If you missed novel 'The Wager and the Bear' by @johnironmonger.bsky.social in 2025, imagine...
Two men floating away from Greenland on an iceberg, with only a hungry polar bear for company; the outcome of a bet or wager, foolishly committed to decades before...

Delighted to have written 5k so far this month. At the start of the month I worried it would be hard to access my WIP after the break. Here‘s what helped:
1: Rereading the last five chapters.
2: Reviewing my research notes.
3: Relaxing and reminding myself that it’s the first draft.
