Don't worry, RL sneaks up on all of us. Hopefully it'll be easier on you soon!
Regarding plotting, I think it might help if you gave more of an idea of where you want things to go. You generally say that you're open to ideas, but it might be a little too generic of a message in order to get people hooked. The one you made right now, for example, mentions you have plottings with your castmates. It might be good to elaborate on that, so that others can see if their characters could get involved in any of those plans, or bring new developments up during threads together with them.
Another good way to get involved is simply to tag around. During the Kobato event or Stiles's update, he could've easily built new CR from going around helping others. It's been a busy month, as you said, but it can be something to keep in mind for similar events in the future, where his kindness and willingness to help others can shine.
