Hey ho, squiders. I did sit down and do some thinking, and it doesn’t make sense to continue with the World’s Edge revision in its current state. So I’m going to treat the critique marathon (and my in-person critique group)

June Books: Still 4/9 (oh no) Hey ho, squiders, how are you? It is a million degrees here and only getting hotter, god I hate summer and also climate change. Still not making much progress on my revision, and feeling
Morning Pages Twelve Days In (and More Floundering)
June books: 4/9 (The Ministry of Time and The Curious Kitten at the Chibineko Kitchen) It’s Friday, squiders. Unlike many people, I am not a Yay Weekend person; weekends tend to be stuffed full of activities and not terribly relaxing,
Morning Pages Four Days In (Also Submission is a Drag and Comparison is the Theft of Joy)
Afternoon, squiders. I have written in all sorts of new places this week. (Well, done writing-adjacent things. Submitted queries. Wrote this and Tuesday’s blog posts. Did my critiques for the marathon. No actual writing.) Right now I am at a

Distracted by the Very Thing I’m Supposed to be Working On
Howdy, squiders! I wish I could say I took a well-deserved and organized break while I waited for my critique group, but really I got nothing done at all, so alas. Oh well. On we traipse, through the mud. But
Weigh Anchor
Hello, squiders! Well, I’ve made it through the draft (again). I have made my maps, and they might actually be good. Well, they’ll at least be useful. (I do need to at least clean up the upper hold on the
I Have Survived
Happy…uh, Wednesday, squiders! I have survived the second weekend of the leadership training I was helping lead (though there were many tears, and I’ve picked up some sort of respiratory illness). I will still need to help and guide my
