Just a reminder that there will be a writing group thread on Sunday (Dec 4) at 12:30 EST/9:30 PST. For now we are going to talk process, resources and support. We’ll revisit sharing pieces after the new year.
See you there!
Also: There will be no recipe threads for a while, but I’ll probably put together some holiday stuff later in the month. My focus is usually around Christmas stuff, but if anyone wants to send me recipes and info on different holiday celebrations, please do. I would love to post about that – include photos!

I’m still working on my novel that will offend everyone in the world.
General Baud and the war on Christmas will feature prominently.

I’ll try to remember to get up on time here on the West Coast. Like everyone else, I haven’t been sleeping well.
I can tell you guys more about the really snarky book I read for research that was written around 1830 by Anthony Trollope’s mom Frances, who was an author in her own right.
Greg
I are excited.

Will be there!
jacy

I’ve sent my daughter a link to this post, hoping that she’ll join you all!

Woot! I’m still doing the framework for the upcoming book (knowing that once it starts it must come out with a chapter every Monday). Also, the video of a con panel I did (with a awesome millenial kid) on dialogue, came out. So I can link that (actually I’ve got a fair bit of stuff like that out there)

looks like I’ll have to kiss it in real time – wouldn’t you know, this is the one week we’re going to go hunting on Sunday instead of Saturday! But I look forward to reading everyone’s thoughts!

@Mnemosyne: ? What insomnia epidemic? I missed that post. Is flu/cold keeping you up? I hope you get some rest soon!
Pogonip
@PaulWartenberg2016: Yeah? Well, same to you, buddy!

@Pogonip:
No, it’s the insomnia epidemic of waking up at 3 am with the realization that we just elected a fucking white supremacist to be our president.
But also it’s the Santa Ana winds stirring up a lot of junk in the air and giving me a stuffy nose. I probably need to buy some distilled water and use my neti pot to clear it out.

@Mnemosyne: Yes, there’s a lot of that going around. (The nazi-induced existential dread insomnia, that is). I spent a relaxing three hours from 2:00 to 5:00 this morning wide awake.

Hooray! Thank you!

I’ll have to check back. That’s 2:30am my time, so I doubt I’ll be able to attend live. Very excited to see this group get off the ground.
