  Wind/Water/Salt Chapters 39-51:  Still n eed to take up comments and revise.  Persephone  (probably not its real name): I did a couple of thousand words, worked on it ten days in the month.  Short Stories:   Critted  12  Got back  7 Submissions  1  Out there  1  Rejects  0 Knitting Striped long-sleeved t-shirt  (self).  Started the month 2" from the hem. Finished the body and started the first sleeve. Tay Tartan cardigan  (Martin Storey). Started the month about a half-inch from the armholes, with both sleeve cuffs done, one inch of sleeve fair isle. Did maybe 4 inches.    Extra Whip socks  (Coffeehouse knits). Finished the fourth sock. Started the fifth. I Yam pullover (self). I needed something portable to take to St. John's, so I started this. Everything I'm working on right now seems to use 3mm needles.  I guess I should cut out a sewing project. All that fabric won't use itself (I hope, that would be creepy). 

LHC #171: "The Sol Majestic" by Ferrett Steinmetz.  Fourth book of his that I've read. For some reason the library didn't have this one as an eBook, so I took it on vacation. Ed forgot to take a book with him, so I lent him this even though it's probably not his jam, and he quite enjoyed it!  LHC #172: "Radical Suburbs" by Amanda Kolson Hurley. Another hard copy. It was really interesting, and not hating on suburbs at all. But then I suppose I live in an inner suburb, and I have nothing against Markham for example. They aren't all bad, they just take a while to find their stride.  LHC #173: "Mexican Gothic" by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. eBook. Totally awesome, but I knew it was the mould as soon as it was mentioned. No house has mould without that being the problem.  LHC #1 74: "The Dragon Waiting" by John M. Ford. I feel like I read this a really long time ago, like 25 or 30 years ago. I really wish I knew more of the right history,
