forever is the sweetest con

  

( 29 multifandom icons + 10 alts )

quick fly by post to ask a favor! (it won't take long, promise!)

all of the icons i'm making look normal in the program i use but really blurry and low quality on image hosting sites/on dw and i cannot figure out why! trying to rule out some things so if you don't mind, can you tell me whether the icon linked HERE looks like, in terms of quality/definition/blurriness/etc., more like screenshot one or screenshot two?

( nsfw-ish(?) in the sense that the crop is a woman's bra )

a very (VERY!) small batch of 2022 icons! 

  

as you may have deduced from the 5 drabbles i just posted, i'm writing again! those drabbles only have a total word count of 1k all together but god, after over two years of writing almost nothing, it feels so good just to be writing again! when i typed 1107 into the monthly checkin count for getyourwordsout, i wasn't ashamed or disappointed in myself, i was ecstatic. it's been so long since i've written something that over 1,000 words felt monumental. and it still does! 

around thanksgiving a longtime friend of mine asked for my help with her first ever fic and i think the experience of helping and editing that is to thank for reigniting my passion. i remember telling her afterward that i truly loved doing it and that it made me miss writing but despite being motivated, i still wasn't inspired to write.

i haven't signed up for an exchange or fest in god knows how long because i just haven't been able to commit these past few years but i scour each and every one of them for potential treating opportunities. i think the last treat i wrote was in...2021? for multifandomdrabble? but the friday before last i saw a request for the cabots series by cat sebastian and maybe it was because i had just read peter cabot (one of my favorite books of all time and my favorite of the series) on new year's eve and immediately wanted to reread it 3 separate times in the span of less than a month (i didn't. but i wanted to.) but next thing i knew i had written a 300 word drabble. and then within 3 days i had written four more drabbles in four other fandoms! 

i was worried about how they would be received, even moreso than usual, because it had been so long since i had written anything. i thought they were good, which is a rarity in itself, but i also thought that maybe i didn't know what good looked like anymore. luckily, i was very pleasantly surprised and have gotten lovely feedback on all of them! i was expecting each of them to get one comment each from and said comment to be from the giftee but i've been really fortunate that all but one of have gotten multiple comments from other people as well! 

i've been trying to keep a list of "glimmers" (one for each day) because the depression™ (and the anxiety and the ocd and the adhd and the chronic illness and the disability, etc., etc.) is rough and just the combination of writing again and the lovely feedback has me feeling elated enough to be weeks worth of glimmers. 

oh, and i also wrote two three sentence fics! a gen ted lasso one and one for a league of their own (i will never get over the fact that tom hanks and geena davis did not fuck in that movie. let the people fuck!).

how is everyone else's writing going?
