Whew it's finally done... two months overdue lol


Some positives first then:

All in all, I really enjoyed getting to write a variety of themes, settings, characters, and styles again as I have done in previous years. This year especially with how I more critically vetted the slot process, I didn't really think that I had to force myself to write with any prompt that I didn't enjoy myself to some degree. Time-wise, the past few months have been busy, and I kind of knew that when opening up these slots. Though, writing feels like a considerably more time consuming process compared to how much time I spend drawing, so I do feel like I should charge more for my writing. Let me know if any of you have any thoughts in DMs or in the comments below.

Also, (and it's not really that big of a problem) I find that I do go overboard on the exposition sometimes, and with a word-limited format like these stories, it eats up the word count that could otherwise be occupied by hypno scenes.

All in all I hope everyone was able to at least enjoy the stories I put out for this event! I'd gladly appreciate any feedback and I'm always look out for more ways to improve various aspects of my writing.


As for updates and future plans:

Story commissions are still going to be closed for the time being. The  EntrancingAwards are coming up so I need to start working on that in the coming weeks. I already have a story outline figured out for that so be on the lookout when I post it in March :3.

After that, I have the final chapter to write for Trial and Error which will tie up any loose ends still floating around regarding what I've established so far with the brainslug hivemind world :3.
