I've been, by the way, reblogging my old monster playlists on Tumblr. The lot have been also duped as YT playlists, if that's more your jam. Find the lot of them tagged "halloween playlists" on my Tumblr. Anyway, to the Things Done!
- Weekly blogpost was a linkdump because my tabs were getting ridiculous. Good bit on vulture nests there.
- Finished the ninth newsletter zine - I need to take more pictures and get them up in the shop, for form's sake more than anything. The maze in this one is delightful. I've got one zine left and I'm caught up!
- Chipping away at November's newsletter, it would be cool to get ahead but alas I doubt that is going to happen.
- Drew illustrations for two short stories that will be landing on the blog the next two Saturdays. I'd written them last here for a challenge, but now they're dusted off and have a little drawing to go with.
- Some sewing and mending work, hurrah. Including reinforcing the cuffs of the coat I made in late 2016.
In the world of writing this week, my reference document for this project has headers, ooh la, which would be more impressive if I hadn't already begun filling an A5 binder with reference. The latest doc will probably be printed out and added to the binder as well. Something satisfying about holding a grip of notes that plan a thing out. My job today is naming things and building a sheet of names, DM-style, so I don't have to keep writing things like "[location F]" (all the places are known, they're just not named).
I am making, I think, good pace for someone who can only grab some 20-40 minutes a night to write. As usual, too many other projects need doing to focus on just one thing.
Thank you as always for your support!
