Massive relief to take 8,000 words of reflective writing process notes and turn them into something resembling structured academic writing. Not saying it's any good, but my brain sure feels a lot better.

Celebrating the agent query success of new friends is a lovely highlight of my day.
Hope to have a positive experience to report one day myself.

Brain is melting.

I finally got to post under a beautiful blue sky.
It's taken a while. Life has been crazy.
Having a second round of Covid meant I had some time free and I'm pleased I spent it here.
Looking forward to having grown-ups in charge again.
