Mini update
I had a fun weekend but it involved a lot of running around, and now I am sick. Not super-sick, but low energy, achy throat, and I totally thrashed my voice. Now I have to decide whether to keep a lunch engagement on Wednesday. It involves a friend I haven't seen in ages, so I hate to cancel, but I might not have much choice. Guess I'll sit on it for a day.
What else... I finished my DABB draft, for certain values of "finished", with a day to spare. There's a lot of work left to do, but it's in pretty good shape, and I have at least a month to work on it, so I'm not too worried. In the meantime, I started something for the Chocobo Races (yes, really), and I have ideas for my
dragonageholidaycheer gift. Given the due dates, I should probably work on the latter first, but it's the former that's claiming my attention at the moment.
In the rest of life, still no job leads yet, but that's okay with the holidays coming up. We leave for T's mom's place a week from today, and we'll be there most of the following week.
And that's it for me right now. How are you?

Most of my paperwork done. Just one more annoying item left on my plate for once my coffee break is over.
Your BB story: Wow. 50k? That's a lot to whip into shape very quickly. I feared the same problem in the middle of november, pulled out as a writer, and then, at the very last minute, I switch over to contribute as an artist. I think it is sort of amusing that I'm known in fandom exclusively as a writer (fic+meta) because I used to be one of those paint splattered art school kids (until art became a minor and my uni degree went all mathematical) and I work as a designer, yet I backed into writing fiction rather randomly after writing a few scripts. Go figure?!
The bad thing about having both a writerly focus and the desire to do visual art is that each activity takes time to do well and I often barely have the time to do one, much less both.
