Update: A Bit of Chaos

Posted on February 10, 2020 by Jaluna

Long time no see, everyone! Sorry for disappearing like I did. I’ve recently been in a major burn out mode for my blogging… I just couldn’t keep my mind fresh for each day’s post, you know? That’s why, for today, I’m just going to go with the flow… and give you some updates along the way.

First off, I won’t be posting on a schedule anymore. At least, not now, not for a while. I can’t handle schedules as well as I used to- I had a vlog schedule and screwed it up heavily last week. Schedules and I just aren’t mixing well right now. So, from now on, you’ll have to keep your eyes peeled until I can get the newsletter extension to work. I’ll be working hard to figure out how to do that, too, because I really wanna write one for you guys!

Another change is that I’m going to reincorporate writing into my posts sometimes. I’ve realized that while it wouldn’t be a professional blog, I never actually ended up starting one- and instead, I feel more comfortable sharing my writing attempts with you, my lovely readers, than try to keep myself totally business oriented on another blog. Plus, again, schedules would be needed and I can’t do those as easily as I used to. So that’s that.

Now for some life updates. My boyfriend and I broke up about two weeks ago now. Honestly, this was a very hard blow for me and my mental health. I was depressed for a long while, and I’m still not quite over it. That said, I’ve wandered back into the dating pool and have found some interesting people along the way. There’s one girl I’ve got my eye on right now, but I’m a bit uneasy about some things. Still, I really like her… So we’ll see how that goes.

In terms of my writing life, I have two things to share. One, I’m working on entering one writing contest per month, so if you know of any for poetry or short stories, please let me know! I’m also now working on writing a series. I’m in between writing and planning right now, but it’s how I’ve decided to meld two of my writing ideas into one. I’ll give you a synopsis and such at another time, though. Today’s focus is just to give you updates!

Let’s see, what else, what else… My medical problems are starting to worsen, at least as of late. Unfortunately, my headaches are getting really bad, I’m chronically dizzy, and my intermittent exotropia is acting up quite often, so I’m seeing double quite a bit of the time. (In case you don’t know what an exotropia is, it’s when one eye turns outward while the other eye stays focused!)

Another thing I forgot to mention is some new projects and things! Well, I guess the series news was technically project related. But oh well! The two projects I have going on?

Well, for starters, I’m a livestreamer on Twitch now! You can watch me at random intervals here. I’m mostly playing My Time at Portia right now due to the fact that Pathea, the people behind it, are going to donate all proceeds from the game this month to a charity that’s working to help deal with the Coronavirus epidemic.

The other thing I plan on working on more is mapping in RPGmaker. I’ll be making small maps regularly (I was doing this for a while last month, but I couldn’t keep up with it). It will no longer be every day, but I intend to do at least three a week. Please comment if you want me to post the images here- otherwise I’ll only be posting them on DeviantART, which you can find here.

I’m still youtubing, by the way. If you get bored, check out my channel here and maybe comment some ideas of videos you’d like to see! I’d love to hear from you guys!

Now that this post has reached over 666 words (it was 666 at the end of the previous paragraph!), I think it’s about time I let you go. Please let me know what projects you’d be interested in seeing more about, whether it’s my forum (which I forgot to mention still exists), my videos, or anything else. I’d love to know what you want to see- and I’m happy to share just about anything!

Take care, guys!

    Again I’m sorry bout your boyfriend. But it’s cool you’re meeting new people.

    As for blogging I would just blog whenever you feel like. I’d love to see anything you feel like sharing!

    Also I hope you feel better soon.
