The relationship between the reader and the writer has been much on my mind lately, and how much I want to write something that speaks to another's soul — their own, individual soul. Grateful to the writers (and David Bowie) who've done that to me.

I have made good use of my snow days. Another round of deep edits on the big project. A couple story submissions. Short story edits. I'm tired. A little bit discouraged once in a while. But determined.

I can't listen to anything music with lyrics when writing. What do y'all listen to? I kinda hate Spotify but I follow a couple playlists. Mostly Dark Academia and Victorian Gothic and this one that is house music for people who can't focus.

My take on "write what you know." Experience includes emotional events. Do you know what it's like to feel alien in your family? Have you been overwhelmed with love for your child? Or the thrill of accomplishing a challenge? "What you know" isn't limited to geography and your position in life.
