This year I set out to enter one #writing competition a month. Although I missed February, I entered two in November to make it up. And with December's competition entered, I can officially say that I did it!

Low energy Samhain for me yesterday. But I did go watch the new #Frankenstein Movie. Phenomenal, amazing set design, costumes, acting. Absolutely one to see

One of my #writing goals is to complete two second draft manuscripts by years end. One is finished (and stewing), the other is about halfway to completion.

Autumn walks are the best, so many colours, not too hot or too cold, got to see so many dogs. Truly had a great time

Hubs is at work all day and I have the day off. Starting #writing at half past nine this morning, took a break for a short walk and some lunch, and only just now have I wrapped up my writing for the day. Three chapters edited. Super happy with myself!

About halfway through the second draft of my #sapphic horrormance, the project I've been working on while my main project stews.

I've spent the last two weeks addicted to #TinyBookshop.
Not only has it made me feel guilty about not reading my current read, but it's also helped me expand my TBR pile

OK, is it is official. the second draft of my manuscript is complete! It might be a hot mess, but's my 100 K hot mess.
Time to let it stew while I work on other things.
But not right now because I'm taking a short #writing break for the weekend
