Merry Christmas to any and all who celebrate! Mine was nice. :)

As expected, this last week was very much taken up with holiday prep, and I did not do any writing. I'm not upset about it. I think things are probably going to be pretty fallow in terms of the writing progress, at least through the end of the year.

At the new year... I need to figure out what I want to do. I really haven't done what I hoped to here, and it's 100% on me and my lack of drive to do much. The flurry of energy that led to me creating this account and to really even consider "making a go of" having a penname... really didn't last.

On the one hand, I do enjoy not feeling too perceived!

On the other... part of me just wants to fold everything back into my main online presence, because the divide feels so artificial. It also feels very unnecessary, since I'm not really doing anything with it. I'm not being self-indulgent in a way that feels like "too much" for my main accounts. Some of the content of the writing *could* feel a little like "no, don't look at me!" but also... most of the actual online friendships I have are ones that I do believe could weather someone thinking I'm a bit weird.

So... I'm not completely sure what I want to do with this into the new year. I'm still deciding what I want to do, and whether writing is even going to be a focus for me in 2026. I want it to be, but know that I truly can't focus on everything that I want to; there's just not enough time and energy available. I have to prioritize, and while I've tried (and often failed) to make writing a priority, I don't know if I want to try again, or allow other things to take precedence, and allow writing to be the thing that fills in gaps when I do have the time and energy...

Well, that's more than I meant to go into on what was meant to be a quick "no update to see here" update on Christmas, haha.
