What I read: March 2022

 LHC #160: "Touba and the meaning of night" by Shahrnush Parsipur. I imagine it was listed in Reading Lolita in Tehran. I've got a few things on the list bunched together that are from that (My uncle Napoleon was too I'm sure). It was very good but took me a ridiculous amount of time to read.  Book by a friend from VP. Not published yet, but I think it will be big. It was crazy long, though.  LHC #161: "The Watchmaker of filigree street" by Natasha Pulley. No idea why it was on my list, but I loved it.  LHC #162: "Vengeful" byVE Schwab. I read Vicious the year it came out. The boy strongly recommended this. His book club is reading her latest! Maybe I should move that one up my list too.  Anyway, after a few chapters I read a synopsis of Vicious so would remember who all these people were. Then I devoured this. 

In process: March 2022

  Wind/Water/Salt Chapters 39-51:  Still n eed to take up comments and revise.  Persephone  (probably not its real name): I've spent a lot of time in denial that this is a paranormal romance, but now I'm accepting it, and looking at what beats I need, etc.  Short Stories:   Critted  12  Got back  3   Submissions  0  Out there  0  Rejects  0 Knitting Striped long-sleeved t-shirt  (self).  Started the month about eight inches below the armholes on the body (knit top-down). I feel like I'm still at that point now, but it can't be true. Anyway, I'm not doing decreases anymore, it's only increases from here to the bottom.  Tay Tartan cardigan  (Martin Storey). Started the month four inches from the armholes, knitting the body in one piece.  Now I'm about a half-inch from the armholes and have started a sleeve so I can attach them when the time comes.  Extra Whip socks  (Coffeehouse knits). Finished the first sock and the cuff, heel, and gusset of the second.  Que
