On my unlooked-for day off, I found myself turning to writing — long-hand, believe it or not! This is just a first draft, but when compleat it will be for a very special patron at the Maryland Renaissance Festival.

Martha watched him leave and then inched back towards the door he'd exited from. She seemed #calm on the surface but her short staggered steps told Amy that she was nervous.

"Thanks for all your help, I need to go too," Amy called after her, already heading for the exit. #vss365 #writing

Rereading this piece again is still as painful as the day I wrote it, but the feelings still burn inside me with the same purpose. I will die guarding what is precious to me.

Hope you enjoy this piece with the updated background photo! We tired, but we persist. <3

A photo of decayed leaves and brown ground is pierced through by tiny white snowdrop buds on thin, curving, pale green stems as they sprout up through the ground. A transparent white text box in the center contains a poem written by N.T. Embeast. The author’s name is at the top of the graphic beneath an icon of pale green antlers.

The poem reads as follows:

“I did not bleed
so you could wipe away
all evidence of my pain.
My suffering,
my loss,
is not for your gain.
The bodies buried
in my heart
grow flowers,
and your rapacious hands
would rip them from my chest
before I laid cold an hour.
So I’ll invoke eternity
and never perish
if only to protect
what you
would blemish.”

Why do I do this to myself? I have a speculative fic/women's lit manuscript out on query. I am working on a YA fantasy novel and a cozy agility murder mystery. I have my demon feminine rage book, and I am starting a children's picture book. I need to pick a lane! But, it's all storytelling #writing

“Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Xiao Long.” Weiss smiled as she set the prosthetic care kits into the drawer along with Ruby’s grav stands. “I know we just sort of dropped on you.”

He shook his head and waved the concern off. “This is Yang and Ruby’s house as much as mine. It would be nice if you were back here for a visit rather than on a mission. But I’ve been there.”

“It’s a longshot, so this might turn out to be just a simple visit in the long run anyway.” Weiss walked to the bags.

“You and Ruby keep your kits together?” He asked, pointing to the drawer.

She looked up and turned back to look at him. “Oh, yeah, we’ve made it a habit to do maintenance together since she got her arm, so it’s just convenient.”

Taiyang watched as Weiss moved from one bag to another pulling out travel bags of toiletries then carrying them past him and across to the bathroom. “It gets like that, yeah.”

Weiss looked back at him and then looked to where she was setting the bags out. She flushed and cleared her throat. “Yeah, I suppose at some point I did stop thinking about it.”

She turned at the sound of feet coming up the stairs down the hall to see Yang and Penny hit the upper floor highway. “Okay, so Ruby and Blake are heading into town to pick up blankets, pillows, and things.”

Taiyang frowned. “What about the spares in the barn?”

“The seal on the storage trunk was compromised.” Penny explained. “And the blankets within were full of holes.”

Yang looked from Penny to her father. “Looked like there was some water damage and some silverfish got into the storage.”

Resulting in you needing to readjust the way the story flows to match its new plot.

Especially the way the characters all react to each other.

allowing #quaking souls to chill

sparing future scorching pain

What a lifestyle Joseph Heller could afford as a full-time writer!

Sadly, the world that made it possible is no more.

A special thanks to Nancy Christie for having me as a guest on her excellent podcast “Living the Writing Life,” where I talk about protecting yourself against book marketing scams.

Ugh, the software companies offering "free" November challenges certainly aren't being shy this year about immediately trying to upsell you. Most of the better features are behind the paywalls too. It's not even November yet. #writing #nanowrimo
