Ursula Vernon's Hugo acceptance speech included this delightful anecdote-slash-metaphor-slash-encouragement. https://www.patreon.com/posts/91410900
There is a species of water beetle that regularly gets swallowed whole by frogs. And while there’s a lot of things you can do to keep from being eaten, once you’re inside a frog, your options are severely limited. Generally you get digested. But this particular species of beetle said “You know, I bet there’s another way.” And it started walking. In fact, it walked through the frog’s digestive tract and out the back end. This is 100% true, you can look it up. 19 out of 20 of these beetles will simply walk out of the frog, unharmed. It usually takes them about an hour, although one beetle speed-ran the frog in five minutes, which I’m sure was very exciting for the frog. The moral of this story, if there is one, is that no matter how dark the situation, there is always a way through. And there’s always a light at the end of the frog.

Bingley met his 8-month-old cousin Miley last weekend. #UglyDogs
A red and white houndy-looking dog towers over a small black miniature schnauzer. The tips of the schnauzer's ears are chest-level on the big dog. The two are gently touching noses.
