#current projects

I have three fabrics I am going to make pants out of, and all three are some variety of bright pink, so I am just going to use the same thread on all three and sew them all at the same time, doing each step 3 times in a row so that I FINALLY have more than 2 pairs of pants I can wear outside the house!!!

Here is one of the other fabrics, which my best friend bought for me because it was deadstock (ie not going to come back in stock) and there was only 18 yards left and I needed at least 2.5 yards for a pair of pants. Thank you to the bestie for that!!! It's gonna be glorious!!! This one is a cotton/rayon blend and I was nervous about the rayon but I don't hate touching it as much as I expected to. I don't think I would like touching pure rayon fabric though.

And the last is a plain hot pink linen, actually the same linen as the last pair of hot pink pants, because I was *going* to buy the "best quality for the midrange price tag" linen that Bernadette Banner complimented in that one finding historical quality linen video that two separate people sent me (because I am insane about how we literally don't make fabric how we used to anymore because we don't even grow the same fibers!!!! I am insane about it!!!) But shipping from Ireland was gonna be just as much as the fabric and then there was tarrifs to consider so instead I just got the same linen as before because it held up okay for being my only pair of pants for a year and then one of only two pairs of pants for the year after that. Plus I am reinforcing the waistband which was the point of failure last time so hopefully this time they last a little longer.

Anyway. That's my next sewing project. And then I gotta get back to doing geometry for project boobmageddon. Which I CAN do because geometry may not be my strong suit but I CAN GET BETTER AT IT and this project will HELP with that!!!

For writing I’m thinking of throwing my hat back in the ring for the shakarian mini bang. I had this story I’ve always wanted to write for years. Actually for a previous big bang but dropped out. As it’s long.

Last year when I wrote Consumed Memories I kind of had no life outside of writing for month and that fic was close to like 25K I think? So Idk if I can pull that off again.

As for art I kind want to do like a screenshot/cinematic challenge. I’ll probably replay mass effect or ask people for some cool/cinematic screenshots that they have.

I’ll probably do Olivia drawing for Shepard’s Bday too :)

It was time for a new project table update. So here we are

The writing gig

The "I will probably write this till I die" epic

5 FACTS ON MY CURRENT WORKING PROJECTS I know I did one of these recently (found here) but I have since changed some of the projects I'm currently working on and wanted to give you all some more facts about them. As it stands, right now I have two revising and rewriting projects, one revision project, and one project in edits. I'll break down the facts based on those! So let's jump into it! REVISING & REWRITING FACT #1: PENNEY WILL BREAK THE RULES TO SAVE DANE The first revising and rewriting project is a YA paranormal/romance, the first in a trilogy with a little bit of mystery thrown in there. Penney is 17 and a psychic. She has the choice ahead of her to go the normal route and be a regular human, albeit with psychic abilities, or to join the Academy and train and work for them in all things psychic. Penney is clear she wants to go the normal route. She wants to be a teacher like her mama. The rules are also clear that you can never interfere with a vision or the future. So when Penney has a vision from nowhere showing her that her best friend, and long time crush, Dane is going to die in a few weeks, Penney throws all the rules out of the window. Screw what the universe wants, she will do whatever it takes to save Dane's life, even if that means pushing him into the arms of someone else. FACT #2: ABBY AND HER FRIENDS WILL STOP THE WITCH HUNT, WHATEVER THE COST The second revising and rewriting project is a YA urban fantasy, and again the first in a trilogy. Abby is 15, a witch, and also battling unknown chronic illness(es). She's on the path to getting a diagnosis when the pandemic struck and the world went into lockdown. Dealing with worrying symptoms, she's forced to hide inside, and then a witch hunt happens out of nowhere, and Abby and her friends know the first witch taken. They will do whatever they can to save any witches from being harmed, even at the cost of their own safety. REVISING FACT #3: ZYA ISN'T SURE ABOUT THE HUB, BUT SHE'LL KEEP HER FRIENDS SAFE The revising project is the third in the Invisible quartet, Visible. This is a YA dystopian series that deals with death, a virus, disability, adaption, resilience, and finding a way to stay alive. Zya and her friends were forced to leave their segment, and she's gotten them to what she thought might be safety, only she's not sure if that's actually the case, or if they've just ended up in mortal peril. She needs answers and she'll do whatever it takes to get them, even at the risk of her own life. FACT #4: THE HITS KEEP COMING FOR JONAH, AND HE DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO SURVIVE Jonah took a lot of stress in the second book, and with their journey to the hub ending the way it did, Jonah isn't sure that he's able to survive what's happened, and what's coming. He thinks he has a chance if nothing else goes wrong, but that's the problem, everything is going wrong, and he won't be the weak link in the chain getting his friends killed. EDITING FACT #5: JESSIE HAS NO IDEA WHAT TO DO The editing project is the fourth in the Cramping Chronicles series, which is YA urban fantasy all about Jessie, who's 15, chronically ill and disabled, and also an empath. She can literally feel certain people's physical and emotional pain. With the way things ended in the third book, Jessie is left adrift and struggling to find a way to keep going. She has no choice but to face the danger ahead of her, and hope she comes out the other side, the alternative doesn't bear thinking about. So there we go, those are five facts about my current working projects! Any questions? Lemme know in the comments!
