Writing and programming are surprisingly similar
It's hard to believe that a quarter of this year has gone by, yet here we are, having April Fool's Day 2021. Time has been speeding recently, or maybe I just haven't surfaced from my drowning-in-coursework periods as often as before. In any case, I've got a lot to talk about, so this'll be a long post.
If another Finn comes across this post today, I wish you a fantastic Independence Day! I am glad to announce that my second Flash Fiction Month collection, The Person At The Door, is now released! You can download it from Smashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1057650 I will begin working on the next collection soon, but given all the … Continue reading The Person At The Door – out now!
As promised, I got something playable out of my Game Off 2020 project, Project Moonshot! Yay!
As you know if you have followed my posts, I have released two games on itch.io recently, MathQuiz and Against Procrastination. I don't have much to say about them now that they've been out for a while, but they are noteworthy enough to be mentioned here. The bigger thing, however, is my first book release, made under the pen name N. WS. Jokela!
It is time for yet another announcement! My Twine project, named Against Procrastination, is finally ready, tested by two testers whom I recruited locally and now available on itch.io!
Anyway, a sequence of events involving forgetting to back my current Twine project into cloud before rebooting my laptop from Ubuntu to Windows for an extended period of time ended up leading me to finally looking into the game my boyfriend and I made two years ago for our programming course, MathQuiz. After a night and a morning's work with things, I got it released on itch.io!
Although I had planned not to participate in Prose-ject this June, I found resisting the temptation to join impossible, so I will be catching up now. However, due to the state of DeviantArt, I have chosen to post my Prose-ject 2020 stories here on WordPress as I have nowhere else to post them.
I'm writing an overall art update with this case discussed on DeviantArt at the oment, but I figured that since I have my Greenfield data here, I'll post here first
I decided that, as one of my final deeds at art this year, I will finally translate the poem that got published this spring. Luckily, it was not very long, so I could do it in one sitting. Both the original Finnish version and the translated English version are now on my DeviantArt page. I've … Continue reading My published poem: translated!
Alrighty, my copy of Damon Wakes's Ten Little Astronauts has arrived at my place in Finland and it looks fantastic! :D I can't wait to start reading it during my Christmas holiday! AND HERE IT IS!!! That record is so cool and I have no words for telling how much I love that cover art! … Continue reading The arrival of Ten Little Astronaus
