Just like RPing is all about the posts you don't write.

The gap in the door... it's a separate reality.
The only me is me.
Are you sure the only you is you?

Patiently waiting for the first issue of Hellblazer to hit my feed

Guess Nates writing all my posts now.
God knows someone has to.
The good news is I've finished my post planning and have a pretty good idea of what I might like to do for a second sheet.
The bad news is this all means I can no longer productively procrastinate and must now face the stark reality of 'oh god I have to actually write now'. We'll see what happens.

I am floating the idea in my head of a secondary character explicitly for hip-fire, spaff-on-the-wall posts while I continue working on my Constantine re-write in the background. Something for easy no-pressure fun, where currently I may or may not ever bring Constantine to see the light of day.
The main gimmick/condition of this sheet would be I'd only be writing collab posts with other players, or cameos/features in other player's plots; there would be no solo posts of this character. This way, I get to write, the IC becomes a little more interactive, and I can crossover with anyone who fancies it, but I don't have to worry about quibbles like 'direction' and 'plot' and 'story' so much.
Naturally this would require activity in the IC and a functional and present player cast to be sustainable/feasible, so it's up in the air, and I also need to consider what kind of character I'd bring for a second sheet, but wanted to see if this was something other players/the GMs would be open to.

Oh. I was at the Funeral Home sorting through some stuff. Cool to see. Looking forward to writing again or trying to.
It's times like these that the Guild's choice of 'Like', 'Laugh', or 'Thank' post reactions really don't cut it.

When did they let you make decisions? 👁️
16:20 GMT if the post timestamps are accurate.
How are people feeling about collabs or interaction?
Here's my wish list so far with Arthur:
- Hellblazer Hellspawn shenanigans? @Roman
Not wanting to force anything, just throwing it out there in case it inspires any of those posts Wraith needs to get his fix.
Sorry, the story I'm pursuing with John is very very solo and set in England and isn't conducive to or available for interaction. This is partly by design so that if I don't get myself off the ground (which, while the planning is going well and I'm making a lot of headway in my plot and post-plan rewrites, and it's been fun and helping my juices get flowing again, is looking increasingly apparent), I also don't hamper anybody else who's gotten involved with my character. On the flipside, I also just wanted to be able to focus on a singular plot without being beholden to, or having to account for, anyone else.

Completely legitimate question, but I doubt there's any one answer to it.
People may be struggling with inspiration for how to get started (I've been there), or have a concept that isn't translating to actual writing (been there too), running into unexpected life happens stuff (got the t-shirt), or maybe its something else entirely. I suspect the answer could be different in each case.
At the same time, the new thread smell may have worn off to some degree and its about trying to find connections and keep people engaged.
I think if anyone falls into the above categories, the GM team is here but throwing a line in the OOC can be a good start as well.
So then on this, it's as I outlined in my sheet; this is an attempt after complete burnout from my now-ex-job and plummeting to the worst mental health state I've ever been in in my life to figure out if I even can write anymore/again, and the application was made with the caveat that I might flatline out the gate. That might very well be happening and I apologise, but either way I'm carrying on with my plotting, and if I get as far as posts I'll share what I can.
@Roman I know, it's why i spam memes so much, i consider myself the modern version of The Titanic band trying to keep everyones spirits up while the ship sinks around us.
I have enough comedians. Have you tried assassination instead?
I personally don't get the imgur ban. Like, they already banned all the porn from imgur, what's left to protect kids from?
Also, i'm working on my "Bailey Briggs is Captain Marvel" sheet now.
It’s not a targeted ban of Imgur; it’s a decision by Imgur themselves to stop servicing the UK, because if they want to, they have to do it within the criteria of the new Online Safety Act, or face penalty, and it’s easier to opt out of servicing a region entirely than it is to change the infrastructure of your site/service, or introduce new infrastructure, to operate within those constraints. This isn’t the Online Safety Act restricting Imgur, it’s Imgur switching off service for the UK because they’ve decided it’s too much hassle to continue. Either way it’s putrid dogshit but what isn’t in the world today.
It also has nothing to do with protecting children, that’s just a clichéd facist dogwhistle rolled out on demand to get new governmental control and monitoring tools and legislation out the door.
