#UPDATES.

march is marching on so its housekeeping timeeee. honestly there isn't much that needs saying in my little Notes section of this month's housekeeping - last month was just... pretty quiet for me creatively and very noisy in my irl life hahaha. because of this i wasn't as productive writing wise as i wanted to be in february, BUT that's okay. it's a short month and sometimes life just keeps coming at you fast. overall my objective is to be more consistent and present, which seem like more sustainable approach for me rather than focusing on accruing a bunch of posts + interactions. my primary goal (detailed below) is to start more threads, but in tandem with that, my hope for march is to keep tuned in to the happenings of the group both ic and ooc, better than i was able to last month at least. i think doing so will help me continue towards a workable foundation for cater's ic presence in the directory's goings ons. •ᴗ• goals + progress under the cut!  ↷

#MANIFESTING.

in terms of keeping up with my writing goals last month, i wasn't super productive. i did for some reason prioritize and achieve my monthly stretch goal of finishing the stamp card, which honestly was a fun push on feb 28th when i remembered i wanted to do that kdfgkhfg. this month, i'm going to try to be more consistent with checking off the stamps. i did not manage to honour my goal of starting more threads + getting a starter call out. soooo, this month, my primary goal remains curation of more threads so i'm not just relying on one (1) for my activity every month. getting started is so intimidating to me for some reason but like... gotta do it ♡ i think i'll try to begin with an open starter and go from there bc idk how to start plotting otherwise lol. i was able to get through [2/5] of the memies symbol headcanon prompts, which i'm going to count as a win. i still have three that are being steadily drafted & queued, so finishing and sharing those by the month's end is hopefully in the stars as my secondary goal for march. nothing to report progress wise on the [3] additional meta/headcanon posts i mentioned in last month's housekeeping - i'm still ticking away at my cater thoughts and figuring out how i want to present them. they're technically still my tertiary goal, but i don't imagine i'll finish + share them until april unless i really start cranking out posts kahdfghkfg...

as always, my thread tracker is in my pinned post & i'm reachable on discord and twitter for plotting. happy writing, everyone!!

#UPDATES.

happy februaryyy i have finally kicked myself into action to get things rolling properly for the month here. i did a LOT of unexpected cross-continental travelling and moving around last month, which sort of squashed my activity ambitions... (in the mean time, i've been finishing up tweaks to the blog and fighting with posts, mostly. i for some reason have nooo ability to trim posts regardless of whatever extensions i use, so i'm still figuring out how to keep things tidy for everyone. eventually i gave up on that and played with aesthetics and graphics instead, pff. i finally have figured out a vibe that's consistent so i think i can focus on writing instead of just putting filters on photos, now. the muse possess the mun sometimes, lol.) anyway! i had a very satisfying first month as a member of the group and you've all been super welcoming - thank you! i'm eager to continue settling in and interact with more members of nru. last but not least, thank you, as well, to folks who sent cater little birthday greetings. they were warmly received and much appreciated as lil activity boosts!!

#MANIFESTING.

my primary aim is to begin writing with more people! i only have one (1) active thread right now, and so i'm chomping at the bit to write more broadly. i'll probably make a plotting/starter call, since that seems to be the go-to, though i find it tricky to generate ideas that way sometimes. i'll figure out my approach in the coming days, which of course you'll be the first to know! my secondary aim is to finish the memies symbol headcanon prompts, which i'm grateful to have received! they were indeed fun to begin drafting while on any multitude of airplanes. there are five in total that will be finished and queued soon. my tertiary aim is to complete and queue some of the independent headcanon posts i've been working on for cater! i find it easier to commit to actually finishing and sharing these sorts of things if i acknowledge them as they're in progress, so i have the following in the works: 𓆩⟡𓆪 - an analysis of cater's relationship to heartslabyul's ideals & socialization, complete with (unfortunately?) citations from sociological theory. 𓆩⟡𓆪 - a more detailed look into cater's affinity for astrology, and the areas of scholarly study within the discipline that he finds most interesting. 𓆩⟡𓆪 - cater's enneagram & mbti report, because there's nothing the world loves more than more personality tests my stretch goal is to crush that stamp card this month. i'm going to try sOOOO HARD. mark my words!!

as always, my thread tracker is in my pinned post & i'm reachable on discord and twitter for plotting, and a plotting call or open starter or both is on the way soon. now that im no longer larping as a jetsetter and am back to my natural homebody state, i'm excited to have some energy and focus to devote here in earnest hahaha.
