How LGBTQ Victims Were Erased From Holocaust History
"For the queer survivors of Nazi oppression, 1945 did not bring about any kind of liberation"
After the Nazi death camps were liberated, the prisoners with pink triangles were sent to prison because being queer was a crime. History books don't mention this. Our history has always been erased, then we are told queerness is a modern trend. #queer #lgbt #civilrights #pride #lesbian #trans #gay

I still use an old 2007 version of Word. Just didn't like the idea of my work being dependent on Chrome, though I do keep copies on my Google drive as backup.

Today all my self-doubts tell me I'm wasting my time trying to write anything at all. All this effort is foolish, it says, and no redemption can be found for one so delusional.
"Feelings aren't fact," says my trembling resistance. "Wait a day."

The phrase "one fell swoop" is first found in MacBeth. Macduff finds out his family is dead, comparing their murders to a hawk taking all hatchling from a nest in one fell swoop. Here, FELL means terrible or murderous.

John Davis (1550–1605) was a key navigator on English ships of discovery under Queen Elizabeth. He died in the Pacific at the hands of Japanese pirates. In 1597, he authored THE SEAMANS SECRETS on great-circle navigation.

Lions, Tigers, and Bears in the Tower of London - Oh My! - Margo Lestz - The Curious Rambler
For about 600 years the Tower of London was home to the royal menagerie: Lions, tigers, bears, kangaroos, and many other animals lived there...Continue reading
The Tower of London housed exotic animals in the Lion Tower, which James I remodeled to better watch lion-baiting. He pitted mastiffs against lions, one of which always bore the king's name. If that lion died in battle, it was seen as a bad omen for the king. #histfic #writingcommunity #queerwriters

In light of the upcoming holidays, writers, it may be of use to you to know that 'ebrious' and 'inebrious' both mean 'drunk.'

Lonesome Dove. I love westerns, and the relationship between Gus McCrae and Woodrow Call just sends me.

I get it though. 😇 There's something meditative about piecing quilts. For me, anyway.

As an editor, I might suggest a different word to end that post. One like: obsessed, fanatical, fixated, rapt. Perhaps spellbound.

Where do you fall on the alignment chart?
I'm a very Lawful Plantser! OMG--totally have an Excel sheet with outline of chapters and beats, which I edit freely. Outline is a jungle gym, and I'm a monkey swinging and playing on it.

A view from my apartment balcony showing snow-covered parking lot and whiteout conditions.
Whiteout conditions in northeast Ohio this morning. Grateful for the ability to work remotely on days like this!

oriented. I don't want to be that, but also don't want to let the group get off track. I guess I'll just be anxious about it while longer! 😀

Yeah, that's what I'm going for. I wonder how much policing I'm going to need to do at the outset. First meeting is in Jan, and I'm excited, overwhelmed, and a little scared tbh. I've been to other groups where the organizer turned it into [the Organizer]'s Show instead of something more group
