Yeah, so this year, I’m doing something new with the annual goals: Health: do daily supplements, get the breathing exercises done and a year later pick up my appliance (let’s just say sheltering-in-place through last year’s plan for a number on me), and get healthier Writing: write stuff daily and don’t care if it’s poetry […]

Story Structure: the Ad Hoc and the Uncertain
So I’m writing a story again, go me. I’m actually writing stories all the time and there’s of course, the commission and the Big One hiding out in my Big Fear timeline that I don’t even know when it’s supposedly due. Ahem, anyway. Then there’s this thing. I brainstormed it over the last two days […]
Read more...Hello, Vacation!
Where apparently the first thing I do is just sleep. A lot. A lot, a lot. This is my annual let’s not melt down week, right after vacation resets for the year because when one is faced with chronic health issues, it’s amazing how you can fritter your whole vacation allotment taking care of that […]
Read more...Notes on a Friday
Work has been intense, but I’m heading in for a weeklong holiday, so just trying to make it through to tonight. I’ve been formulating goals for the year, and stuff I want to deal with, but more on that in the days ahead when I’ve thought it through better. And while I’m thinking of it, […]

Read more...Just a Note to Let You Know
I am on vacation, meaning planned sick time I’ve needed for two months but couldn’t take because work was so busy. If I don’t blog, reblog, like, or do more than lurk, just know that I’m sleeping up and will be back as a more productive friend and member of the circles I’m in. Later. […]
Read more...I had great plans
And I spent most of my time this weekend reading and commenting and giving kudos for the Exchanges After Dark discord server’s birthday bash, which was a badfic and badart exchange. I have not yet doled out comment replies. General update on the year’s writing goals (which I still haven’t gone back and finished adding […]
