@kyleshevlin Note: I'm not diagnosed with anything, just notice my brain seems to be similar to ADHD/neurodivergent folks sometimes.
I can have good days at work, and I can really dig into what I'm doing. But I have _so many_ interests that sometimes work is just so boring and hard to get started. I was kicking off an epic, and day 1 I was so disinterested in it I worked on a completely different feature.
Thank you for sharing your experience, wish there was an answer
@anildash I really hope kino was able to get out, I really liked that character.
Ending today at 15,044 words. Gonna need to think about what happens next a bit to keep my momentum.
@PDXBOTC 100%, it's a small thing but it is so nice.
Hi, I'm Lindsay! I'm a software engineer and mom. Online I typically am talking about something related to web development (I do functional programming at work with Elm and Haskell) and whatever project I'm working on.
Most recently, I've been digging more into game design. I've been working on my own card game called "Star Commander" for some years, and it's recently reached a very presentable state. Also into Magic, D&D, and other games.
Also do a lot of writing. Hello!
Got to 13,512 words! May have sped up the plot a bit too much, hopefully I can bring it back to the right speed tomorrow. Need to pace things to make the goal.
@ben Feeling a bit stressed out for Oregon too, here's hoping for the best for both of us 🤞
Resharing for Mastodon folks, this week's edition of the Elm Weekly Newsletter:

@robinheghan sci fi about a family getting caught up in political intrigue between major interstellar governments.
Got to 11,232 words, I think I'll wrap up today's goal before bed.
@ben This is a side project that initially formed during high school, and kicked off in 2010. Over 12 years in the making, I am so excited right now!
Ordered a new copy of Star Commander, estimated arrival looks like it might be a Christmas present to myself. Looking forward to unboxing my own card game!
@PDXBOTC sci fi novel based in the world of Star Commander, a family on board a freighter gets pulled into a political situation between the major governments.
And there we go, rounded out the scene to 10,026!
Almost made it! Got to 9,979 words, and should have some more time before I go to sleep. Back on track!
@kyleshevlin @sia I’ve got a secondary account on twit.social, I just don’t want to migrate and they seem to be having trouble too. Guessing it’s a general growing pain right now, but I also am liking the slower pace.
