Aw, Belinda, thank you so much - your feedback has been one of the reasons my writing has improved. (I also love this outfit, I sewed these pants and CANNOT stop wearing them.)

- the count restarts with an acceptance - I get to go to Toronto's best sushi restaurant. Sound like fun? Why not start one of your own?

And remember, if you're submitting your writing to LitMags, that someone, somewhere, is going to love what you have to say.

as well - peer feedback from humans you respect points out the places your writing could be stronger. You can find that in the writing community in other places too - a weekly Zoom writing group, for example.

What's the Sushi Rejection Project? If I can collect 100 rejections in a row (3/??)

Pushcart, two Best Small Fictions) and acceptances and almosts from LitMags I imagined were ten years away. I so wish I could time travel to my 2024 self and say HEY WORK HARDER I PROMISE IT WILL BE AMAZING.

Joining the @smokelong.bsky.social Fitness has made an enormous difference (2/??)

night. (I've seen almost every Taskmaster episode in every country** and Babben Larson and David Sundin are endlessly fabulous)

** Except Belgium, which messed with the format too much and Croatia in which the women have heels so high they can barely walk much less do tasks efficiently (2/2)

Aw, thanks so much for saying so!

The pockets are really satisfying. I'm still new enough to sewing to be like "REAL POCKETS I MADE THEM".

Agreed - also I JUST discovered Les Tissees in Quebec, their fabrics look STUNNING.

Pam, thank you! I'm especially happy with how combining two patterns worked, I was REALLY unsure until I actually put them on at the end if my idea would work.

Aw, that's so kind. Thank you.
