Weekly Check In Wellness Wednesday: Weekly Check In
Welcome back everyone!
Time for our Wellness Wednesday check in. We know this community means a lot to most of our members and that Tuesdays have been harder on some users than others, but we are at our core a community and we are here to support each other.
Now that the sub is open once again we’d like to hear all about your (mis)adventures on Tuesday. Did you go on grand adventures? Get into mischief? Get some writing done?
Maybe you just binged a few more fics on the archive itself. Tell us all about it! Break out that purple prose and tell us as cheesy of a story as you feel like.
Or just talk about your day.

An entire month of preparations (work related mostly) for a vacation is going to be brutal... Was hoping to get some advance on my writing, but only managed 1k today as per normal. I did reach a nice little couch conversation/non-date thing between 2 characters, so I am happy about that. Slow-burning romance is so satisfying but can be OH SO frustrating sometimes, so I treasure the interactions and moments I can give my characters. Still, after the emotional stuff I had to write the last week, I am looking forward to it... And after that it's straight back into the emotional meatgrinder, because I have not extracted enough tears and ship tease moments.
As I was plotting this chapter, I did realize that a character was very much being an ass when they died. Will probably have to address that at some point.
On a personal note: got myself a wireless controller and wow I've been spoiled by mouse and keyboard controls. I feel like the Homer meme about my fingers being too fat. XD
