I am taking a little break. Got a holiday at work on Friday the 3rd (love a “non-christian” workplace that still somehow manages to only observe christian holidays) and took off an extra day to keep myself from working too hard and burning out. I need the rest slightly more than I need the money, so I’m going all-in and am going to spend my time doing some fun little video editing projects. Maybe I’ll share some of that eventually, but right now I’ve carefully avoided crossing the streams between my writing and meatspace identity and my digital identity in Final Fantasy 14, and the videos would eventually just give it away, I’m sure. Or at least provide enough of a trail that someone could follow it from one place to another. Right now, I appreciate the distance even if I also desperately want to show off the cool work I’ve been doing. I’m not amazing at the video editing thing yet, but I’m getting pretty good at cutting and pasting things into an interesting and cohesive shape, such that some people don’t even realize I’ve done it. Which is most of editing footage. Special effects are their own thing. Which I will spend my days off learning about! It’ll be fun!
