Happy Saturday Sunday, squiders! I’m having a great day, and I hope you are too! (My Saturday ended up being so great, I never finished the blog post.) Now that we’re actively submitting, we can go back to the revision
My Daruma Has an Eye!
Good afternoon, squiders! Exciting developments in these parts. (I’m not sure who put Taig in mad mode in the background. I suspect a child.) We talked about my daruma doll a month back or so, but for those who missed
