I accidentally had a nap, but considering I stayed up until 1am and woke ludicrously early for that, I probably needed it.

I have been kind of thinking about role-play red flags, and I think one of the biggest ones I have heard of and never had happen to me is the intentional ignoring of triggers. Especially since for some people, triggers are there because they cause severe emotional distress like panic attacks or even deep depressive episodes; not to mention, I myself use these to put a boundary between what I am and am not willing to write. Thus, it wilds me out that people actually don't care about someone's triggers and just ignore them to do what they want anyways. x.x

I hate when I feel super tired and cannot write. Imma blame the rudeness of yesterday's anxiety for this.

9/10 I google, but sometimes, my brain just... magically comes up with a good name for a character? I cannot explain it. Recently, since Pinterest has aesthetical name images, I have been saving a few of those when I like the ring of the name for later use.

Just adding- Honestly, I struggle more with surnames than first names myself. Usually I just end up using Behind The Surname and scrolling through until I find something that works or depending on the character's nationality I may look up names under specific regions.

Automatic trackers are so cool and useful. I wish I had known about these sooner because I like knowing all my threads are being tracked automatically.

Awkward moment when you link the opening day thread to the conference draft thread instead of the proper announcement... Whoopsie!

Ladies, gentlemen & nonbinaries, today is the day when you can enter the veil of darkness. Thank you all for your support and I hope those of you who wish to join enjoy the site. <3 It has taken some time and may need a little more freshening up as needed.

Somehow, I finished this character’s history and personality traits in the morning and over my hour lunch finished the 2 other sections and 90% of the last one… Now I just need to add likes/dislikes after that last 10% and he can be handed in. Wow, what happened muse-wise me?

Sometimes I remember the compliments people have kindly given my writing and it acts as a serious confidence boost. ^-^ It is good to know my efforts were worth it.

I think if I have time and spoons before date night, I’m going to work on writing up the wanted ads. I ideally want them prepared before opening day so people have options the day of.
