We know that the pen can be mightier than the sword, but what if you could have both? That's what we thought with this written blade.
Check out how we brought the idea together into our latest piece of art.

Glitch ITEM 20 Unique, Magical Price 70,000 gp Usage held in 1 hands; Bulk 1 There are relics in this world that defy the natural order of things and exist in a realm that seems impossible to us. This +3 greater striking energizing longsword is adorned with a leather-wrapped handle and brass fittings at the cross guard and pommel. The blade itself is composed of an unnaturally glowing, green crystal-like material that shifts and distorts constantly. Activate [2] envision; Frequency 3 times per day; Effect Choose an empty space that you can see within 15 feet of you. You instantly travel through the material plane appearing in that space leaving behind a clone of you with the minion trait in the space you were occupying. The clone shares your stats, except that its Hit Points are equal to your current level +8. Activate [2] envision, manipulate; Effect You Strike an enemy with this weapon and simultaneously cause any active clones of you to explode in a reality shattering distortion. Creatures within a 5-foot emanation of a clone must succeed on a DC 43 Will saving throw or become Stunned 4. You are immune to the effects of this ability but your allies are not.
Sometimes you just need a big powerful weird ass sword.
Thankfully, we make all kinds of those for your #Pathfinder2E games. You can join our Patreon and get access to a massive library of creations no matter what you might need. patreon.com/join/abyssalbrews
I'm always proud of the art we put out, but this piece just sticks in my mind from time to time.
Quill +1 Shortsword, Rare A leather wrapped handle has been melded to an inkpot that has two golden quills extending from it, acting as the crossguard for this shortsword. When found, it appears that no blade is attached to this handle, but when it is drawn, several lines of magicked runes extend upward from the handle acting as the blade of this weapon. You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon. This weapon has 5 charges that can be expended for the following effects. It regains all of its charges daily at dawn. Cutting Words (1 charge). When you hit a creature with a successful attack using this weapon you can expend a charge to cast Vicious Mockery on the targeted creature as part of the attack action, using your spell save DC. Foretold Demise (3 charges). You use an action to expend charges and whisper words of doom through the blade. Choose one creature within 5 feet of you to make a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failure, choose a damage type from either fire, cold, or lightning. The creature gains weakness to that damage type for 1 minute. Additionally, the runes on this weapon shift and change their appearance causing this weapon to deal that damage type for 1 minute.

Quill ITEM 8 Uncommon, Magical Price 495 Usage held in 1 hand; Bulk L A leather wrapped handle has been melded to an inkpot that has two golden quills extending from it, acting as the crossguard for this +1 pacifying striking shortsword. When found, it appears that no blade is attached to this handle, but when it is drawn, several lines of magicked runes extend upward from the handle acting as the blade of this weapon. Activate [F] manipulate; Frequency Once per hour; Requirements Your previous action was a successful strike using this weapon; Effect You conjure words of doom in your head and whisper them through the blade, you attempt to Demoralize the creature. You gain a +1 item bonus to this Intimidation check. Activate [2] envision; Frequency Twice per day; Effect You speak of the demise of a creature within 5 feet of you causing the blade to cast seal fate (save DC 24). When cast in this way, the type of damage chosen from the spell is random. While the effects of this spell remain on the creature, this blade shifts its runes and appearance causing it to deal a damage type matching that which was chosen during the spell cast. The damage type always resets to piercing when the spell effects end or when you begin your next daily preparations, whichever comes first.

Hah, never played it but I dig the art style on that sword from what I just looked up.

I implore all creatives in this space to spend some time thinking about your time off. I know that's a weird thing to suggest, but working non-stop is how you end up taking a lot of time off which can kill a project.
Think about what time is for you before you need it.
Page ITEM 3 Magical Price 50 gp Usage held in 1 hand; Bulk L While current magical practices have evolved to send longer messages over a short distance or short messages across the plane, a problem has arisen and a need along with it for the sending of longer messages over longer distances. When found, this paper is folded into the shape of an origami bird with its wings outstretched and ready to take to the skies. The paper itself is of outstanding quality and its corner bears an embossed figure of a bird in flight, riding the waves of the winds. You can use two actions to open this origami bird and read any message that has been left on it assuming you understand the language. The message then disappears leaving a fresh paper ready to be used once more. Activate 10 minutes (envision, manipulate) Effect You spend time crafting a message on the sheet using any writing utensil. The message can be up to 500 words in length and can include one simple drawing at the GM’s discretion. At the end of your writing, you can speak the name of any creature you know. The sheet will fold itself into an origami bird once more and fly at a rate 600 miles per day, without stopping, until it reaches the creature you named. It will then chirp at them until the paper is unfurled and the message is read, returning it to an empty sheet of paper ready for use.

