Hey, everyone. I was
inspired to do a basic update entry and talk about some stuff.
Sorry I haven't
updated too much. I got busy again. You see, I have two jobs now. At one job, I
work before and after school with elementary aged kids (so I can be inspired
for what to write about and what kids should get out of a story). At another
job, I work at a store as mostly a cashier (so I can get extra money plus a
discount on possible props for the picture stories).
So, in a way, I am
working on the thread. I just haven't gotten much published. (I even keep a
clipboard with me and I write down KATVP ideas in my notebook at my school
job.)
So here I am,
blabbering words during a writing crave. Also, scrambling to figure out which
entries I need to catch y'all up on. (I've done some virtual pet care such as a
few Tamagotchi mini raisings, but only in July and August. I kinda slipped out
of the care routine in September when I got my second job. Just haven't been up
to it…)
I think I'll leave
this entry on the blog first so I can tell y'all what's going on, but add it to
the "timeline" later. (Because I know y'all just like to skip to
what's most recently posted on the blog in general.)
Let me talk a little
bit about my plans for this blog and how I'll be posting content.
I'm still doing the
"timeline" on this blog! Where I post AAAAAALLLL the updates IN ORDER
for you to read and follow as I review them.
BUT, I know that's
going to take a LOOOOONG time to finish. So I've been popping up with some
ideas to keep content regular and fresh and to keep it entertaining while I try
to get through the old dry stuff.
Behind the scenes,
I've been polishing up the old "Kat and the Webkinz" updates,
starting with the ol' picture stories. So if you want to click around and find
those stories and read them, I've been re-placing the pictures in and making
them readable. (What a great time to catch up on the picture story storylines
if you never read KATW back in the day!)
I'll also be posting
new picture stories behind the scenes. Old "future updates" that I
was going to post to KATW back when it was on Webkinz Insider, new sketches for
the v-pets to act out, and more! Then I'll add them to the "timeline"
when I've finished polishing and reviewing all the old updates and I make it to
this point.
I figured this would
be a good resolution--post new updates now, add to the timeline later. So those
who want the new content can get it NOW (but the timeline is still going on for
new readers to follow in the future!).
I just simply don't
have time to put all the fun adventures of the virtual pets on hold, especially
when I have to move out of my childhood home in like less than two years and
half these "future KATW updates" take place in it. I want to tell the
stories of my home before I have to move, plus I'd be too excited about them
and want to post them asap.
Also…I just miss
making the picture stories! The Webkinz and their stuffed animal friends had
such great adventures. And now, Tamagotchis and other toys (such as a cast of
Barbies) get to join the crew! Plus there's a cartoon side to it now. The
possibilities are beyond endless!
So…you could either
wait for the timeline to develop, watch new picture stories come out behind the
scenes, or both!
There's just so much
to do with this blog and I have so little time having two jobs. But I am
working SO HARD to find a balance! I already think about this blog ALL THE
TIME!!!!
I might actually
re-start and re-do the timeline because I found some content older than
"The Squid V5 Log", so numbers maybe a little wacko soon. But I'll
post all the past, finish KATW's progress, then I'll loop back to the first few
KATVP stories to symbolize the present. Then get onto the future!!!
Don't worry it'll
all make sense when it's done! Please bear with my mess. The stories will be
great, I promise!!!!!!
OKAY I KNOW MY
THOUGHTS ARE EVERYWHERE BUT IT'S TIME FOR ME TO GO BACK TO WORK NOW. OKAY, I
LOVE YOU GUYS; I HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON! <3
