The usual cumulative post about my writing & other random things.

First of all, while I haven't finished the full revision, I'm starting posting my Annie Leonhart-centric fanfic this week. The first chapter is ready, I polished what I could polish, the beta-reading happened... I need to let go of it.

I even posted a snipped from it. (Contains spoilers for the ending of Attack on Titan, I guess.)

Now I'm feeling all so giddy about it, because overall I'm really excited about this story--and I'm excited because it contains things that extremely fun to me; I think about it and I smile to myself, and even chuckle, and everything. Having being able to finish writing the story, even in its half-revised state: this is such a great accomplishment.

As usual, this is the most important thing to remember.

( Ranting and some spoilers )

Speaking of other things, now.

Media

• I'm so very excited for the last episode of Attack on Titan airing on November 4th. If you never started watching it because it wasn't finished, at least now I can say: heh, you have about 2 months to catch up with it--88 episodes? Do it. It's going to be fun.

• Wary but still curious about the new AoT project that will be announced on October 4th. Although... it may just be a re-edition, a silly mobile game, or a spin-off nobody will care about, so... no expectations.

• I've fallen behind with Link Click, My Happy Marriage and Undead Murder Farce lately, mainly because I was traveling. I'm glad I have a lot to catch up with.

• I dreamt the episodes leading to the ending of Monster by Naoki Urusawa... when I haven't watched them yet. Yes, I invented it. It looks like I need to go back to it as well.

• Oh, Dead souls by Gogol was really the perfect (audio)read for this summer. Familiar, yet refreshing, and so, so funny.

Other things

After many years mostly traveling only to go to games, and spending the summer holidays resting at home, I finally made a long-distance and a long-awaited long trip this year, and in a context I never considered feasible for me (group tour with people I never met before).

A few takeaways:

Crafts

Finally, Games

I can't say I'm unhappy at the moment. I guess this is good, heh?

I hope you're having a good time as well.

Thanks for reading, and to the next one.

I had a rather busy week at the beginning of February, but I’m glad I can now sit down for some updates.

( Costumes, LARPing )

Lots of very interesting conversations around stories on the road trip to the game, in fact. Two interesting points: ( Conversations about stories )

Having said this, some updates on my writing: ( I'm still writing! )

In other stories: ( Stories I've been reading, watching, planning on experiencing etc. )

In the next few days I hope to catch up with comments & posts. In the meantime, thanks for reading.
