Enjoy a Sailorlock cover inspired by @holmesianpose​‘s story Over Fathoms Deep (which is amazing and has been living rent free in my head for a month now).

Inspired by holmesianpose’s “Over Fathoms Deep” ch. 10. https://archiveofourown.org/works/1744148/chapters/3724331

Sailor!John in his wet linen breeches. This is one of the first paintings we 3 raccoons started when we first got the ipad, but at the time we were still not used to digitally painting, so this project went to the back burner. But now here it is!

And if you have never read OFD, you need to go do that. Right meow.

Hello dear OFD reader!

Thanks for reaching out about this. I am bummed that 8tracks is gone. Sadly, I don't have another public playlist available with this music but what I *can* do for you is share the tracklists, that way hopefully you can create your own version of the playlist on whatever music software you use. I actually made three playlists in total (and am still sitting on a gargantuan fourth playlist that needs to be edited one day and posted), so here are the playlists for the three OFD mixes:

Guys guys guys guys guys

I have a three day weekend and I am spending AS MUCH OF IT AS POSSIBLE working on Chapter 62 of OFD...

I am getting so close to finishing. I realize I've been saying this for months, but I'm seriously closer than ever. If only I can stop myself from adding more scenes/details and just post it, I should be able to post it before the end of the weekend.........

Hi!! So good to hear from you! <3

And yes it has been a minute, hasn't it? 😅😅😔

The good news: Yes! I am absolutely still writing Over Fathoms Deep!

The bad news: I made a decision to prioritize other writing projects this past year (including trying to finish the first draft of my first original novel!) which means that I have not *actively* worked on it in several months. I actually took a whole year off from teaching last year in order to entirely focus on writing my novel (and also do some academic writing/projects) and I was optimistic that I would also be able to continue writing OFD at the same time. Unfortunately, I didn't manage it. And now since September I am back to teaching again and having a full time job, which means less time for any fun/creative writing, fic or otherwise. I've also had a big article deadline due this month which has taken up all of my extra time outside of work this fall, so I've done NO fun writing since September (😫 my soul is starting to wither as a result...)

More good news: I miss OFD!!!! So I'm going to make it a priority to get a new chapter up as soon as I get some free time later this month. I'm almost done with this academic article I need to finish, and the term is about to end, so once I get through grading, I will have almost a month off for Christmas, which means TIME TO WRITE AGAIN. Also, me and @truthisademurelady have planned a writing retreat in a couple weeks, where we will do nothing but write in a cozy cabin in the forest by a river for THREE WHOLE DAYS and I am planning to dedicate that time to OFD.

So, a lot of words to say: I am hoping to get a new chapter together very soon! ("Very soon" meaning in my language in the next couple months...)
