Persephone
I had way more Aaron storyline than Lindsay. I went through and wrote a lot of Lindsay in. I’m rewriting scenes over and over now. Turns out giving Lindsay as much backstory as Aaron means she has more frontstory too!

Chapter 16: Posted.
Chapter 17: Carried it around on a trip, and that was great. When I leave the house… well, anytime really, there are two things I need to do every day. I do some yoga, and I look at WWS. There’s something really wrong with this chapter, and it took me weeks to figure out what: the POV character (Fairfax) needs to have a reason to show up at Abigail’s house, a goal. Once I started blocking that in, things began to make sense. Gah!
Chapter 18: did one pass through, realized it was missing a chapter break, realized there was a chapter missing, went looking for that chapter (because I knew I’d written it), need to figure out where to put it now.
Jane Ann McLachlan is doing a series of challenges for June. I’m trying to keep up!

FI Corset belt. One day I was sitting at work and I realized how I could wear this, and after that it was no problem to work on. The yarn I used is crap. It’s one of the cones I inherited, and I don’t know what happened to it. Anyway, it’s about half done now.
Drachen (knitty Fall 2018). At the start of the month I had 12” of the first sleeve. Now it’s done. Can’t wear it now, though, it’s too warm (finally, and I’m not complaining).
Midsummer Aran (IK Summer 2013). I had two rows of bottom ribbing at the start of the month. Now I’ve got 10 inches.
Gold Digger (new directions in sock knitting). Six inches? Started for something simple to knit while reading the whole internet. There’s an error in the last setup row of the main pattern, and it’s too late to fix now! The next sock will be better. That one mistake you need to put in to not offend the gods? Got it in early!
