2023 writing goals
Dec. 30th, 2022 07:10 pmI've been kinda chill about writing goals this year, and it's an energy I'd like to take into the new year! However, I would also like to have some, and the meme going around twitter seemed fun. This will be covering the following:
1) a ship you want to write
2) a genre you want to write
3) word count you want to surpass
4) a trope you want to incorporate
5) a pov you want to try
6 au you want to write
7) a resource you want to use
8) a friend you'd like to collab with
9 something you want to improve on
10) something you want to keep doing

2022 in music
Dec. 28th, 2022 10:48 pmIt's near enough to the end of the year that I figured I'd put together a brief recap of music I liked this year! This is primarily focusing just on albums released in 2022, since I already do a monthly recap of music I listen to, but I'll be throwing a brief yearly recap in here as well to poke some gentle fun at myself.
( what a good spread of albums )

In the spirit of the great reclists I've read recently, here's some fics of one of my favorite tropes, vampire au. Feel free to rec more below!
This is weighted toward The Boyz, in part because excellent mv Drink It was enough to launch a thousand vampire-captained ships (I have a few in my drafts myself).

november media
Dec. 1st, 2022 08:25 pmI'm always fond of the month of november--the period between fall and early winter, where everything slowly sheds its colors and the bones of the trees face the sky.
Some misc things at the top of this:
- The yearly love meme run by gdgdbaby is up again details here, and my link is here! It's basically a chance to leave anonymous notes to friends. Link me yours if you're participating this year <3
- If you have spotify and got your wrapped playlist this year, I would love to listen to it!!! (You'll have to make a copy of it and link from that, if you just try to link the playlist itself, spotify automatically directs anyone else to their own version of top 101 songs, instead of yours.)
( it's the season of the sticks AND scorpio season, in my heart )

Nov. 5th, 2022 12:32 pmHappy month of Halloween! This month really felt like fall to me finally. I started wearing sweaters around the house, it's pretty good. Also felt pretty satisfied by the books I read!

index of vlive archive projects

Hello!
I'm writing this at the end of October 2022. In January 2022, HYBE and Naver announced a merger, in which HYBE's subsidiary beNX (later renamed WEVERSE COMPANY Inc.) would acquire Naver's live video streaming service V Live.
As many of us suspected, Naver recently announced that V Live services would be terminated by December 31, 2022. This includes, to the best of my knowledge, the archives of past vlives of all groups who use that service. There may be exceptions for groups who can work out a deal with WEVERSE to transfer their content, but most of the details remain unclear. (If anyone can provide some sources that clarify this, I will update this paragraph!)
Project Summary
Given the above, I've seen a lot of projects that are archiving individual groups' vlive content, but not any place where fans of multiple groups can find links to these projects. This post is an attempt to start an archive of that nature.
Given also that there's still a little over a month before vlive is completely terminated, I hope that this post might let people interested in archiving smaller groups know whose content has already been uploaded, and where to focus their efforts.

september media
Oct. 10th, 2022 10:00 pmAfter the initial shine of graduation wore off, I feel kind of adrift. I don't want to get a masters but sometimes it feels like the promise of stability is tempting enough to apply. I want things I can't articulate!!!
ANYWAY, here's september, which honestly was spent a lot being sad, and a little watching new things. I'm trying to be happier!!
( happy fall )

Have you ever been jogging and wished the tempo of the song to which you were jogging matched your steps? Well, me too!
I'm here to answer your burning question: when I'm jogging, what Stray Kids song will best take my workout from a slump to on track? What song will be my booster? What song is really at my pace? (Ok sorry, I love you, the rest of the post will be serious.)
I listen to a lot of kpop when I'm walking around the neighborhood, and I wanted something that would match my steps when I was doing it, hence this post.
( too invested? could never be me )

Aug. 1st, 2022 05:03 pmPlease imagine I have the braincells to make a pithy joke about july here! Busy month! I've tried to make time for friends among work and working on my thesis, but the results have been mixed. I keep telling myself I'm almost through. I'm almost through!!!

Jul. 6th, 2022 04:51 pmWow what a month??? Seriously this feels like at least three months in one. Happy pride?
Walked in graduation (though I have one quarter left of college), moved back home, still working on my thesis, and went to the east coast to see friends and skz! Started a new internship! I feel pulled in six directions at once, but hopefully this will all settle down a little when I submit my thesis.

Hello friends! I spent the month of May getting really into MCR while also getting increasingly stressed over my thesis. Also featuring poetry books, a podcast, and a return of my love affair with yowapeda.

To-Read List Tour
Apr. 24th, 2022 10:58 amA little tour of my to-read list (in lieu of actually reading them), in hopes that this will get me a little more organized about it!
Addendum after writing this: oh my god this is so long. My top priorities on this list are the stuff assigned for class.( realistically not going to finish all of these in 2022 )

Apr. 2nd, 2022 02:55 pmThe end of winter quarter, spring break, and the beginning of spring! Lots happened. I spent my spring break visiting friends rather than reading or watching anything, so this is rather sparse.

longfic roundtable
Mar. 7th, 2022 09:24 pmLonger Fic
Recently I reached out on twitter to ask people who had written longer fic about how they had done it, what their process is like, and if they'd be willing to share their thoughts. I was overwhelmed by the response, and this post is the result!
I've been calling it a roundtable because I think that's what it most resembles: writers I really admire coming together to answer questions about longfic. Imagine, everyone sitting at a table, trading notes, seasonally appropriate drinks in hand. It's a lovely night to pull out a wip.
Since everyone received the same questions, comparing answers has been really interesting.

I realized recently that there's not going to be a better moment than now to try and read stuff I want to and I'm not going to wait around for free time to happen. Let's go reading books in 2022!
