RCC Update for July

RCC Update–interim–July 2013
I am disappointed that roughly two weeks have gone by since my last update, when I had intended to make weekly updates. Oh … d**n … I just blew Goal #1 … again 😦 My Goals (1) Get off my own back. Yadda yadda. They’ll find a cure for the […]

The Great Big Blue
It’s been a week since I submitted my final word count to Camp NaNoWriMo and my brain still feels as empty as this great expanse of sky. I’ve written little since: mostly comments, an attempt at poetry during a downturn in my mood, and the ubiquitous note-keeping I do at […]
