s2 roadmap

well i'm not entirely sure what the point of making this post is given that i achieved........ nothing on my plans for the first half of 2020. but i am not a QUITTER!!! so here are my perhaps foolish plans for the remainder of 2020:

OCTOBER

• for the rest of the month i'll probably just keep fucking around in gdocs writing more tennisfic that will never see the light of ao3... i have three main wips that i want to realise (akaryo brazil arc but they're in sydney // 3 times yukimura [redacted] // rikkai x yukimura [redacted 2]) atm but i come up with new agendas and ideas daily so who knows lol. i've mostly come to terms with like never getting ao3 validation ever again but my passion for tennis alone is genuinely enough to sustain me rn so i feel like it's okay :) i'm very happy just putting my visions into words
• i might clean up one of the shorter tennisfics i've already written and post it on sulfate? just for rights. maybe tinhetfic

NOVEMBER

• revival zero (dream tenipuri au, jaemren(? not totally committed yet), to be posted on pyrophane) - my main passion project, it does not yet have a plot, structure, main agenda or set title (i only know that i really want to use something related to yugioh to enable my grand tennis=yugioh thesis) but i'm super determined to see this through!!! for my target audience of like 1.5. so far it's just a random collection of my favourite tenipuri scenes but dreamified but at least i'm having fun. i expect this will end up around 10k and it's currently at 2.5k so i think giving myself a month to finish will be enough

DECEMBER

• yuletide - hopefully i won't have to default this year :'( but given how little else i have going on in terms of wips i don't really have an excuse

that's literally all lol. i've basically given up on all my other nct wips because i don't think they're any good, we'll see whether haikyuu inspiration strikes again before the end of the year... i'm also undergoing my biannual style crisis so ::head in hands:: i'll get through this okay though, not to sound like a cliche but sports anime literally healed my relationship to creativity so i'm still feeling positive about my abilities!!
