Image Hosting

Using Tumblr over the past couple of years has been great for me posting fanart and gifs (which I've started making recently and am enjoying working out how to do so!), but I'm planning to have a back-up archive of any of these that I make, just in case the site goes down and the images are lost through glitches or any other reason.

Since Dreamwidth's image hosting is limited (which I understand—the cost of hosting anything above what it already does must be pretty high) and apparently doesn't work much in embedding images on other sites apart from DW, I've decided to make a couple of albums over on Squidge Images, and maybe another site for my non-fandom image hosting.

I'll be doing the Journaling Prompt for the first challenge!

I have some pretty significant goals for July, and the latter half of 2025. I plan to:

• Sort out a bunch of stuff in my room. I may be moving out after this summer for uni so I want it to be as neat as possible in the last couple of months I have in it. That means donating a bunch of books I don't read anymore, and throwing out all the random pieces of paper I've amassed over the years! Not fanworks of course—I'll be putting those into folders that I'll take with me.


• Get further on my reading list. Not just books I might need for my uni course, but also finishing the books I've forgotten about and left unfinished by accident (which is... a significant amount actually). Also I've picked up three from the library! Out of these three I'm currently reading "Control" by Adam Rutherford, which is a fascinating (and understandably horrifying) read. I'm also planning to read further with the Eighth Doctor Adventures novels but there are a lot to get through, so that will most likely take me longer than the rest of this year lmao.


• Going out for walks more. Unfortunately I've been a bit too busy to go out that much, what with the last year of A Levels feeling like a major step-up from the first year for me. Now that's over, I'm planning to get around a lot more, maybe catalogue all the streets I've never actually been down before and go to them, since I might not end up ever visiting them if I move away with uni. Also just going out rambling in some green space in the countryside sometime, which I haven't done for a while.


• Work on my fanworks! The start of this year was actually pretty productive for me fandom-wise, as I published three one-shots and one ongoing multichapter fic on AO3! Also my first time publishing an E-rated fic, which at first I was slightly embarrassed of but everyone was really encouraging about. I hope that I keep up this streak of writing fic because I have about ten WIPs that I want to share. Also I signed up for the AU Roulette Challenge on Tumblr, so I hope to write for that as well!

Thank you to the Sunshine Revival Challenge for posting this prompt! :D
