I'm writing the last few pages of a novel draft and basking in the glow of "finishing" something, despite knowing that the real work is still ahead of me. Still, it's the conclusion of months of work, of not sleeping enough, of stealing time away from my kids, of making it work. And I'm just proud.

It's been multiple years since I used the bird app for much more than lurking, yet here I am, trying to dutifully recreate my following list after finally pulling the plug. Hellooooo out there👋
