A friend of mine recently expressed interest in writing a story with me, which gave me the drive I needed to pick back up a project I abandoned a few years back. It's a website for writing a story one block at a time, branching off wherever you feel like you'd want to move the story. I've also used it as an excuse to play with Claude a bit and fiddle with ideas.

Away from the keyboard, I've picked up acrylic painting. I signed up for classes and have been enamored with it, so I purchased the most basic of supplies to paint at home. It's been an absolute blast, and there's a sort of thrill to being bad at something and still finding joy in it.
