I lived on the moon…

Yesterday it was sunny and warm in Perth.  Today, it is grey and threatening rain.  The last of winter, I hope.  I crave sunlight.

A somewhat frustrating day yesterday, due to a certain kidlet who decided not to have a daytime nap.  I know he’s going to drop that nap eventually, but for now I count on that 1-2 hour space of quiet in the middle of the day.  It’s the best time for reading for me, and for resting myself if I need it.  But he slept through last night without a peep, so I can’t have everything, can I?

It’s kind of scary how close he is to turning two.  He’s finally starting to pick up more words now, which is awesome (even if his default for I want is a whinging sound).  Super cute is him picking up “Yay!”.

On the writing front yesterday, 1,200 words on the short story, Ghosts.  Which is now in second draft, and this draft isn’t really resembling the first much.  I really want to get a full draft finished before writer’s group this Saturday, but it’ll depend on concentration levels, energy and whether the kid decides to nap or not.

Not much reading done, but not for a lack of want.  Going somewhat slowly through The Dervish House while I balefully eye the books stacked up to be tackled next.  And there’s also the Aurealis reading that I need to keep on top of.

I need more hours in the day.  Or a body that doesn’t need sleep so much.

Signal boosting for two amazing women

This is a post that I should have made before now.  Apologies to Sarah and Jenn for not making it sooner.

You see these two amazing women?  If you don’t already know them, they are Jenn and Sarah, both faerie incarnate.  They love each other, and thanks to New York State growing up, they are getting legally married soon.

They need your help.

Even better, they’re not asking anyone to donate money and not get anything in return.  You can donate and get one of Sarah’s stories in return.

You can head over to Glamourkin and buy yourself a piece of magic.

 

You can go to Garden of Antheia and purchase some beauty for your hair.

Head on over to Sarah and Jenn’s webpage, Muse Rising, for more details and more sparkle
