Free Write 15

I really don't want to write right now, in all honesty. I haven't felt that way in a very long time, but for reasons that I've talked with people enough for one day, I honestly just do not want to write today. But I know that if I don't I'll regret it, so at the very least I can do a free write and just get some words down.

I've been doing pretty good with my fiction to real talk ratio. I'm ahead on fiction, even with this real talk now, which is good and not something I manage to pull off very often. It's usually a tipping back and forth game, so the fact that I'm ahead right now makes me feel a little bit better. It takes a lot more effort than I originally anticipated to be able to make that kind of ratio work, though the fact that I've been finding new ways to get prompts and actually been running out of real world things I wanted to talk about helps as well.

Though it's been incredibly slow, I've been enjoying making my knife. I like creating something with my hands, and being able to actually see the progress that I'm making is incredible. I'm thinking that once I finish this I'll have to work on some similar stuff as well. Maybe make some more knives, or get back to making some instruments. I'm not sure at the moment, but it's definitely something I'm going to have to look into and consider.

I've been bouncing around between video games a lot the last month or so, struggling to find something that I really want to stick with. As excited as I am for the games that are going to come out in the next month or two, I feel like that's going to continue to be a problem because of just how many games I want to play. By the second week of February, there are going to be about six games out that I want to play, and many of them are going to be long and demand excessive amounts of my time. I thoroughly want to play them all, but I have a feeling that's going to be problematic. Especially because I want to try and push myself into working on other things. I'm not sure how many games I'm going to be playing at all in the coming months.
