spindle_ella Gonna keep doing a thing, even though I don't have major updates.
Currently Reading:
I'm still on Water Ways by Jasper Winn, and Fear by Bob Woodward, so not much to report. Fear is still heavy going, I'm debating DNFing it in favour of one of the vast array of books about the same topic that are popping up. I haven't got anywhere on my reading of writing books. Bad self, no biscuit.
Writing:
A lot less this week at 6,760 words. Pretty much all on my Little Mermaid retelling, and the end is not in sight, but the more I get done the more I can restructure it when I pick it up again after NaNo. It's technically a sequel to my NaNo project, since the protag is one of the surviving victims, so it's no biggie to finish it after I'm done with DS Thewlis's No Good Very Bad Case anyway (I have a habit of spinning off a minor character from a previous story, so every tale I crank out of my head is a hydra of new plot bunnies. It's a problem).
Crafting:
Nothing to report, really. Between the shop and writing I've kinda slipped. I did do my November monthly spread in my planner; I should maybe post a pic before I fill it in. I'm debating putting together a cover for my NaNo project, but that involves coming up with a catchier title than my working one.
I'm liking this combo someone ordered:
General Health/Mood:
Put it this way: I really wish I could take my face off and rinse it under the tap. I'm tired and cold and snotty. Fingers crossed it clears up before November hits, but I don't think I'll be that lucky.
Vid of the Week:
Look at this amazing ridiculousness, I need to share it.
