Slow Meatspace
Good morning, chickadees! Today I’m over on the good ‘ol Substack with a post about NaNoWriMo. I’ve decided on a schedule of Soundtrack Mondays, Writing Tuesdays, and Friday Photos, which should keep stuff around here hopping. I’m not just an author, I’m a damn experience. It’s foggy this morning, the inversion and Stagnant Air Advisory …

Soundtrack Monday: Measuring Cups
I’m not a huge Andrew Bird fan. Some of his stuff is just confusing for the sake of confusion, and that irritates me. And yet Measuring Cups came across my musical radar just at the right time while I was writing Dru dealing with the bullshit that is high school, especially for kids who have …
Monday To-Do
NaNoWriMo is underway; I’m doing a fresh new Watcher book for it. Right now it’s like pulling teeth because the word gain has to come in revision, but at least I’ve the damn thing quasi-outlined. I never use a very tight outline, and the thing’s main purpose is to be thrown out once I get …

Globular Children
Yes, my lovely globular children! You will be brushed with oil and roasted, then I will SCRAPE OUT YOUR FLESH and PUREE IT and CONSUME IT WITH SPICES and quite possibly a crust. …if you can’t tell, I had quite a lovely Samhain, and I hope you did too. I got a lot of things …

Sharing Good Things
The wind is up today, the Columbia Gorge inhaling for the deep dive into winter. There was stuff hitting the roof all night, but once the dogs are settled on my bed nothing fazes them. Of course, that could also have been because the wind chill manages to make the house a trifle chilly at …

Soundtrack Monday: Fool For Love
I know I missed last week’s Soundtrack Monday due to grief, but I’ve got a great one for you this time around, dear Readers. Roadtrip Z started out with my writing partner making an offhand comment about competence in a zombie apocalypse. Both she and I consider competence to be one of the sexiest things …
Unmatched Stubbornness
So there was a book release, a zero finished, then another book release–this one ultra-stressful for a variety of reasons–and a beloved pet dying. No wonder I feel like the last few weeks have been an endurance contest, and one I’ve got the worst of. There was also a shift to a new desktop, which …

Steam, Sun, Cedars
Some mornings you go outside with the dogs and a cuppa, the sun is peeking through a break in the cedars, and the steam is so beautiful you’ve got to get a shot. It’s been a dreadful week after losing poor Fearless!Cat. None of us are quite right. There’s been a lot of hugging, a …

Adieu, Fearless
So… yesterday, the Princess padded into my room somewhat early, bearing a mug of coffee and some bad news. Our Fearless!Cat was not doing well. Regular Readers will remember Fearless!Cat was my father-in-law’s; when he went into assisted living he was distraught over what would happen to her. Of course we took her in. It …

Plastic Bat Objections
Yes, that is a small bat encased in Lucite. No, I did not buy it. Yes, I was awful tempted; no, I really didn’t buy it, because of Philosophical Objections. But given that the morning I saw it was full of uncomfortable things, like being doused in asafetida-laced, salted rainwater while people were screaming, maybe …
