Pinterest finally realizing no one wants their shitty AI posts 🙄😮‍💨

Creative drive is low these days. A lot of my time and energy is put into school and work.

Here are some sketches I did today: a very low-energy day.

General disappointment in myself & work/boss problems 😴

If you end up publishing some of your writing, PLEASE let me see it!! I would love to start a little writer community <3

Also, also, I have a printable version of this exact calendar on my patreon for free if that layout is better for you!

Happy writing <3

A lot of this I have already done to an extent, but I am still drafting and finalizing my WIP. And that is why I'm super excited for October 31, Halloween: Release some of your writing to the pubic! I would love to publish my WIP to get feedback from beta readers.

In my research, I found out that NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) is no longer active and discovered Plotober. In my writing challenge list, I decided to combine them a bit, with mostly a focus on what I needed to get done for my university project.

Akitsu 🌺 @zakitsu.bsky.social · 18d

I am in the middle of writing my own novel for a university project. I have been meaning to revitalize my Bluesky with a push toward writing creation for the last few weeks, and I decided to use October as a push as a replacement for drawtober through a writing challenge.

200 done! 🎉 I drew a thought bubble for Girafarig questioning if Pineco was a pinecone but realizing it looks like an artichoke too now 😆
