So, right after I finished revealing the winner for the story raffle from 4 months ago (for ) Things happened irl.

my health condition flared up and left me incredibly unwell for a while, so that already was not a good start at all. I felt awful.

and then mental health problems arose, problems that led me unmotivated to do much. I didn't have fun playing games, I didn't have fun writing either, and I didn't have fun just continuing to sit at home in pain like I always do, just now in even more pain. DIsabilties suck, both mental and physical, I hate them.

Why am I writing this? Well, I finally started feeling ready, so I went ahead and finished the "short story" I say short, but I got a bit too carried away and ended up writing over 4000 words for it. I guess that's what happens when you have fun writing something that you enjoy, eh? >w>

It'll be uploaded here very soon, Listria told me they really liked it and gave me the go ahead to start posting it. So I will.

Also for a bonus surprise, there'll be a second story being uploaded here once the mystery person gives me the go ahead as well. Yeah, turns out they liked my writing for a bit so pretty come impromptu commissioned me to write for them, and they actually gave me a decent amount of money for it too, which was great.

I'm wondering if I should maybe try a story commission sometime soon, see if anyone would be interested in that at all. Considering how poor I am right now (and is why i've hardly been getting any comms, bar gifts, which SPEAKING OF I do have a rather large backlog I need to get to...)

Anyways, yeah, enjoy the story, it'll be uploaded shortly.

Oh, perhaps I should move my old stories out of scraps. I put them there because I considered them that, just scraps that I wrote for fun in the past. But people genuinely do seem to like them, even if they are probably kind of... novice and what I consider not that great. Probably should get to that, too.

Edit: It's up :)
