It turns out, a workshop with other writers was just what my manuscript needed after hitting multiple structural roadblocks. www.lacywriteswords.com/blog/manuscr...

ambushing ankles from under chairs, stealing kibble, and being carried around like a baby. i watch you sit at the window, the contented rise and fall of your full, soft gray sides reassures me this cat is happily home.
