    Your Star Wars story is fun, I hope you'll pick it back up at some point. I would've just posted this in that thread, but since it hasn't been posted in for almost two years, I didn't want to risk the mod attention.

    It's fine, the last year has been stressful for everyone and I remember that you said you've been having issues with your job to boot.
    Fencer

    Yeah. It's been good for my bank account but not much else. Hopefully that'll be changing really soon but nothing guaranteed yet.

    I wish you luck with that.

    Things have suddenly started falling into place. I've got a possible line on a welding job with more standard hours and without this work every other weekend crap I'm dealing with now. Nothing certain yet but if it pans out I'll be much happier and on my way to learning the trade I'm committed too and I'll have more free time which means more updates. Fingers crossed folks.

    Passed the weld test with flying colors! Fingers crossed folks I might be getting my life back!

    Stargate is back up on Netflix.... my objections to writing a worm Stargate cross are back down to lack of time... Damn nostalgia, hello binge watching.

    You people, crazy as you can be, are an anchor I sorely need to get through the day without screaming sometimes. Thanks, all of you :)

    I am currently taking college level welding courses. Do you have any advice for someone getting into the field?
    Fencer
    Fencer
    Honestly I should probably be the one asking you that. I had a ten week crash course that got me to barely competent. My only real advice is apply to anything and everything you can find. I've found most people want 3 to 5 years experience but don't let that stop you. I spent two months applying to everything within 3 states before I found someone willing to train me up. Be persistent and don't give up.

    Found new job one that actually pays well for once!!! Writing time is super minimal. Sorry all this is likely to seriously screw my usual update speeds.

    Why does your account say suspended on it?

    DoubleThought
    Moderator action. It appears Fencer has been suspended due to either some misconduct, or some conduct that was falsely interpreted to be rule-breaking.

    Looks like he got salty over the SW sequels, and caught an infraction.

    Does anyone else find that isolation strangles their muse? Is that just me? Before corona I'd just go sit in a library if I had writers block, but now? Is anyone else having this issue?

    Its actually helped me, i've gotten more ideas in the last few months than the past few years.
    I need to do something 'else', to be somewhere 'else' so i grab onto my muse's prompts and give them a go.
    As i've done everything else that i can do at home.
    Fencer
    I have one regret about taking up writing as a serious hobby. The standards for what I'll read keep getting stricter. Really starting to miss the days I could loose myself in any half assed fic with a decent concept.

    Tell me about it, i'm not much of a writer but i haven't been able to read on FF.net for ages as none of the new stuff is up to snuff.
    I have to follow writers that i know are good and focus on them, just like most of the pro written stuff now that i think about it.
    Fencer
    I have a welding job now!!! My life is going to be chaos for a few days, but I start a new job next week and I will be the best welder I can be and I'll be sure to throw stories to all of you in what promises to be a great deal of free time isolated in a motel room when I'm not at work. I'll probably need the distraction as much as anyone else.

    That's great news. I'm just coming here after watching Archer and Flames. Both are riveting, and I'm looking forward to whatever you end up crunching out in your now spare time. Keep up the awesome work, and don't burn out!
    Fencer
    I finally... FINALLY, started my first original story. I might be out of my mind, but I'm doing it anyway.

    Sorry to bother you; but you're a pretty good writer and I'm trying to post an Elfen Lied/Worm snippet, how would you recommend going about getting it proofread and posted?

    Hang on going to send you a pm.

    Just saw star wars rise of skywanker.
    disney wins the award for worst fanfic trilogy ever written by a native english speaker. Star wars is dead long live it's shambling corpse with mouse ears.

    If you like Star wars have you tried Quintessence a Star wars/ Worm fic on FF.net?

    Ehhh it's solid work quality wise but I'm familiar with the authors work. They have a tendency to go dark and angsty for the sake of dark and angsty. It's a trend which has proven prevalent in this story as well. Not bad work but it's a choice in style I find grating.
    Fencer
    Plotting a worm x SAO fic that shows real promise. Damn you ADHD, I have too many projects already!

    Favorite part of Borderlands three is the little kid who growls "gear box" when the game is loading. So adorable.

    Read through Flames on the nightshift the other night, didn't want to be rude and necro the thread but I must say I had a Hell of a lot of fun with it! Never watched Katekyo before but now you've piqued my interest and I'm going to so I can go back to Flames with a new perspective.
    I sincerely hope there's plenty more to come!

    I'd honestly give KHR a meh rating but the flame powers are really cool and broken. There are a few really amazing fanfics out that change the tone to something more serious and do their best to jail break flame powers. Those I would highly recommend

    Plotting to write an amazing original fic... by means of writing the most expansive fanfic my mind can cook up

    How's the writing ongoing for Company Girl?

    Fencer
    At the moment it's not. I hope to come back to it someday but right now I'm focused on other fics. Sorry.

    Contemplating pokemon as a death world... there is so much potential there.

    There is a Pokemon that kills people if they look underneath it's crude Pikachu disguise, one that represents the spirits of dead children, and several that are outright ghosts. It's already a death world.

    Right but it's a manga setting no one plays it straight. Well I saw one person do it but they wrecked it with over the top made up science and small adult syndrome.
