Ooooo-kay....let's do some updating shall we? claps paws

First off, I am in school. Currently taking "Psychology of Human Sexuality". Learning a lot both about myself and about how I interact with others...as well as getting a better understanding of my own sexuality as well.

Secondly, I am making some big strides in terms of being "out there" more. I now have a YouTube channel, which I am planning on using for vlogs, Let's Plays, top5's/10's, reviews and other things. I also have a Twitch account as well, so I could do things like Livestream games and such (assuming I can ever figure out how to get it WORKING! >.< )

Third, in terms of my gender expression...this has been up and down. I have been wearing camisoles under my work clothes (most of which are already from the female side of the room to begin with), so that has been a good step forward.
The downside is that I have had serious emotional urges lately. Like getting a wave of overwhelming feelings breaking over you all at once. I believe that the two may be linked. Thus, it needs more study.

Fourth, I am participating in my first-ever Pokemon competition! squees happily
Sadly, day one did NOT go well...as I went 0-for-10 in battles. But, today is a new day. Maybe I can win ONE before this is all over. That would be nice. ^.^

Fifthly (is that even a word), with FurAffinity being in a state of severe chaos right now, I plan on making this home base for the foreseeable future. That means you all get stories that FA will not be and journals that FA will not be getting as well...as I am officially on hiatus from there until the chaos settles.

looks back

Okay...I think that is enough for now. If you folks have any questions or comments, feel free to ask. I don't bite and I do enjoy getting comments.

Catch you in Pokeballs in a bit! giggles

    I've been using this site as "home base" for a while now. Lately I've been going through and uploading a very old novel, and Weasyl always gets the chapter several weeks before FA. And then there are other submissions that are Weasyl-exclusives.

    One thing though is I'm not sure if my stories are seen. Then again, no one ever comments on my stories so it's not like I could know they were seen on FA either!

    It seems to be working out for the most part though. Text submissions here are much easier to read, and as long as writers don't try to link to Google Docs or upload a PDF (both of which break my browsers) it's fine from a reader perspective.

    And you are a writer; thus, fifthly is a word. We have that right, you know.

      I did have readers on FA, but here I sadly do upload in .pdf format...so I'm sorry for breaking your browsers! sadfaces

      And always good to meet/interact with another writer ^.^

        Definitely!

        Any reason in particular you favor PDF over .txt here? I've been trying to bug the Weasyl staff to, well, fix the bug, but no response has come from them just yet.

        Hopefully they do because--assuming I'm not the only one this happens to--it's hurting writers.

          I actually dislike using .pdf honestly. I would prefer to just use .doc extensions since that is what I normally type in. As for .txt...it kinda obliterates my formatting a bit, leaving even me confused as to what's going on in the story (really saying something there)

            That does make sense. I don't do formatting beyond line/section breaks and the occasional use of italics, so I never thought of having to retain anything like that.