Hush Wondrous Item, Uncommon (requires attunement) This odd looking mask is crafted to resemble the lower half of a face with a red ribbon that ties behind the head. The ribbon extends over the front of the mask, covering the mouth of it, resembling the look of someone being silenced with a gag. The mask itself is composed of a fired porcelain with some cracks beginning to show at the edges. Donning the masks makes you feel conscious about the volume of your voice. Twice per day, while you are attuned to this mask, when you cast a spell that has a verbal component, you can ignore the verbal requirement. When cast in this way, the incantations for casting this spell are silent, but the spell itself may still make noise, as determined by the GM. Once per day, while you are attuned to this mask, you can choose a point within 120 feet of you and cause the mask to cast Silence on that point. When cast in this way, Silence is not a concentration spell as it is the mask casting it and not you. All uses of this mask’s abilities reset daily at dawn.
Sometimes it's okay to just be quiet... in fact, it might even be preferred.

Resolute ITEM 14 Rare, Invested, Magical Price 4,200 gp Usage worn armor; Bulk L These fine +2 resilient scroll robes are incredibly well crafted and comfortable to wear, possessing many convenient pockets in surprising places. They feel steeped in divine traditions and bear a number of papers pinned to them at seemingly random places. When found, the papers are filled with religious scriptures, prayers, and some indecipherable scribblings that feel incoherent to try to read. Donning the robes fills you with righteous purpose that slowly fades over time as you wear them longer. During your daily preparations, you can choose 1 spell that you have prepared and write down its casting methods to a piece of paper before pinning it to the robe. This robe can have a maximum of 1 casting method pinned to it at a time. Activate [F] concentrate; Requirements A spell’s casting method is written on a piece of paper pinned to this robe; Effect The paper on the robe burns in an instant and you cast the spell that was written on the paper without using additional actions. A new spell casting method can be written and pinned to the robe during your next daily preparations.

Penumbra ITEM 10 Invested, Magical Price 954 gp Usage worn mask; Bulk L This imposing metal lined mask seems to be cast to resemble some type of abyssal or otherworldly creature including a gleaming orange third eye in the middle of the forehead that is always moving and scanning the surroundings. Above the eye sits a remarkably well-rendered and slightly offputting piece that seems to be a pulsating, living brain.

Grips of Force Gloves, rare Though these gloves are heavy to lift, putting them on makes them feel remarkably comfortable on your hands. While wearing these gloves, you have advantage on Strength checks where you can grip part of the object. While wearing these gloves, you gain a +1 bonus to attack rolls and the damage rolls you make with unarmed strikes. You can roll a d6 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strike. Additionally, you can choose to deal force damage instead of bludgeoning damage with your unarmed strikes. Each time you hit a hostile creature with an unarmed strike while wearing these gloves, you gain 1 charge of pressure up to a maximum of 5 charges. When you hit with an unarmed strike while you have pressure charges, you can choose to spend any amount of charges knocking the enemy away from you 5 feet per charge spent. If the enemy strikes a solid object while they are being knocked back, they take 1d4 bludgeoning damage per charge spent and are knocked prone. All pressure charges are lost if you do not hit a hostile creature with an unarmed strike for 10 minutes.
If you've ever really wanted to punch someone hard enough to send them through a wall, we've got the gloves for you.

Consistency can account for a lot.
I always tell folks that are starting, aim for what you know you can do in your set timeframe. Don't push, don't overextend, and ignore asks that take you out of your ability to deliver consistently. Burnout comes for us all. Don't feed the flame.
They're trying to tell you to stop looking back at shit that has passed and to instead look to the future.
