Awesome to watch our stuff get bricked by "progress"

I have been dreading my next update bc I expect similar nonsense.

I sent out my first submission in actual years and I am proud of me.

It's hard to live rn.

This is why I thank El Husband profusely in every book even though he probably does not realize it bc I'm sure he has not read them all. He tried to keep up. It was a valiant effort.

There was also 3 years of non stop funerals for family members and loved ones in the mix but.

My career has been financially dead for a decade or so now.

Multiple times in my career we have had a discussion about whether or not we could afford for me to keep writing or I needed to find a job that paid actual money. Famously this is half of why I struggle with Orc3. I thought I would have to quit when it was done. It produced QUITE the block!

YUP

Previously I cringed through these eps because it was just cringe, and now I cringe because they are THE REALEST EPISODES commenting on a problem that is EXISTING CURRENTLY, and we saw coming 35 years ago but did nothing to stop ourselves from manifesting.

Ha!!! That would be more fun i think.
