I'm still alive e-e
Been staying at the Seven Gun office overnight a few days in a row the last few weeks, churning out 3D art assets.
WE HAVE A GAME OUT
Ramp Champ on the App Store! iPhone and iPad only though.
Our big main project though is kinda in crunch time, we're trying to push for an early December release.
And so I have to crunch out this 3D stuff.
It's burning me out but hey, finally makin game stoofs
I've been re-reading the Spyro script, havent written much due to burn-out but Im reviewing what I need to bring back.
Oh, and my right wrist hurts like hell so I have it in a brace. Had it looked at on monday. nothing major, just stressed and fatigued fine-contol muscles. so if my writing is a tad off, that's why. also another reason i've been reading more than writing.

2023 around the corner
Guess imma have to get a charcoal forge going soon, mom got me some blacksmithing tongs :o New chapter slowly plodding along here while my finger recovers. I have marginal use of my right hand after my middle finger got popped during bowling a week ago. My dominant hand...go figure. Oh well. Gives me time to decompress and think. I haven't been very active this year because of stress issues and mental health strain competing with schedule limitations and uncooperative health insurance, so I haven't been able to get anything diagnosed and been having anger outbreaks and panic attacks almost every week as a result. I got these last two weeks of the year off and of course the first day I get injured trying to do something leisurely. It's been a really bad year, personally. The lack of productivity and reliance on gaming this year has been pushing me to get back on the art train, so this year...well, I've made and dropped a lot of plans in past journals and longer-time readers might be tired of that. Yet another depression issue that's kept me down this year. So next year I'm hoping to get started on...at least some kind of art project. I don't know yet. Deepest Winter has been on hiatus far too long, as well as Temporal Threads. But, I might just start smaller and try to make some shirt designs. I've made and broken too many art vows so...starting small, hopefully I can get myself up to those abandoned ideas. Merry Christmas ya filthy animals, and a Happy New Year :p cookie to who gets the reference.
Slow tortoise here...and DoL future
Still alive, just been dead. Been poking at various projects, but the biggest killer has been schedule flipflopping at work and resultant depression. Got a new car a few months ago (2022 new, not used or like-new) and trying to work out a schedule where I can pay it off but still get my stuff done. In a college town where everything is customer service and food service...not a lot of options in that regard. I did take some time to go back and re-read portions of Dawn of Light and compile a few worldbuilding snippets I had forgotten about. To be honest, I've been...hesitant to continue on Dawn of Light, not because I've run out of ideas for it or gotten stuck... I'm running into that inevitability of "where to from here?" This fanfiction has been a massive part of my life, but it has to end eventually. I don't know how many chapters it'll take to wrap it up, could be twenty, could be... an entire Part 5 o.e idfk. But the idea of bringing it to a close after all this time has been
just a smol update.
Not dead. Just distracted. a lot. Got a Switch, Smash Ultimate, been trying to get back into Warframe before the New War update, switched job locations and adjusting to the workflow there...plus new meds that have the unfortunate side effect of "unusual fatigue", so when I'm not working, I'm in a mental haze. Yeah...lovely. -_- Still working on Spyro! It's just...an awkward chapter to get out of my head and into text. Been working on later chapters while piecing it together. I've had to rewrite the next chapter several times because it just doesn't feel right to me. x-x once that hurdle is overcome though, the next few chapters are looking more solid.
Thinking of taking down Verdant Tale for now.
The story is being slightly rewritten again, so I don't think I'll keep the older version up here anymore.
Initially, I was trying to have the writing style be a sort of glimpse into Penny's mind, a way of seeing how she prioritizes her surroundings and processes information. This included deliberate lack of information on her surroundings, and a focus on things she's interested in, with more information being filled in later as she grows out of her shell and gets over her tunnel vision.
Unfortunately, test readers got lost with the lack of info, so my approach wasn't sound. There are also elements in the uploaded version that kind of just
