Welp, it's official. It's my first cakeday here on SG.

I stumbled across the site by accident last year and thought user oriented giveaways could be a pretty neat idea, so I created an account of course. I've mostly lurked rather than engaged as a whole, although, there were some exceptions such as showing gratitude or jumping into a topic I could relate with on occasion. It's been fairly chill and I enjoy seeing the discussions and events that take place here.

I think most can likely agree it's been a crazy year for various reasons. I myself lost a furry friend(profile pic) to a mix of pancreatitis and a tumor early this year. My other furry friend had a blood clot that reduced her kidney function to about 20% only a few months later. As someone that gets deeply attached to their animal friends and with the stressors of the pandemic madness mixed in, things have been a drag for me this year. Being able to participate in giving has been a sort of uplifting experience for me personally. Enough of the sob story though, right.

With that said, not all is bad. I work as a care provider and I can confidently say my clients and I are staying safe, secure, and healthy. I've got a new fluff-ball named Jack, who is a bit of a handful but quite lovable. I've also reconciled with some family who I never thought I'd connect with again too. The times really shape events in the strangest of ways.

I've also taken up writing. I've written on and off as a hobby over the years but never much more than that. It's a ton of work but I do quite enjoy the process. I've finally decided to attempt writing a novel - included in this attempt is to have it fully written, proofread, and published by 2022. What can I say? I want to be the first author in the family, even if it doesn't become a bestseller haha. I've got a few chapters pumped out so far but nothing ready to be consumed yet. It's a fantasy novel with a 'War of the Worlds' vibe but the idea is even more desolate and dreary. Hopefully next year I may have something to share with the community, more than a few games at least!

Games? Did he say games?! Yes, you read that correctly. After being subjected to my monologue I think you deserve a few GA's. It's not much but I'll be adding a small train for your time here shortly. Mostly bundled goods but perhaps something will catch your fancy. You will need to answer a horribly difficult question before gaining access though! Giveaways require contributor level 1 and end on December 6th, at 7:00pm PT. Thanks for reading and I hope you're all staying safe and well.

Happy Cake Day! Hopefully, all goes well with that novel. It's been one heck of a year for everybody but I'm glad to hear of some silver linings to liven things up. May 2021 bring you greater things!
