Unfortunately I couldn’t get Kaylirr’s Yin and Yang to a place where I was happy enough with it to post it. Instead have this post about why my mental health is spaghetti. I don’t know about you guys, but I had almost convinced myself that 2021 was going to be a better year than 2020 … Continue reading Mental health in 2021

Now we’re stressed out
2020 was a tough year, and with the way 2021 is shaping up to be, it’s not going to be a big improvement any time soon.

I explained part of the reason in my about page already, but it is an excuse for me to write something in a short time, and then stop messing with it. I’m a perfectionist … Continue reading On writing my first short story.
