The discord has opened for this year's main voiceteam round. I’m on team Wild Things!

I’ve previously made lists of personal goals for the event, and for battleship too, and I really like having something to work towards alongside the usual challenges, so I’m doing it again ^^ Some of the goals I previously didn’t manage have returned.

ONE: Record as many podfics about robots/androids/AIs/cyborgs as possible
Originally, I thought to aim for 100% of my pods to be robot related, but I don’t know how possible that is, so it will still be fun to aim for as high a percentage as possible. I’ll work it out at the end and see how high I got :P

TWO: Record more femslash
I’d love to increase my F/F output by any amount. Getting it to half the amount of my Gen works would be amazing, but incredibly ambitious—64 new femslash works? Definitely possible, but probably not before the end of May 😆 So to go with something more doable, I’ll aim for having 69 femslash pods by the end of Voiceteam. Hey, it’s a nice number!

THREE: Write something
I don’t write much these days, and many Voiceteam challenges lend themselves to writing something new, so this is just a little extra push to myself to give it a go.

Hi everyone,

There’s a wonderfully educational new Pokémon Botany video out from Matthew Gaston!

Other Stuff
I'm hoping to put together a March and April event roundup soon, but I’ve hardly worked on anything recently. That will change once Voiceteam starts, but it’s interesting how my fannish energy seems to go up and down so much these days and is and usually wholly based on what events I’m participating in at the time.

Tomorrow I'm being interviewed as part of a research study on ASMR. I did an online survey a while ago and was invited to be interviewed based on my answers, so that's exciting. The study is looking at whether a Highly Sensitive Person (something I hadn't heard of before the survey, but is apparently a Thing and a thing that I might also be) is more likely to consume ASMR content and why, which is awesome. I can already foresee me talking their ear off now I get the chance to share my ASMR thoughts with someonne, especially with how it's changed since developing tinnitus, and I can't wait to read their findings once they're available!

I hope everyone is doing well 🧡🧡🧡

I'm so excited to share my mushroom growing kits that arrived yesterday!

Unfortunately, flu and forgetfulness means I'm late with what I'd hoped would be monthly event roundup posts, but that's okay - I can combine January and February in one post, then I'm all caught up! Maybe, by December, I'll be better at keeping a regular schedule for these XD

Also unfortunately, DW is absolute ass at formatting anything with multiple cuts, font styles, or images, so to avoid pulling my hair our for hours, I'm not going to style this like my last roundup post as I hoped (where you can open the cuts of events you might be interested in) and instead put everything under one cut. If DW continues to fight me, please forgive any spacing issues you may encounter.

Events covered are: Voice Team Mystery Box, Fandom Trees, Seasons of Drabbles, Candy Hearts Exchange, Three is Not a Crowd, Fresh Femslash Salad Bar, Femslash February Podfic Edition, and Perfect World Shipping Week. I also ramble about upcoming events at the end.
