Fifteen Minutes of Scrawl

Season premiere!  Gottmik looks great (as is no surprise) Roxxxy looks sexy Gosh I love Vanjie Angeria looks fabulous I LOVE NINA Lol to Vanjie's outfit flying off Plastique is drop-dead gorgeous Jorgeous looks so good I forgot that Shannel was the first queen to walk into the werkroom I like no elimination All Stars seasons Roxxy did do the best at the library challenge Lol at Shannel falling off the stage Ru's look is fun A new Ru song! Wait so they choreographed these back up dancers too? Gottmik looks rad I love the shape of Nina's look Plastique looks incredible Angeria looks lovely So Vanjie is beautiful, can't deny it, but I'm not a huge fan of her outfit And I'll say the same about Jorgeous Shannel looks so elegant Roxxxy clearly has a sense of humor about herself, which I love, but I'm not in love with her outfit So I'm liking Angeria's performance better, but I think Jorgeous is going to win Oh wow, Angeria won! Lol ruby snippers I think I

It'll be here so soon!  Whale watching with a friend Bookstore crawl with a friend 57th Street Art Fair Beach days Movies in the park Swapping out my wardrobe Being done with egg retrievals (hopefully) Helping a friend plan her wedding Going to Galena Taking other trips with friends Doing more sessions of my D&D one shot Eating ice cream on hot days Dining at the Point Trying to find an agent for my picture book ideas (hopefully) Reading more (hopefully) (Prompts by me) "Sperm Whale diving" by Bernard Spragg.

So with the blessing of my DM, I am going to be writing letters home from my D&D character Rivulet Brooks. Here is the first one! Dear Glarmet, Not sure when this letter will find you as I know you are often sailing, but it may be even longer before you can reach me these days. You have likely already heard from our friends at the temple, but I have taken up with a party of adventurers and left Goa. I am sorry that we did not get a chance to say goodbye, but I do believe Geshtai will ensure that our paths cross again one day. Until then, perhaps letters will serve our friendship well. I have done and seen quite a lot in my time away from Goa. I hope I can tell you more over a drink or a boat ride sometime, but I must be brief for we are headed for Hart's Crossing (perhaps try and send a missive there--write that I am a member of the Wandering Wyverns). I do feel like I might be closer to finding my true purpose in this life. Before I depart, I wanted to write and ask what you k

Time for some clashes. Emily's mom shouldn't have said that she gives cow skin to her dogs I like that Emily is excited to learn Cameroonian cooking Wow even the very beginning of Rob and Sophie's therapy session is rough Oop Sophie doesn't know how old Rob is So Rob has a thing for Velma Okay, TLC, you do not HAVE to show Loren's surgery like this Oy Manuel and Ashley need therapy Oh Jasmine, get thee to a therapist Patrick, you should've asked her dad for a blessing Lol Loren ordered a delivery of toast Rob's voice was so flat when he gave Sophie compliments Emily's dad is really trying Okay so I get Emily's mom being hesitant about the bride price, HOWEVER, I would encourage her to examine many American traditions around marriage like the father "giving away" the bride Loren is loopy Man, Manuel's friend is trying so hard Wait how is it watery and strong at the same time, Gino?

Time for some confessions. So beauty is misspelled in Madelein's salon I don't need to watch Kyle brush Ani's hair Kyle...you have to know what you did in Australia Okay, Shawn, you've been married to one woman... Shawn doesn't want someone fun or dynamic Madelein is more forgiving than I'd be How easy would it be to move to Australia for an American and an Italian, Adriano?

Time for gators! Patrick and Thaís's baby is too cute This is going to be a busy day for Patrick and Thaís Okay, Nicole, just leave Mahmoud alone Also, Mahmoud definitely did try to just leave you on the streets of Cairo It's still like day 2 or 3...right? I forgot Ashley smoked Gino adding a bath bomb to a bubble bath is a little funny Jasmine loves gators like me Do the alligator vibes I DON'T NEED CLOSE-UPS OF GINO'S TOES I wonder if surgery is Loren and Alexei's whole storyline I feel like there are flea markets in England, Sophie Bold questions from Doug I wonder if Sophie will be like "this is close enough to therapy" Thaís's dad really doesn't like Patrick, huh? Dear god, why don't Nicole and Mahmoud give up? Ashley, you already are in an unhealthy relationship Gino made bugs fight...sure GATOR I did not think Jasmine was going to bring up beauty pageant stuff now Thaís's dad is not happy Wow Sophie and Rob realized they needed more

I stole a lot of these. Use mall maps for dungeons Give out physical items if you can Incorporate letters from home Have your players help plan the world Solicit feedback from your players Take time to figure out if you are striking the right balance between improvising and planning for you Don't be afraid to steal elements of other media you like for your campaign Encourage players to take notes Work with players to develop their backstories Suggest players keep diary entries for their characters after each session Call out metagaming when you see it Talk to players if they are dominating play Establish rules about tech Brainstorm with fellow DMs Consider having a narrower scope to start (Prompt by me) "Dungeon Master's Screen" by sdobie .

I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and then waited for my preferred ul

I stole a fair few of these! Offer to help your DM with things (like scheduling) Take all DM questions seriously Avoid metagaming (I know it's difficult) Take personality quizzes for your character--it'll help you roleplay Figure out how you pay attention best (this might mean taking notes or doodling or putting your phone on airplane mode) Try to think about your turn in battle before it gets to you Tell your DM what you like in a campaign Find ways to remind yourself to roleplay (for me, this was sometimes a phrase or adding in a quirk that can help give you something to fall back on) If you have the means, draw out your character (or ask a friend to do it) Think about what mementos your character would have of home and what trinkets they'd pick up along the way Think about what hobbies your character has Look up character questions to ask yourself about your character Consider writing diary entries for your character after every session Make sure your character has flaws

DO NOT READ IF YOU WISH TO PLAY! So I wrote a list of  15 one shot ideas , then  narrowed it to five , and then narrowed it to three and did a pageish on each one (here is the  oneish page on "A new family member from an estranged side of the family has shown up at the door, asking for aid" ). Now I've selected my favorite (which I admittedly knew from the beginning). You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here , read part 4 here , and read part 5 here but I've copied it and built on it in this post.  The Job (in short) : Deal with Frid Rosewind and/or what he has brought with him. The Locations : Windsport: The Rosewinds founded Windsport on the Tra Sea on the east side of the island nation of Cuilinn Originally the Rosewinds made money on a brisk shipping business, but as more competition moved into this lucrative port, their funds have gone down. While they are still wealthy, they are far from the moguls they once were and live in a somewhat
