  1. I don't do resolutions. I think if you want to improve your life in any way, you shouldn't have to wait until a certain time of year to do so. And if you do, then January probably isn't the best pick.

    Generic

    An article that was hard for me to read. But definitely necessary. Thank you for this.
  3. I will. I'm replicating a faulty experiment one of my coworkers told me about, and hopefully getting some writing, beta reading and recreational reading in too.
  4. Hanging in there. Prepped for a nasty storm coming in this weekend.
  5. No such thing.
  6. Wow! A lot happening here. I'm intrigued
  7. Happy 2024. May this year not be the $#!+storm that last year was!

    Chapter Two: Scent

    I like Clara. Grey seems to be all over the place, but she seems to calm him. The ending was especially cute.

    Lagging

    Interesting topic. I'm at the point where I can tell when something I'm reading is lagging, but figuring out why is still tricky. My sister will only read fast paced books. I'm a bit more forgiving. I've read some books that were slow movers that I was fine with. There are others that just dragged on forever. I think genre plays a part (romance and fantasies handle slower paces better than mysteries or thrillers) but...I don't know. I think it depends on where an author decides to flesh things out and where to scale down. Maybe it's an experience thing, because some authors do this well and others just drag on forever. It’s an interesting topic to mull over.
  10. French like born in France, or someone who can kinda sorta communicate in French? Asking for a friend.
  11. Lovely descriptions at the start of the chapter! Look forward to reading more.
  12. This Slytherin agrees. 🐍
  13. Great article! This is also why good beta readers are so valuable. Sometimes when you've been working on a project for forever and are just too close, they can find things the writer misses.
  14. I hate snow. When it snows here, I get so irritated
  15. I felt well enough to go to work after my 4 days, but that was about all I was good for.
  16. I've had it twice (just lucky I guess) and was surprised at how wrung out I was afterwards. For like 2 weeks.
  17. It's hard starting again. Small victories.
  18. I grew up near that city. We had an Okra strut festival and played at the lake. Go pick on someone else.
  19. I've never gave Drew any trouble. He's treading dangerous waters.
  20. What did the place I grew up do to you?
  21. I had to tell my coworker what this song was about when she started talking about singing it with her kids.
  22. Man, that took me back.
  23. Bien, mais tres fatiguee. Merci!
  24. Bonsoir, ca va?
  25. I mean, sometimes we gag on bananas too.
