If I've been more quiet lately, I've had a bit on my mind between fic plotting and RP stuff.
OwlsNotAsThySem
Plus ....I've been kind of keeping the airways open for people with more pressing stuff going on than I do.

I feel that. Take some time for yourself when you can. I could imagine how being a writer + RPing might do number on your headspace. Also with like other RL business 
OwlsNotAsThySem
Honestly, the RP helps, since it loosens up parts of my head that get too editorial, if that makes any sense?
OwlsNotAsThySem
Like, it reminds me to keep spontaneous and worry less about making something polished straight out the gate,
OwlsNotAsThySem
It's easy to get bogged down with the technical parts of writing.

Polishing/editing is one place where it's easy to get mired. And then there's the publishing process.
OwlsNotAsThySem
Ho boy, That is a complete other beast entirely. And I have had some doozys at that end.
OwlsNotAsThySem
Also, I have to take care of the accounting aspect, and that's going to be interesting this year.

RP-wise... I may have to re-bejigger Wes getting killed in the olayer event: I tagged him in to someone and they haven't tagged back.
OwlsNotAsThySem
So... This is kind of holding things up and I'm frankly feeling a bit stuck.
OwlsNotAsThySem
Esp. since Wes is the plot muse, so...
OwlsNotAsThySem
Am messaging the person as well... I'm just hoping it's a case of DW Ate The Notif.
OwlsNotAsThySem
Notifs have been so incredibly unreliable lately, I'm about giving up on them and tagging exclusively from the journal inbox.

At the risk of a bonehead RP etiquette question, how long does one usually wait after you've tapped someone about a possibly dropped thread?
OwlsNotAsThySem
24 hrs? 48?
StarryNight
give it a day or two
OwlsNotAsThySem
/nods/ Thanks.
StarryNight
Ive noticed that things are super slow as of late
StarryNight
and that may be a quite a few reasons; I dont think the Chapter 2 thing helped
OwlsNotAsThySem
This is the frustration talking, but when haven't they been slow?

we all have different bad and good brain days

I'd finally made the comment on the 17th to the boss rush post on the 12th/
StarryNight
and people are still threading there
OwlsNotAsThySem
....technically Wes should be resurrected by now.
StarryNight
thats okay! he can be
StarryNight
as long as you put it to the mods
StarryNight
that he died on the 12th
OwlsNotAsThySem
But I can't put it to the mods till it happens... which it hasn't, which is why I feel stuck and a bit frustrated.
StarryNight
you can link the thread were it will happen
StarryNight
it doesn't have to be completed
StarryNight
on the date of
OwlsNotAsThySem
All righty...
OwlsNotAsThySem
And posted, though I admit, I'm worried it won't take for whatever reason.
OwlsNotAsThySem
I apologize for the grumbling above.
OwlsNotAsThySem
But you're right. The Chapter 2 thing isn't helping.
