As it would turn out, I +haven't! –– + +!["abandon": cease to support or look after (someone); desert.](static/media/07-abandon.png) + +Okay, I *guess* I've abandoned the blog a little. But the second definition +there certainly hasn't happened: + +!["abandon": give up completely (a course of action, a practice, or a way of thinking).](static/media/07-abandon-2.png) + +I've actually been looking for things to write about. I've had a little bit of +trouble since I mostly haven't made very many things in the last couple weeks +(wait, *three* weeks..? Sorry - really.), but I've made a few things now, so I +can share those. + +## A Discord game + +I wrote a bit of code for a Discord multi-user-dungeon/domain/what*ever*. It's +almost definitely not going to go anywhere, but it's the first time I've really +written any code in the last week or so, and I'd rathre not get rusty. + +The test server isn't public right now, since that's all it is - a bot testing +server. It's also kind of a collaboration with a friend of mine[\*]; we haven't +really figured out any of the story. At all. At *all.* We also have basically +no experience with games like this, either (or really any multiplayer games), +so this is really just a programming project for me, haha. + +(\* His online username changes every half-week or so, but right now it's +[lightblub][lightblub]. If you look for the user "alex" in +[this GitHub organization][coolandgood] that he and I are a part of, you can probably find him. Hey, I'm not giving you instructions on how to stalk his +every move, just a means of seeing all the cool projects he's worked on! +`SMILEY_FACE.`) + +## Some art + +I did a little bit of art? Not near as much as I wanted to, though. + +![SPOILERS!!!! it's a bowl of vegetables and/or vegetables.](static/media/07-my-art-is-deteriorating.png) + +This drawing's supposedly supposed to be a picture of a bowl of fruits and +vegetables and whatnot. Everybody else was drawing things without using any +line art at all, so, I guess I tried to do something, too? It's not +particularly good though! + +## [The story](posts/4-wrote-a-thing.html) + +I didn't work on the story. + +I know - disappointing. I still *like* the idea for the story, but I didn't go +far with it. That's kind of been how most of my stories go - and many of my +non-writing related projects too, I guess. Maybe I'll pick up with the idea +again eventually, since writing stories still sounds like a really cool idea to +me, but I haven't really felt like it lately. The trouble is that I haven't +gotten any ideas, any spurts of, "oh, *this* would work" - but that kind of +stems from the fact that I didn't really bother thinking about it much. So! +Again, maybe I'll work on it again eventually. When I feel like writing, I'll +have a (bare beginning of a) story to go to, so, who knows? I'll probably see +more of it, eventually. + +## So. + +Such ends the Quick(tm) update. + +Since I know there's thousands of you readers dying to comment on my posts, +it really doesn't take any effort - you can sign up for Disqus right through +the commenting form at the bottom of all post pages, and that's not even +*necessary*, since you can also use Google or Twitter just like that! +(Or, ugh, Facebook.) + +(You lost the game.
