Just a heads-up that my laptop's motherboard is on its very last legs, and so I might not be online reliably over the next couple of weeks until my new machine gets here. I'm still hoping to keep up with folks, but if there's a bigger lag than usual, this (and my unwillingness/inability to do internet things on my phone) is why.

Two Fandom Things

Because I missed* most of the fall and year-end gift exchanges, I signed up for [community profile] fandomtrees for the first time ever. For those who are interested, my tree is here.

(*I was in Japan, thus missing both fall deadlines and nominations-and-signups for year-end exchanges. I keep meaning to post about Japan, but my first attempt got eaten, and I haven't had the wherewithal to make a second attempt yet.)

However! Much to my pleasure, I was able to pick up some pinch-hits for [community profile] ficinabox when I got back! I've got multiple things in that collection, if anyone wants to root around and have a look for them.

An anon on tumblr asked me about my writing habits, and since half of my writing community is over here, I thought I'd cross-post the question and answer, in case it's interesting to anyone else.

would you be willing to elaborate on your writing routine? you seem like a very consistent writer, and as someone who's not, i'm always curious how people approach their writing. do you set aside a particular amount of time/word goal/just go with the flow? do you have a single piece that you'll work on or does it jump around? do you have a way to push through writer's block or do you take a break? feel free to say as much or as little as you want ofc, but i've just been curious after seeing the few things you've said on here about it, and i'm trying to get better about my own writing routine 😅

Hello, friends! It's about to be December again, and you know what that means: the fact I am posting this actually before December 1 means [staff profile] karzilla reminded me about the existence of linear time again. Wait, no -- well, yes, but also -- okay, look, let me back up and start again: it's almost December, and that means it's time for our annual December holiday points bonus.

The standard explanation: For the entire month of December, all orders made in the Shop of points and paid time, either for you or as a gift for a friend, will have 10% of your completed cart total sent to you in points when you finish the transaction. For instance, if you buy an order of 12 months of paid time for $35 (350 points), you'll get 35 points when the order is complete, to use on a future purchase.

The fine print and much more behind this cut! )

Thank you, in short, for being the best possible users any social media site could possibly ever hope for. I'm probably in danger of crossing the Sappiness Line if I haven't already, but you all make everything worth it.

On behalf of Mark, Jen, Robby, and our team of awesome volunteers, and to each and every one of you, whether you've been with us on this wild ride since the beginning or just signed up last week, I'm wishing you all a very happy set of end-of-year holidays, whichever ones you celebrate, and hoping for all of you that your 2026 is full of kindness, determination, empathy, and a hell of a lot more luck than we've all had lately. Let's go.
