Sense of humor is a load bearing coping mechanism.
I run on coffee, wine, and broken dreams.

Boxnoggin got a very long ramble this morning, and he's worn out. Then I committed the grave sin of taking a second long ramble COMPLETELY ALONE and friends and neighbours, the dog would like you to know he finds this UTTERLY INSUPPORTABLE.

@lilithsaintcrow that is a fairly audacious act to be fair. 💛

To hell with it. I have both vodka and limeade, today's been a Bit Much, and the couch has a stack of novels next to it.

@lilithsaintcrow every time this comes up in my memories I laugh my ass off!
Hope you smile just a bit ;)

Just one more damn reason I will continue to tell my computer NO on the upgrade - until it makes me (like every time before).

A whole day of banging my head on this book, interrupted by administrivia and shudder phone calls, and I have finally found the way into the next scene...

...roughly ten minutes before I must stop work until tomorrow, because it's enchiladas and movie night.

Huh. Maybe the next serial will be the Hell Wars trilogy, with Danny Valentine's foster-daughter all grown up.

That's a thought. (Yes, I'm revising an old short story...)

@lilithsaintcrow first story of yours I ever read was 'Coming Home' in the Mammoth Book of Vampire Romance. The next week I went to our local B&N and bought 'Working for the Devil' 😍

Two short stories down. The next one is fun; I'd forgotten how much I like Jill Kismet's voice. She's wound kind of tight, but that's part of her charm.

@lilithsaintcrow why did I hear the word tight here as though Goldmember from Austin Powers said it? 🤔 😘 😜 😂

Glad to see I am not alone on the extended titles and stamp of causing an immediate sour taste and U-turn.

Just challenged my writing partner to write a story about a were-rhubarb, so you can tell I'm at least mostly back on my bullshit.

If your life is so shallow you feel the need to sockpuppet into my replies with “AI”-apologist theftbro nonsense, I might pity you a bit before I block you.

But only a bit.

5k words today, and I think most of them are good. There might even be a second session after dinner, for of course there’s Friday Night Writes.

Sekrit Projekt has broken 50k, and an additional 3k this morning. The gusty rattle you might have heard is my sigh of relief that I can most probably pull this book off.

I've reached the, “no, this scene isn't getting done today, watch some Letterkenny clips instead" part of exhaustion, so there's that, I guess.

@lilithsaintcrow the desperate attempt to make it make sense, while the guys are simply impressed.
