THE VOID x BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA

If deadbeat Ray can rescue his wife from a vicious gang, she’ll have to take him back, right?

The only problem: He has no idea what he’s doing

...and cops trying to pin the abduction on him

Oh, the demons

Them too

It was only when I moved across the country that I realised that the name we had for these growing up was ridiculous.

A Jelly-Bag

[Hillbilly Highlander @HillbillyHighl1]

For my information, what do YOU call this thing? I grew up calling it a toboggan, or just a 'boggan. I've heard it called a knit cap and we called the ones we were issued a "watch cap" in the U.S. Navy. Whatever you call it, I love 'em.

Had a nasty, generic, off-brand winter cold for the last week and a half that really knocked me out

Feeling better just in time for the arrival of the last of my beta readers' comments on my current MS

Nice!

@jmavants Such a fantastic feeling when that happens!

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@alioop326 Yeah, that caught me at first too - but it doesn't really matter, joining one server doesn't exclude you from the others. The only real perk is if it's a small server it shouldn't slow down too much

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

Are you over there yet?

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

I cracked and wrote the opening to a new WIP that's been bouncing around in my brain for a while

It's only a paragraph but I can already feel the shape of what's to come and who the MC is

Very happy right now!

@vickielanwrites You can join any mastodon server and still be a part of the overall writing community. Joining one server doesn't exclude you from the others :)

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@jmavants I'll keep an eye out for you over there 😉

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@jmavants One great thing they have is you can follow hashtags, so I followed #WritingCommunity and anyone posting with the tag shows up on my feed and I can follow people from there.

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@jmavants You don't have to join any particular server. It's a bit confusing at first but you pick any you like and then you can follow anyone over the whole system (the fediverse they call it).

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@MegaeraL If you want to find your twitter followers/mutuals/etc over there, you can use this tool: https://t.co/QdI70h83os as long as they have their Mastodon handles in their bio

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@MegaeraL There is, but you can join any server (eg: a locality-based one) and still interact with the writing one (or any other). You can follow #WritingCommunity directly and any posts using the tag will show up on your home feed

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

A tip for anyone moving elsewhere:

Put your new handle/link etc in your Twitter bio

It helps people find you again with tools like: https://t.co/QdI70h83os

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@mytholder Very handy! - I'll wait a bit for the rush to be over :)

[Barry Curran @BarryCurranCork]

@jmavants In fairness, the platform might be worth checking out. The writing community seems lovely
