Weeknight Writers

I'm reading World War Z by Max Brooks as I wanted something with short chapters. It's so much better than the movie!

Awesome!!

I mean, people really don't know how to talk about suicide so I could see it being said that way in IRL conversation when someone's feeling really awkward/trying to find the right words

Feels weird in a written space, though, where there's been plenty of time to think through the wording

I like content warnings, but I do not like "die by suicide" phrasing >.<

That's a big project!

I'm re-reading the Buddenbrooks by Thomas Mann. But I'm considering pausing it and to finally start the big project of reading all his diaries in order and his books when they fit the dates.

Awesome!!! This reminds me, I really need to find my ereader and line things up for when I finish my current paperback read...

I'm currently reading The Deer and the Dragon by CJ Piper and loving it!

Excellent!

Fiero the magnificent among the flowers

I will never say no to pet photos

I know it’s late, but I can’t resist sharing photos!

The black cat is Raven.
The gray tuxedo is Prospero.
The white cat is Persephone.
And last but not least, the tortoise is Jojo.

Yeah, kittens are a LOT

I love him so much!!

Good morning! We love talking about reading almost as much as we love talking about writing. So, tell us: what are you reading this week?

Yeah, I was thrilled! Even though it did make selection difficult

She's beautiful!

Editing it was amazing! The only really difficult part was that I got enough incredible submissions that I absolutely could've made two anthologies

Black dog, very sleepy on the couch

Have a wild mix of Galli in all sorts of situations.

Duncan is no longer with us, but this is one of my favorite pics of him helping me make cookies.

Caught the puppy blepping on the couch the other day

Not a pet, per se, but this little fella visits my place pretty regularly.

Kenobi - cute Cavalier King Charles puppy - snoozing on a fleece blanket, almost rotated onto his back.

What I wish I was doing...

a fluffy white cat with a dark tail, perched on the shelf of a very full bookcase

Lady Annabelle Blue does not enjoy Mondays, but she DOES enjoy my bookcases!
