The bridal tent's chirping irked Else as she passed it's beaded entry. 15 gathered preparing for the festival. 2 would marry after a year engagement, the rest would wave ribbons at hopeful grooms. Else tugged her curious sister along. They had carvings to trade.

Much of my vacation mimicked a cat life. I spent time with people who love me and fed me. I didn't have to do anything and I took a nap whenever I wanted.

Mine was 34, but my cat when crazy! She is acting like there is something in my laptop! and sniffing and digging under it.

Our in person writing club is meeting today. Neither of us have done much writing because both of us have had a difficult month. We might take the time to just write. Does anyone else meet with other writers? Does it help?

I woke up at 3am today with a brainstorm idea of how to better present my MC2's primary goal that will give the expression of her motivation more tension. So, I got up and wrote a short scene. I'm so tired - but happy. #WritingCommunity

My life is such that I care much more about supporting my friends in real life going through drama than creating drama for the characters in my story. That said, I did writ 2000 words early this morning when I couldn't sleep.

I haven't been writing much, but I did paint my cats.

What do you call an author who dies before they've ever written a book? Shared this at author's club this afternoon: youtube.com/clip/UgkxQVJt4… The rest of the session we discussed why we're writing and wrote scenes with a therapist/elder counseling a character. Productive. 🥰

I got my music, drink and candle mood set up so I was all ready to read through my WIP to remember where I am and continue working on it. I read the first page and hated it and edited that first paragraph until I got distracted and started planning Halloween costumes.

Look what I saw in the wild yesterday. So beautiful. 🥰😍
