I'm a little bit limited by schoolwork this month, but I'd love to be able to participate in a community writing challenge. I think I'm going to try and aim for 10k words on my ongoing fic for NaNo; here's hoping I can make it!

CHAPTER FOUR: Arceus Closes a Door, and Opens A Portal The two trainers walked through the unlit corridor until they could no longer see, at which point Florence stopped. Connor nearly walked into her outstretched right arm; she held her piplup firmly with her left. “Sorry,” he whispered...

Well, hi! Thanks for checking this out, even if that was by obligation. Right off the bat, I'm in a funny position here: until reading this I had no idea you could submit other people's stories to Catnip Circle, and there's a reason I hadn't submitted it myself, because I would really rather...

CHAPTER THREE: The Forest Connor’s time in Floaroma wasn’t particularly happy, but that didn’t mean he wanted to leave. In fact, he found himself a little sad that his time in town didn’t let him appreciate how lovely it was. Floaroma was small and quaint in a way that reminded Connor of home...

Congrats on finishing this project, first things first! Embarking on something this ambitious, and something that's deliberately constructed so differently than usual, is something to be proud of as it is; seeing it through to the end is a tremendous feat. I'm super excited to see what else...

I'm admittedly less familiar with your overall body of work than Pen is, but I have to say, I concur with their comment about your knack for writing about grief. Like, there's a lot of layers to this story that I picked up on -- the odd, conservative ways of a church who doesn't seem to care so...

CHAPTER TWO: No More the Sub-Mariner (Content warnings: strong language, hospitals, mentions of parent death) "Uh-huh. I… see." By the time Connor stopped talking, Dr. Danae Calchas of the Floaroma Medical Centre's psionics ward had long since stopped smiling. Her notes had been taken with the...

Some responses under the cut -- thanks so much for the comments; I'm touched that y'all took such a thorough look at this! I'll try and get chapter 2 posted before the end of the day.

This was a charming read! It's really impressive just how much character is crammed into such a short story, especially one that is openly and admirably pre-occupied with this particular theme of ungrateful, shitty tourists commodifying the wildlife -- an interesting take on the source material...

ah, geez So, I've read all the way up to the end of nuestro here, and I've gotta say that I'm really struck by this story's opening few chapters. The form of it is obviously a little bit arresting -- we're presented with little vignettes that working backwards, of course, an d we're going from...

IMPORTANT NOTE, DECEMBER 2022 (FOR BLITZ 4 ONWARDS): THIS VERSION IS OLD AND HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED. I STILL INTEND TO REPLY TO THE OLD UNANSWERED COMMENTS HERE EVENTUALLY AND AM LEAVING THIS THREAD UP FOR POSTERITY'S SAKE, IN CASE YOU WANNA READ AND REVIEW IT, BUT BESIDE IT NOT REFLECTING THE...

oh whoops I forgot to do this earlier hello!! some people call me Jeff; feel free to use that for me. I use this pen name for AO3 and FFN, though I have nothing up on the latter because I can't be bothered until I've got a big backlog to post on there and also I'm scared of it (even though I...

Oh wow, this is bloody excellent! I'm always a sucker for the trope of "powerful Pokémon breaking free from capture paralleled with lowly Team Such-And-Such grunt escaping to a better life" (which is oddly precise, but like, I've seen it a few times); this is an example of it being executed...
