lilacs, tulips, and phlox (oh my!)

Some of you may know I’m writing a novel. I’ve been writing it for a very long time, very slowly. This year I’d love nothing more than to get it in front of some agents, so I am trying my best to write a little faster.

Recommended Reading:
A book. Just… any book. Apparently an increasing number of young people, including elite college students, are simply not reading books these days because they’re being taught less in schools. That’s sad! Books are fun! Go on a date with yourself to the public library and read a book, you will enjoy yourself. If you don’t like that one, try a different one! There are a lot of them out there!
If you cannot bear to tear your eyes away from your computer or phone screen, this was good: Fighting the power (and fighting burnout) isn’t a marathon or a sprint. It’s strength training.
