Breakfast & Other Journeys We Take came out in November. Anthropods came out last month.
Worms is on its way! I finished my "last" round of edits on Monday and currently working on my "last" read through before sending it out again.
The work is never done, and this is what I want.

I was laid off in 2022 by an LMS software company. I started later that year at another place and all of the training was done by the company that laid me off.
I left that job, starting a new one today. All of the training is by the company that laid me off.
I want to scream.

Open mic night. Going to read a short story I wrote a few weeks ago without the ending. I like all of the first 1500-ish words of it. The ending needs something else.
