I love fresh food from my* very own garden
*okay, it's Potassium's garden but I help!
I love that point when editing that you fall so deeply into the story that you forget you're supposed to be editing at all

Pictured: an unidentified bone we found today (probably not human), a rusted shovel in the woods (definitely not human), and some black raspberries (just for fun). Not pictured: the .22 bullet that now has my fingerprints on it.
03.06.2025 21:52 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Or am I making sure my neighbors are used to seeing me carrying my trash bag to pick up bottles all the time, so they don't think anything of it when I go back in the light of day to clean up any evidence I might have left behind after I murdered someone in the woods last night?
03.06.2025 21:52 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0As a mystery writer, I have to wonder - am I inadvertently cleaning up someone's crime scene?
03.06.2025 21:52 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0When I take the dog for a walk in the boonies, I pick up any trash I find. It's mostly beer bottles and cigarettes (covered in DNA!) or fast-food receipts and junk mail (with names on them!). Today, I also found a few dozen old pennies, a broken mirror, a ponytail holder, and an unspent bullet.
