDK posting too much about my fic makes me feel like a poser. But, using that format works for me somehow.

Yeah, posting overmuch feels a little weird, or like its own form of procrastinating from the actual writing.

At the same time... I like hearing about how things are progressing, or how the whole process goes. And especially because you ARE getting things done, it definitely doesn't seem at all poser-ish to me, haha.

I feel like 'posting about my writing' is for cooler, more prolific writers, more established ones... but that doesn't make sense because this is my journal so... it should be where I figure things out.

Thanks. I am trying to plug away at everything

Deny that impostor syndrome! (Even as I totally get it.) But you are a writer who has definitely "earned your -er" in terms of actually DOING the writing! You don't have to be super prolific or an extreme BNF or whatever for it to be worthwhile to write about your process and progress. Especially in your own journal about the things that are important to you.

Also, I like reading about process stuff.

Congrats on your win!
