    Maybe you just haven't found the right project yet. I began this year dead-set on finishing at least the research and worldbuilding for the Spokaneverse by the end of December. November rolls around, I've done some research and even written a little, but it stalls every time I try to write more. 

    And then Quiver convinces me I need to write about cowboy wizards, the worldbuilding comes together in two weeks, and I'm already 2,000 words in. I just needed to find the right project, the one that I was ready to write and that was ready for me to write it. 

    Maybe that's it. Maybe all you need to do is find the right project. It's out there. :) And don't feel bad that you didn't get it done this year. 2016 was a raging dumpster fire for everyone and the sooner we forget about it the better. 

     

    Thanks--that does actually help a lot. :) I'll just let my mind wander a bit and see if I can't find something I can throw myself into again.

  2. Anyone else get this depressed feeling at the end of the year... feeling like they haven't accomplished everything they wanted to? I mean, I'm not a person of lofty goals, but still. I've wasted time and abandoned projects and... and overall just not achieved what meager goals I set myself.

    Write and publish a short fanfiction.

    Finish a personal database on all the worldbuilding I've done in my head.

    Overall just create something I can be proud of. Something I can point to, smile, and say "I made this."

    ...

     

    I guess that was vague and unspecific. Just saying, I feel generally depressed at the moment. :/

  3. Holy heck, Quicksilver's been rampaging for the better part of a year now. The City Guard's really gonna have a pay cut after this.

    ...and by City Guard I mean me.

     

    Does anyone remember any plans in particular where this fight is concerned? If not I'm just gonna write Deathwish going in guns blazing.

    Meanwhile, at Hogwarts...

     

    "Severus... you still cut the crusts off your grilled cheeses, after all this time?"

    "...always."

  5. My father was explaining to me the riot situation in real-life Portland right now.

    HIM: "You see, Portland's on a peninsula that has to be accessed from several bridges-"

    ME: "Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah. I know all this. Though I didn't think you could plausibly hold those bridges without zombie dinosaurs, personally."

    Twi is Spongebob. The suddenly appearing rainbow is her burgeoning sexual identity. 

    ...uh, surprise? :P 

     

    In lieu of questioning sexual orientation, I'm going to stick to what's really important:

    Does that mean I get to be Plankton constantly hatching crazy schemes to steal back my reputation level?

    The truth, she is in this post. -_-

    Maybe because we're going to enact every step of an entire evil plan at 2 PM? We're going to need a lot of energy to destroy houses of worship while taking over the Internet and destroying marriages. :ph34r: 

     

    Y'know, I've been lurking for a while and considered myself pretty up to date with everything that was happening on the Shard despite my lack of posting, but I think that simple use of first person plural is the first thing that's made me take a small step back and say. "Huh. Okay. Maybe I missed something and should ask about it." :mellow::P

    @bleeder Breaking news: Trump just said in a live interview that he will not oppose marriage equality.

     

    "An unknown benefactor of the LGBT community appears to have informed him that Martian nuclear weapons on the Moon were a more pressing problem deserving of his concern, diverting the President-elect's attention from the subject for the time being."

    In other news, "Future Senator" Wilk won the election. :( 

    ...I was really hoping that I would get to call him "Currently Unemployed" Wilk. :P 

    edit: Oh, and @Kobold King, can you please regale us with the more complete tale of your scientific roasting of the fallacious congressman? It promises to be excellent, I think.:ph34r:

     

    I dunno... at the moment I describe what specifically happened I cease to sound politically neutral. As it is now, everyone can hear me say this and imagine their least favorite politician getting red in the face over whatever issue they like. The moment I specify who it was or what they were arguing I run the risk of ruining it for someone who actually agrees with this politician. :ph34r:

    Ladies and gentlemen, we are no longer reading posts from Kobold King. 

    What we have witnessed is the birth of a superhero. The Marvelous Meme Man. Fearlessly facing down fallacious facts with memes. 

    Cherish this moment, for it comes but once in a lifetime.
