Admin post: Community check-in October 2025

[mific]

It's just after the end of October, and we'd love to have you check in and chat with us. How have things been with you since August? (having just realised we haven't had a check-in post for a while, oops, sorry!)

Did you sign up for or take part in any fandom activities in the past three months, or have you been working on any personal art projects? Are you looking at a bunch of end-of-year deadlines? 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. There's probably been a lot happening since it's been a while since we did this, so feel free just to give us the highlights!

Apart from Drawtober, I've been coordinating a fandom calendar project which will be posted in December! I did two art pieces for that and am currently working on a concept for the third one.

I did two stand alone art pieces too:

two cdrama guys

Now my November is pretty full: I picked up a pinch hit for doodle4doodle and the Nirvana in Fire Exchange has claiming happening in the first week - very exciting!

You did so much this month! And YAYYY for upcoming NiF art! Looking forward to seeing the results. :D :D

Also, I'm looking forward to our card exchange this year. As usual, I hope to start early. I'm always inspired by how productive you are. <333

So glad to hear we are doing the card exchange again and re NiF I am so happy the previous mod (who wasn't able to mod last year) came back and ensured the exchange is running again!

Love the cdrama guys. The first one especially has great values, and your usual lovely shiny hair!
