@spiralwaves Progress update on the "In Imago Diaboli" fanbind!

After weeks struggling with the typeset (note to self: never think "ahh, this is going so easily!" during a creative project because. that's just asking for trouble 😅 ), I finally got it to print more-or-less nicely... ignoring the printer skew, lol. Ah well! We're out of the typesetting and into the fire, or something, heh.

hear me out, we joke about the 118 having bets on when buddie is getting together, mainly hen, chimney, bobby + extended family. but what if b-shift is in on it. they somehow have a whiteboard at the firehouse. a-shift writes normal memos on it. as soon as they all leave, someone dramatically flips it and bam! there's a whole detailed timeline trying to figure out what buck and eddie are to each other, red string and everything. there's multiple theories, some right, some wrong. at the start of each shift they brainstorm. ravi has the task of arriving early to see if buck and eddie leave together or not. someone knows lena bosko and they call her for details. she tells them about the grocery store fight. they move up the divorced theory on the board. at the end of the shift they flip it back around and nobody ever notices even though there's obviously red string hanging from the bottom.

Everybody always talks about "oops the fic was longer than it was meant to be"

But shoutout to my fellow "can't/can rarely write a multichap/anything longer than 5k or so max, often way less" writers who just can't seen to stop their fic from being shorter than intended.

Anyway longform and shortform writing are different skillsets and while fandom often only cares about, appreciates, and praises the former, I always love you, fellow shorter fic writers. A drabble is a challenge, and not every story needs to be 30k+. Shorter fics are amazing.

i love writing porn and i wont feel bad about it. understanding the eroticism of a character is character analysis if u are enlightened.

🗂️ Import moaaaaar!

Some writers have already imported more than 100 docs into Ellipsus. 🤯 We respect the commitment, so we’ve shipped some improvements to streamline the process. With these updates, you can: Import multiple Markdown files at once, import files directly into a folder, or import files without automatically opening them in Ellipsus.

🗯️ Comments that pop

The Ellipsus crew are long commenters. Suggestions, links, musings, memes… we jam it all in that little input field. And my goodness, trying to communicate so much without line breaks or rich text was fucking painful. Not anymore! Rich text comments are here! Decorate your comments with bold, italics, lists, links, and more. (And soooo many line breaks.)
