If that fails, I'll look at what needs to change right before I got stuck. If that fails, I'll skip ahead and fill in the blanks later. If THAT fails, I'll work on something else. And if that fails, it's probably time to take a walk or a nap and come back with fresh eyes. (less)

"If the muse is late for work, start without her."
Peter S. Beagle, quoting his Uncle Raphael
Writing is work, and like any other kind of job, the most important thing is showing up regularly.
Ritualize it with your special mug and your magic pen, set an interval timer that reminds you that you should be writing and stretching, put it in your calendar as an unbreakable date- just show up as often as possible so the muse knows where to find you. (less)

Blast from the past I never knew I didn’t want. I get why it was popular enough for a movie that made it more popular. It doesn’t give me anything to gush or rage about. It simply is and now I am done with it.

I was torn between 3 and 4 stars but the

I wasn’t really interested and only learned what it is even actually “about” when I was halfway through and one friend of mine told another friend. The writing acknowledges and plays with the language of the place and time without trying to look or s ...more

A solid portion of this book is pretty okay. Not good or great. It suggests a formula for tea (with a 2:1:1 ratio for herbs) then list a few examples that not only do not follow the formula, but don’t include more than one herb (for example apples an ...more

It was mostly okay. A lot of the book was just records of medical things that were written down at the time. Some things written after the time. If that’s what the book was I’d have rated it higher. The original source material is fascinating and at ...more

This book is a great time full of monsters. The lore is great, the complexity of monsters, bad guys, and the good guys is great. There is no romance but somehow I have never rooted for a human/monster romance more. In truth… I’m not even 100% if one ...more
