Working on edits from my editor on one manuscript, feedback from beta readers on another, drafting a third, while trying to figure out marketing for the end of one series and the beginning of another, and remember to eat, clean, and do laundry, all while the world crumbles and burns down around me.
Graphic of stoic dog at table with coffee, surrounded by home on fire, saying "This is fine."
