Snowflake Challenge: A warmly light quaint street of shops at night with heavy snow falling.

I'm a budding game developer addicted to learning and tinkering with new things, so destined to be an eternal n00b. I used to be mostly into computer programming, but now branching out into art and music.

Lately I'm not much into fanfiction, but I love reading theories, explanations, classifications and such. My favourite fandom is currently The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir.

I enjoy well-structured challenges which are short enough for my busted attention span. The Snowflake Challenge may provide food for thought, and an occasion to interact with interesting people. Also, a way to get back into the journaling habit.

Current Mood: hopeful

Good luck getting back into the journal habit, as you put it. Seems like it's what most of us are hoping for!

Thank you! I do keep a private journal locally (on Obsidian), but my DW has been collecting dust for ages... Yes, January is a great time to restart!

Eternal n00b is such a precise descriptor and it fits my always trying new things- never perfecting said thing before moving on to new new thing. 😭😭😭

WHY ARE WE LIKE THIS?!?! 🤣🤣

Oh but at least we get our dopamine not just from scrolling and consuming but also from learning and creating!

I'm going to learn how to embroider just so I can put that on a pillow. Or, at least I'll start the pillow. But, it's the thought that counts, yes? 😍😍

I know there's a bunch more Locked Tomb folks roaming around on DW. Best of luck kickstarting the journalling habit.

Thank you! Well, the "Locked Tomb" interest search shows just a couple of active users and no communities, so it doesn't seem to be a popular fandom on DW, but who knows what will come up :)

UPDATE: I'm stupid and thought that "the" in "the locked tomb" is not essential for the interest search, but apparently it it. With "the", it looks much better :)

A lot of folks don't really keep their Interest tags up to date , but I'm glad you found some :)

A useful combination.

You might enjoy the Meta communities or the Fannish 50 post for finding things to read.
