I was really lucky and my job let me go into negative PTO while I grieved. He was my best friend.

Oooo so exciting! I try to up my exfoliating and lotioning game prior to a tattoo.

Other than that, I always bring a snack, usually trail mix. I find it has the perfect mix of sugar, fat, and protein.

What does your brain look like while editing?

Alex @sproutedtofu.bsky.social · Mar 25

That sounds fun! I'll send you a DM :)

Both. It's nice to see everything come together in big and little ways, but maybe fine tuning more? Seeing all the itty bitty dots connect is like 🤌

What about you?

Alex @sproutedtofu.bsky.social · Mar 24

I'm going to see where it takes me!

I hope it kind of makes the editing process more streamlined.
I spend several drafts just figuring out how I want the plot to go.

And then several more cinching it in.

Maybe I'll try outlining my next project, instead of letting the stars and vibes decide my character's fates.

IDK, I've got a corkboard now so I feel like things could be different. Like this could be me.

To finish my library book or to start Sunrise on the Reaping immediately, that is the question.

Follow up question: To get it on my Kobo e-reader or to get a physical copy
