Yeah so I sure havent been here in a while. Sorry for that. Not like I have been good about internet in general. 

My use on subeta and Ao3 are the most constant, but even then I am just dur about actually posting things. I just read a lot of fanfiction. I havent even worked on my huge pile of fics recently. But that brought me to think, why not at least contribute to others fiction?

I have wanted to beta for ages and just never bothered really looking farther than fics I read, and most have ended up finding someone before I came along. So hopefully my asking folks to come to me might do the trick?

Ive only ever betad on google docs before, but know there are likely other options out there. So if you have a preferred platform let me know! (I dont use discord or skype though, plus idfk how youd do doc edit on there anyway. I do use telegram though if you like to chat outside of the edit.)

Now its just down to the nitty gritty at some point. Ill edit this with the list of fandoms and slash I want to take a whack at and all that important jazz. So feel free to pm or just comment this post. (I will only give out the email I use for rp/beta in pm, but tend to reply faster than on here. So let me know if you want to chat that way!)

For now I feel like its pretty obvious some of the pairs I am in to if you look at my Ao3 bookmarks/etc. Hopefully that is a good enough starting point :)

 Jeez its been a busy few months.

Starting with worries of having to move up a state after just signing a two year lease in oregon. Then being asked to help catering at Red Dress 2016 here in portland (which was a fucking blast btw). To doing so good at such a fast paced bit of work there that Mom and I were asked to lead the food area next year/join the committee. Of course taking the time after it to heal my major blisters that were horrid but worth every bit of pain.

Though I thought I was finally back to a point of doing nothing but play around with art and the internet Mom did get the new amazing job and had to find a place in Ballard for when she went up weekly, which was a hard thing for me to get used to. I think it has been good for my separation anxiety, I feel like I can finally handle being alone, so yay there. Once settled in she invited me to come stay and it was a bunch of fun, I swear Ballard has the best goodwill in the freaking world, and spent hours in a goodwill just buying so much wonderousness. (Including crazy cool japanese rocking horse shoes that actually fit me and didnt cost an arm and a leg) 

Then to top it off I dragged Mom down in to the dark depths of Nightvale addiction, to a point where she has tickets for us to see it in July. I am so stoked.

So tired though. I havent had this much change, albeit good, come in a long while. Well at least change that wasnt just moving to a new rental every year or two. I have no idea where we will end up, but for now its nice to know her boss up in Washington is totally cool with her being there part time until we are out of contract here. As hard as it is to move a city over so often, I dont think I could drag my sorry ass and silly belongings/rat menagerie/crap I literally just got done unpacking after two months of living in a house I really love.

Oh and cant forget how my darn friend pulled me back in to Gaia somehow after I swore it wasnt possible. I guess even as much as I adore subeta I needed a few weeks off of leading so many threads. But its nice to be back to it, Though I more blame a user run rp puzzle event I take part in yearly for grabbing me.

I should probably go and work on that instead of reading more TMfU fanfiction.

Crap...and procrastinating on this adopt commission I started ages ago and still need to finish. I always say I wont take coms as I know Ill never finish, but couldnt help it, and now I am back to keeping this dude waiting. Awyeah priorities.

Yup, Yup. At least I finally forced myself to catch up here and read some friends journals. So at least I got something done! Oh and I figured out macrame. So two somethings! 

Hope you all have been doing well and are enjoying the heat as much as I am not 8D I swear its not even july it should not be in the 90s in Oregon. What even is happening to my nice cool spring weather -cries-

Im glad I stumbled upon the [community profile] pbam, it was super fun to watch all of the ideas come in and then the fics.
Especially fun was that I had a prompt of mine filled. As I have never done such prompting it was my first time to have such funzies. Im sure now I will be finding much inspiration from unfilled sorts there and in alllll the kink memes. 

Because of the porn battle I also wrote a quick fic, crazy for me as most of my fiction has never been posted for eyes other than friends or even completed. I even have a loverly [personal profile] mincy who is going to beta it for me when she has time, though I have already posted to Ao3 so not to miss the deadline for the prompt fill.

It feels pretty cool to have it read by others, and commented on. Hopefully the joy I get from making other fans happy with a dumb pwp fic will get my butt in gear. 

So for now Im going to see what I can actually get done and posted, but my next goal is figuring how to write short stories. For the pbam most seemed to be under 2k and mine was 6k+ (and I thought that was short derp). Endings are hard as well. But I guess most people face these things, even in just posting derp journals like this one.

Lets see how long it takes for me to upload more -flops- For now I am going to keep binging on Orphan Black and wondering why I had not watced it until now. Holy balls its addicting.

So, I pretty much suck at internet. Like I have tumblr and am never on it, I made an LJ years and years ago but that didn't last. Pretty much all I do is sit around and look for info relating to my fanfiction and playing on subeta. Im hopeful this will go better than my usual endeavors.

I dont expect that I will post that many personal things, it could happen but fandom is far more likely. Especially stuff about my Ao3 and prompt fills.

Really making this is my way to push myself to finally post some of the bajillion fics Ive written for years and hopefully find a beta reader that can put up with my ever changing fandoms and ocd. The latter is probably my biggest reason for only having shared fics with best friends. I re read and edit and re read and edit and it never ends. So I need to just give in and say 'well it aint perfect but here we go'.

Hopefully being in a place with kinkmeme communities that isnt tumblr (as that is the site Im worst with) will motivate my brain and help me write things shorter than 10k word count. Short and sweet ya' know?
