News from the creative corner
Mar. 27th, 2023 06:30 pmI was busy today. Very, very busy. But it was a good thing, as I was busy with my own interests, with lots of me-time. Yay!
First, I boxed the Easter biscuits that got finished yesterday. That was quick, but I'm glad it's done and out of my hair.
Then I took out my Enterprise/Whoniverse crossover trilogy and completely revised the layout of the second and third parts. Well, perhaps "rearranged" would be a better word for it. I've finalized the canon episodes that will be handled in these two parts, inserted the AU elements I'm going to use, and now I know what will happen, in which order and how it will all end. I'm very pleased, even though it means that Part 2 will gain at least six additional chapters, aside from the two or three that had originally been planned. But that can't be helped, if I want to deliver a coherent story.
This, of course, means downloading and printing out several more episode summaries and transcripts (I'll need a lot of canon dialogue for this to work), but hey, it can be done! I'm very happy.
I also did a bit of crafting in the afternoon. The Hello Kitty booklets now all have the beds and the bedroom rugs fixed. Next up will be the bedside tables, the lamps(*) and the wall clocks, and the bedrooms will be finished. That would be two rooms out of four, each, so I actually might be able to complete the things by the end of June when they are due.
Oh, and Stories of Arda is down again. It briefly worked last night, but all I'm getting now is an error message again. I hope it doesn't mean the site would be about to collapse. I was planning to download a few favourites today... :((
(*) The original bedroom design I downloaded as a free template had a fish bowl on the bedside table, but that could be dangerous, right? What if Kitty becomes peckish during the night? That goldfish wouldn't stand a chance! *g*
