A Merry Christmas + An Announcement
7 years ago
General
Hi. First off, merry Christmas to those who celebrate it, a super belated Hanukkah for those who celebrate that, and a happy holidays for everyone else.
I try my hardest to get gifts for everyone I know, even if they're acquaintances. And since there's 197 of you who've kindly read and enjoyed my work, that's... a lot of presents. So I'm gonna have to give a bulk gift. Hopefully that's okay. I'm sure you can all talk it out or something.
So, once more, I've kinda disappeared from here. That's... maybe only a quarter my fault. For my past two computers have crashed, and I've been hit with a nasty flu, and none of that really matters. Not saying you're apathetic or anything, but if you've taken the time to both read my work and watch me, well... that's something very special to me. Something that I feel I have to pay back in some way. Unfortunately, I've really been dropping the ball on that.
But I have a solution, of sorts: my gift to you. I've now got a twitter account.
On that, I intend to post at least weekly, with maybe an update, maybe some thoughts, and maybe even some sneak peeks. That way, even if I don't post anything here for a while, at least you'll all know I'm still around. Cuz I'm certain all of us have been in the situation where you find a great TF creator, and then realize they haven't posted in years. I know that, because that creator could very well be me. But not anymore.
Two more things to note. This is not a request to follow me on Twitter, though it is appreciated if you decide to do that. If you've watched me here, you've done more than enough. I'll have the site on my page, so you can either follow me, or just click the link every once in a while. I don't want this gift to require work for you all; that's another situation I know you've all been in before.
The final note is... a bit more personal. See, I've already got a twitter account. I've had it for 7 years. It's an account that I actually use fairly often for dumb memes and the like. But now that I've got another account... things might get messy. Think of it like crossing the streams; if these two accounts meet, everything will be destroyed. But I've handled two reddit and discord accounts fine, so maybe it won't be a problem.
In any case, here's the twitter: https://twitter.com/yoshielder I couldn't get a bow for it.
My question: How do you juggle your rl and your 'alt' online? Or do they intersect?

If you mean how do I separate in-character stuff from out-of-character stuff... That's actually trickier, at least sometimes. If I'm chatting with someone, I generally consider myself ooc, even though my words are attributed to Xodiac and I ostensibly look like him. But sometimes chat kind of slides into a casual, unplanned RP, at which point I am definitely in character. Similarly, in the descriptions of some of the pictures of Xodiac I've commissioned I talk about what's happening as if it's to me, and sometimes like it's happening to Xodiac as if he was someone else. Which it is depends on the picture and the scenario behind it that I have in mind.
Hope this helps. If not, sorry, but you'll need to be a little clearer what you mean.
