 I’ve lurked in the Transformers fandom soup for a long time, but only recently was I bit by a rabid plot-bunny. Not only did I have a lot of fun worldbuilding the planet Cybertron with friends…

… I decided I wasn’t managing to do a map in 3D that captured everything I wanted, so I bought a white beach ball and some dry erase markers to draw a globe map.

Verdict: I think it did work, but man, I wish it was a little easier to erase and redo. There was still staining on the beach ball even after I wiped it with alcohol…

 Should I crosspost my finished and/or in-progress fics here? And if so, does one typically put multichapter fics into different posts and just link them to each other? Is there a way to sort them? How do people usually tag these things for organization??

I now have THREE WHOLE BOOKS about the Norman Conquest checked out, all requested because Wikipedia wasn't giving me enough information about the social changes that happened during the occupation. This isn't even the story idea I've been investing the most effort into. What am I doing.

Currently reading:
The Norman Conquest: a new introduction by Richard Huscroft (pretty good so far)

To read:
The Norman Conquest: England after William the Conqueror by Hugh M. Thomas

I'm still not sure exactly how I'll be using this, and I'm a skittish lass, so for NOW I'll probably be somewhat conservative re: who I grant access to my journal (page?) - probably just people I know already! Thank you all [kissy face emoji]
