Writing: It’s the creepiest time of the year! As usual, my newsletter has temporarily become “Weird Dark Prose” for Spooky Season. (And I’m still writing a monthly short story for 12 Short Stories in 12 Months.)

Sewing/Wardrobe: I’ve been sewing practical things recently, so maybe it’s time to make something frivolous.

Day Job: Chugging along. I’m currently focusing on my occasional clients (the ones who only send info a couple of times a year) so January won’t be so miserable.

Everything Else: I’ve been doing a little volunteer work lately, and my partner and I have tickets to two shows in October that I’m really excited to see. You have to cultivate joy in these dark times, after all.
