Nerd Church - The Writer Diaries: 7 Radical Ways To Defeat Writer's Block
Staring at the blank page (...or screen...) we've all been there.
You need to write the thing - but the thing just doesn't seem to want to be written.
You have the Dreaded Writer's Block.
But Writer's Block ain't welcome around here!
I don't put up with Writer's Block (that pushy little so-and-so) - and neither should you!

Friday Fics Fix - Draco In A Bow
'“Okay, so look, so, Harry's birthday, yeah? Is soon. And the thing is, he's sort of... well, he doesn't need much. In general. And in... not general he can buy anything he fancies himself. So I kind of don't know what to get him. Except... I know that he fancies you...”'
It's my birthday tomorrow (15th Sep)!
And as such, I'm totally picking a birthday-themed Drarry fic this week. Because birthday.
Yes, this is total Mindless Self Indulgence.

Comics Wrap-Up - Everyone Here Is A Trophy
Like, what did I do to you Loki?! Why am I the outlet for your mischief?!* 😉
As you may've guessed, everything in this comics wrap-up is in the 'Other Stuff' category again.
And as always I blame Loki.

*Not that I'd overly object to that 😉

Micropoetry - August 2018
More Micropoetry time!
And August's Micropoetry from yours truly was just as random-a** and eclectic as ever - enjoy!
Three pieces for you this time, all with graphics.
As ever, if you're using a screen reader, the poetry will be in the alt-text of the images, with / marks showing line breaks.

Nerd Church - Creativity Takes Time (...And That's A Good Thing)
Practice makes perfect. Well... it doesn't. But it makes it better than it was when you started!
Unfortunately, when it comes to creative stuff - the process is slow.
Some people, somewhere, are the lucky one in a billion who can create a masterpiece with no practice or preamble. (Lucky so-and-sos.)

Friday Fics Fix - Snapshot in the Stars
'Nebula sits on the small piece of ship beside him. “That’s exactly what we were - mercenaries to do his bidding. He trained us, ‘loved’ us, sent us to do whatever he felt was necessary to do.”'
In case you were wondering, this has SPOILERS for Avengers: Infinity War.
So consider this your warning: SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!
