Stepping toward the shadows, I saw light glint off the creature's electric blue eyes.

"Good," I thought to myself. "I really need something to hit."

got plant mail yesterday (soleirolia soleirolii).

it was very wet and wrapped in a plastic bag.

tried to clean it and repot it into drier soil. doesn't smell.

do you think it will recover?

i like the emotion thesaurus. i mostly use it to get my brain working. as I consider a character in a specific moment, their thoughts and feelings, this book helps me create the description around those internal sensations.

RENEGADES×TO ALL THE BOYS×DEAD THINGS

Ren isn't special—just your average 18-year-old screwup incapable of doing anything productive with her life. She can't even put the laundry away.

But falling for the wrong guy at the end of the world may be her worst mistake yet.
