hello!!
I've been going through a small writers block recently. kind of weird to say, since it wasn't that long since i left my YEARS long one, but surprisingly, it doesn't bother me as much this time. anyway, i still have some ideas, i've been enjoying new things, and there's some stuff i want to work on that i'm definitely not very comfortable with writing (yet!!) which is both really scary and exciting.
here's the challenge/to do list i'm hoping to work on in the next.. idk how long!
i don't exactly know how or when i'm going to do it, but i'll probably start from number 1, since i could technically write out first draft right away... -- that's such a fun thing to say for me. i used to be a "first draft is final draft" kind of writer but i want to try and switch things up. idk. we'll find out! after that i think i can switch between the two, since number 3 is slow for me and number two is something i'd like to plan more for since it involves a lot of game strategy stuff + i want to reread a novel for fight scene inspirations, but i might even pick up a new one i've been eyeing as well before that!
i think my favourite part of all this is that it's all for me. it's purely fueled by my own love for these things, and there's little to no anxiety about dealing with fandom and other fans about it, which is what has stunted me so much recently. it's not that i don't want to get back to being okay with posting and talking to others again, engaging with fandom, because fuck i miss it, but right now i am excited to do this just for me!
hope you guys are doing okay! for the first time in a long time i'm feeling really hopeful and excited. less doubtful, even though i'm sure that will change when i do get to writing, because these ideas are all kinda scary to me in different ways, but i'm looking forward to it!

here's the challenge/to do list i'm hoping to work on in the next.. idk how long!
- end of the world. a gen story about two characters from my beloved game solving cases that are mentioned about dead people and then, uh, watching the end of the world together. it's only really a nickname, bc i didn't want to name it after the song that inspired the final part.
- ACTION esports au. double crossover. or not. who knows? i have been watching the king's avatar last few days, and while watching the movie i finally decided. i want to write an action story like it, which is super hard and out of my comfort zone, because it deals with so much.. idk, not just normal fighting, and often many other factors and characters than just, you know, regular fight scenes. even so, i think it'll be super fun for me, and i have a lot of ideas from my own time being active in an esports fandom lmao.
- the introspection series. idk if you can call it a series. first it was only one char, then it became two. i might even try and write more, but for now its just a series of oneshots from diff characters povs about meeting the main character.
