A possible new age for me? (Update)
3 years ago
It’s been a long time since I made a journal post. Most likely due to the fact that I feel they don’t do much. A lot needs to be reported though. Soon I will be another year older and it will be crossing a threshold, it’s just a shame I haven’t accomplished much in that time span.
First off, I still have some YCH slots open, I was hoping these will get filled soon as it is rather demoralizing to come up with these cute ideas to raise money for charity only for them to collect dust. This isn’t trying to guilt you into buying them however. If you don’t want, or can’t get a slot, then don’t trouble yourself with it. That said, do you think it’s worth it to keep making them? I do enjoy coming up with them, even if they are usually forgotten.
For those looking forward to the development of my silly babyfur Visual Novel “Dress Code”, you may be saddened to hear it has been postponed for now. A Major Character meant to appear in the novel belongs to a friend who may not be interested in having his OC in the project anymore, so I am awaiting confirmation from them before I go any further.
I still have foolish aspirations to be a game developer. I finally settled on an idea for a game that, while a little ambitious, isn’t as so as an open-world sandbox or turn-based RPG. In addition, I’ve been focusing on Blender 3D modeling. I’ve successfully created a humanoid model and bone rigged it, now I simply need to fine tune it and learn how to model clothing and animating. Unfortunately, I still have PTSD from my last attempt at coding in Unity, so I haven’t touched it since. Hopefully I’ll have slightly better luck since a 3rd person shooter is slightly less intense than a Turn-Based RPG. Hopefully Unity’s forums will be more helpful, since the last time I asked for assistance, some fathead just told me to learn coding, not even offering an example.
Then there are my main cast of diaper-clad OCs. While I’ve been satisfied with the likes of Leon, Parker and Nixie, all the others (Velyo, Mirin, Lucien, Paden, etc) I’ve been struggling to develop stories for. Whenever I do try to make stories for these characters, I get a sickly feeling in my gut, which prevents me from being satisfied with whatever I write for them. Does anyone else get that feeling?
I’m also not sure about the mainline universe where all my characters exist. In the mainline universe, it’s just a bunch of diaper clad babies chilling peacefully. Would it work better if I developed a different universe where there was more action or such, such as in my Visual Novel universe?
Finally, my novel is still badly neglected. I was pushing myself to write a page a day for a while, but gave up on it when I felt this was affecting the quality of the story. Will my second book ever see the light of day? It has me questioning what I should do to leave a mark on the world.
Either way, I am happy to have made so many friends during the time since my graduation. If only we could hang out in real life and go to an arcade or something. I could try going out and making some friends in town, but it just isn’t the same as someone you know has the same interests you are embarrassed about, as you feel you can truly trust them.

You main universe sounds fine to me, as for other universes, go for it! Try imagining it as your characters in the main universe having a dream or playing pretend or something like that. Then it feels like your characters have a fun little role or game to play. That’s how I treat any of my stories that I consider “non-canon”
Action, fantasy, sci-fi, whatever you decide, as long as you have fun with it, that’s all that matters ^_^
And I understand not able to work on novels, I am still working on a few of mine, but I also have a Job too, and I get real busy with it at times.
