Yeah Covid sucks. but hello! How are you?
I've not been this busy with work since the days when I was a baby person doing litigation from the late 80s to early 90s. Damn.
Anyway, my spawn has graduated college and my spousal unit has retired.
The Narnia Fic Exchange is live and the collection is really really amazing this year. I have one story in it I picked up as a pinch hit and reveals will be on Sunday. I'd rec some things but I've not been able to go through the collection yet and everything I've read so far has been terrific and I'm just going through it i the order they are posted. So, just use that handy filter or read the summaries and dive in. It's so superior to practically anything.
I haven't had time to do more reading because all week I've been trying to mentor a baby hire in How To Write. My goddess, babies don't know anything even if they have had 4 years of college, 3 years of law school, and a specialist degree on top of that. How do you teach writing? I mean really, really teach someone to do it well? This isn't an entirely rhetorical question. I've got a BIG Milestone birthday this week. Like humongous. As in, OMG, aren't you grandmother yet?? People keep telling me I don't look a day over ... gasp choke... 50 so yeah. Do the math. Anyway I have an idea for a birthday gift to me. I'll post more this weekend.
Black Widow! Shang-Chi! The Expanse! Star Wars Visions! Falcon and Winter Soldier! Loki! Wandavision! Leverage Redemption! Fall baking shows! Top Chef! What have you binge watched and loved? What have you read and loved? What have you baked and loved? I've personally seen The Old Guard about 8 times. Before Delta hit, were you able to do something super fun?
I hope you are healthy!
