This month I got a job, which had a substantial impact on my schedule. After a year of freedom, I need to find a better way to work my own projects back into my time.  Wind/Water/Salt  Chapters 29-46:  Need to take up comments and revise.    Chapter 47-48:  Finished and posted.  I messed a lot with the POVs of both these chapters.  Chapter 49-51:  Read and revised. Did you notice what I did there? It used to be 50. This book just keeps getting longer and longer. This month I had to write a complete new chapter!  Persephone  (probably not its real name): Notes, as usual.  Short Stories:  Scratched at one a bit.  Critted  9  Got back  6 Submissions  0  Out there  2  Rejects 1, but it was a nice rejection!  Knitting Penzance socks (me).  Started the month with the cuff of the first sock.

Penzance socks #5.  Started.  My plan with this project was to write it up and try to get it publish

I found it too stressful to be able to properly enjoy.   "The Empire of Gold" by S.A. Chakraborty.  And here we are.  One time this woman was making all sorts of accusations against me and one of them was that I had called her a crocodile. I thought it was the most... bizarre thing at the time. Maybe this book explained that?  I found it much more relaxing to read than the previous volumes, because the characters (some of them) were in a position to be kind to one another occasionally. Though Chapter 42 wasn't my favorite. It felt like she ran out of time. I  LHC #113: "Ruined by Design" by Mike Monteiro. Hard copy. The library has 4 copi
