I'm off work and my brain is scrampled egg right now so can't get stuck into writing... So I have been doing a bit of art. It's messy and it's shiny and it's keeping me sane. Ish. Anyway here is my space octopus.

Konnichiwa! I got my flu & Covid shots, then in the parking lot a dude asked me if I knew anyone who'd buy his dead father's hearing aids. I suggested the local radio station's call in trading show Tradio. (Maybe I should call in about my books!) 😂
