Today was filled with rushing around from one place to another. Lots of errands. Spent a lot of time on my feet. I am so tired. Wrote 1,731 words on Remnants tonight.

I've been wondering what would happen if we all sent emails in response to Musk's ultimatim, especially if our work involved anything anti-Musk.

Well done, ladies who wrote/edited on Day 21 of #FebWritingChallenge! You rock! @madeleinedeste.bsky.social @janicessmith.bsky.social

This hits hard.

1. Write 2. Finish 3. Clean it up however you need to, if you need to 4. Send it out--top markets first 5. Keep sending it out till it sticks (Adapted from Heinlein's rules)

Good link to have on hand.

I wish more people understood this because it’s really fucking offensive to see people being gender-policed.

This makes me so happy. I saw what my mom went through and it was horrific. Too late for her but maybe other will be spared!

We decided not to raid tonight since the new raid will be open in 2 weeks. So, I wrote more, even though I hadn't planned to. Earlier today, I finished reading book #7 of year. Tonight, I started reading book #8. Played both WoW retail & classic. I wrote 2,003 words today on Remnants.

I am the only writer who posted for Day 20 of #FebWritingChallenge, so it seems strange to post a congratulations just for myself. We will resume regular congratulations posts tomorrow.

3-month old male Pittie puppy went missing on 2/8 @6:30am from car parked on 18th St & Valencia. Please look out for him! Tan with white chest, white socks. Has 4 brown spots in a square pattern on the back of his neck. Please take a photo if you think you see him!!! Call 415 254 2986. Please share!

Worst. Episode. EVER.

As we're discussing self-pub and libraries, my ebooks are on Overdrive/Libby for libraries to order. They're more likely to do that if someone makes a request. Werecockroach is also on Hoopla. Most people who go wide will be available to libraries, as it's very easy to set up with D2D.

DOW drops over 1200 points across the last two days. I wonder what could have caused that? Oh. www.nbcnews.com/business/mar...

Tariffs increase inflation. Stocks tumble. Politically motivated layoffs throughout the Federal government increase unemployment. Local governments can't absorb the lost jobs. Cuts to USAID lose American farmers $500M+. Cuts to FAA makes air travel scarier. Tourism likely to go down.

I kinda want to hear this in French with a guillotine in the background.

Bet he voted for FOTUS, too. The Find Out phase has kicked in

Do they also have separate bathrooms for bigoted Nazi assholes? I hope so. Because you don't want me in a room with one of them.

"Meteor not arriving fast enough" Rest of the world being punished for the common mistakes of Americans? Bit harsh. 😂

Wow! I've been a singer of one sort/caliber or another my whole life. I've been in plenty of choirs and this is so familiar to me. What a great parallel! :)

Okay. Okay, I rag on Google a lot these days, but if you google "everybody at the bar gettin tipsy" the window sways, and it got a smile out of me.

My goal for the next three days is to write 1,612 words/day so I can hit 35,000 words on Remnants by the end of the weekend. It's these major steps that keep me going when the world is falling apart around me. Today, 1,626 words before work. I won't have to worry about writing more after raid. Whew!

"take the word *crass* and just Russify it" couldn't be a better way to codename Trump as a Russian asset
