Lately, I'm back to this constant low/mid-grade pain that is so distracting when I sit down to write. It's like a ringing in the ears or restless legs when you're trying to sleep.

It's a good view.

Reading NEW books during the pandemic has been difficult for me. I'm constantly re-reading old favorites, but fewer new-to-me books than I'd like. I think it has to do with familiarity, decision fatigue, and feeling like the world is unsafe. So I retreat to what I know, not to the emotional labor of reading new books.

How wonderful and weird life is. What an honor to get to create.

I think maybe I'll do #NaNoWriMo, except in October too. Spread 45-50k words out over 61 days. Maybe. Anyone wanna join me?? No revising. No judgment. Just content generation.

The characters I am pouring myself into in this season are Ysa and Keyes, along with Letty, Parke, and a very crushable Henry Cabot. I love them all.
