Continued Season 11 Writing Excuses exercises. This month included writing the same story twice, which was interesting, and an outline that I really like.

Editing
“Labyrinth Moon”. Oh my god the “he said” “you
said” !!! I can’t believe I almost thought this was done back in June. “Volcano”. Gender-swapped the main characters, which gave me a chance to totally refresh my interest in the story, if nothing else.
OWW seems to be interfering with my editing time. I suspected this would happen...

Knitting
Ann Boleyn (1998). Still on that sleeve, last month I had one pattern rep done. This month I did nothing. I think one of the rules I need to make is I have to finish both sleeves of this before I buy more yarn.
Mont
St. Martin gift socks. I’d done the
cuffs in September. Finished. Due to the current yarn diet, these are made from
yarn I had around the house, so I’m a little insecure about them.
Gift
(other thing). This was half-done
in September, knit actually from a pattern I got published in a magazine quite
a few years ago. Finished.
Gift

Duck
Baby booties. This turned into a
nightmare. I’ve done these before and they came out fine. I was using random
sock yarn leftover from whatever and the needles specified in the pattern, and
I knit one bootie and thought, “this is kind of large, maybe I made a mistake
somewhere.” So I knit the second one looking for where I might have gone wrong,
and did the knitted-on Icord and everything and it came out just as big as the
first one. So I went looking for the smallest needles I own, and I started
again. The first one came out perfect, of course. Apparently gauge matters.
