Admin Post: Community Check-In for May 2025

[goss]

Today's the last day of May, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you this past month?

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in May, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you currently trying to meet a deadline? Feel free to share upcoming art challenges that have got you excited, any frustrations you've been experiencing, possible goals for the next month, and so on.

Reminder: A Round-Up for the MerMay & Marine Challenge will be posted soon, and a new monthly challenge will be issued later this week. :)

I’m gearing up to try making an illustrated fanfic book. I bound a fanfic into a physical book form and now I’m learning how to make a cover, then I’ll basically go doodle in the margins. Seems like a fun idea for the summer.

That is so cool!

I’m telling myself to take as long as I feel like because there’s no deadline for it and it’s just for fun. So we’ll see

Great idea!

Oh hi there, fellow bookbinder! I haven‘t done many projects yet, but best of luck with yours!

Thank you! I started small for practice and now I’m itching for a larger project.
