Story roundup? How can that be? Wasn't I on an at-home writing retreat all week?
Yes - but not all stories post the same day. The ones featured today ran over last week, when I was already mind-deep into the nineteenth century.
Not much has changed from yesterday's retreat update, except that I only have a chapter and a half to finish of an extremely rough draft of The Phoenix, which I really hope I get done today as I have a full list for Saturday and Sunday.
It probably doesn't sound like a lot, but I've been dancing around (i.e. avoiding and skipping over) one particularly troublesome chapter, hoping the muse would kick in eventually (It hasn't).
So...yeah.
Below, you will find all the places I currently hang out on social media.
Below that, are the stories. Pick and choose what interests you. Of course, I hope they all interest you.
Have a great Friday!
