(Late) Wednesday Words
Even less productive than anticipated, LOL. I'm in the middle of a trip which has been wonderful but between packing/prepping and then traveling/enjoying myself, writing time has not been happening. Which is mildly concerning if I want to meet some of my self-imposed deadlines, but also, if I end up pushing them back, I'm fine with that.

The Stranger by Albert Camus
Most recent read for my Around the World Reading Challenge for Algeria. This has been on my TBR list for years so I was happy to fit it into my challenge, and I ended up quite enjoying this novella!

I'm at a super dialogue-heavy part of my long!fic right now, which I usually struggle with on the first pass, and that's the case here. Right now I'm basically just writing out straight dialogue to try and get it down on the screen and then I'm going to have to do massive revisions ( Read more... ) -

Fattily Ever After: A Black Fat Girl's Guide to Living Life Unapologetically by Stephanie Yeboah
Most recent non-fiction read and I found it a bit underwhelming. Loved the intersectionality aspect, but it's quite surface-level and a little too misery-filled for my tastes.
Of Water and the Spirit: Ritual, Magic, ( Read more... ) -

Not a bad week overall. Got through some edits, and ended up unexpectedly writing a Kinktober ficlet, which did cut into my plan to work on my anti-advent fic, but overall it was fine. Felt a little unproductive because I'm at a hard part on that advent fic so that particular one is slow going, but that's why I've got other fics to work on in the ( Read more... ) -

Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law by Mary Roach
Most recent non-fiction read, and as enjoyable as all her books!
Troy: The Greek Myths Reimagined by Stephen Fry
Most recent audiobook listen! My least favorite in this series so far, but that's more to do with the story than the telling of it! Still excellent!

Pretty pleased with my output this past month, especially as I had several days/weeks where I wasn't quite as prolific + a ton of modly responsibilities that cut quite heavily into my fandom time! I was worried I'd be ( Read more... ) -
