phyncke: Icon by me (Rydia of Myst by schellen)
Here is an update - I've lost track of the Snowflake Challenge - I am not sure I will catch back up with that this year. I have a lot going on right now. I will check out the prompts and see if they speak to me. I have kind of lost the thread there. So the future remains uncertain on that - it is feeling like a burden to get back to it so I don't know. I might do the ones I like and leave it at that. I just don't know.

I have been writing my MSV story and have 2049 words right now. Happy with my progress on that and hope to get it done on time. I am trying to keep it simple and straight forward. Hope it cooperates.

I have to have knee surgery on January 24. I have a torn meniscus at the root so my ortho has to repair that. It takes 4 weeks to recover from that so I am trying to prepare for that - stocking the house, cleaning and getting things ready here. It is hard to imagine having limited mobility during that time and I have never used crutches so I don't know how that will go. I have help from friends and neighbors so things should be ok. Think good thoughts for me. I appreciate it.

That is about all I have. Hope all is well with you there. Take good care!

In your own space, make a list of things that you wish existed in fandom or elsewhere, and/or that you'd like someone to create or do for you.

-Timeline page for each age in the Silmarillion and LOTR ages - with dates and descriptions This might exist already but I have not found a good one. This would be really helpful. I will look for this. But a descriptive timeline for the works would be great.

-Really good interactive maps for the LOTR/Silmarillion works - I would love to be able to click in and get more and more detailed - like a google map situation. Have not found it anywhere.

(working on this and will add more later - these are the first two things I can think of) Place holder post - will do this later

Snowflake Challenge #2

In your own space, set some goals for the coming year. They can be fannish or not, public or private.


-work on my financial health - credit - savings - recovery
-look at my WIP story and work on that - do some writing in between challenges
-maintain my space better - more consistently
-start the de-cluttering process in my home - going through things and downsizing to get ready for retirement (8 year plan)
-re-commit to fitness and weight loss - find my why again and motivation

So that looks pretty good. I don't want this to be huge and unwieldy. I want it to be manageable.

Thanks for reading!

Update your fandom info

In your own space, update your fandom information! Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.


I updated my profiles on LJ and DW and simplified those by a lot. I had a lot of old things on there that are no longer relevant. I did update the link to my fiction so that it goes to AO3 so that will work now. It was going to a deadlink. I am not doing a huge amount in fandom right now - just one challenge a year so I think my profile reflects that.

Cheers!
