My ASLWrite Journey

To share thing here I'm trying and to put out more things about ASLWrite on the public side since fb nerfed the public facing group. I can't really provide feedback, just resources. If you try your hand the place to go is slwrite.org where the founder and some others will help you get started and learn more things.

The wires coming into the village going down like donkey kong really messed up my flow. I'm behind on everything life, which makes me behind on ASLwrite cataloging. I don't even know where to start at this point. I've made too many account and that works if I work diligently all week (not full time but something every day), but now I'm stalled out so they're sitting their decaying.

I think I'm going to open comments on this thread. I don't know if it will make a difference or not, but This is supposed to be more like reddit than a blog.

I originally had them off because I didn't want people coming to me to critique their writing. I want them to go to slwrite.org where one of the OG's is. But I'd love people to share here parts of their journey that they share over there and what feedback they've gotten.

I don't really know. I really like this portion of the internet even though its just me piddling into the void but I'm not sure I'm using it right.

Anyway, for treats, here is the grammar conversion key for my stories on Ao3 that one day might be put up if I can ever make it happen 🫠

Also my way of trying to write repository (https://aslcore.org/computerscience/entries/?id=repository&navset=1)

Full title: I've got it translated as Archive Found, but honestly a better sense of the concept is Repository Presents or Repository Presented

The Chapter summary - which is basically "The program awakes" in sign language, the english translation in the ASLWrite fingerspelling digits, and in English gloss. It includes what someone should see if they copy and paste the english string in the ao3 story (Green) and how I would type it if I could use the full range of word processing features, in this case including text boxes (orange)- which is not translatable as an english string without intense instructions someone would have to strip out.

Fuck it, I guess I'm putting it all here (not the english parts) because I'm proud of it. I am thinking now that I should change the group title (if possible ) on literature social to not just writing prompts but also reading? Or if I write something is that not a reading thing? Not sure. It was brilliantly clear last night, but fuzzy again today
