Hey folks,

'Rotscapes' is still in the works but I'm stepping down from Backerkit and The Book Bazaar for now while I dig deep into the research. I'll keep you all updated!

It's profoundly saddening to read that AP will no longer be assigning or running book reviews because readers don't engage with them enough and they take too much effort to plan and assign. People complain about critics as gatekeepers; wait until all that's left is marketing.

Rewriting the beginning of ch. 1 for 'Rotscapes'. I wrote a 100 or so words of mind vomit the other day and now it's cohesive and makes sense. Ch.1 now sits at 265 words. Total: 747 words #amwriting
