I think we're all feelin' the inklings of spring here. Andy is having a "bask by the window" day.

I'm in the process of putting CF on Wattpad, and I'm very happy with this cover that I more or less threw together.

I've completed the first draft of approximately the first half of chapter 3. And y'all, I'm *stoked* on it.

I know you want to give up sometimes, but wouldn't it be fun if you achieved your dreams out of pure spite?

Oh my gosh, I love this. Astarion has always struck me as seeming like he could be the love child of Louis and Lestat. He embodies both of them at the same time ๐Ÿ˜†

I've gotten VERY into Sleep Token over the past couple of months.

It's been a long time since I've discovered new music that I want to put on when shit's really tough; music that serves as a vital companion when I feel most alone. They've become one of those.

January was kind of a recovery and hibernation month, during which I did some reading and let Baldur's Gate consume my every thought.

It was much needed. I'm easing back into a regular writing schedule, and Circadian Forest's chapter 3 is already coming along nicely ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป

I would definitely like to read more of the Vampire Chronicles, but I need a break for now.

I've finally finished reading Interview With the Vampire after 1.5 years ๐Ÿซ  I did, however, get sidetracked at one point to read 11 volumes of Witch Hat Atelier.

Anyways, what a devastating series of concluding events, I loved it.

My next book is Howl's Moving Castle, I'm excited.

I made a personal account here, mostly to live-blog BG3 ramblings so that this space remains geared toward its intended purpose, more or less.
There will probably also be lots of pet photos.

Changing my work schedule every once in a while for the sake of variety, like how my husband rearranges the objects in our snake's tank every time he cleans it.

It occurs to me that I don't think I've introduced Sirius here. He's my six year old house bear.

He's getting more and more snuggly with age. Especially when it's cold out.

Karlach saying "fuck yes" has been playing intermittently in my brain for days. Fuck yes.

Playing Baldur's Gate 3 for the first time. Just got Karlach, what a badass. My husband keeps calling Astarion "Hedonism Bot" and it's sending me ๐Ÿ˜†
"Hedonism Bot over there sounds like he could use some healing."
