The Ever Wise And Gracious Station Masters

Dnd Update! Again!

I have been abandoned, I live alone in the woods now, there’s no one but me, a sandwich, and the murderous farmer that my character couldn’t tell was actually just a regular scare crow.

Fun fact!

If someone asks you “How many bodies do you think you could bury there?” you should not start counting.

You also shouldn’t follow up by giving an exact number.

If you, somehow, were able to do both of those, you shouldn’t end with “Of course, you’d be able to fit more if you dismembered them, tell-tale heart style.”

Got another campaign update!

The drug addicted tabaxi and mushroom obsessed wizard are now trying to hide their newly formed drug empire from the “father” of the group. Also! One of the players realized that he could become his adopted daughters brother thanks to some weird gene stuff!

practical writing advice part 2

part 1

get used to carrying a notebook around with you. or get used to writing on your phone. you will not always have access to your computer, but it’s much easier to take something compact with you to quickly jot down ideas. also i have chronic illness and sometimes my bones feel like lead and going upstairs to get my laptop is a herculean task, BUT i can write on my phone lying down instead of just scrolling through my camera roll and being miserable. which brings me to my next point:

if you have to choose between writing unconventionally or even unproductively and not writing at all, choose the writing. i’ve said before not to create a habit of writing in bed, but if it comes down to writing in bed or not writing whatsoever, i’ll write in bed. i just try to stretch before and after (which you should also do!!!).

you’re not wasting time or being silly by making playlists or moodboards or memes of your characters and environments. having fun with your stories outside of writing them is a good way to stay motivated.

i like to stop my writing sessions in a place where i know exactly what i want to write next, so when i pick back up i won’t be left hemming and hawing over where to begin. HOWEVER, if you’re absolutely locked in, don’t interrupt that flow state. it’ll be harder to find it again later—instead, wait until you find a natural place to stop where you haven’t run out of ideas.

“why do i have a headache 3 hours into my writing session?” because the last time you had a sip of water was 4 hours ago, you dingus! keep your drinks near your workspace while you write. and i do mean, like, a full bottle of water at least. if you’re like me, things stop existing when they leave your line of sight, so keep these beverages where you can see them and refill during bathroom breaks.

uhhh try not to think negatively about your writing while you’re doing it because when i do that i just get bummed out. “this scene is terrible” -> “oh yeah fuck it up oh yeah fuck it up” (positive reframing)

ok thanks bye

I had a fist fight with an ostrich. It did not go well. I ended up in the hospital with one arm missing, and my brother walked into my hospital room, slapped me in the face, and gave me an ostrich egg with a bow tied around it.

I was on a walk and as I passed by the local pool I heard one of the kids exclaim “Look! It’s Hedwig!” and all of the kids come over to look. I looked over right on time to see the pained face of a swimming instructor who had read all of Harry Potter. Like she looked at the owl and then back at the kids with a face that just said “oh…. You poor sweet souls…. You haven’t gotten to that part yet… oh no.”

So, does mixing potions retain the abilities and does drinking mixed potions in the same bottle count as drinking a single potion.

Saw this on Twitter. What 3 potions would you drink?

I would take brown, white, and yellow!

Water can taste thick and creamy
