One of my pieces for the @polarlightszine featuring Arctic Terns - the birds that have the longest migration route, going from one pole to the other and back in a year. Impressive little guys!
You can get this gorgeous anthology about the Arctic and Antarctic life on https://polarlightszine.itch.io/ and support a good cause 💙
I write every single day. It's the only thing keeping me sane. But I'm losing my english skills. I forget spellings, and I get confused in the right usage of punctuation and figures of speech. What do I do for practice?

Last song: Heroes Forge Ahead (FF14: Endwalker soundtrack. first 6:22 minutes of this video)
Favorite color: Honestly, varies every day. Right now, I'm feeling a peacock blue, or turquoise.
Currently watching: Dunmeshi and Bad Batch, though I'm not into TV series like I used to be. I often forget to watch the latest episodes.
Sweet/Savory/Spicy: It used to be sweet, but in the past year or so, my taste buds have refused to accept spicy foods. I've even had to forgo some of my favorite chips flavors (goodbye, Lays magic masala. You were there for me when no one else was). I think I've lost my Indian badge. I'm more of a cheese, corn, paneer, and mushroom guy now. Is that 'savory'?
Relationship status: Single.
Current Obsession: My fanfic series, the Records of Heroes Past. It follows the PC cast of Star Wars: the Old Republic, plus additional OCs I added in. It retells the stories, and expands on them. I'm currently at Book 5: Limbo, which focuses on Lana Beniko during the 5 year timeskip after KOTFE Chapter 1. I've put my heart and soul into that garbage, and I can't stop now. Once it's done, I might quit everything.
Last thing I googled: Koth Melan. He's a character from Shadows of the Empire; a Bothan spymaster who is instrumental in securing the Death Star II intel for the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
Last song: Resist and Disorder by Rezodrone/The Cartisian Duelists. I was feeling pretty frustrated earlier, and I just needed something angry and defiant to listen to.
Favorite color: On any given day I could answer green, blue, or silver/gray. I'd probably say green, considering my account name, but I also really like the other two. Green is the best lightsaber color though.
Currently watching: Shogun on FX. It's very intense (and at times downright horrifying/disturbing - looking at you episode 1), but so, so well made.
Sweet/Savory/Spicy: Savory. Too much sweet is no good, and I cannot handle spicy at all.
Relationship status: Single and almost ready to almost mingle.
Current Obsession: Other than my story, Rogue, which occupies at least half my brain space at all times, I'm finding myself excited for a Star Wars 5E campaign I'm going to be doing with friends soon! It's gonna take place after the established canon in a fractured galaxy, kinda like the days of SWTOR but with more than just the Republic/Empire. I'm going to be playing a Kaleesh Guardian (Paladin in D&D rules) named Qaal who's taking his first steps into a larger galaxy as he seeks to understand his connection to the Force and where his place is in it. I told my DM that I didn't want to start with everything figured out as a Jedi, so he's only got a spear right now, and he'll be wrestling with the lure of the dark side vs. a call to the light. I'm excited though for when he'll eventually build his lightsaber, and to see who he'll wind up being.
Last thing I googled: "Dwarf name generator." Some minor character in Rogue needed a name. He will likely never appear again beyond this chapter.
Record of Heroes Past
Book 5. Book of Ciphers: Limbo
Summary:
A time of great uncertainty is approaching.
Darth Marr and Vajra Devarath—the Hero of Tython—have disappeared, following a decisive ambush by the mysterious Zakuul, a third Galactic superpower. While Kairegane Rooks—the Empire's Wrath—scrambles to save everyone from the new threat, Lana Beniko abandons everything in her race to save her husband. But her search may not be as smooth as she'd hoped...
This book is set in the five-year timeskip between Chapters 1 and 3 of KOTFE
I made my own OC meme! :] The goal is to encourage people to think about their characters' word choices in written/spoken dialogue. Blank under the cut!
(the second one is transparent)
