November 2014 Roundup

[ellenmillion]

Have you missed some of my creative updates over the last month? I'm doing monthly roundups to try to keep some sense in the chaos!

My big November goal, because I wasn't nuts enough to try NaNoWriMo, was to complete 30 pieces of short fiction or meta-fiction for Torn World. I made it with time to spare! It was a busy month (surprise), with a few holidays, a brief and mild headcold, and some fun social things. I did PopCon, which was a very pleasant surprise, and did an interview for the Sun Star (which won't be out for months!). Oh, and I fulfilled my entire Kickstarter project!

Artwork

I did an astonishing four pieces for Portrait Adoption. I am now one away from my goal of 6 for the year.

Evervale and Shaper's Nightmare went up at River Twine. (ElfQuest fanart)

Five pieces that I did for InkTober were posted at Torn World: Fleita and Arremina, Squiggle Mouse, Weed-Eater, Deathfin, and (Tiny) Giant Sea Turtle. Also, Nerveleaf, and two Geographic Sciencecards: The Scenic North and Mojeveterk.



Writing

Smaller is a flashfiction reserved for subscribers at Torn World. ($5 to sponsor)

Scheming a Friendship was written for Thimbleful Thursday. (Also Torn World)

Bai Knows Better is a mirror poem to Ressa Knows - both are reserved for subscribers at Torn World (they can be sponsored for $5 apiece). Patreon patrons got a copy of both of these.

Give Up the Ghost was also a Thimbleful Thursday, set in none of my established worlds... but it's a tempting setting.

The Thornwall at River Twine (ElfQuest fanfiction).

Other

I shared a table at PopCon, which was great fun and quite successful.

I fulfilled my entire Kickstarter! WOO! The comments I've gotten from happy recipients are absolutely wonderful.

I updated my Amazon store, and my Etsy store.

I made my 30/30 NotNoWriMo goal.

Now? I'm ready for a month off.

I was wondering what you were doing online, when it is the second! :) We'll see you on the other side...when you come back to all the comments and stuff. Great job on all the goals reached, I have to look at my yearly goals and see what all is going on there...
Have a great month off, I'll miss you and Guppy!
