My serial fiction project is underway! I spent longer that I would have liked getting everything set up, so the first part is shorter than I originally intended.

The title of the story is Voice of the Library, and I'll be tagging it #VoiceOfTheLibrary going forward. It's a fantasy story about a young dragon and the living spirit of a forgotten library. Have a read, it'll be fun.

First installment: https://voice.ninetailed.uk/chapter-1-episode-1/

All right, let's try this #Introductions thing.

Hi, I'm Terrana, and I'm a dragon.
I enjoy video games, particularly I with a building/automation theme. Factorio and modded Minecraft are favourites.
I enjoy science fiction and particular kinds of fantasy, particularly with a technical focus.
I'm an amateur writer but I have problems staying focused on projects.
I develop software and have Opinions about data security.
I like tabletop RPGs but have had no luck in finding one to join, so I GM.

Are you a fuzzyboop? Do you know someone who might be? Don't delay. Arrange petting immediately.

Well. My router's dead. I've rigged up a temporary replacement so everyone here still has internet access, but it's not a long term solution. So, having to find a new router.

There's a lot of folks online say that if you know how, you should get a mini-PC and build your own. I do know how, but I also know I don't have the time, energy or patience for it.

So, I need an off-the-shelf one that isn't awful. Anyone got any favourites?

I find myself wanting to play Shadowrun. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who'll run a game, so meh.

Wait I only slept for 7 hours? Without an alarm set? What sorcery is this?

Right. Time to fix some bugs in Psi. I love it when people open source their mods. #Minecraft

Me, playing #Subnautica: "Yes, I just ate an entire bulbo tree, what of it?"

Me, grocery shopping:
*picks up celery* "Ah, this'll do." *uncharacteristically deep, growly voice* "Yᴏᴜ Hᴀᴠᴇ Bᴇᴇɴ Cʜᴏsᴇɴ."

Fun fact: someone I live with can actually pronounce "!".

Realisation: there is a .tf TLD. This has definite Furry potential.

Shouldn't going to bed earlier mean I'm less tired in the morning?

I enjoy using inappropriate yet not entirely wrong idioms for things.

Example: "My reflexes aren't worth the paper they're written on."

"What are your pronouns?"
"Oh, no thanks, I just ate."

No.

Do you know the muffin man? Could you describe him for our sketch artist? If you know of his whereabouts, contact police immediately.

My oral health has improved to the point where seeing blood in the sink is unusual enough to be notable. I didn't think that would ever happen!

The BBC News website has a story titled: "World Cup 2018 — England v Panama: Six things to look out for."
Now, I don't have much interest in football, but I decided to take a guess at what those things might be.

1. A football
2. Some football players arranged into teams
3. One team having more players than the other
4. BOTH teams having more players than the other
5. The grass of the playing field rising up and claiming its freedom
6. Sport(s)

Today I'm too tired to do anything useful. This is frustrating.
