I really need to start banging out handmade Yule gifts. Everything that needs stitching is gonna take forever because I'm not using a sewing machine and I'm not great at hand stitching. The lap blanket I'm working on has just taken so much time and it's not even 1/2 finished yet 😹😹

Found all my fabrics in storage. I have so many different kinds in decent quantities because I was selling handmade goods (also found my box of dice bags and bracelets) and man... I forgot I had a few for myself to make clothes 😭😭😭

Another rejection 😭😭
At this rate I'll have enough short stories and flash fic to make my own anthology of nonsense. I'm kinda over it though - it's reminded me why I never participated in short stories and flash fiction contests before.

#BookishQOTD Genuinely don't like first person very much (which is hilarious cuz I'm a romance and fantasy girlie...)
Third person past with an omnipresent narrator that bounces between characters is my jam, and is basically how I write. I like to be close to the characters but also see the world.

Do you have a preferred pov and tense while reading (i.e. first person past, third person present, etc.)?

I kinda need a hug.
But I'm gonna settle for crocheting in bed and pretending I got enough work done today and not worrying about things for a couple of hours so that I can sleep tonight.
Goodnight.

I decided that I'm gonna use some of the yarn stash to make the feline roommate toys for Yule.
His favourite toy is just a stick with paper and twine so I'm making him a tube with tassels and maybe a granny square chicken or a mouse, idk yet.

1 and 4 but my hockey team is currently winning so less ennui (and I actually don't know where the cat is...)
What are you up to?
1. pretending to write
2. rolling weird dice
3. contemplating the cosmos
4. managing cats & ennui

But alas, instead of writing notes for the story and fleshing out the world, I have to study stats because I have a tutor session in 3 hours and I HAVE to pass the exams cuz I can't afford to retake them 😭😭😭
Missed a short story contest because I had absolutely zero ideas before the deadline but now I have this REALLY GOOD ONE and... I think it's going to be a novel. Dang it.
