Entry: The Call

Whew, I'm squeaking in pretty last minute here! A friend gave me the heads up about this a few days ago but I've been writing frantically after work when I can so all of the longer stuff I've been trying for other categories is still unfinished. I'll post it if I finish in time.

I hope I formatted everything correctly, but please let me know if anything needs to be changed!

I have not written any long-form stuff in SO LONG. Writer's block totally pulled the rug out from under me, but hey, at least I got it finished! I count that as a success!

Please be gentle with me, I get stressed and anxious easily, and don't always pick up on meanings or social cues. I'm very detail-oriented & like to have all information possible before proceeding.

Entry: The Mist and the Jams

Phew, got it all done. Hopefully there's no issues!!

The Windy Words one was the first story I wrote, but I struggled with it hard.

The Freestyle was something I whipped up today! Wanted to write snippets or a 'documentary' of my MistJam experiences and the extra lore I have come up thanks to it. It ended up with the highest word count xD

Mountebank fiddles with his collar, straightening something that doesn’t need adjusting. “I do apologize for my disappearance towards the middle there. I needed some rest.” The lie comes easily enough, and he avoids drawing attention to something that he wants to keep hidden. He has not the slightest idea what you saw, what I showed you, and yet he assumes that he is being sneaky here. He’s not.

“Anyways, this is my final story. It’s in the form of a journal and to be honest with you,” he again fidgets with things already perfect, “I have no idea what it is.”

Owlcat Journal
(Journal get!)

“I do hope you have enjoyed our time together, although it was much more brief than I wanted.”

And with a flick of his tail, he is gone.
