i saw a post speculating that only ppl who write fic work on multiple projects at once bc the op couldn't understand how anyone doing original fic could handle the level of worldbuilding involved in managing multiple WIPs & its so strange like ... plenty of us have always rotated thru multiple things, it's giving the same energy as people who can't fathom reading more than one fiction book for pleasure at once. 'how could you possibly keep track of multiple universes at once?' the v same way many people manage to keep up w more than one video game or TV show 😭

I forgot to bitch about this earlier but I was on Ao3 and I saw a tag that said "Ai generated text" and I'm just

What the fuck are we doing here dude

Do you like Dead Like Me? Do you like Dirk Gently? You wanna read the first chapter of a maybe fic I'm gonna write more of where Todd has died and become a reaper and it leads to him meeting Dirk who suspiciously won't die even though he keeps ending up on those post-its? Featuring a fun Tina and Todd friendship?

Yes? Great?

Check it out!

For Whom the Bell(Hop) Tolls

Ao3 link

Summary:

Todd Brotzman died. It sucked, but also his life kinda sucked. Made sense that dead end jobs led to his literal... dead end.

What he wasn't expecting was the job offer after he died. He gets to stick around and all he's got to do is snatch up some souls? It's not the best job, doesn't pay anything, but he'd do anything to be able to keep an eye on his sister, especially now that her brother had died and left her basically alone.

And the reaping isn't so bad. It's steady and consistent. At least until one of his marks proves especially difficult to pin down.

Why the fuck won't this S. Cjelli guy die?

For a couple of years there my ability to write was entirely unencumbered by concerns such as Properly Executing A Vision. I had an idea and I simply wrote that idea down from start to finish. Now I have an idea and I have no idea how to execute it. I feel like I’m 19 again trying to figure out what it is about xyz piece of writing that does it for me and banging my head against a wall because I don’t have the ability to move what is inside of me out.

Day 3 of being stuck inside because everything is frozen outside:

Work is closed today because no one can get to the office, including myself even though I live the closest. Even just trying to get down the steps leading from my porch is a death sentence.

Anyway, I'm hoping to use the extra day to finally get some stuff done around the house. Maybe even draw or write something if my energy keeps up. Fingers crossed for me 🤞

Have the first concept doodles for FRL and their sibling name TBD (which is a valid Iterator name by itself...) Posted just because I'm sad I don't have anything else to post.

I've been thinking about my dude a lot for a while, but I just don't know how to really... Start. I get stuck on little details and I'm unsure how to actually make a hook for introducing the character. The only things I can ever think about are the background and concepts in an ephemeral fashion; committing to a start for a project is hard OTL
