So much art and I am still not even half finished with what I want to make for it. I have a lot of basic stuff done for it writing wise but There is also so, so much left to do.<br /><br />It's still posting little bits of weird stories. Which it will always do.<br /><br />Then there is a much older project that is starting to demand attention again. It's in the style of choose your own adventure but as a website not a book. Many, many links.<br /><br />Unfortunately this story/project was put on hold because it was the victim of a terrible coworker that threw away my personal notepad and lied to my face about it. They didn't like that I had it and took it out of my bag and, I assume, tossed it into the secured document shredder box because that was the one place I couldn't look or get into. I wish them the worst and I'm pretty sure their own actions are going to catch up to them.<br /><br />Stress like that, loosing wips, is why I can get writers and artist blocks.<br /><br />But this one is wanting attention so I'll be trying to write down what I can for it. Because of all the twists and turns it takes... It gets overwhelming. The hard part is to get down the main path again. Then I can start on all the looping paths and options.<br /><br />This is going to be huge to make as a site because there will have to be chapters so that spoilers are harder to happen on accident. One could literally happen in chapter one. But that future chapter is so far away... and it was one of the few parts I had fully written and curse that coworker. <br /><br />The problem is after that point.<br /><br />It wasn't the full end. It was setting up for the next book. I can't not tell you how much this story had grabbed me all thoughs years ago. Full Stories in my brain and the note pad and then, all gone.<br /><br />But! it's running again so maybe this time I'll get it written down in a safe place.<br /><br />For other project updates...<br /><br />Nyt Goth is going well. Video editing is the worst. Video editing on my phone every single day and trying to add the tarot card descriptions in the notes burned me to a crisp. Trying to work out a better way to film and edit but it's slow.<br /><br />I am trying to add other things to the feed but that too is slow and will need editing. Unfortunately everything is trying to push AI and I do not use AI. AI just copies others and I don't want that. Maybe one day I'll get an iPad and then that might make things a little less finagaly when editing. <br /><br />Only time will tell. Til next update!<br></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Phyr Studios is on Patreon]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.z2z2z.com/blog/phyr-studios-is-on-patreon]]></link><comments><![CDATA[http://www.z2z2z.com/blog/phyr-studios-is-on-patreon#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Tue, 19 Jun 2018 19:32:43 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.z2z2z.com/blog/phyr-studios-is-on-patreon</guid><description><![CDATA[Everything NEW will be going here first!Art, Blogs, photos and other writing stuff...
