Hey guys -- I've made a thing!
It's a podcast/audio drama called Soul Jar, following a teenage necromancer.
It would be AMAZING if you would listen.

I worked really hard on this and I'm equal parts proud and sick.
@wespacker hello! @WelshPixie says you're cool and that's good enough for me. :) Welcome to the fediverse!
DMing went really well! Started out with a zombie combat in which our druid's horse was MVP, then our rogue bundled a "carpentry" job on the black market, and our goblin bard accidentally revealed his true nature to the halfling innkeeper but deftly salvaged the situation with singing, magic, and lies. Felt really natural and it was fun to go back to a world and story I worked so hard on. :)
Ack eek oh no. Today is the day I pick up DMing a campaign that's been on pause since January. I am so incredibly nervous!
One of the sites I worked on is up for public enjoyment! I'd love it if you could look at and leave a rating on the BBC Zombies app, a visual novel-style eLearning course promoting diversity as you try to survive the zombie apocalypse.

I'm DMing again for the first time in 4 months this weekend, continuing a very strange and wonderful campaign which so far has involved a goblin bard, a cleric with far too many deities, a semi-feral pet Dire Rat, killing a demi-god of swarming pests, and killing and then resurrecting a necromancer (the first out of greed, the second out of friendship).
I'm really nervous about picking it up again -- a lot of threads to continue and DMing has always been a lot of work! But I'm also excited.

My first try at painting was this. I tried on not being so rigid on painting like keeping it neat and nicely blended. I still like this! 
Did a request from my patreon to draw my favorite fictional character in a environment that is totally out of their element. So here's Hannibal Lecter in a sickeningly cute diner with veggie junk food and the servers are fantasy creatures? Yep, my brain fried but I like how it turned out and this is the most pastel thing I've ever colored ♥

There is a fan in this room that sporadically makes a sound THE EXACT IMITATION of the bone creak of skeletons you hear so often in video games.
I adore it.
Do you ever wish you could bring your cat with you outside the home?
Because I wish that literally every time I walk through my front door.
Braved a walk to the park today for an ice cream lunch break with friends. I had one scoop of honeycomb and one scoop of mint choc chip, which the server remarked was weird (but in a nice way).
Also saw a writing group friend's mum at the till and she remembered me, which was lovely.
Don't quote me on this but sometimes ... leaving the house is good.
It's National Writing Day today in the UK! Mastodon's #Fediverse has so many talented writers in it. I've really enjoyed reading your work and looking forward to seeing more of it.
I hope you all have a great day and get lots of writing done. I'd love to hear what you're working on today! I'll be digging into the big rewrite of my post-apocalypse story where a soft Yorkshire lad and a snappily-dressed demon fall in love in a world falling apart.
Grateful for friends who allow me to take refuge in their air conditioned house during heat waves.
It's so kind of people to open up their space. I know what a big deal it can be!
I can sleep anywhere at any time except in my bed at night
My CP very nervously gave me critique that she obviously felt the need to apologise for and justify as she was worried it was too harsh.
I now get to send her a message to say how perfect it was and how it's exactly the kind of thing I need help with. I'm so glad she brought it up!
Appreciate your critique partners, giving critique is always scary!

We've juuuuust got enough for a second hand generator there, but if you've got some spare change and would like a fancy kraken postcard or some stickers, it would help us out a lot!
I have had 25 listens to Soul Jar and people have been really nice about it, no pitchforks or pity, and it's just been a really lovely experience.
Thanks so much to everyone who boosted or went to listen, I really really appreciate it. :)
