Yeah my face is like Mustang's in the icon. Honestly day one wasn't that bad but some students didn't know TR meant Tuesday and Thursday and weren't there. The book store failed AGAIN. That's the biggest issue for me. Other than that my day is long and otherwise uninteresting so let me launch into some Snowflake challenges
Challenge #8
In your own space, create a quiz or a poll (or tell us your thoughts about answering quizzes/polls). Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
I almost took a pass on this because my brain was a) WHEE love this idea b) I HAVE NO QUESTIONS. Snort. Here's something I half assed because it does interest me.
Challenge #9
In your own space, celebrate a personal win from the past year: it can be a list of fanworks you're especially proud of, time you spent in the community, a quality or skill you cultivated in yourself, something you generally feel went well.

Okay fandom wise there are these stories I'm super proud of (They're all Prodigal Son)
Digging Up Bones the latest novel-length entry into my series where Ainsley tried to cover her crime by killing Malcolm and what happens when he survives.
Bound by Fear the latest novel-length entry into my series where Martin did try to kill Malcolm as a kid and what happens when he survives (are we seeing a pattern)
Forbidden my AU romance for![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
unconventionalcourtship using Gil and Jessica (which is wild since in general I don't do AUs)
What the Hex Is Going On? A story with Edrisa and Malcolm (which tends to get much less notice) with a supernatural mystery flare for bothfandomtrumpshate (a charity auction that might interest you) and ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
spook_me (one of my favorite challenges)
Ignis Aurum Probat Episode 3X11 in a fan written virtual season for Prodigal Son. This was HARD. I don't like script writing much as it turns out and working with this many authors was more of a job than loads of fun. Still very proud of my script and the whole series.
Outside of fandom I'm very proud of Red of Tooth and Claw my 1980s era monster hunting college kids team story is 3/4ths the way done. I'd still love an alpha/beta reader for it and regardless I DID write a little holiday thing for it right here Fire Hazards
Also I went to New England on my own in spite of fears. For newcomers to my blog, in one month it'll be 2 years (somehow) since I had a serious fall and nearly lost my right leg. 2021 was me learning to walk and 2022 was continuing recovery. I was afraid to fly if the knee couldn't handle it and I wasn't sure I was up to a drive that big. As it turned out I had no issues at all.
Also very proud that I went HIKING with friends. Yes it was flat, yes it was short but that was my first time in the woods since the accident.
