So, this was a lie. However, I have made more progress on writing this year that ever before. Im about 70% down with my revisions, and after that will be hopefully beta readers, more revisions, then the self publishing journey begins!

To 2026, fellow creatives!

I will have a book released in 2025, a promise to any readers out there and more importantly, myself.

This is being pinned as a daily reminder to me that I can do it.

#JanuaryWorldbuilders Artemisia dreams of mastering magic, but after being denied from an apprenticeship at the Convocation of Mages she decides to open her own business as the titular "Hedge Mage for Hire". Along the way she adopts a familiar who communicates through illusory "speech bubbles"
#JanuaryWorldbuilders Opposite of yesterday's prompt! What's something in your worldbuilding that helps your MC (or another important character)? Do they have useful magic? A helpful critter companion? Are their clothes or weapons useful for getting around in their world?

Ive got roughly 2/3rds of my book revised for the second draft, but I need to do a lot of rework for act 3. Figuring that out though has been going surprisingly well. Merry Christmas to me!

Ive been in an extreme funk since the start of the summer. While things haven't improved, im making a big step towards rededicating my self to taking steps forward in my personal happiness.

1. Have resumed writing at least a little everyday
2. Have started learning to draw after a decade and a half

Got a smart bird feeder for black Friday so I can watch birds, yeah, I guess you could say im in my 30s now

Been just going through the motions lately. Writing and revisions aren't going as well as I hoped this year. Work grating more than usual. Stressors adding up.

Wonder what could be going on day to day that's been making life feel like a slog right now. Impossible to say.

Yeah, I think this is only going to make things worse. He's going to become a martyr. They don't care about gun violence and this won't change that, but they will use this to bolster their fascism and hateful narratives. Not looking forward to what's to come.

Editing is important. Otherwise I would have left the phrase "biting her teeth" in this book.

Doing office work is so unserious with everything going on these days. "Let's circle back on this and dot our I's before submission". Sure Kevin, whatever you say.
