Happy Monday, Aledan Merfolk! We’re officially in the warm summer months here on the SC coast, so you can expect CotW to show up on Mondays when I’m busy at the pool or beach (and by “busy” I mean “doing nothing at all”). We’re still on the merpony kick around here because a) merponies are

Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! It’s been another wild week around here. As some of you already know, my dad started chemo this week and I had a little trouble wrapping my head around it at the beginning of the week. And then I came home on Tuesday to a living room full of dog poo.

3 Comments / Grab Bag, Updates / Rebecca Enzor

Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! This past week has been extremely challenging, emotionally, so once again I’ve gotten barely anything done as far as writing goes.
