I got a promptcast to moderate, since the stories spilled over. I have shopping to do [fortunately a quick trip to the local shops] and a shrink meet today.
At some point, I will put in 500 words into the Promptcast entry for next week. And write the story du jour.
It's a busy day.
Now that my book is out, I can get back onto other money-scrimping shenanigans. Like working on the entire catalogue of comics I shall be selling off. Yay.
Onwards and onwards to my nonsense.
I have SO MUCH writing to do today. For the Promptcast newsletter, for the Promptcast, for you, my lovely viewers. And I still have to treat my ankles and work on the dingdang book cover.
...and I plan on trying to enlist the writers on Tumblr later today.
I'm doing my best to get as many words as possible towards that 1 million total.
It's nasty hot, but I also have my post-shopping ice cream to keep me cool enough. And a

And I need to find a handful of minutes to talk to my lovelies about treating my stupid fucking ankle. Because I need help to swap the cold pack and the heat pack out and maybe even refresh the temperature a smidge.
I should go do that now.
Also in my PLNs... finishing that layer of

It's looking like a very fun day, for interesting definitions of fun. At least some of my time-shaving habits will have me working on my cover art, today, with hopes of having it
Read more »I should be posting my Patreon stuff today. I have other work, like editing mentees offering for the Promptcast.
...my sweet Powers, it is full of holes.
My mentee needs to slow the fuck down and take a good solid look at what he's writing while he's writing it. I get frustrated and have to take breaks.
One day, he shall mentor someone who's just like him... MWA-hahahaha. Ahem.
I shall be working on the editing, and the daily tale, and my

There's also a writer's grant that I need to look up again and figure out. Also worth a shot.
We don't know when money will be available again, so having multiple incomes will be an improvement on that noise. Looking at things, I'll have to think about what I'm

I've already finished the Promptcast, but editing has to happen tomorrow. Julie's gone to bed.
My PLN to work on one such chapter at the Physio was foiled by No Battery. Darnit. I'll have to do that later in the day.
But first, the daily tale.

On the plus side, I did finally get to make an attempt at Centaur Porridge. Without cloves, because my cloves got chucked.
When I go shopping (likely tomorrow) I shall pick up some cloves, as well as apples, to try perfecting the recipe. Maybe. I made way too much this time and I

I am endeavouring to focus on today's tale, but I have friends chatting with me on Discord and my lovelies relaying shit into the house.
It's not looking good for story progress. I am DISTRACTED-distracted.
But there will be a daily tale.
Eventually.

I have fed the birds, the cats, and myself (yay). And helped out a friend with their writing.
The Promptcast is doing Booked For Friday, so I'm moderating over there. THEN I get on with the daily tale. If I'm not delayed by Other Stuff(tm).
I'm probably going

There's talk of renting a pod to transport the difficult stuff, but I have no idea if or when that is going to be a thing.
My lovelies are spending a lot of their time unfucking the place they're vacating now, as that's a smidgeon more urgent than

It's going to be an expensive week, and not just because of the meds. We need to stock up on this, that, the other, and mandatory mealworms for the Magpie Mafia.
They have Butcher Bird goons, now. Word has got out that we are soft touches. Now whenever I step

Bad news - Miss Chaos found the steak I was planning to have for breakfast and helped herself.
So my day was off to a fantastic start with having to thaw a frozen steak. Whilst also feeding the cats, helping my lovelies sort out stuff from the spare room days after I wanted the help.
On the other hand, the spare room is clean

(smol break while I did stuff and things)
I have successfully:
Yes, I once more must forge out into the wilderness of Shopping and get supplies for my little darlings.
I also have the rest of the nonsense stored in the spare room to unfuck.
I have no idea if I can do all that, the daily tale, and finishing off my Promptcast entry today. I'll see what can be done with the spoons I have.
Time management and spoons management is a thing that must also be juggled.
I have until 10
