chocolatepotBeen away so long DW logged me out again ...
Not much going on IRL, as ever. I've been allowed to do an exhibition of quilts - only to be up in December, so a lot of work for little gain, but it's better than nothing. Hopefully it gets good visitation to prove that non-painting stuff in the collection is valuable. 🙄 Though unfortunately I think TPTB already do think forms of folk art other than paintings are valuable, so this wouldn't make them do a turnaround on historic artifacts in general.
The fashion/textile curator position I applied for in San Francisco got canceled. Not fair! I didn't want to move to the west coast, but still - second time this has happened. I would like to be interviewed. I think I could kill an interview.
I finished a knitting project!!! Really like this yarn. I bought it at a trunk show locally and so I get to feel a little extra smug about it because I got it straight from the indie dyer.
I spent all of October going crazy about OFMD season 2 (and what a season it was) and writing fics for OFMD Kinktober (as well as a couple for Whumptober) - most of them not actually pornfic. Now I'm working on a handful of prompts for a January AU challenge, trying to make them solid fics in and of themselves by starting so far ahead rather than making 1-2k pieces that just dip a bit into the AU aspect as I usually do. The first one is set in the world of turn of the century music hall female impersonators, as you do. There's also a Ladyhawke AU all plotted out. An epistolary fic based on an AITA post. Several others that are just in the idea stage right now.
