July 2025 monthlog
July has felt really long. Which is great. Maximum July.
Updates here
- 21 blog posts
- put my list of Bear TTRPG blogs in its own blogroll and currently got 45!
- changed the blog theme, worked on the links page and home page, added 'last updated' to the pages, fixed my annoyance with the widely-spaced bullet points (and made them green!) and a few other bits around the place. All I want now is to put all the footer on a single line together
- worked on ridiculous things, and put some ridiculous things there
- my project on Marianne North's autobiography is a go, more on which soon
Progresses elsewhere
- made a tiny interactive story for my writing group. As an intro to Twine for myself
- sent a zine to a friend. The first time any of that has left my own home
- made a further zine, which has not left my own home
- quite a few changes to my digital setup: doing the degoogling, dealing with annoyances, and doing the deamazoning
- wrote some thousands of words on a story and edited an 8k chapter where the whole thing is just a series of conversations in a hotel restaurant. Now it's a series of conversations in a hotel restaurant and a glove shop
- watched The Bear so I'm thinking about an entirely different restaurant-based story it's been a year since I touched
- in aims for July: Been on some mini adventures - a real hit. Losing my mind reupholstering these chairs and the fabric was delayed then I couldn't get the right staples so I've only done two
- played the goose game with the niblings a lot and went to the cinema three whole times
Aims for August
- the bloody chair reupholstering
- some games days with friends (who will probably want to sit down. On a chair)
- some organising I think
